September Oathing!

Thanks everyone for continuing to participate in the thread, love seeing everyone’s work lots of cool stuff (and variety!)

Anyhow came up with a new prompt for this month…

Three (or more) is Company or just ‘Company’

Paint at least 3 separate minis, which may or may not have a common theme/style.

This one for people like me who still have too many figs to paint…

Finish building, then completely paint this Leviathan Dreadnought and these Cataphractii in time for Warzone Houston.



I'll also be doing more of the O Group 12mm models in the background, but these are in a time crunch and must be done in two weeks.

Three dudes painted and photographed one even in focus!


I nearly killed myself trying to do eyes that I didn't hate. I don't love them, but after 18 (eighteen) painted eyes, I landed on these.
More fun was painting the silly striped trousers.

And this completes my warband who you can see emerging from the Lost Caves of Retaining Wall having proven, once and for all, that there are no trolls in these caves.

Got these done for Warzone Houston last week, and put them on the table over the weekend. For a bonus round I'm going to try to finish the last company of my Operation Bagration Germans.

Beffer

Bonus oath!

I didn't actually oath this for September, but as we're casually swearing...

I finished my warband (see post a couple above), and rolled the start of a new Five Leagues campaign. The first thing that happened was that the party was waylaid before even reaching town. The battle took place along a river. I don't (didn't) have river terrain and have in the past fudged it with printed out, scaled up river battle map images from inkarnate, but it was a bit poo poo. Years ago I saw a video of someone painting terrain on the back of transparent plastic, so I thought I'd have a September crack at it. And here it is:



Still a bit poo poo, but it was a fun and quick project. And cheap: the plastic was AU$10 for 10m2 and craft paint that I have enough of to last a lifetime. Thanks kids.

The trick is that you want to paint on the reverse side of the plastic so your minis aren't trampling all over it. So you have to paint backwards; foreground to background. It's hard to get your head around. And if you let it dry and try to blend over the top of it, that doesn't work as you don't see that when you turn it over to the playing side. See for reference the darker blue pools. One positive discovery was that I taped the plastic down to scrap cardboard to protect the surface of my table while I painted. I then realised I could draw what I wanted on the cardboard as a plan. This was very helpful, and if I do this again, I will take more time to do that properly.

Anyway a fun, cheap and quick project to add some (slightly less poo poo) terrain casually sworn.

Holy crap that was a lot of painting. I'll definitely be doing another detail pass at some point, but I'm thrilled with how everybody turned out.

I absolutely love that the Tyranids think that 7' tall psychic supermodel would be an inconspicuous cover for the Magus.

I came to post my completed miniatures and then realized I never actually posted the oath for them. :v: So great job me! Instead I had to scramble for a new oath. I don't know if this counts because I'm posting it all together, if it doesn't then at least consider the spirit of the thing kept!

I, Ashcans, oath this Reaper Bones scatter terrain for September

I like painting terrain. You don't have to be too meticulous and you can just have fun with it. especially scratch built pieces like these (with thanks or apologies to Devs and Dice who provided the instructions, templates and posters on YouTube)



And here are some close ups with the two bonus gobboes: a shoota and a netta! Also fun and quick to paint.

A couple of adventurers ready to go up against a spooky bone devil. Reaper and wizkids maybe...?





Had been playing a lot of Darkest Dungeon, and when I found that plague doctor I decided to try and make that a sort of a theme. Certainly spooky enough...

Also I decided I didn't really like the worldtimeserver site anymore as the background pic, back in the day it looked fine but then they hosed it up with adds and just broke the site. This time server site is a least a bit cleaner.

I haven't really been feeling it when painting recently. :( Fortunately these are just Bones dudes for whatever I need skeletons for so I decided to just power through on a basic paint job. Still good to get them done!
