+++E Tenebrae Lux V - Blood Angels Strategium+++


Recommended Posts

Not even gonna mention I go on holiday for 2 weeks soon so progress will stop.

I think I'm gonna fail.

You could always get your vow up to an acceptable finished state for the purposes of the ETL and add proper finishing touches after the event. For example you don't have to have the bases finished for the ETL...

Five and a half weeks remain blink.png

Good gravy. I'm not nearly as far along as I thought I would be. But I'm making progress at least ... I finished off the Stormraven yesterday with the painting of the door with chapter symbol application of decals (see my sig for link). Now just 3 grav bikers to finish vow #2.

I think I'd better be more conservative with vow #3 than I was originally planning, however.

Think of the badge!

I keep looking at Aubérons Leviathan...I want one. It looks good in red.

I love the model, but I do wonder about its effectiveness considering it costs almost as much points as an Imperial Knight. It could really do with like a 75 point discount.

 

I might just get one eventually to paint up, but it would be sad to have it delegated to just being a display model.

I'm still thinking about my next vow...

And that just shows that non-GW minis can work perfectly well - especially with such a high-end paint job! Congrats on your completion and your follow-up!

So it's Friday already! I'll try to get the update early on Saturday because I'll have a busy weekend (Saturday is the proper day anyway) so I'll be looking here maybe another time today, but then that's it for this week! So if you want your vow to boost this week's stats, now is the time!

UPDATED TO THIS POINT!

I, Aubéron, rise to the challenge of E TENEBRAE LUX and vow to complete two rhino and Captain Karlaen from Codex: Blood Angels and Shield of Baal Deathstorm of total value 230 points on or before August 15th, 2016. Success will bring eternal glory to ETL Faction Blood Angels and failure will doom me to bear the Badge of the Oathbreaker until my vow is complete.

Last but not least is the tactical squad (those with an eagle eye will notice I accidentally painted up the wrong sgt for this squad, as the one I vowed had a inferno pistol and fist, this one has a power sword and a plasma pistol. I shall rectify this as my next vow has the correct sgt and I will vow for that one as a power sword and plasma pistol instead. If there is some other way the mods would like me to handle this, just let me know.)
