Leperflesh posted:*conversion stuff* Welp, I think you can remove me from that list. The model was already converted when I made my oath, so I don't have any conversion WIP photos. I'll be sure to take pictures while converting next time. I still have a Vendetta and it's not gonna build itself. Lord Hypnostache fucked around with this message at 09:12 on May 26, 2013 |

OATH COMPLETE! This was literally the last evening in this month that I have any time to paint anything, and just as I finished taking pictures I started having computer troubles, I had to jump through so many hoops to upload these pictures   I'm using these guys as Penal Legionnaires in my Cadian army. In case anyone is interested, the Warden's head and right arm are from Hellhound commander, other parts are from Cadian HQ sprue. I'd like to enter these as a Themed group. Detective's journal  Painting the uniforms with Kommando Khaki over Bestial Brown  My army's main colors are Kommando Khaki and Dark Angels Green, with Scorched Brown details. I wanted these guys to have a more rundown appearance and color scheme than the rest of the army, so I used more brown.  When I paint, I can't focus on too many details at once, so up until the previous picture I painted all the models at thee same time. In this picture I have painted the details one model at a time. After this I inked and based all the models simultaneously again.  Basing. I've snatched some sand from a nearby playground, I find real sand works better for basing than fake sand and is a lot cheaper. These are now also the first guys in my army to be based. Just 60 more to go

Well, I was considering for a long while wether I should do an oath this month or not, seeing that I'll be abroad for most of this month. Then I realized that from a pure points perspective, making an oath, even though I'll probably fail it, is worth more points than not making one at all. With that in mind I, Lord Hypnostache, oath to paint this one veteran guardsman with a plasmagun, made by GW.

With that in mind I went and did a bad thing, I didn't even wait for an approval before announcing that OATH COMPLETE  I'm also claiming Speed painting, Detektuv's Journal and Double the Fun! Here's a close up of the battle damage. Since he's using a plasmagun prone to overheating, I wanted his arm to look it's been badly burned. I couldn't get the sleeve to look as scorched as I wanted to, but I'm really pleased with the skin. I just basically had no plans and just experimented, and turns out a little red wash gives that nice pinkish scar tissue look.

Since I finished only one model last month, time to step it up a bit... I, Lord Hypnostache, oath to paint the following in the month of July: 1 Hellhound, 1 Cyber Mastiff, 1 Chosen Chaos Space Marine, 8 Imperial Guard veterans, 1 Banner/Objective marker, 1 Commissar and one Vendetta. EDIT: Oh, everything is made by Games Workshop. Forgot to mention that.   That's the body I'm using as a base when converting the Commissar, and those Valkyrie flier bits will be the majority of a Vendetta flier. I haven't chosen/scavenged all the bits I'm going to need for those two, so is it okay if I take WIP pictures as I build them to show the parts used? Also, two questions just to clarify I've understood this months oath. To complete the oath, I will have to cut something, just swapping parts is not enough, right? And I must take photos before and after cutting, a photo of an uncut model for comparison is not enough, correct? Lord Hypnostache fucked around with this message at 01:14 on Jul 4, 2013 |

Alright, thanks for the clarification. RE Oath Repentance: I like the idea of making a shame model to repent, it could lead to some funny and/or awesome conversions and paintjobs. And giving a chance to regain lost points seems fair, this thread is all about getting stuff done.

This month I feel like I've bit more than I can chew and I'm getting real tired of painting Imperial Guard. Also Steam Summer Sales have been detrimental to my painting time. But I wont throw the towel yet!

OATH COMPLETELord Hypnostache posted:Cutting and swapping has been done. And here's a finished Cut'n'swap Commissar for this months journal  I'm claiming Fly your flag for the banner  Also these are the first vehicles I've painted in 15 or so years, and probably 3rd and 4th vehicle I've painted ever. They're not special, but I feel proud of them.  And these veterans are getting a bit of Background. They are also a Themed group  quote:"Let me tell you a little something about the squad I work with. We've been serving in this regiment longer than anybody else, and that means we've each earned a nickname and the right to use it. We're the toughest SOBs around here, and I don't mean Sisters of Battle.

Leperflesh posted:We decided Space Hulk minis count as 40k because you can use them for 40k, but I'm not sure if Necromunda models could be used in 40k (like, is there a ganger unit in imperial guard armies or something?) Necromunda could handily be used as IG Penal Legion. I use Necromunda Redemptionists as Chaos Cultists and am planning on using Enforcers as Storm Troopers. So yes, Necromunda can be used in 40k.

I am Nyzart the Eternal, who is definately a different person from this Trazyn and is most certainly not Trazyn in disguise.

Silly me, almost started to paint before I oathed anything I, Lord Hypnostache, against my better judgment, oath these 5 Deathmarks and 3 Canoptek Wraiths. Both from GW 28mm.  Now that I'm checking the photo I noticed that some color is showing through from couple of bases. I tried something, didn't work out and primed over it. I hope this is okay, since none of that is going to be visible on the finished models.

Oath Complete! Crappy phone camera butchered the paintjob, but these are getting used in a tournament soon and I just wanted to get this stuff done fast.  The journal is the glowing eye on one of the wraiths I was thinking of doing the parts list for this one, but I don't have time to write it up right now. Is it okay if I edit it in in a couple of days?

Brock Samsonite posted:Not to beat a dead horse as I'm sure there's tons of people waiting on their own prizes, but has anyone gotten anything from Games & Gears? I haven't heard a thing from anyone (I could desperately use some new brushes too). I haven't received my brush yet, but I understand Krushgroove is paying for the shipment from his own pocket, so I'm content to wait until the end of season to see if I end up winning something else to ship combined. A question about Box art bonus, does it have to be official art that's currently in use? I was considering painting a few relictors, as seen here. Those pictures are from old White Dwarves/Codices but they aren't used in any current GW media.
