Apologies for the slightly-too-dark photos this month. Thought I had more light than I actually did.

Unto my oath, because no bad idea deserves to go unattempted, I add one Knight Incantor (GW, 28mm)

This will not be monochrome.

This will be fabulous

And here's the Knight-Incantor in all his 70's-van-mural glory;

Chrome effect worked well, not so happy with the purple OSL, but think I got the starfield right, although the colours are a bit muted on camera (blue, purple and green washes in patches over the stars).

Wow, I really like those stars

Thanks. turns out they're not too bad - dot of white, then drag it in four directions with a fine brush. Glaze over the top, then re-dot the center with white.

...I mean, holy poo poo. The shift from aged bronze to lavender OSL makes an excellent use of contrasts, and that color placement does wonders to draw focus. The scheme really makes these figures seem dynamic and powerful. You even managed to work in a few small lenses here and there (did everyone just go for both parts of the challenge this month?).

Thanks hugely!

Erm... you didn't actually oath anything this month? I double checked your posting history in case I missed it but can't find it. If you still have your timestamped before picture, post it and I'll let you off this time.

I did wonder why I couldn�t see the oath post image in my imgur; here it is - 5 Arkanaut Company, from Age of Sigmar

Playing around with schemes at the moment, but seemed season-appropriate and am a bit inspired.

Forgot how fun rust and tarnish could be.

I'd like to claim the Technique challenge for the blue->white blend. Apologies for slightly lovely photos - didn't have room to set up the lightbox this month.

First place, for three points: Lazy Angel

These are my favorite models for this month's theme. You've got lovely color gradations all over these specters, with attention paid to the light sourcing, along with good depth and interesting texturing on the fabrics and metals.

Thanks! The rusty metal was quite fun, and the blue blend was oddly restful to paint.

Should be quicker, as per my 'test the colour scheme on the hero again' technique...

November Judgements

Third place goes to Lazy Angel

And I'm limited to putting these as third, which is a shame. These have to be in the top 3 for that extremely fine blue alone, but the metallics are excellent, and that axe is breathtakingly disgusting.

Second Place, 2 points: LazyAngel

The battle damage isn't as pronounced on these guys, but the nicks and cracks in their armor are nicely enhanced, and that blue is downright shimmery. And that tooth-axe is going to give me nightmares.

A great, muted colorscheme. The metal is lovely, the blues are cold and subdued, Riptooth looks great as a flayed dog-thing, and Magore's axe is nice and gross.

Thanks all! Had immense fun painting these guys. Nice to just relax and paint for once.

Apologies for terrible pic; really low-energy month for a multitude of reasons, and couldn't work up much enthusiasm. Happy with the colour scheme though, and won't be too much of an arse to take forwards.

January Judgement

Second place for two points, Lazy Angel

A different and interesting take on ALEPH units. The Asura is a particular favorite. I think I would have liked to see a little more meticulous detail work on the other models, since they're all gribbly enough to merit that kind of attention.

Thanks! Although I have to admit I was phoning it in a bit for January; couldn't quite get into the swing of things.

Very happy with how this came out, even though it was a bit hard to pin down the skin colour.

And for this I'm also going to claim The Daily Double - both June's Guns Out and January's Every Step You Take...

First attempt at skin, done the scales and fin drybrushing.

After the skin was complete

Arm attached, with last touches on the skin to go, including masking the join.

Did have more, with addition photo taken, but managed to forget to put it in the thread. No worries though - was a bit of a scrappy month.
