Puriexdeus: Amazing effoort and congrats on the next vow... Ravenwing reinforcements are coming in thick and fast... Between your RW squadrons and Stobz's stuff, my lot looks postively underwhelming. Excellent stuff....

 

SG

Thanks for the compliment, though I am nowhere as skilled as Stobz, I certainly do not subscribe to the three colors and your done method of painting.

 

Hey!!! ... I've got black, boltgun metal, bleached bone, fortress grey and white for the whites, reds, yellows and greens ..... and even badab black wash and dry brush for the weapon barrels.... and got two kind of grass on the base.... pretty high standard for me under pressure ..... ^_^ Seriously, I have always wanted to paint my ravevnwing sort of based on Batman concept... dark and brooding with little flashy colours.... whcih is why i limited the efathered front end and banner poles only for the sergeants and even then outlined them in dark....

 

I still have more detailing to do but this will do for the comp!

 

never loose sight of the immediate objective... :)

^_^ I don't think this was addressed to you SG... The word "your" in pueri ex deus post is probably a typo for "you're" meaning it in the generic sense...

 

@ Jono: Well done for your sixth mate! Cool melta bombs too! :) I updated the table and fixed the points value of your 5th vow.

 

TO ALL: Please check your vows in the tables and make sure you're happy with them. Lots of last minute completions make potential mistakes easy to happen... Thx!

:D I don't think this was addressed to you SG... The word "your" in pueri ex deus post is probably a typo for "you're" meaning it in the generic sense...

Yes I am/was/will be/ are speaking in the broader generic sense of paintdom in general. You know what they say about rocks and glass houses. Lacking good eye-sight, a steady hand, and patience is partially my drawback. In regard to the three colors and your done comment, I am referring to the many, many players I have had the opportunity to play against over the last couple of decades. One thing I have noticed though is that the majority of players who stick around do tend to paint to an above average standard which is a pleasing part of the hobby. I personally would rather have my back-side handed to me by a well painted army as opposed to a grey primered death-star of the week army.

 

Oh by the way, I'll have my third and final vow posted within the next 24 hours.

@ Brother Immolator: what do you mean?

 

@ Duc Avieux: Congrats. Int. Chaplain do indeed look awesome! Status updated.

 

@ Brother Bethor: Hmmm... Are you sure you're done with them? They look in a pretty early stage of painting to me... Can you attempt to paint at least the Hammers and the Shields as well as the hilt of Zekes sword and frontal detail? Seriously - you still have some 24-odd hrs before the deadline. I'm changing your status to Complete but really, a little more effort would work wonders here...

Oh, that's simple. For us Greeks it's 01:00 in the morning of the 16th. Tell you what, go to settings and set the B&C clock to GMT. That will solve your problem... ;)

 

Ok thanks that means i can catch some sleep :) Will throw that tech marine even.

 

 

EDIT:

Will it be too much of a problem if my apothecary is completely messed up? His armor i mean.

The rest of my minies are/will be to the best of my ability but i cant paint white if my life depended on it.

SG

Boom!!

 

What an effort Shadow Guard, nice one! We should get everyone to post a shot of their vows in their entirety so show off the great things which have been achieved by the DA team...

 

I like it, but I'll wait till the official time has past. Or maybe an group ETL thread specifically for group pics of completions?

Cheers,

Jono

E TENEBRAE LUX

icon7.gif THE DARK ANGELS PAINTING CHALLENGE icon7.gif

ONLY 24 HOURS TO GO UNTIL THE END OF E TENEBRAE LUX!

So make haste – this time tomorrow the doors close forever! Set your B&C clock to GMT time, this is what I’m going by. Please make sure you got the daylight saving time correct! Even London is at +1 GMT at the moment.

Good luck to all!

Sadly and unfortunately, real life has prevailed and I have failed in my work to recruit the Venerable Dreadnought Gathrael to our cause in time.

I must now declare myself

I am sorry I have let you down, brothers, but my work will continue. I have toh and greatly feel my shame.
