SlangWhanger Posted April 27, 2016 Share Posted April 27, 2016 Unfortunately I only really have Tacticals I need to get done... I can put a Lightning Claw on the Sergeant though! Could start working through my motor pool though. Â All this and more to look forward to! Just need to get my gauntlets on some sprays to make things quicker...

marine7312000 Posted April 27, 2016 Share Posted April 27, 2016 So I'm really thinking my first vow is going to be all Dreadnoughts. I'll work on assembling everything but right off the top of my head I'll have two contemptors, a deredeo, a leviathan, a rifleman dread, death company, furioso and librarian. After that we'll see. I definitely have a bunch of tacticals to paint and have to do some DC. I'm thinking a captain with dual inferno pistols and a jump pack for a character this year, just need to find the right body.

Thoridon Posted April 28, 2016 Share Posted April 28, 2016 Welcome to Bolter and Chainsword! I fail to see how this is any different than someone who undercoats things on sprues (i.e. the red stuff red and the black stuff black). Given that this is your method of undercoating I can't see it being a problem but feel free to post an image if you want it 100% approved. Looking forward to seeing what you come up with! It is always very rewarding to see people's first posts to be in relation to the ETL! To answer your question, yes, that's totally fine! Go right ahead! Thanks :) Been reading the forum for a while, and as I have a lot to paint up this comes at a good time. I recently got back into 40k after around 15 years away so it's been a few months of digging out all my old units, seeing what's still legal, adapting things that no longer fit and of course the obligatory buying of new stuff! Now at around 10k total points of Imperial 'stuff'... some Guard and some units that will need to be Codex Marines but the majority are Blood Angels. I've got some half painted I'll continue with for now, and more old painted models that need redoing, so that should keep me occupied until the 15th and then it's just a case of deciding what to vow. Right now Dante and his new unit of 8 SG plus a Priest are looking at me from across the table saying "pick us, pick us" :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother_Angelus Posted April 28, 2016 Share Posted April 28, 2016 ETL is a great time to get back in. Lots of mutual support from other frater and progress pictures for motivation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LutherMax Posted April 30, 2016 Share Posted April 30, 2016 Hmmm... I could do Dante. More effecient points-wise than the tactical marines I have built! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Father Mapple Posted May 4, 2016 Share Posted May 4, 2016 I got to get Semper approval of some death company I primed as got some base coat on them before I remembered. They're second vow material, so I'll get some pictures soon. 2 dreadnoughts to do first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jolemai Posted May 4, 2016 Author Share Posted May 4, 2016 I guess you don't have black DC? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Father Mapple Posted May 4, 2016 Share Posted May 4, 2016 They're only black on the upper legs and chest, but it is a glossy black. See my WIP and avatar picture. It's not a huge deal, as I will be lucky to get 2 pledges done, and have, oh.... up to 14 terminators to pledge if I can't do 8 Death Company plus backpack options. No lack of things to do, just prioritizing what completes my army if possible. AFTER ETL worries. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marine7312000 Posted May 4, 2016 Share Posted May 4, 2016 The next few days will be spent prepping models. Debating on priming the first batch considering the weather is gorgeous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mightykin Posted May 4, 2016 Share Posted May 4, 2016 I think I'm going to do my Librarian in TDA carrying a storm shield. It was the first time I ever used green stuff; the green stuff was used to join the storm shield to the right arm. It is not many points but if I get it done in a reasonable time I can do more. I really want to get it painted too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charlo Posted May 5, 2016 Share Posted May 5, 2016 I'm going to do it. I'm going to spray a load of models tonight. Â I promise! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Father Mapple Posted May 6, 2016 Share Posted May 6, 2016 Semper,First of all, thanks for your service to the Frater. You're really awesome to be so dedicated to the forum and ETL.Second, I heard you're impervious to flattery.Third: I had assembled some death company 3 years ago, but since then, I had decided I would make the death company white. I just redid their jump packs and backpacks to be magnetized prior to ETL and had some time on the airbrush before ETL to get them ready. But thinking about it, this is the white I would use as a finished product, and wanted to get them cleared, if possible, as a vow for ETL. The red one is because I ran out of primer and assembled him more recently to finish out the squad.  What do you think? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
appiah4 Posted May 6, 2016 Share Posted May 6, 2016 You know what, I was going through my bitz box last night and I found the following: AOBR Dreadnought Complete set of Furioso arms, Blood Talon and Blood Fist bitz, along with Dreadnought Meltagun, Heavy Flamer and Storm Bolter A Magna Grapple What'll happen tonight is, after I return from the gym I'll be doing a lot of hobbying - first finish some half painted models, then build a magnetized Cassor the Damned for ETL as my first vow, because painting black dreadnoughts is the easiest thing in the world. 140 more points to be pledged to the ETL. Yay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Semper Posted May 6, 2016 Share Posted May 6, 2016 Semper, First of all, thanks for your service to the Frater. You're really awesome to be so dedicated to the forum and ETL. Second, I heard you're impervious to flattery. Third: I had assembled some death company 3 years ago, but since then, I had decided I would make the death company white. I just redid their jump packs and backpacks to be magnetized prior to ETLÂ and had some time on the airbrush before ETL to get them ready. But thinking about it, this is the white I would use as a finished product, and wanted to get them cleared, if possible, as a vow for ETL. The red one is because I ran out of primer and assembled him more recently to finish out the squad. Â Â What do you think? I think they are fine. However keep in mind that you can only enter a single configuration - no extra points for magnetized items. So just go ahead and pledge the most point-rich configuration and you'll be fine. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jolemai Posted May 9, 2016 Author Share Posted May 9, 2016 Hmm, some funky warp-time displacement going on there... Â Six days to go! Â Where possible, try and top up your vows with a character and one which isn't too far removed from what you're doing. For example: If you're painting Death Company, knock up a Chaplain/Lemartes/Astorath If you're painting Sanguinary Guard, knock up a Sanguinor/Dante/Tycho If you're painting red, knock up a character in red (Captain?) ...and so on. Adding one more more to the bulk paint process isn't going to break the bank, nor the concentration. It also enables you to be in your groove with your painting and help provide the better paint job (in theory!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
