Slave to Darkness Posted June 18, 2014 Share Posted June 18, 2014 dipping just seems lazy, much respect for the OLD golden daemon winners from years ago, no dip, foundation paints and airbrushes, just raw skill with a brush, and tbh most of the older GD entrys (from the late 80s - early 90s) are miles better than what we see now Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/290387-e-tenebrae-lux-iii-realm-of-chaos-strategium/page/51/#findComment-3722546 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forté Posted June 18, 2014 Share Posted June 18, 2014 I still have the old GD booklets from the late 90's. Still look to them for inspiration too. Some fantastic stuff for sure.

Chaeron Posted June 18, 2014 Share Posted June 18, 2014 It's fine, I'll just go get an abandoned warehouse or a gym lockerroom and start flinging models around after I've dipped them.

Captain Semper Posted June 18, 2014 Author Share Posted June 18, 2014 Anyway, SEMPER: It has just come to my attention that we're only allowed five vows. I was wondering if I can ADD (not substract) some units to my fourth vow, namely the extra dreadnought (with thunder hammer and plasma cannon - 120pts) and the two landspeeders (counts-as predators with combibolter 2x75=150pts). I'd like to safe my fifth and final vow for units and parts that have yet to arrive through the mail (mostly my Contemptor, my plans for the sold-out Ahriman, and the parts to build my planned Lord of SKulls on legs). What, seriously? You didn't know about the 5 vows? IS ANYONE READING THE RULES!?!?! Ahem *straightens tie and regains composure* The vows are set once you make them... It's ok to make some minor tweaks (like the load-out of a Character) but adding entire units? And in this particular case you'll increase your vow by almost 100%... Sorry mate - need to keep this level for everyone. If I allow you to expand your vow I must do similar concesions to others and that will undermine the 5 vow limit... Couldn't you just add them to your last vow? Wouldn't you expect the bits to arrive anytime now?

Akylas Posted June 18, 2014 Share Posted June 18, 2014 Gubnutz and Akylas: congrats guys on the finishes! The pics are fine - for both of you. Gub: I love Ahriman - very unique paint scheme which suits him very nicely. Akylas: Hamet is an awesome mini. Superb kitbash and great pose. And we're above the BTs!!!! W00t! Keep finishing those vows and continue to revow guys! Thanks! Finally my inability to commit to a modeling idea helped me, since I was able to cannibalize from 6 different kits for him. @Akylas,: where are the hooves from for Samet? @forte: But then it wouldn't be excessive They're from the possessed set. I was ordering some bitz and picked them up on a whim.

Teetengee Posted June 18, 2014 Share Posted June 18, 2014 Thanks Akylas. @Semper, can you give me a ruling on my melted heldrake base, (please forgive me if you did and I just missed it in the mix). It is bent all out of shape and is unusable for the heldrake mounting, do I need it to submit a completion even though painting the base is not necessary?

Teetengee Posted June 18, 2014 Share Posted June 18, 2014 I don't want to attach the heldrake until my replacement base comes in (which is taking its sweet time). But I suppose if necessary I can mock something up.

Not forgetting the beweaponed extremities ive mixed possessed into normal units so make em a bit sexy, and i used the bits from the fantasy forsaken kit to make possessed, sure im doin things backwards just stick it to an old cd or something, or on a dread base, still a base at the end of the day Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/290387-e-tenebrae-lux-iii-realm-of-chaos-strategium/page/51/#findComment-3722760 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Teetengee Posted June 18, 2014 Share Posted June 18, 2014 Thank you semper. I will get a base when I can; also I wish I had taken a picture of the melty one before I tried to fix it. It buckled up like something was trying to escape.

Chaeron Posted June 18, 2014 Share Posted June 18, 2014 To be fair, were there not a few entries of Heldrakes without painted bases anyway... arguably worse than just not having one :P Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/290387-e-tenebrae-lux-iii-realm-of-chaos-strategium/page/51/#findComment-3722860 Share on other sites More sharing options...
