I know the bright vibrant colours you did them in is something new for you, but they look great! Your Lord of Change in particular is a work of art. I'm really glad everyone here was able to keep you motivated to finish. Plus, we all learned something here - that demons can't count. It's because of all those heads and eyes! So confusing. I'm glad to hear that things are calming down at work, and if things get busy again I wouldn't mind taking over some of the pep-talk and counting (ha!) duties or something else, if you need support. I know it's a lot easier said than done and I know it's just words from a stranger on the internet but please be careful, because stress is an absolute killer (I had to quit my job and was completely knackered for around six months a couple of years ago due to stress and I don't think I'll ever really be at the level I was before, honestly).

It's going to be much darker by the time I'm done, which kind of stinks because I think that's the best blending I can remember doing. I finished the trim and put oils on last night, so I'm optimistic I can finish tonight (admittedly have been rushing these a good bit, need them ready for Saturday haha) It's a knock off Sons of Horus 30k scheme that I've tweaked a bit with some help of local non color blind people lol Edited July 24 by Boc Dr_Ruminahui, Antarius, Firedrake Cordova and 1 other 2 1 1 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/383036-call-to-arms-chaos-stronghold/page/6/#findComment-6051739 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Antarius Posted July 24 Share Posted July 24 Yeah I know that feeling, where something looks great at a stage where you know you are going to cover it all over before you’re done. Still, if you’re darkening it with washes, I think the gradient will still show through Boc, Dr_Ruminahui, gaurdian31 and 1 other 2 1 1 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/383036-call-to-arms-chaos-stronghold/page/6/#findComment-6051761 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eagerly awaiting your work on the rest of the vow. Thanks! Been a bit overly blessed by Nurgle the last few days so painting has slowed down quite a bit.

Tallarn Commander Posted July 24 Share Posted July 24 (edited) Last year I failed to complete a pledge. Hopefully I'll do better this year. I will only make 1 pledge this year and here it is.... "I, Tallarn Commander, heed the Call to Arms and pledge to paint "Voidrage," a squad of 10 Khorne Bloodletters for 10 points for the Glory of Chaaaoooossss (Daemons)!!!! and the Chaos Stronghold on or before 17th September 2024, or bear the badge of failure until years end." Next step: add jewelers chain and prime.

Thanks Antarius, its appreciated. I should be good, though - I don't have anything big or stressful that I foresee in the next 1.5 months but I'll be sure to call on you if I do. I was wondering if you could give us a close up photo of your guy on the floating disk - I'm interested in seeing him in greater detail than he was in the group shot. Even though I'm almost done, since I've been promising for a while, here's an updated photo on my cute little crab tank: More photos are here if anyone is interested.

gaurdian31 Posted July 26 Share Posted July 26 Some amazing work going on and being completed here! As I said earlier Nurgle blessed me a bit too much so not very much progress this week. I got some work in on one of the possessed, will hopefully have more time next week as I have a friend coming in from out of town this weekend. Anyway here's a picture of what I have gotten done on the possessed.

Cryptix Posted July 26 Share Posted July 26 Big one incoming! Figured I might as well do it now before I lose a week traveling for a family reunion. Who knows, might be able to paint some of the basic bolter guys on the road. I, Cryptix, heed the Call to Arms and pledge to paint 40 bolter legionnaires, 10 special weapon legionnaires, 20 havocs, 10 chosen, 40 cultists, a chaos lord, 2 masters of execution, a sorcerer, and a helbrute for 143 points for the Glory of the Heretic Astartes forum and the Chaos Stronghold on or before 17th September 2024, or bear the badge of failure until years end. Spoiler And the jobs a big un vow I, Cryptix, heed the Call to Arms and pledge to paint a greater brass scorpion of khorne for 10 points for the Glory of the Heretic Astartes forum and the Chaos Stronghold on or before 17th September 2024, or bear the badge of failure until years end.

Xin Ceithan Posted July 28 Share Posted July 28 I was able to get in the base coat for the metallics with some initial edge highlighting (also still fussing about the correct tone of green ) Next I’ll have to decide on the greenish tint for metal trim- hinting Mantis Warrior contrast on leadbelcher basecoat might do the trick gaurdian31, Firedrake Cordova, Kharn13 and 5 others 6 2 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/383036-call-to-arms-chaos-stronghold/page/6/#findComment-6052448 Share on other sites More sharing options...
