ASK ME ABOUT HOW SCOTLAND'S PROPOSED TRANS LEGISLATION IS DIVISIVE AS HELL BECAUSE IT IS SO SWEEPING THAT IT COULD BE POTENTIALLY ABUSED AT A TIME WHERE THE LACK OF SAFETY FOR WOMEN HAS BEEN SO GLARING

This squad of masked musketeers is just so flamboyant (especially the Renaissance man on the right). Really nice and varied color schemes, and the shading on the clothes are subtle enough to make them look soft. The detail work is great too (especially the stripes on the pirate's pants).

Thanks kindly! They were fun to do.

February is over and we're approaching the end of season 12!

Since we're near the end of the season, I'd like to make the usual request for suggestions, comments, volunteers, judges etc. for next season. Do people even want a 13th season? It feels things have been tailing off lately.

I'm up for Season 13! This thread keeps me motivated, as well as puts just enough pressure on me to keep doing stuff! Love to watch everyone's paintjobs!

I suppose one way to disguise yourself is "be almost completely invisible." Using a limited palette of blcks and metallics, you give real texture and sharpness to these wraiths, and they have a palpable sense of malice as a result.


Thank you!

This is one of those threads that has a small group of regular users, but which I personally find extremely helpful. This thread has basically been THE reason for me to get through my backlog and paint a bunch of primed minis that would just be sitting around. It also means that my skill has improved as a result, which feels good.

If anything, I would hope we could encourage folks in other threads to get in here and oath. The more the merrier, imo.

I agree, I know we have dwindled over time but the thread is very helpful to me in actually getting anything done, especially if I am feeling stuck on my projects it gets me to pick something else up from the backlog and just paint. I really appreciate the work that goes into managing it and judging, and I would understand if people want to scale that back but I would really want to keep the thread going in some way!

Also reminding people that it exists in some of the other miniature threads might not be a bad idea.

Just throwing in another 'yes please' with keeping the Oath thread running - even though I took a few months off (mainly working on a big scenery project I failed to finish), I always had in mind 'well I'll get back to Oathing soon...', which I did finally last month. Three-and-some seasons of Oathing did a huge amount for my skills, and helped me get through around 2/3rd of my minis so far! Was actually thinking of going for another full season next season...

Maybe possibly would consider judging if we're short judges...

I went with bright colors for this because it's such a big piece that making it all brown-town and drab seemed really overwhelming - lots of houses of this style were actually painted in bright colors, so I opted to do that, but showing signs of wear and neglect. I am claiming the weathering monthly for the wear and tear on the house - I added some vines crawling over the roof because Baba Yaga is too busy cruising in her mortar to do regular maintenance.

Running the opposite direction from the "shiny" theme of the month, this 'jack looks like it should be up on cinder blocks in someone's yard, such is the extent of its rust.  Really terrific weathering effects, great highlights and shadows, and a base that looks so muddy I'm concerned it'll slip and fall over.
 
Second Place, 2 points: moths

 
Look at that shine!  The gems draw the eye with their deep contrast, and the metallics are varied and rich, with excellent edges and a burnished feel to the brass pauldrons.  Contrasted against the smoothness of the cloth, this is some very impressive work.
  
First Place, 3 points:  with a rebel yell she QQd

 
Somehow managing to find shininess in the grim darkness of the far future fantasy realms.  The contrasts and shadows on these soldiers are again a great strength, but the metallic accents seem all the brighter against the muted backdrop.  The intense edge highlighting on these faces also really captures the eye.
 
Bonus Point:  Ashcans

 
This is some very impressive detailing on this fighting kit.  The dull iron of the walking-cathedral armor is a really nice counterpart to the sky-blue tabard, and the metallics look impressively dulled from battle.
