Sigismund Himself Posted April 2, 2011 Author Share Posted April 2, 2011 Okay, there's the normal amnesty of 5 days for pictures to come in since not everyone has access to the internet. After this period, I'll be revealing the final tally for the Subforum Challenge and drawing the prizes... So when do we get our spiffy new signatures? I already saw one or two floating around... @Sigismund Himself: Out of curiousity, will there be new 'Vow Complete' and 'Vow Failed' banners, or will we be using the old ones? Ask and ye shall receive... Vow Successful signature for this year: http://www.bolterandchainsword.com/uploads..._1142_21859.gif And the traditional Vow Failed signature... http://www.bolterandchainsword.com/uploads..._2989_32489.gif Wear them with pride! I joined this year's LPC mostly because Sigismund Himself had absoloutely no shame about embarrassing me into participating through belittling of my abilities to actually complete a) a project of any sort at all and b ) do so at anything faster than the pace of your average glacier. Below is the vow I committed myself to: So, take that Sig! Ha! ;) I never doubted you :) Congrats mate. Librarianshttp://fc08.deviantart.net/fs70/f/2011/090/b/8/librarian_battle_squad_by_allerka-d3cx440.jpg From left to right: Chief Librarian Filinus, Epistolary Var'kres, Lexicanium Erz'inth, Epistolary Helcate, Codicier Sis'mund, Codicier Ferman, Codicier Vah'shi, Codicier Mattias, and Epistolary Davidus. (kudos if you can guess which ones are named after my fellow Librarium staff). I didn't do them quite to full quality, since I'm gonna go back and re-convert half of them with the new Grey Knights stuff once that comes out this weekend. But oh, well. Very nice Allerka! Wife gave me the Look of Doom when I told her I wasn't going to bed because I was painting my Chaplain. :P A brave man indeed sir ;) ++Edit++ My PM inbox is full (as normal...). I'll endeavour to clear it out so just wait a few days if you want to PM me :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dennis Posted April 3, 2011 Share Posted April 3, 2011 I have been away for a few day, got a 'surprise' little holiday from my girlfriend last week for my birthday. Anyways, it is my own fault that I did not upload any pics before, though I had completed them. However, I am in the progress of repainting the black armor on those BT mini's, as I have a new formula. So I just want to say I ain't gonna even upload pictures (as I saw some posts today still updating the LPC threads), as by the rules I failed it. Â When does the article needs to be done? :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RebG Posted April 4, 2011 Share Posted April 4, 2011 Having never had a picture signature thing before can someone tell me how to add it please? Do I need to copy the image address in or what? Â I failed but I should be honest about it and wear the sig!! Â Cheers in advance! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamesI Posted April 4, 2011 Share Posted April 4, 2011 Do we give ourselves the "Vow Complete" signature or does Sigismund Himself give it to us? You have to. He won't have access to do it, and not everyone wants to use the image. Â I personally have to decide between by Duel to the Death victory and getting the Vow Complete image.

The Shadow Guard Posted April 4, 2011 Share Posted April 4, 2011 Well, this is as far as I got!  http://fortressofunforgiven.homestead.com/Temp_LPC_Ph3D_DW_Squad_01_01.jpg DW Squad 1  http://fortressofunforgiven.homestead.com/Temp_LPC_Ph3D_DW_Squad_02_01.jpg DW Squad 2  http://fortressofunforgiven.homestead.com/Temp_LPC_Ph3D_DW_Squad_03_01.jpg DW Squad 3  http://fortressofunforgiven.homestead.com/Temp_LPC_Ph3D_DW_Squad_04_01.jpg DW Squad 4  http://fortressofunforgiven.homestead.com/Temp_LPC_Ph3D_DW_Squad_05_01.jpg DW Squad 5 (Command Squad)  http://fortressofunforgiven.homestead.com/Temp_LPC_Ph3D_DW_Squad_05_02.jpg GM Belial  I have to admit it has been a great ride and will continue to be so, but last week, three days before the deadline I came to the conclusion that I will not be able to complete the LPC vow in time. It was slightly disappointing for me but it was a weighed decision to accept reality early and come clean.  The main reason (apart from being able to only spend time on this project during wekends in any meaningful manner) is the decision I made early when I began experimenting with my sculpting. I decided that I would glue the terminators in their final positions so that I could add the GS content, mainly the purity seals and giant feathers in a dynamic fashion reflecting movement and gravity based on their posture. I knew it would make the final painting harder but didn't realise how much harder and slower it would make it.  On Sunday night (27 March), when all three coats of the washes had dried, I considered whether I should simply use four colours, black, white, green and red to provide basic details, paint the bases green and complete the vow at a minimalistic level. I couldn't bring myself to do that given the amount of work I had ut in to these models and the resurgence of passion for the hobby. I just have to continue plodding along carrying the banner of failure... but.. I am not really disappointed... I managed to nearly complete a entire deathwing army and will do so soon.  I achieved a number of firsts: - First time doing green stuff sculpting - First GS robe - First time using washes - First time in six years to get back to modelling and painting  So although I failed the LPC vow, thanks to Sigismund himself and the B+C LPC 2011, I have in fact won as I am back in the hobby under full staem!!:D  Shadow Guard's LPC Challenge Deathwing Army Blog  SG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As for having two images, I saw DV8 does. Just insert the LPC image code directly after your Duel to the Death image, like I did to mine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WarpWalker Posted April 5, 2011 Share Posted April 5, 2011 Well I finished only one squad completely. I personally failed my painting challenge. My goal was to finish all the minis to master class quality. It was really slow going doing that much detail. A poor time for me to start a painting challenge with work and a going back to school. :tu: Oh well. Maybe next year. I'll post the finished pics here. Sorry for the poor pics.

Sigismund Himself Posted April 6, 2011 Author Share Posted April 6, 2011 And here we go! The winners of the Subforum Challenge for the second consecutive year are the Blood Angels! Congratulations guys :tu: I\'ll get you your spiffy subforum-specific signatures by the end of the weekend. For now, celebrate. 105 participants managed to fulfill their vows, a little under 50%.

All you have to do is to PM it to me or another member of the Librarium team :) If you need ideas, grab hold of me or one of our handsome Lexicanii (click here and in the box that has \'All Members\', change it to \'Lexicanium\') or our sole Codicier at the moment, Vash113, they\'ll be happy to help you with ideas.

Indeed, the first person will be receiving the card featuring my own character for whatever acts of voodoo you wish to perform on it :) My PM box is now relatively empty so send me a PM if you have a query, concern or I\'ve missed your completed vow. And that about wraps it up for this year folks :) Thanks for participating, I hope you all enjoyed it and it helped you with your army progress! Until next year, au revoir.
