krushgroove posted:My proposal for new Oath avatars is for every month to offer one or two avatars to Oathers who complete their Oaths (and have opted in to get an avatar, because many people like their avatars), and for an avatartist (see what I did there?) to give them an Oathkeeper avatar. This could be Pierre (whose avatars you can see in this very thread), SRM (he of Dawn of Awesome fame), grassy gnoll or anyone else handy with Photoshop and armed with a... <snip> I can get behind this, my current avatar was from the original oath thread, though I can't remember who the artist was (give me a break, it was like 6 years ago!)

Oath Complete I think I figured out a better lighting etc. set up so my pics don't suck like usual, next step is to get a better backdrop instead of the cheap rear end lightbox I've been using.    My angry, scowly white Dragon - my spray undercoat went on weird and ended up quite fuzzy but I think it's worked out OK as ice crystals embedded in the scales etc.   A Squad of hardy Dwarf Adventurers, partners to my existing Frostgrave warband from last season. Scroll dude would make a good Sigilist if I ever tire of Enchanting.  A quick scene I threw together to show off the rough scale of the Dragon. Unpainted ruins from Renedra.  Spring Cleaning complete!

I picked up some more guild ball minis this week and I can't decide whether to work on them this weekend (but probably not finish them, so no oathing) or wait until the start of next month so I can oath them . Of course, I could just work on them this weekend and grab some more minis or dig out some of my old high elves or something for next month...

(Not to mention Diablo 3.) I oathed 30 marines, dread, five termies, terminator captain, chaplain (battle Of calth basically,) a converted Ork plane, four assassins, and the 30th anniversary marine. All of it is done except the plane, c'mon son! Put down the games for one evening!!!

Why, my great grandfather huffed pine resin and rusty nails, back in the day, and this copier toner has given me only a few extra lymphoblasts, tops. Actual content: how much lead time do we need between posting a properly time-stamped image from a few days ago and a complete oath?

Truth be told it's gonna be close for me, I wanna go overboard on the plane with the lizardmen pilot. I might not finish myself! I just wanted to be encouraging, if new dad can learn to paint with his feet so he can coddle the newborn, new games can be set down for a few hours to slap paint on primer. Remember there's no quality control, you just gotta finish!

Oath Complete! Technical Challenge: Dragon I should've taken photos of my progress, because I screwed these guys up pretty bad. Ended up having to strip the paint, remove the wings, apply acetone to clean up the old superglue, and completely start over from scratch.  Here is a photo of them contesting a zone with the soon to be dead Saxon Orrik. I'd also like to claim the following: Monster MAY-HEM! They're multiplying! They're destroying our village!

Its been almost a year since I put paint to model, even longer since I finished one. Not pictured are a few more duders I finished but started before May.

Krushgroove will tell you if something's wrong and ask for new pictures of whatever your model looks like now, but you don't have to wait for acceptance after you've posted your oath.

Oath complete!     These are fantasy/mythology so I did the Theme Challenge. Two giants and Fenrir, who at some point is so big that his lower jaw scrapes the ground and his upper jaw touches the sky, gets me Monster MAY-HEM! with They're multiplying! on top. I'm also going for WIP Photos:  Everything primed grey, then highlighted to almost white. Then all skin got a turquoise wash.  Recesses gets some blue ink, deep recesses and around the fur gets some purple ink.  Skin brought back up to a very light grey.  Fur, rocks, nails, teeth and tongue painted. Arm rings painted brown for the coming gold. Only snow, gold and the base is left to do. Oh right, I also did Spring Cleaning: Electric Hobo posted:Before: Electric Hobo fucked around with this message at 14:24 on May 28, 2016 |

Ok so I've really wanted to do this for a long time and oathed something a few months ago and never even started it and because of life haven't painted in months. Sooo I have an absolutely huge lot of figs to paint for a friend and am overwhelmed so in the spirit of eating elephants I figured I'll try to add some incentive. I know it's at the very end of the month but maybe this will put some pressure on me to get poo poo done. Without further adieu: I Shachi hereby oath not one but TWO full units of Convergence of Cyriss Obstructors (20 models Warmachine) I'm really probably biting off more than I can chew but I've got a 4 day weekend coming up and waddaya know I got like 4 days to do it. The colored bits on the bases are cut up credit cards as basing props. Otherwise they are totally unprimed.
