Hezekiel Posted February 1, 2012 Share Posted February 1, 2012 I, Hezekiel of the Dark Angels, vow on the honour of my Chapter to paint and present at least one veteran squad on or before the 31st of March, 2012. I promise to provide at least two WIP updates, preferably with pictures, in that time. I vow that if I should fail, I will provide the Librarium with an article and wear the Signature of Shame until my penitence period is done.

Hezekiel Posted March 16, 2012 Author Share Posted March 16, 2012 Ok here is my update, i have gave this a go, and i think i am around 80 percent done(ish). Please be kind as this (when completed) will be my first ever squad that i have painted, i am however loving doing it! I should be 100 percent complete by monday. http://img692.imageshack.us/img692/9508/018jvh.jpg Uploaded with ImageShack.us http://img31.imageshack.us/img31/7043/020mrh.jpg Uploaded with ImageShack.us Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/246493-lpc-complete/#findComment-3017635 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Interrogator Stobz Posted March 17, 2012 Share Posted March 17, 2012 Fanstastic effort Hezekiel :tu: especially for your first squad. Get them finished to a standard you are happy with and call it vow complete, then go back and add any other bits or improvements later. CnC: I'd wash the robes with Devlan Mud, hold the model upside down to get it to flow into the recesses properly. I'm glad you enjoy the process, it makes painting less of a chore and more of a hobby in itself.

Captain Semper Posted March 17, 2012 Share Posted March 17, 2012 Do you want to see my first ever squad? The correct answer here is: No, I like my retinas just like they are now thank you very much! :lol: Excellent Hezekiel! This is a very decent lookin squad you got there! Do what Stobz said ( if you have "Devlan Mud" lying around) and it would even better! I'll update your status and can't wait for the finished stuff on Monday (or earlier for that matter)!

Hezekiel Posted March 17, 2012 Author Share Posted March 17, 2012 Thanks very much Stobz and Semper, it was always a bit of a risk doing my first squad for the lpc as i would have to show my first baby steps in painting! I have ordered some Devlan mud (thanks for the tip!), i will get them" complete" this weekend( mud wash will have to wait until the middle of the week) but have a feeling i will be tweaking them for quite some time. Hopefully everyone will get over the game line and the DA will come out on top!

Hezekiel Posted March 18, 2012 Author Share Posted March 18, 2012 I, Hezekiel of the Dark Angels, have completed my vow ! I hope all from our chapter will honour the lion and complete their vow's.! http://img51.imageshack.us/img51/5535/002yjj.jpg Uploaded with ImageShack.us http://img714.imageshack.us/img714/1172/006tm.jpg Uploaded with ImageShack.us I would have liked to have done a mud wash for the robes, but as i have not got any at the moment and time is running out i will have to be satisfied with how they are for now. Overall has been fun to do this challenge, and now i have popped my painting cherry look forward to painting/ collecting the rest of my fledgling army. Good Luck to all still working on their vow's.

Congratulations for finishing your vow and reporting it to the official thread! Now it's time to collect - put the "Vow Complete" badge on! You deserve it!

The Shadow Guard Posted March 18, 2012 Share Posted March 18, 2012 Damned good effort for a first squad. Well done hezekile and keep up the good work. Take Stobz's advice on the washes. Devlan Mud and badab Black washes are you erstwhile allies. I only discovered the virtues of washes last year during the 2011 LPC after 13 years in to the hobby!!! :sweat: :confused: You've done pretty well!

MadDoc Posted March 18, 2012 Share Posted March 18, 2012 Click HERE then paste the code below into the Signature box and click the Update My Signature button. Hopefully that link should work.

Edit - Hezekiel you should change the code to the updated code above (it now links to your thread rather than mine. whoops), or simply change the ?showtopic=246102 bit to ?showtopic=246493. I pasted the code and forgot to alter the thread/topic code to redirect to your thread.

Cactus Posted March 18, 2012 Share Posted March 18, 2012 Congratulations on completing your vow and your first ever painted unit Hezekial. I'm glad you enjoyed the experience. I only just noticed the lightning effect on the power fist. Love it! B) What's next on the painting table?

JaM_TW Posted March 18, 2012 Share Posted March 18, 2012 Looks good, but: Try if you can get rid of that overspill on the base, and see if you can base the other marines too. Getting them based, and painting the baselip in 1 uniform colour really ties in the whole group, and, eventually, your whole army.

Thanks Flint, if you see the last pics above, i have painted all the base's the same colour and added grass and sand to all. Next time i will try something different for the bases maybe some stone?
