PATH TO REDEMPTION


The Shadow Guard

Recommended Posts

After successfully finishing my Interrogator-Chaplain in September, I do hereby vow to have 5 Ravenwing bikes, with Sergeant+meltabombs and Plasma Gun user (160 Pts) painted by the end of October.

 

(I'm sticking to something easy whilst I investigate priming dark angels black and painting caliban green with a brush or using a spray gun. Any advice would be welcome, maybe I can get them done in October too! No promises yet)

 

I use Fortress grey to highlight black armour. After priming with Chaos black spray I take a brush and lightly cover the marine with Abaddon black(sometimes I follow up with Badab black on top of that). I also use Fortress grey as a foundation on areas that should be white before applying Ceramite white.

I don't know if this was the advice you were looking for, in that case just ignore this post. I you were looking for any advice on a spray gun, I do not know because I have never tried one out.

I, Brother Moridius vow to complete 1 Ravenwing attack bike with a multimelta as my October Vow.

Here it is in in its current state:

Main colours are down but still needs a lot of finish work/highlighting/clean up and I have to get a base for it.

Moridius

PS Sorry for the blurry picture, I will do my best to have the finished one a better quality.

October Vow complete! Here is the finished attack bike with multimelta worth 50 points.

The only thing it still needs is squad numbering and I am holding back on that until the new codex comes to make sure I dont have to do it twice.

Having at least one lost soul who strayed from the path coming back to atone in the gaze of the Lion is also extremely satisfying - Go Archangel, I am truly hoping you will stay on track!! :)

Yeah, I'm just too dumb to know when to stay down. :D

C'mon all unvowed Dark Angels & successors. Are you gonna let a Fallen Angel like me find redemption ahead of you?

If that's the case, then...

*activates teleport homer for immediate retrieval* ;)

I djgoldsmith do vow to resist any temptation to touch the dark vengeance miniatures until the rest of my unfinished models are painted.

So for October I will complete 1 tactical squad, with plasma gunner / cannon.

That have recently been rescued from hard fighting on the dust filled wastes of the bedroom bookshelf.

For a Points value of 205.

I know its a clean up, and decal job but these guys (and a couple if other squads) have been in need if a techmarine since about 2005.

Starting pix.

So without further ado:

I, Master Matthius, do solemnly vow to paint 1 Limited Edition Company Master from the 2007 Army box. Armed with combi-plasma. 110 points

Before pics:

Tactical squad with plasma pistol and powersword--120 points

Landspeer typhoon--75 points

Here they are right now:

I am going to sit this out. At least until next month. I just haven't got time to paint...which really annoys me. I managed to basecoat every model for my vow, and even get colour on a few. It's a damn conspiracy...I pick up a brush and something comes up so I have to put it down again :lol:

Arkley - nice colour scheme. i had seriously been thinking of doing red dark angels successors at somepoint but couldnt nail it without them looking like flesh tearers. yours looks really good! also - very nicely painted to boot!

 

11th company dark master - know where you are coming from but thats no excuse :P how about a 'basic' captain who can mysteriously become a veteran sergent later on?

Was going to wait until I actually took a picture, but I'll just edit it in later :P

 

I, Artemid, do solemnly vow to paint a Deathwing terminator squad, from Codex: Dark Angels, equipped with Thunderhammer/Stormshields all around and a Cyclone Missile Launcher, for 235 points, by the end of October.
