Oath Complete! The Detektuv’s Jurnal I've never painted horses before so I started out with a few test colors. Apple Barrel Chocolate Bar is a reddish brown I use a lot for dirt and I thought it would be good for horses. Plus I wanted a few lighter ones that were cinnamon and then one black horse.  I then experimented with washing them using strong tone for the dark brown (chocolate bar), light tone for the cinnamon, and dark tone for the black that had a dark grey highlight applied first.  Usually I do base colors (pic 1) and then slop a heap of strong tone on the whole thing which is really shiny because it's not quite dry (pic 2). I'm still experimenting though. My goblin figures seem to look good with a bright highlight after the strong tone wash, gives them sort of a cell shaded look. Even just a bright dab of green on their head looks good at tabletop height and makes such small miniatures really pop in their tight ranks. I'm not sure I want to do that with these guys, might decide they need brighter helmets. Also, that spear looks really big in the close up photo but looks pretty good down on the table.   Here they are all done attacking some orcs! These aren't the brightly colored goblins I mentioned earlier but some darker toned black orcs but I think they got a little to dark. Might have to do more highlighting all around but sometimes I like them sometimes not. Depends on lighting and my mood.  Parts List From left to right: cinnamon, chocolate bar, green isle (capes), fresh cut grass (shields), bark brown, spice brown, country maple, suede, white, basic fleshtone, cocoa, walnut. I also used the golden yellow towards the back.  Army Painter washes are really handy.  I use washers for my bases and Aleene's tacky glue to apply red lizard sand from the pet store which are then painted with Apple Barrel chocolate bar and a dry brush of Apple Barrel Nutmeg with some white added to taste. The flock is sawdust mixed with grass green from liquitex basics line plus a few flakes from another color I can't remember. Hand me my bottle because Awwww, a BABY! 10mm is a fun scale to work in because it is big enough for some nice details but you can still get that army scale feel and all with out breaking the bank.

Illudere posted:I, Illudere, oath 10 Gondorian Spearmen in 10mm from Copplestone Castings. Journal - I decided to change the spearmen to swordmen. I thought, "How hard could making a sword out of green stuff be? It's like a flat stick." It didn't turn out well so I decided to make a mold with sculpey using a sword cut from a warmaster figure and then cast the swords in sculpey.    Oath Complete

Oath Complete  Sorry my name text isn't very clear though it looked fine before I uploaded it. Also didn't attempt the journal. Painting these larger models is much tougher than my little 10mm guys.

Oops the lighting was even worse than I thought but what with it being amnesty month and all hopefully its alright? It's also a very large picture if you view it on a pc at full resolution. Does nudity not need to be nws'd in this forum? Thinking more of the finished model than retroactively.

I, Illudere, oath Mia Hartstorm and mount from Reaper miniatures in 28mm plus an archery target.  I also oath a Save Da Whales oath of fifteen elvish stag riders. Link: http://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=3547161&userid=73175#post422212464  The Save Da Whale rules seem to imply that regular oath complete photos and save da whale oath complete photos need world time server in the photo. Is that correct? Those stag riders took way to long to finish.

Leperflesh posted:That's correct. Are those guys done now? If not, just include them in your December Oath Complete post, but clearly labeled as for Whales and with the link to the original (just as you've done here). They are done! krushgroove posted:
I thought it just needed to be shown to be unpainted in December.  I don't currently have the model it has gone out as a Christmas present (yay for deadlines). Oh, well, I'll share the completed pics just to show them off. Edit: December Oath Complete!  This one has the target in focus:

Wow, I can see why it took some time to get that written up. I like the proportions of the D&D minis in option C and they are as old as I am, which is fun. That giant snake in set D is cool. I think the minis in option A look the most fun to paint with some good variety and the female giant #2 in that set is my favorite mini out of all the options so I'll choose option A!
