Carlson793 Posted December 26, 2015 Share Posted December 26, 2015 I, Carlson793, accept The Boxing Day Challenge and vow to Build, Paint, and Base Magister Sevrin Loth* for the honour of the Index Astartes within the 24hrs time limit. *With a slight modification to account for my second-hand model not having Loth's original backpack.

Prot Posted December 27, 2015 Share Posted December 27, 2015 I Prot, accept The Boxing Day Challenge and vow to Build, Paint, and Base a Venerable Dreadnought for the honour of the Ultramarines within the 24hrs time limit. Here we go.. I meant to do the one on the left, tried to dis-assemble it, and snapped it at the mid joint. So I'm just doing a boxed version I had laying around. This will go towards my Strike Force Ultra which I would love to field over the next few days. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Firepower Posted December 27, 2015 Share Posted December 27, 2015 Well it took all damn day, with the help of birthday lunches and power outages, but I can finally sit down with my brushes for the last hour or two before bed. Thank god for the 24 hour time limit. I mean, it'll still be tight, but with people pledging freakin' dreads I don't have much excuse, no matter how persnickety I am about my work I, Firepower, accept The Boxing Day Challenge and vow to Build, Paint, and Base the greatest Emperor's Champion of all time* for the honour of myself, and vicariously the Black Templar subforum, within the 24hrs time limit. *As described by anyone with good taste.

AndrewChristlieb Posted December 27, 2015 Share Posted December 27, 2015 Awe man, I am a freaking sucker for this kind of stuff. The US doesn't have a Boxing day though, is that okay? It's currently 11:23PM the 26th though which I think still qualifies right, just less then an hour left my time to submit a starting pic? If not oh well no worries, but I'm going to throw down till someone tells me otherwise. Â Â Â Â I, AndrewChristlieb, accept The Boxing Day Challenge and vow to Build, Paint, and Base one Honor Guard for the honor of the Black Templar subforum within the 24hrs time limit.

So trying to do this with the one on my laptop! :P I've been wanting to do this guy for a while, what seems like a great idea in my head anyway and a single model challenge is a great time to get it done, we'll see how it turns out! Bits primarily from the Devastator and Sternguard sprue, with maybe a bit of Templar sprue bits thrown in for good measure. Â Â Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slave to Darkness Posted December 27, 2015 Share Posted December 27, 2015 I tried doin some freehand on the banner but I kept messing up (wobbly hand syndrome). Unsure where my transfers are so I'll leave the banner blank for the time being... So erm, yeah I'm done then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dantay VI Posted December 27, 2015 Share Posted December 27, 2015 Wow Nevindar, that is very well done. Â Do you mind me asking the technique? Have you used metallics and then washes, or is it a black built up to white and then washes? Â Either way it looks great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carlson793 Posted December 27, 2015 Share Posted December 27, 2015 {Completion Placeholder: I got to work with photos of my model, but when I checked them on disk, they were either too dark to show anything (no flash, dreary rainy day) or too washed out (same rainy day, but with a flash)} Okay, the 'official' completion pics. Not terribly pleased with the final result, but then considering how long it normally takes me to achieve the same results, I'm happy. Of course, my Forgeworld bane continues - seems I can't work with an FW model without snapping off any melee weapons at the least glue-able place.

paulJam Posted December 27, 2015 Share Posted December 27, 2015 Awe man, I am a freaking sucker for this kind of stuff. The US doesn't have a Boxing day though, is that okay? no boxing day? so when do the servants get their gifts? Â i'm out of likes today (again... how many do we get?) but congrats to everyone who took part. seems to be less participants that the initial response indicated. unfortunately i was subjected to massed nurglings (nieces and nephews) and khorne bezerkers (crazy inlaws), but perhaps next year...

Prot Posted December 27, 2015 Share Posted December 27, 2015 DONE! Never again. The bad news is I kept negotiating with myself to get it done. The good news is I skipped stuff I never would have skipped and probably can't even tell the difference if I would have done those steps.... still glad to have this guy done. This is definitely a record for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nevindar Posted December 27, 2015 Share Posted December 27, 2015 GrandmasterSapphon: Thanks! It was a joy to paint this miniature for sure. Impressed with the plastics to be honest.dantay_xv: I would be honoured to. It's metallics and washes. Might have just done a short write-up on what I did on my blog. Gilding wax (rub'n'buff) and washes.... //Nevindar(edit, link in signature) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Firepower Posted December 28, 2015 Share Posted December 28, 2015 Done A couple of things are skipped or not done. I didn't do the rivets or sharp highlights on the black, both of which are due to an incredibly shaky hand day. I originally thought the airbrushed black shading would be sufficient as it was for my Grimaldus, but there's just too much open space on the black to get away with that. Later, then. Also, no cross on the shoulder. I ordered some cross stencils recently, and I'd rather wait til they get here, rather than risk mucking things up with freehand. And the sword...well, the whole reason I haven't stripped and painted this guy over already is chiefly that sword. Still not sure what to do, is all. The lore has it as a solid, rather featureless black, which as you can see doesn't exactly pop. I might give it a gloss varnish to see how that works. But all that aside, I feel it's more than sufficient to be a final entry, and a damn lot of work for a single day. My persnickety standards will just have to wait a little while for a truly, completely won't-touch-it-again-ever completion Oh, my first time playing with Vallejo reds, too. After working with them a bit, I've concluded that I'm most likely never touching GW reds again :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Dark Angel's Heavenfall blades are also supposed to be a similar featureless black if I remember correctly so I would see maybe how some people have painted them :D ~Sapphon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Â The Paddleum is waiting along with the rest of us... Better break it out Firepower :/. I have shamed myself and my chapter. Penitence shall have to be assigned. Â Unfortunately my little tile job this morning turned into a major headache that I just got home from so with that sucking up about 15 hours today I just don't have the time to complete. I did get my assebly done and a primer/ base coat. When I get a free moment I'll finish the paint and base and post up the results. In the meantime the assembled model: Â Â Â Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
