Kor'Vesh Posted July 1, 2015 Share Posted July 1, 2015 ---- July ---- Well it was a quiet June, with a lower participation in the Casual Challenge than we've had recently. We still saw some great completions though, and helped push things forward in the ETL. Now we are in the last month of the ETL, and we NEED a final push to secure victory for the Horus Heresy formum! Lets make sure lots of our casual challenge work appears as pledges to the ETL. We all know how this works by now, pledge some models to paint this month, build your armies, and enjoy the opportunity to stick it to the traitors/emperor. Full rules can now be found in the Hall of Victors thread - where anyone involved so far should feel happy to post their full army shots! Finally, I'd like last month's players to cast their votes over the next three days for their favourite traitor and loyalist pledges from June! Voting rules: - vote for your favourite loyalist pledge, and favourite traitor pledge - don't vote for the champion from each team, they get to show off in the hall of vistors anyway - make your votes clear so I don't miss them! Lets see some support for those players who have impressed or inspired you! So brothers and sisters, for the Emperor or for Horus let's see some pledges!

Kor'Vesh Posted July 2, 2015 Author Share Posted July 2, 2015 Great to have you involved Grand Master, and there are are some great vows here already. So I'm now in the process of buying a house, so I'm a bit unsure of my time - as such I'm going to pledge small, and hope to vow again later. I Kor'Vesh, being long of limb and slow of brush, pledge to paint one Mechanicum Magos, sworn to the Legio Tempestus, in the month of July. I also vote for the glorious Justaerin of RichMarine for the traitorous team, and the exceptional yellow flying brick of Lion of Judah for the loyalists!

Kriegriss Posted July 6, 2015 Share Posted July 6, 2015 A work in progress of my vow and a pictographic journey into the wild and wonderful world of airbrushing. [/url]">http://http://i76.photobucket.com/albums/j9/DBH_Hamilton/Mobile%20Uploads/20150703_200622_zpstlcaeldy.jpg at this point i was worried i had presided way to dark and that i would never get it to colour match my infantry but patience and and good old VII legion stubborn thinking would yield better results as i carried on. [/url]">http://http://s76.photobucket.com/user/DBH_Hamilton/media/Mobile%20Uploads/20150706_122320_zpss5zlryyw.jpg.html'>http://i76.photobucket.com/albums/j9/DBH_Hamilton/Mobile%20Uploads/20150706_122320_zpss5zlryyw.jpg Colour match is getting closer I know I go against the grain with painting canary legion fists and then getting darker as opposed to basing in brown and working lighter towards my golden yellow but i find it much easier to colour match model to model by slowly shading darker its just more gradual and forgiving to my modest skills. and as far as the airbrush goes its not as steep of a learning curve as i was afraid of its a bit of an investment but when you are paying for the level of detail you get with FW resin it is super rewarding to be able to not lose that detail in layers of brushed on paint and the smoothness is amazing. if you are on the fence about getting one go for it I have no regrets. just do a little practice on some old models or something to get the knack of thinning you're paints and setting you're pressure and it so rewarding once you get some work done with it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
