November is bases month. This is the last big batch in my year-long ambition to base my marine army. After this, there's only a few bits and pieces that don't fit into the carry case to do. Hurrah.

 

Which means that I, Rogue, pledge to base at least one but ideally all 31 members of the Gorgons first company by the end of November.

 

[Gederas]

Why is it as soon as I vow the model, it starts raining constantly again?

God I love/hate where I live. Love it because it's nice and calm. Hate because it makes me want to look into investing in an airbrush to prime because of the weather being ridiculous.....

[Trokair]

So my vow this month is in conjunction with the Liber Astartes Swap Challenge  2019.

 

The chapter I was assigned are Inquisitor Van Horn’s Celestial Knights.

 

I, Trokair , embark on the 12 Months of Hobby Challenge, and for the month of November pledge to complete one Celestial Knights marine by month's end.

 

I dug out two models from my rescue and restore pile that I am considering, both hare currently taking a bath to strip of the old paint.  

 

[Focslain]

Well she is ready for the battlefield.

 

 

Depending on how fast I get the squad pieced together I might be doing a second vow this month or I'll hold them til next month.

For November I've chosen to paint an Angel of Absolution, one of the Dark Angel Successor Chapters, I was inspired by the planned narrative I've been working on for the 2020 Challenge. I was on such a roll I got started before posting, and went the whole nine yards and finished him up in just 4.5hrs.

 

 

Primer on, ready to go,

 

 

30mins in,

 

 

1.5hrs in,

 

 

and finished at 4hrs,

One month to late but heres my test Ork. It was a quick paintjob (for me atleast) and I liked the moss green skin. Now I have to do 90+ more!

 

[Rogue]

And done. The thirty-one terminator-armoured members of the first company, now based. 

 

 

Just a handful of marines still to go, those being the ones that live in the cabinet with the heavy armour because they're too big to fit in the suitcase. But that's a pledge for another month...

 

And really liking that marine, Grotsmasha. Simple colour scheme but top execution.

[toaae]

I, toaae, embark on the 12 Months of Hobby Challenge, and for the month of November pledge to complete a Bonebreaka by month's end.

 

 

Today I painted the Ork on top

Would you mind sharing your recipe for the green skin? Looks great!

I got it from this blokes channel (Emperors crusade) on Youtube:

Its basecoat of Deathworld forest

Athonian camo shade

Elysian green layer

Ogryn  camo final highlight

[Trokair]

Quite the speed demon there Grotsmasha, nicely done.

 

Rouge, I can’t decide if that many terminators all ranked up is scary, or if the little old style terminators on their 25mm bases are just cute.

 

 

Quick update on my end, models have now been striped, cleaned, reglued and sprayed. Unfortunately my Grey Seer died before I was fully done, so coverage is a bit lackluster. They will have to wait until I get more or I need to finish the undercoat by hand. I am leaning towards the marine to paint and because he has a slot base I had to put him on a 25mm base, but as they are on 32mm these days I then added the 25mm with model to a 32mm and used some plastic to make some rubble to try and hide this a bit, not convinced yet that it will work out but let’s see what a paint job can do.

 

[Grotsmasha]

Looks good to me

Why can't they be both?

[Azaiel]

Ok, so my vow for November is a Blood Axe Kommando. I sculpted a commando cap as a homage to the 2nd Ed kommados. Will try some purple for the first time (wish me luck!):

Excellent work on the vehicle, looks great so far!

[Trokair]

Short update, fairly confident I will have him finished by the end of the week.

 

 

[Grotsmasha]

Ok guys, this counts as my November Completion, and the teaser for the 2020 Campaign. There will be unigue objectives for each of the 3 Factions, Imperium, Chaos, and Xenos.

 

[Gederas]

Good god, the hardest part on any of my Chaos Marine models is the trim. I've been doing trim work on the DiscoLord since 12:30 this morning and I've still yet to get to the shading part.....

Not Chaos, but the trim on 40k Guilliman was so, so painful...
