Recommended Posts

Biggest issue for me is I work from 2-8:30PM tomorrow.... But, I'll do my best!
 

I, Gederas, accept The Boxing Day Challenge and vow to Build, Paint, and Base Tech-Priest Grombrindal for the honour of the Dark Angels within the 24hrs time limit.

Edit: Grotsmasha, was that a 32mm or 40mm Sector Mechanicus Base you used?

...Oh, lord, I've failed, haven't I? Didn't even occur to me until now that it had been more than 24 hours. Ah, well.

Time flies and all that.... still post the model if you finish it though, I'd like to see it :thumbsup:

 

It's just as well - I need Leadbelcher and don't have Leadbelcher. I'm getting Leadbelcher tomorrow.

I did not get any more painting time but I did get some better pictures in the week excuse of daylight that currently is outside.

Looking at it now I think I possibly should have done the gloves in a different colour just so they stand out a bit better from the rest of the cloth.

Good luck to all those still going in their 24 hours.

Chaeron, nice, is that read contrast over leadbealcher?

Thanks Trokair! Actually, it’s Retributor Armour before the red contrast - I’d looked up some examples and it appeared to give a more ‘candy’ result, and I think the only thing that would take that further might be a gloss shade or varnish, so something to bear in mind for any future models.

 

Some excellent completions everyone!

I probably won’t get my Razorback painted...the temp dropped 15 degrees on me overnight and now I’m far and away from the temp tolerance on my primer.

Hopefully I can still finish the build though, and get the initial magnetization done.

Well, here’s what I’ve got. One Razorback/Rhino with magnetized doors, and lots of gubbinz attached. The devastators are there to tell a story, and are not part of the vow, but I thought it would be a nice touch. Failure for me this year, I’m afraid. I (rightfully) blame the weather :P . It’s so unpredictable where I am.

Many thanks to Grot for putting this on once more!

Finished Tech Priest Grombrindal!

Terrible quality for me, but since I vowed at 10:26 last night, went to bed at 12AM and woke up at 10AM this morning and I work from 2-8:30, I had a grand total of five hours to paint him :lol:

 

Edit: Just noticed I forgot to paint the rim of the base. Whoops. It's been fixed, but I'm lazy :laugh.:
