Volgon Posted July 8 Share Posted July 8 Did some more work on the Crozius! Almost done with it but I think I'm going to try doing some glowing eyes at least, and I'd like to attempt a bit of OSL along the same axis as the ghosts down the weapon/arms/shoulder pad.

Dr_Ruminahui Posted Thursday at 05:09 PM Author Share Posted Thursday at 05:09 PM (edited) Love the red glow on the eyes of the spirit skulls, @Volgon and your completed big Lancey boy is fantastic, @Boc - I wasn't really sold on the various bits and stuff used when it was unpainted, but the paint job has really pulled it together and made for a really great model. Did you manage to get the "Gulliman sucks" sloganning onto it anywhere? Anyway, got some more violently purple marines done - finished my first 5 infractors and am pretty happy with them. They obviously still need to be based (will do my entire vow together at the end), and I may go back and highlight their armour and trim once I work out if/how I want to do that, but otherwise they are done. I'm now painting the second of the squad, who are the same except their cape symbols will be facing the other direction. I'm about 1/2 a week behind where I want to be to get my vow done on time, which is fine provided I don't slip much farther behind.

Dr. Clock Posted Friday at 02:18 PM Share Posted Friday at 02:18 PM 20 hours ago, Dr_Ruminahui said: highlight their armour and trim I'd suggest the trim could benefit more from a shade first... I chose gold for the main metallic on my orange and blue Corsairs (because pirates love gold obviously), and I find when it's right up beside something really bright it needs a wash of some kind to get good definition. This ultimately just makes any final highlights look better as well, but even if you don't make it to that step at least the wash makes the metal colour visually more separate from whatever colors it's beside. I ultimately settled on Drakenhof Nightshade for my wash as it pulls the gold into a 'cold' spectrum in a neat way and I think something similar could work here, and tie it in a little with the blue in the purple. It looks like you may have already done this on the steel parts... is there a reason you didn't carry that over to the gold? In general those are looking pretty ace tho Doc! I'm a Khornedog in the main, but Slaanesh just looks like so much fun to paint and the new kits have great vibes.

Volgon Posted Friday at 07:45 PM Share Posted Friday at 07:45 PM More work done! Knocked out some smaller details, as well as completing the robe and added some OSL to the crozius. Very happy with the robe; it was one of those rare cases where I had an idea and it worked out basically perfectly. gaurdian31, Norman Paperman, Dr. Clock and 5 others 1 7 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/385991-call-to-arms-2025-chaos-stronghold/page/4/#findComment-6121078 Share on other sites More sharing options...

sitnam Posted Saturday at 03:40 PM Share Posted Saturday at 03:40 PM I have completed my first vow: I've posted a few better pics over on my HoH thread. I'm also issuing my second vow: "I, Sitnam, heed the Call to Arms and pledge to paint: 10 x Cultists 4 x Dark Commune Retinue 1 x Dark Commune Cult Demagogue 1 x Cultist Demagogue for 24 points for the glory of the Realm of Chaos and the Chaos Stronghold on or before 15th September 2025, or bear the badge of failure until year's end."

Dr. Clock Posted Sunday at 08:19 PM Share Posted Sunday at 08:19 PM Slow start to this vow, but got a ways in on my Azrakh this week: Gonna stay slow this week since you can see behind him that I also flocked the remaining Daemons such that my Skarbrand list can hit the ground running: 10 doggos + Karanak (he shall return!) + a few other odds and ends. The Daemons are from over 10 years ago, and never got properly based...

Dr_Ruminahui Posted 15 hours ago Author Share Posted 15 hours ago WE ARE NOW 1 MONTH (and 1/3 of the way) INTO THE EVENT THERE ARE NOW 2 MONTHS REMAINING As a reminder, all vows must be completed on or before September 15, 2025. Reporting Page updated - please review to ensure your entry is correct (subfaction, link, models vowed, point value, entry into Master of the Forge). @sitnam, if you have down conversions to your whole Dark Commune, you can enter the whole thing as your Master of the Forge entry. Or, if you only want to enter the one model, that's fine too. I have you down as the one model - let me know if you want it to be the squad. Oh, and congratulations on being the first completed Chaos vow - your vehicles look great. gaurdian31 1 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/385991-call-to-arms-2025-chaos-stronghold/page/4/#findComment-6121902 Share on other sites More sharing options...
sitnam Posted 12 hours ago Share Posted 12 hours ago @Dr_Ruminahui I wasn't sure if it was model or unit. I'll do the whole commune then!

Teetengee Posted 12 hours ago Share Posted 12 hours ago (edited) I, Teetengee, heed the Call to Arms and pledge to paint the below for 116 pts for the Glory of the Realms of Chaos and the Chaos Stronghold on or before 15th September 2025, or bear the badge of failure until year's end: 5 Grey Seer with Venom-Exterminator (Character) 10 Clawlord on Cyber-rat (Juggerlord Equivalent) 6 Grey Seer on (and off) Crawling Cacophony (Triarch Stalker Equivalent) - MOTF Entry 5 Archwarplock Engineer (Character) 5 Clan Assassin with Warpstone Arquebus (Character) 5 Warplock Engineer (Character) 5 Clawleader in Power Armor (Character) 10 10 Thundervermin (Infantry) 5 Crisis-Track (Krios Equivalent) 5 Ratling Stalker (Doomstalker Equivalent) 6 3 Jezzail-Bot Teams (Weapon Team -1 Equivalent, due to lacking a second figure on the weapon as per either eldar or guard) 10 10 Clanrats (Overseer with Blast pistol, 9 Blasters) (Infantry) 10 10 Clanrats (Overseer with Autopistol, 8 Autoguns, 1 Grenade Launcher) (Infantry) 10 10 Clanrats (Overseer with revolver, 9 Shotguns) (Infantry) 10 10 Clanrats (Overseer with Pistol, 1 Web Pistol, 8 Pistols) (Infantry) 6 3 Rat Ogryns (Ogryn equivalent) 3 Drillbeetle (Walker) The clanrats still need some cleanup sculpting and farsqueakers (voxes) but everything else is more or less ready for priming! The crawling cacophony with Greyseer is my Master of the Forge submission, but I'll need to edit in better photos. It's the biggest walker on the back right.

Dr_Ruminahui Posted 8 hours ago Author Share Posted 8 hours ago 4 hours ago, sitnam said: I wasn't sure if it was model or unit. I'll do the whole commune then! Do you need a better group pic? It is a bit unclearly worded, but having it also allow units makes more sense to me. I'll amend your entry on the reporting page. They are all in the group photo, so I don't need another one. sitnam 1 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/385991-call-to-arms-2025-chaos-stronghold/page/4/#findComment-6122000 Share on other sites More sharing options...
