Electric Hobo: Oct 22, 2008; What a view!; Grimey Drawer

Season 5 was the first time I oathed, and painted anything really, and I focused on painting a lot of stuff to get the basics down. Most of it looked passable, but it was nice to see my progress through the season. Last season I tried to focus more on technique, and I actually managed to get a few judge awarded point! That felt pretty drat good, seeing that I really was getting better and that someone else actually though that my work didn't look like complete crap.
Anyway, I'm here again.

For the season's first oath, I, Electric Hobo, oath the Frost Giant and Fenrir. From Blood Rage by CMoN.

And I started out by doing some much needed spring cleaning.

After:

Much better!

I wanted to oath my necron scythe but one of the guns that goes on the underside has been lost somewhere in my house move. Can I oath it with a gun missing? Gonna paint it so it's been shot off.

Sure. You can oath pretty much whatever you want so go nuts.

Just paint it! 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.

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:

Ok, so no reason to do both technical challenges, points are awarded the same either way.

Yes. BUT! There are also the judge awarded points. There's an extra point on the line for best challenge paint job from each judge. They might love you if you do both. Or they might hate you! Who knows? Paint what you feel like

And is the Germ oath an official part of the oath thread, as in additional points are rewarded for completing the challenge, or is it just its own stand-alone thing?

Germ and liljonas are just a good guys:

Germ posted:

I was planning on sponsoring such a thing already, so....

Would July-ke to paint some terrain, my Lord?

For the month of July, include some terrain in your oath to get entered into a special prize drawing. Any scale will do, but it should be suitable terrain, not just a scenic objective marker, unit filler, or the like. You can gain multiple entries in the drawing (up to 4 including the original entry) by:

Epic: Painting a "sufficiently epic" amount of terrain. This could be a single large, complicated piece, or a number of smaller pieces that go together. One huge castle. A village. A table's worth of terrain. If you think what you did was epic, say so. If I agree, you'll get a bonus entry.

Picture Time: Take a photo of your terrain being used in a game, or as part of a scene with other miniatures you have painted for another bonus entry.

Rules Lawyer: Write a short set of rules for a terrain feature you oathed. The rules can be for any system, but should allow you to use a piece of terrain you painted in a unique way during a game. Toxic sludge that emits poisonous fumes? Tavern that can distract nearby troops with promises of ale?

The winner of the prize draw will get a selection of resin terrain from Worldsmith Industries. I'll work out with the winner the specifics of what they want, but expect something in the range of $75 worth of terrain. Anything on the we store would be fair game, as would anything I've prototyped but is not yet available for public sale.

lilljonas posted:

Now, I'm all about paying it forward. So, I'll be throwing my hat in for Garm's awesome terrain month:

My hobby side-project, Mura Miniatures, will also add prize support to the July terrain bonanza. If you don't win Garm's prize, you'll get a chance at a runner-up prize:

A gift voucher for your online hobby store of choice, at the value of 20 USD

or

A custom made piece of terrain, made by myself, in whatever scale and theme you want

Note that I'm not really a sci-fi gamer, so I have limited experience with making sci-fi stuff, but I'll give it a shot if you want. The rules for qualifying are exactly the same, except that the first prize winner is not eligible for the runner-up draw.

It's an extra mini contest like Zark's Monster Mayhem last month. No extra points. Don't know how official anything is in here, you'd probably have to wait for Krushgroove or Zark to answer that.

So goons! I oathed that I wouldn't by anything unplanned until I finished my Tyranids... and I bought some Warmachine models. To be fair, I needed the foam inserts for conversion work, but that is just an excuse.

So what should my punishment be? I'm thinking of donating some MKIII starter sets to the thread for the grand prize pools. Granted, those won't be out for a while and it looks like they might have some quantity issues... but there it is.

Loving those boats and sea serpent BTW, that game's gonna look kicking rad once you've finished it all.

Electric Hobo: Oct 22, 2008; What a view!; Grimey Drawer

I might be going rogue here, but I've noticed quite a few oathers are making or completing oaths that don't really adhere to the rules. While krushgroove is a good guy, and will let a lot of mistakes slide, It'll still make everything flow easier for everybody if it's done like this:

krushgroove posted:

HOW TO OATH YOUR MODELS

How to Oath your model:
1. You can post your Oath at ANY TIME of the month! However, your finished Oath must be posted by the deadline: midnight *AMERICAN SAMOAN TIME* (not Samoa! CLICK HERE to see the deadline for Oathing and Oath Completion

2. Your model must be photographed out of its package and in one of these states:
2a. still on sprue, off the sprue and unassembled, partially assembled or fully assembled
2b. unpainted, primed or basecoated in a SINGLE color
2c. zenithal priming IS allowed, however pre-shading or picking out details is NOT allowed**

3. Go to http://www.worldtimeserver.com/ on your computer/tablet/phone, select AMERICAN SAMOAN TIME (or click this link) and take a picture of the oath model(s) beside the date and time on the screen. The time, date and location should be readable and the model should be recognizable. It’s hard to get everything in focus, but we must be able to count the models and if it's in multiple pieces we must be able to see all the parts of the model. Make sure the screen text (date and time) is READABLE and IN FOCUS before uploading your picture.

4. Upload your picture to http://www.imgur.com or any other publicly accessible photo-hosting site and copy the BB code link into your Oath post. (note: you can add your name to your Oath picture, but it isn't necessary)

5. Please also indicate what scale and brand of your figure(s) - this allows us to give helpful statistics to our prize sponsors.

6. Hit the ‘Reply’ link and put something like ‘I, [yourname], Oath that I will paint this [model name]’ - make sure this text is in BOLD so new Oaths are easy to find.

7. Hit the ‘submit’ button and get started painting! If you have any doubts about your Oath being accepted, wait until krushgroove approves it, or at least 24-48 hrs before starting to paint it.

8. Once your Oath is approved, your Oath is LOCKED IN and cannot be changed, only added to (see Oath Additions, below).

9. CLICK HERE to see the deadline for Oathing and Oath Completion

*Why American Samoa? Because it gives everyone the opportunity to paint until late at night on the last day of the month (unless you are living right on the International Date Line) rather than having to finish in the morning or afternoon of the last day, which doesn't really work out well if you have a normal school/work day.
**zenithal priming: If you are in doubt, take a picture before you have primed the model (the safest and easiest option), or post a picture of your zenithal-primed model and ask. Pre-shading, which is not allowed for Oathing examples include panel lining on vehicles or shading on muscles, wings, etc. Anything can be done to the models after Oathing, of course.

Here's an example of an oath post, using my own oath:

Electric Hobo posted:

For June, I, Electric Hobo, oath the Wolfman, the Dwarf Chieftain, the Darkelf, the Valkyrie, the Soldier of Hel and the V�lur Witch. From Blood Rage by CMoN.

Just to make it perfectly clear: You don't need your username in your oath picture and you don't need to say which achievements you're going for! It's obviously nice that you have a plan for your model, but you don't have to tells us in advance.

krushgroove posted:

Completing your Oath
1. Your Oath is 'complete' when YOU are happy with the paint job you've done. It doesn't need to be a masterpiece, just 'finished'. If you just want to get models painted for a board game (like Zombicide) you can do a quick basecoat + wash job and call them finished, or you can go all the way and do your absolute best. It's your choice.

2. Make sure you are posting before the end of the calendar month - remember we’re using *AMERICAN* SAMOAN TIME! CLICK HERE to see the deadline for Oath Completion

3. Don't miss out on the scoring! YOU MUST INCLUDE YOUR USERNAME IN THE PICTURES YOU POST TO EARN POINTS. This is very easy: simply write your username on a piece of paper and make sure your name is clearly visible and readable in your photo. You can also add in your name with photo-editing software (online or otherwise). PLEASE NOTE that if you take lots of pictures of your model(s), it helps everyone if you include your username in every photo, especially if you finished several models or have different backgrounds in your photos. IF YOU DO NOT INCLUDE YOUR USERNAME YOU WILL NOT EARN POINTS. If you're only participating to paint your stuff and/or win monthly/quarterly prizes, you'll still be eligible for those but you WILL NOT be earning easy points for the season-ending points totals.

4. Post ‘Oath Complete!’ with a picture your finished model or group (if you're posting multiple pictures, try to use the [timg] tag instead of the [img] tag so they don't take up huge amounts of screen space) - see below for where to get free image hosting and how to post the images

5. If you did either of the monthly Challenge, TELL US which one in bold

6. If you are claiming any Achievements , TELL US which one in bold and post whatever is relevant for that bonus

7. If you did anything else that should earn you bonus points, TELL US which one in bold

8. (Optional) Copy your post to the Miniatures Painting Thread and whatever other thread your fellow gamers post in (D&D, Malifaux, Battletech, Historicals, etc.) and encourage them to play, too!

Again, an example using my own posts:

Electric Hobo posted:

Oath complete!

*a bunch of pictures cut out*

I did the technical challenge with lots of skin on the wolfman and the witch, and I did the Box art achievement on the wolfman.

The important thing here is really the layout which makes it easy for Zark to spot so he can update the spreadsheet.

It was meant as a purely informative post. There are a lot of new oathers, and I know that not everybody wants to read the OP (I didn't when I started out), so I figured it would be a good idea to bring the rules up front. It would suck if someone lost points or prizes because of some rule they weren't aware of.

Clarification on the challenge, can we paint a source of glowing heat (fire, molten metal, etc.) even if we don't do proper OSL?

The oath thread is usually super chill and cool about stuff like this but I figure it doesn't hurt to make sure.

In this case I'm pretty sure that yes can. OSL is only part of the technical challenge, ao everything else goes under the theme challenge.

Hey Zark, something look odd in the spreadsheet. On row 7, 20, 30, 31, 40 and 107 for August the background colors hasn't changed to green and the index for prize drawing hasn't updated, even though you have updated with the complete oath.

Electric Hobo: Oct 22, 2008; What a view!; Grimey Drawer

Oath complete!

Did the technical challenge on the cyborg and #SquadGoals with all the Blood Rage guys.
Cyborgs are still cyberpunk, right? Or has it turned into gluing a motherboard onto a tophat? Anyway Punks love Dick, and I even found two lines that was deleted from the original print of A Scanner Darkly for that extra point:
"Arctor finally had two braincells click together at Thanksgiving and managed to pass a blue flower to one of the undercover agents at New Path.
So they sent in the cyborgs to deal with the farms."
~Fin~

This time I'm sure to win that Aetherium set, which is good, 'cause I really want a copy :toot:

I should probably oath something and work through the painting fatigue I built up last month.

For October, I, Electric Hobo, oath the first player token, the saga token and the doom token from Blood Rage. Still by CMoN.
