Grand Master Belial Posted December 22, 2017 Share Posted December 22, 2017 I think the lens has a thin film on it. That might take out some of the haze seen in the pain boy shots. Otherwise, you are in a bit of a dusty environment. Sviar 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Triszin Posted December 22, 2017 Share Posted December 22, 2017 I'm hoping I can complete my vow in my vacation as I actually have some time to work on the stuff finally. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sviar Posted December 23, 2017 Share Posted December 23, 2017 I think the lens has a thin film on it. That might take out some of the haze seen in the pain boy shots. You were right, thank you for noticing that. Though I'm meticulous of cleaning my screen from fingerprints and smear on my iPhone, I never thought about the lens. So after cleaning the lens with a detergent it became more clear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sviar Posted December 23, 2017 Share Posted December 23, 2017 And with this my vow is complete. I want to give Uprising a big thank you for starting this event. After running out of steam halfway through, this event kept me going until my Orks were done, instead of putting them in a box for "future painting". If you read the IG book Rebelwinter you will learn that the Orks turn their enemies vehicles and Imperial structures into Orkish warmachines. That why the Ultra symbol is on the Stompa. I'm terrible at freehand so that was the only Chapter that would be recognised. Trokair, walter h and WarriorFish 3 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brettfp Posted December 28, 2017 Share Posted December 28, 2017 Finally finished my Deffkopta There's some more photos in my thread here (as well as some more crazy conversions) And with that my vow is done!! :) took a bit longer than expected as I got distracted by life... (and Death Guard) So here's the group shot Feels good to be done and not have a deadline :) Good Luck to everyone else! If you haven't finished yet, not long to go!

Trokair Posted December 29, 2017 Share Posted December 29, 2017 Calyptra – Just like the Cronos the Talos looks great. Looking forward to seeing Haemonculus finished. Sabadin – I hope you finish the Broodlord to go with your Genestealers. The Chaplian – Squinting real hard but the cloaking fields from the Ghostkell are obscuring any Knights that might be lurking nearby. I like the clean yellow you have used there, which yellow is that? Silvernale – Those are some athletic Mandrakes! Sviar – Love the mini Stomper. Brettfp – All hail the IronmanORK! I have finished my vow, just. Thank you Uprising for running this event. Please do run another next year. Group shot. Two different angles of the Warriors Two shots of the Scarabs (sorry, one is a little out of focus and the other had lightning issues) Front and side shots of the Destroyers. The one with the extra gold work is the Heavy Destroyer. Final picture of the three units from this event with the two I painted earlier this year for the August Arena. Another unit or two and I’ll have a small army. WarriorFish and Calyptra 2 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Chaplain Posted December 30, 2017 Share Posted December 30, 2017 (edited) The Chaplian – Squinting real hard but the cloaking fields from the Ghostkell are obscuring any Knights that might be lurking nearby.

Calyptra Posted December 31, 2017 Share Posted December 31, 2017 So I had a moment of panic (well, no, it was more of an extended period of dread) because although I finished my Haemonculus (and thus my vow) at 3 am Friday night, my job won't leave me enough time this weekend to shoot, edit, and post decent photos. (I'm writing this in my brief interval between getting home and passing out.) It turns out we have all next week to post photos! I can do that, provided I don't die of exhaustion and/or frostbite tomorrow. If I'm not doomed, I'm saved! *Passes out.* E_50_Panzer 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uprising Posted December 31, 2017 Author Share Posted December 31, 2017 I just want to say, I am so thankful for every single person who enter this event. I am so proud of the progress of every single person and their vow. Thank you for making this first xeno event, in my eyes at least, a success. We have only a few days left. After the third of January, everyone has one week to get a group shot. Then the hard part begins, the judging. Also happy new years everyone. brettfp, Trokair, fisheyedbunny and 2 others 5 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WarriorFish Posted January 1, 2018 Share Posted January 1, 2018 First day of 2018 and I've already completed an event, how many can say that? Turned into a bit of a saga in the end of my own making, as the Mandrakes have been all but done for a while but glad to finish things off and complete my first xenos vow I will be returning to them once I decide what I'm doing with the sides of the bases (stick to the brown, or go with black?). I'll use the group shot time to wait for some decent daylight over the weekend for hopefully much better pictures Keep up the good work everyone, don't want to start 2018 off with failure do you?

E_50_Panzer Posted January 1, 2018 Share Posted January 1, 2018 Ive got today and tomorrow to finish my vow, thankfully not much left on my end. Let's just hope I dont have anything distract me from pulling through. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Calyptra Posted January 2, 2018 Share Posted January 2, 2018 Here's my Haemonculus. I don't think I mentioned it before, but I did some conversion work on this model (before the challenge started). Here he is without paint. This was a lot of fun to paint. For some reason I'm particularly enamored with his feets (in a cats on the internet way sort of way, rather than a Tarantino sort of way). Those beans! With the completion of my Haemonculus and his feets, my vow is (somewhat unexpectedly) also complete. In the end, I spent 156 hours painting these three models over the course of the challenge, which was... challenging. If I attempt something like this again, I'll try to set a more reasonable goal for myself. I think I'm going to take a break from painting models for a little while. Probably. Maybe. I also seem to have acquired all this Necromunda stuff... Sviar, E_50_Panzer, Trokair and 2 others 5 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
E_50_Panzer Posted January 3, 2018 Share Posted January 3, 2018 Those are amazing, definitely some of the best Dark Eldar Paintjobs I've seen in awhile, seriously. :) I can see the TLC that has been given to every aspect of those models. It's great work. And as for myself, I'm afraid I'm going to fail my vow, I bit off too much and underestimated what having your family over for the month would be like. I owe this forum now. 53 days penance scrubbing macro cannons. Calyptra 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Calyptra Posted January 3, 2018 Share Posted January 3, 2018 Thanks! I hear you about family. They're always so uptight and judgemental, and get all bent out of shape over "distractions" and "indulgences" and "torturing people." Some of us can do more than one thing at a time, you know? Some of us like living in the city, and didn't need to take off in an oversized RV so we could spend more time meditating. Anyway, I'm not sure what the point of a macro cannon is, scrubbed or otherwise, but I suspect the torture pits in the Oubliette of Inelegant Keening could do with a bit of a wash.

Sabadin Posted January 4, 2018 Share Posted January 4, 2018 Here's a group shot of where my entries ended, 1 finished unit, 1 roughly half finished, the poor tyrannocyte off screen hasn't even seen primer yet. Was still an enjoyable event and loved seeing all the work everyone accomplished. WarriorFish and Sviar 2 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
