Topic: Summertime Blues Painting Challenge [Month 1/3. 37 People In. VOWS LOCKED!]

[CheesyRobMan]

Hows everyone else doing?

Main colours are pretty much done, now all those beslubbering gems to do...

(hehe, I actually typed out "beslubbering", it's a great word  )


Edit: OK, it doesn't look like I'm going to get these guys done on time. Sorry everyone. Real life (exams and such) are somewhat more important right now, but I will finish them off when I can and post pics.

[Targetawg]

So i finished the avatar (looks amazing, ill get pics tomorrow) and did a fuegan to match my color scheme (by far the best model I've ever painted) so Ill get some pics when i can get some decent light tomorrow, possibly whip up a makeshift photobooth for myself.

I have painting add though, because I still have 6 warp spiders to do, and I uh...have like 4 days to finish em. But on the up side, Ive finished 3 display models for my army now instead of doing the tail end of my vow..

[Myung]

just want to say I finished my vow and then some. I will get pics up in the next few days but wanted to say

5 Reapers done
1 Farseer done
1 Scorpion II done

extra

Seer Council (5 warlocks) done
New Baneblade

[Targetawg]

Here's the pics I promised, another of the avatar is available in the thread I made about em. Sorry for pic whoring, Im just excited about how these two turned out!

So I decided to do an avatar and a fuegan model just for fun and to break up the monotony of painting my army. Avatar took about 8 hours probably, the hair is green stuff, looks alot better in person, and hopefully the armor in the pics shows how many layers I did to achieve the dark red centers going out to the glowing edges of the plates.

Fuegan was a total of 4 hours, he's by far my favorite model I've done, let me hear it on em! (I know fuegan is generally red, but I wanted him to fit with my color scheme, I think this alternate scheme is spot on!).

Here is the WIP on my vow. The Warlock (not shown in the picture) still is only primed.



Left to do is to ad the yellow colour to the head and cloth, paint the weapons black and to highlight it all.

[Myung]

ok here is my proof!

[1-i]

Dark Eldar lord is finished
pics hopefully in five days or so

next months gene stealers almost started

[Dangonblane]

I don't think I'm gonna meet my vow - I'm only about half-way through and I've got 2 evenings left....

and I'm not a fast painter...

and my wife keeps pestering me...

dang 

[Col.Gravis]

Well bar applying static grass thats my five Praetorian Guardsmen finished putting me about half way through my vow, still got 5 Grenadiers which I've not event started converting yet so its looking unlikely I'll complete my vow either, gah!

Well we shall see!

Pics tommorrow.

[SeriousCallersOnly]

I'm done with the painting - just need to get them based. I'd have done that tonight if I hadn't had to plumb a new washing machine in.

I've got some WIP pics - need to upload still. I'll try to take some more when I've based.

[Evil_Toast]

Storm Guardians - Complete
Swooping Hawks - Just need to be varnished and based , should be ready and complete for Friday night .

Talk about cutting it close  .

[Myung]

come on guys 2 days to go! get a move on!

[Targetawg]

Heh, Im working on it, I have the 6 warp spiders that are left on my vow in progress, should be done tomorrow, and Ill probably have alot more bonus material.

[Qui-Gon Jinn]

Sorry for not having responded earlier.I have finished my Vow but i do not have any pics and i will not be able to obtain any for a few days because of a big family deal.

[dontknowjackshmit]

I also finished my vow, a week ago actually, but i just now thought to post. 

I also did an extra avatar, and a few extra guardians.  I will hopefully get up some pictures tomorrow.

[PaxImperator]

Here's a WiP shot of the Arbitrators. I've spray painted them chaos black, then layered regal blue on, edged with ultramarines blue, did a very thorough blue ink wash, and edged ultramarines blue once more. I think I'll do some more extreme highlights to make them pop, then call it a day for the carapace armour. I've now decided that the fabrics are going to be a light grey, the boots will be a light leather colour and all Imperial iconography will be gold. All of this to offset the dark armour. Still two days left. I can make it.

Can I vow for next month yet? LRC and a termie chappie.

[Targetawg]

My vow is complete, Ill get some pictures up tonight or tomorrow of the 16 warp spiders, and the bonus models i did (the jetbike farseer conversion, fuegan, and avatar)

[Pandamonium]

I vow to have at least 3/4 of my Ogre Kingdoms army fully painted by the end of August.  It's my first paintjob so cut me some slack
