Let's do the space-time warp again!

I, Ashcans, oath this GW 28mm Necron Praetorian for April



Sorry about the photo, this was the best I could figure out to get the timezone in frame without the flash glaring it out, or the miniature turned to black mush without a flash.

I think my October oaths are missing from the spreadsheet. Because I initially didn't put them into one post.

Fixed, I didn't spot that you'd edited your completion post.

Looks like the spreadsheet shows me as not completing my November oath. But I did complete it on 11/30 prior to the deadline.

Fixed, not sure how I missed that one!

I'll get your missed pictures into the galleries for posterity shortly. And talking of Galleries, March's one is up for review - https://imgur.com/a/rn1yn7q

Oath Complete!


Battle Standard from the Mountain Alliance in her very shiny armour. This is a very early titan forge sculpt and kind of shows in the relative lack of detail and shonky casting. Swapped the weapon hand with an Empire captain (iirc) as the original one was unusable.


If you can't find or afford the A team, maybe their discount impersonators will do the job!


Another shabby bunch of thugs for hire, the Outlaw Trash.


And finally, everything I oathed for the season! A fairly productive year, I painted a bunch of stuff in addition to the oaths.

This guy really nails the theme of the monthly challenge in a fun way. Since you've used a somewhat limited palette of muted pale colors, the contrasts really win out here; nice blends in the shadows on the coat, and the freehand on the briefcase is stark and clear.
 
Second Place, 2 points:  Galaspar

 
I feel ya, buddy. Love and peace indeed. Also very striking palette of earth tones, set off nicely by the warm reds and oranges, and brightened up by the eye-catching teal of the freehand. Nicely detailed blacklining finishes these pieces off in a very satisfying way, adding that comic-art feel to the whole thing.
  
First Place, 3 points:  ape!!!

 
In among the sheer volume of work you put in this month are some incredible pieces, but which ones are the best? I couldn't tell you. They're all amazing in their own way--great choices of palettes and themes for your various crews, excellent balance of grimy and vibrant, and a terrific sense of detail and contrast that serve to really draw the eye. The trio of BoS trooper, deathclaw, and vault dweller is a particular standout group.
 
Bonus Point:  Zark the Damned

 
All of your stuff this month was hilarious, but it was the freehand on the bomb casings that caused the tea to shoot out of my nose. Nice work!

That's intentional, the gallery is just stuff painted in April. I could set up a separate gallery for the All Together images if there's enough interest though?

Sorry, by group shot I meant this one that had all the models for just April. The gallery had my few up close shots but not the full oath.

This is a delightful display of grimdark. executed in a clear style that really showcases these as characters. Earthy subdued tones give way to the brighter gold sections, drawing the eye to the primary colors framing the characters' faces. Very well-executed use of focal points.
 
Second Place, 2 points:  gameraMan

 
This giant is a familiar fixture on these threads; I've seen multiple versions of this model painted up. But none of them had quite as much bling as this one. Excellent contrasting of the jades and oranges, and that gold is just sumptuously rich.
  
First Place, 3 points:  Duct Tape

 
...I mean, it looks hot. That is an ominous glow effect, right there. Contrasted with the bare metals and deep shading on the rest of the model, the effect is of a warship that means serious business. This will make an excellent centerpiece on the table.
 
Bonus Point:  ape!!!


This whole cadre of greenskins is just incredible. Lots of bright colors that really pop, part of a semi-realistic palette that shows off these pieces as action-oriented. Just a super fun way to close out the season!

...And that's it! Everyone's efforts throughout the past 12 months have been incredible, and I'm pleased that we've gotten some new competitors in this year. Take pride in your work, and keep it up!
