mabe it just seems like a lot since i got two kids :huh: i only have from about 9:00 to 12:00 at night to paint. what is your secret guys?

I know those hours well, there the time i pick up my brush as well brother, and for the same reason ^_^

I survive on 6 hours of sleep. For me its 11pm to 3 am for painting,as the four kids I have are difficult to get to go to sleep during summer.

 

Though since I keep getting distracted by starting new painting projects I might have to either expand my Vow or throw in the extras at the end lol.

Ok so the easy part of my Vow is done, the 10 man grey hunter squad. (its base needs snow but that will be done at a later stage when I do all my models together for a unified look) I have made a start on the 10 BC.

This is also my challenge. Gotta make sure you hit the ground running when 9pm comes around.

I was up until 1 am last night putting the final touches on #2 and starting into some separated colors on #3. I will post pictures soon, perhaps once this third Grey Hunter is complete.

 

As a brother who is coming back into this hobby, my painting skills are better than I though they would be, which is good. But alas, it is taking me forever just to paint one model!!

Finished my 5 Grey Hunter for my DIY Chapter the Chained Lions. The camera I borrowed sucks so this is the best pic I could get. I added a wolf guard with Combi melta and wolf claw.

Hail and well met!

I finished my list (and painting chalenge) last night!

I will try to get pics up soon.

this is a conglomeration of my 400 point combat patrol:

1 lone wolf

10 grey hunters

6 long fangs (1 HB, 4 ML)

1 land speeder (2 HB)

 

and my 750 list wich adds:

1 rune priest

-1 lone wolf

15 blood claws

1 long fang LC (replacing the HB)

 

the only thing not wysiwyg that i can think of is that the land speeder has 2 heavy bolters. i just need to make an underslung one when i get more bits.

argh snarl hiss scream howl in anger curse chaos gods and whatever eldar scum thickened my black wash.

 

ok so to be honest I am teaching myself to paint...and the first five models I did a wash on ended up looking like they had just come out of a ash cloud. armor darkened almost to black,faces looking like they had been using mud for camo.

 

 

So I am having to go back,rehighlight everything and try and salvage all the work lol...

Here are the first four wolf brothers I have completed. Please keep in mind that a MANY year long hiatus was taken from painting models, and these are the first attempts after fifteen plus years!!

 

Also can anybody point me towards a solid online tutorial for painting SW's??

 

Not a vowed model, but I painted it anyways!! The first of my Wolf Guard Pack.

I entered a ton of work into the LPC earlier this year and unfortunately for the vow my graduation got in the way, so now that I don't have that on my plate anymore I can afford to dedicate at least an hour or 2 per day to painting. But I don't want to be overly ambitious, I just need to get myself motivated.

 

By Sept. 1st I want to have 1 Grey Hunter pack and my scratch built Ulrik done.

Btw - those that entered their vow for August 1, 2010 - the deadline is coming <_<. I think we all should be generous about time-limits, and You should provide pics according to Your local time - don't be too late and drunk, and make Your submissions ASAP :P.

Just to say I've finished my first 10 BC and will get pics up soonish.

I also would like to know if i could remove my thunderwolf lord from my vow, and i have good reason: my local stores manager is being a bit stubborn and saying that i cant play with the cool stuff other people make for thunderwolves so i am going to have to sculpt one from scratch, and i'm a very slow sculptor. I am sorry for the dishonour i bring to russ with this request but without it the entire vow will be a failure

It is through the dishonorable actions of another...not through your actions brother. I see no dishonor inherent in your request.
