Captain Semper

Calling my Vow done. I hates my Astorath so damn much, it has defied me to no end, but hes done until I get another Axe.

 

Group Shot.

Well done, everything is painted to such a good standard and the motion you've captured into your Dreadnought and Captain's poses are superb :tu:

I Brother Lemartes rise to the challenge of E TENEBRAE LUX on the side of the Blood Angels and vow to complete a Knight Gallant with a meltagun and stormspear rocket pod for a total value of 412pts  on or before August 1st, 2018. Success will bring me eternal glory and failure will doom me to wear the Badge of the Oathbreaker until the year-end.

With 9 days... 

Love it - I certainly can't work like that... but always amazing when people can.

Stuff Ekfud learned...

- Finecast... is an oxymoron

- Black is rather hard to highlight. Blue rather than grey hightlights might be the go for me in future.

- DC have ridiculous amounts of extras.

- Rather happy with the standard bearer - no practical purpose other than making a big target, but I like the look

- Did I mention finecast sucks?

Still to go after ETL is finished - working on a special decal for the banner (whole side project), and then the whole lot will get a matt varnish.

Weren't you just bemoaning the weather for priming?!?! Madness!!!

 

Best get cracking, down to eight days now! All the best!

Out of interest, do you think you'll get it done before Charlo finishes his Knight?

Excellent work Ekfud, congratulations on the completion!

The red and the transitions on the cloth stand out to me, I wish I could achieve that (I seem to be messing up cloth lately). As for highlights, I use Hawk Turquoise as it gives a muted blue tinge to the armour. I know people are concerned over getting a TRON effect when using blue but in my experience, one really has to try hard to get that from a black base :)

Great job Ekfud! I really love your Chaplains. Especially what you did on their scrolls and pauldrons.

I've been doing whatever I could to avoid painting DC during this ETL, so I admire what what you achieved even more because of that.

Splendid! And the banner-man is growing his own legend already :)

I had about a 30 minute window yestersay where it wasnt raining and barely was able to get the lead belcher spray on him before it started up again! Now I just need to hope it stops raining long enough today so I can spray the armor parts black. I decided I'm not going to let the weather stop me!

 

I'm planning on having him finished by monday. Hopefully Charlo finds time to finish his first (or at all) ;)

Oh man, I'm catching the last minute vow fever too!

I, Slothysaur, rise to the challenge of E TENEBRAE LUX on the side of the Blood Angels and vow to complete a Relic Sicaran Battle Tank armed with Lascannon Sponsons of total value 215 points on or before August 1st, 2018. Success will bring me eternal glory and failure will doom me to wear the Badge of the Oathbreaker until the year-end.

I've got the next four hours freed up and a new set of brushes. Painting ahoy!

Edit: Lascannons, not Twin Lascannons.

Thanks - I think I'm committed to dawnstone & eshin grey now for any black on the army... Will try turquoise if I ever decide I hate myself enough to do black templars or something :-)

In hindsight, DC were possibly one of the worst time:points ratio options to do for ETL, but glad to have them done now :-)

I got a bit excited about my gold captain before ETL started - should have kept him in reserves for a quick(er) points boost.

Hell yeah! That's a very nice piece of tank!

I'm still in the mountains, but no worries - scouts will be ready on time:)
