Captain Semper

I'm alive! Took some time off.

 

Made a start on the last part of my pledge, the Graviton Rapier and crew -

Just a bunch of shading, weathering and details to go. Most of the base colours done.

 

Evening edit: Finished them, and finished my pledge!

So I realised yesterday that I am still one Angron short of completing my vow. This will not do. This will not do at all!

 

I shall thus endeavour to paint this gentleman over the next couple of days:

Wish me luck, and keep up the excellent work, everyone! :)

With less than a week left I come to present my humble offering of three units as pledged.
My painting skills are average at best so hope these are ok. Looking at these now I realise that I was too heavy on the shading on the Tactical Squad, and maybe too light on the Tartars Terminators and Praetor. Something to get back to later in the year and touch up, but first I need to make progress with the rest of the army. Only 80 assorted marines to basecoat and paint!

First of here is my original pledging post and a picture of the unassembled unit in all their new sprue glory.

Here are the finished Tartarus Terminators.

Here is the finished Praetor; I went with the fancy shoulder pads in the end as everybody I showed the work in progress to at the local store said that looked better. Not quite convinced that the others could not have worked but too late now.

Finally here are all three units together.

Weekly update...

 

The Seeker Squad models are done. I'm not calling this vow 100% complete until the bases are also finished and these guys are firmly planted on then, which should be either tomorrow or the next day.

 

I went very dark and monochrome with this squad. Instead of the usual Carrosburg Crimson wash on the red, I opted for Nuln Oil to make even the base coloration darker than normal. I didn't add any Runefang Steel highlights to the Leadbelcher trim like I usually do, and even the Legion icon is grey and silver instead of the normal papyrus and flame to insure that there wold be no gleam off of any steel to betray their position. This not only helps them in lowlight to dark conditions, but it also makes their lenses pop (which I assume would be the last thing their designated target would see). I really enjoyed painting these guys, even on a limited palette. Let me know what you think and once they're based I'll post them along with another group photo and call my vows officially finished!

Apologies frater, but I am going to gave to declare a broken pledge. Unfortunately overtime at work and a two year old terror at home have left me no time to finish.

 

My shame is great, but luckily the Dark Angels are well versed in dealing with shame. To the Interrogator-Chaplins I go....

Seems like I bit way more off than I could chew and I won´t be finishing my entire pledge till the deadline.
I´ve only been able to finish up a sinlge Gal Vorbak since my last post. (how disgraceful)
 

Gal Vorbak 1.2

Gal vorbak 1.1

 

But I wish all other participants that are on the homestretch best of luck.
thanks for all the great work everyone.

@captainsemper On the first page I have the magos title instead of the forgelord one that I could get. Sry for the extra work.

Good catch! Corrected!

OK, I managed to update! Yay! thumbsup.gif

Anyways, the amount of high quality work is through the roof - congratulations everyone!

Interestingly the Traitors have almost catch up with the Loyalists despite their smaller numbers... Well played!

So quick question about my titles, I see I have the Magos, Chaplain, and Centurion Badges, but since I have 15HP and a Knight included, wouldn't that also give me the Seneschal and Forge Lord titles as well? I dislike being picky lol, but the powers that be call my name...

Banners for the Banner God, Badges for the Badge Throne.

Done! ;)

Galadius Complete and with it the final part of my vow.

Captain Semper, do I need to post a full vow photo too?

Cheers

Vogon

Only if you want to! We're good as it is.

Apologies if it has already been mentioned, but what time on Saturday does this event close? Got my fingers crossed for midnight, since I still have a lot to get done, and not much free time this week.

Dallo

Well, I'll leave the event open for all time zones so effectively it will be open all day tomorrow, closing on Sunday. :)

OK guys, I just updated the first page. This is it. One more day to go! And guess what: The Loyalists have 15 Centurions while the Traitors 14! Now this is a close call, will things change by tomorrow night? Good luck to all!!!

As per usual, please inspect the first page to make sure your entry is correctly represented and let me know if there is a problem.

UPDATED TO THIS POINT!

...and of my entire finished vow:

As usual, many more pictures can be found here.

Thanks again for running a fantastic and very motivational event, Captain Semper! It has been a pleasure! And if any of my fellow traitors are still painting -- paint like you have never painted before, brothers and sisters! We can still win this! smile.png

In any case, best of luck to everyone still trying to complete their vow!
