Skywrath Posted May 20, 2021 Share Posted May 20, 2021 (edited) He's done! Fairly happy how the white turned out, although there is still room for improvement. Presenting: Master Osmadiel the Defender! Fluff to go with him: Master Osmadiel of the Dark Angels have always been an enigmatic figure to say the least, even amongst the ranks of the First Legion. Records indicate that he was inducted during the start of the Horus Heresy, rising through the ancient Order to gather the attention of none other than Ser Luther, himself. On that day before his deployment alongside the remnants of the 112th expeditionary fleet, Luther presented him with the relic Calibanite Steel Blade. None could answer why out of all the thousand knights, Luther concerned himself with the fate of the one. As the Heresy ended, and the events of the beginnings of the 41st millennium unfolded, Osmadiel became more and more distant, even from his own kin. His induction into the ranks of the Deathwing was an event that only a few Deathwing dreamt off – holding off an entire World Eaters battalion to guard a vault of forbidden First Legion relics, having nothing but the famed Calibanite steel blade of old in one hand, and a storm-shield of a fallen companion of his squad in his other. For that feat, he would forever be known with the honorary title of: the Defender. After the event, the Deathwing Knights directly petitioned Azrael for Osmadiel to join their ranks. His time in the Deathwing did nothing to alter his mood - Osmadiel is a grim, foreboding figure, even amongst his brothers, a true embodiment of the late primarch. His appointment to a Strikemaster was to be expected and it is said that the jail cells of the Angelicasta, ominously, have never been quieter. Darkness surrounds his presence and his cells even more so, drawing the heat from the servos of the power armor Dark Angels wear. However, none could deny his efficiency in guarding the cells – to this day his title was in itself was a guarantee that none of the fallen escaped their ultimate fate. Curiously, when the Strikemaster is not assigned to the cells, he is surrounded by scrolls of ancient Caliban – particularly one of swordsmanship and the techniques of the ancient Order. Other times he is seen escorted by a Ravenwing pilot of a Dark Talon, headed for directions unknown. Sometimes it is with his Black Lion strike force of a Champion, Ancient, Apothecary and a rather zealous initiate of the Deathwing. Every time the Dark Talon returns, more and more scrolls are added to his pile, and more and more fallen are thrown into the cells. Whatever his motives for his silence, and his hunger for Calibanite knowledge, one asks whether Osmadiel seeks the location of [REDACTED] for reasons known only to him.

Trokair Posted May 20, 2021 Share Posted May 20, 2021 (edited) So two thirds of the months have already passed me by and I haven’t even started on anything. A friend has asked me to paint up his Corps Grinder Cult for an upcoming Necromunda campaign, so for this moth I will pledge the test ganger, additional models may follow after that this month or next. I, Troakir, embark on the 12 Months of Hobby Challenge, and for the month of May pledge to complete one Corps Grinder Cult model by month's end. I will edit in the starting picture once it is built/undercoated. edit: Starting picture Edited May 22, 2021 by Trokair Grotsmasha, gaurdian31 and Beaky Brigade 3 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rogue Posted May 20, 2021 Share Posted May 20, 2021 And the acolytes are done. They had a fairly inauspicious start, as the Red Brotherhood went down to a heavy defeat at the hands of the Ultramarines; but at least they did it in glorious technicolor.

The_Chaplain Posted May 20, 2021 Share Posted May 20, 2021 Pics of my Meganobz done and posted on my instagram: https://www.instagram.com/warbosstuska/ As for my plodding along vow-- I have the nightshroud bomber, tesseract vault, tesseract ark, and doomsday ark left to paint-- everything else is finished at this point. Sorry, I can be a bit forgetful about checking back on here; I'll be sure to be better about it in the future. andes, Skywrath, Rogue and 4 others 7 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ace Debonair Posted May 21, 2021 Share Posted May 21, 2021 One model a month. That's the goal, and I'm not letting little things like exhaustion and practically living in my workplace stop me!It feels like a long, long time since I last put paint to plastic, but I haven't missed a month yet, and don't plan to miss this one. On that note:I, Ace Debonair, hereby embark on the 12 Months of Hobby Challenge! For the month of May, I pledge to complete One (1) Poxwalker of the Hollow Knights Warband by month's end!The gribbly lad in the top left corner for this month, I think. Let's see if I can't get back into the swing of this! Heraclite, gaurdian31, andes and 2 others 5 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skywrath Posted May 22, 2021 Share Posted May 22, 2021 (edited) Continuing my onslaught of painting Deathwing, here's another one - a Deathwing Apothecary! Fairly happy how he has turned out, despite some pretty bad shading on one of the legs, but here's hoping I improve with the next project. Going to see whether I can get a Deathwing Ancient done before this month ends, Grot, pictures below. EDIT: Seems like my previous post on imgur was removed, so I took the liberty to include the pictures of Osmadiel the Defender in better lighting with the Ancient. This time there is actually a picture of his front haha!

Lienna Posted May 24, 2021 Share Posted May 24, 2021 May vow mark 2 complete, 3 bases of drones and 3 Arco flagellants. Photo of the both pledges up first, then photos of the individual units are behind the spoiler tags. I have to say I rather enjoyed this month, switching between cold necron metal and exposed fleshy humans made for a good juxtaposition, kept my hobby time feeling fresh. 3x arcos. I particularly 'like' the face of the lead lady. The wires going into the face are downright horrifying! 3xbases of drones Full necron army so far Gore Crow, Heraclite, andes and 14 others 17 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
