Sabadin Posted January 2, 2018 Share Posted January 2, 2018 December ended in failure for me, hoping for more hobby time in January. I vow to finish the Broodlord as well was his vertically challenged cousin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dosjetka Posted January 2, 2018 Author Share Posted January 2, 2018 Same here, Sabadin, much to my own shame. I'll take a break from Tyranids/Genestealer Cults this month and focus on my Black Templars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
codyrstuart Posted January 3, 2018 Share Posted January 3, 2018 So, I finished my vow the night of the 31st, but I have had the hardest time figuring out a new way to archive and post on my iPad (which is why the photos are so wonky in size), so I will count mine as a failure. Here’s my pics though My last Broodlord And a group photo for the month With life fixing to get very hectic for a few months, this will be my only vow for the time being. Once life slacks up, I’ll come back if it’s still going. This month was fun, and really helped me flesh out my color scheme. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zigmunth Posted January 8, 2018 Share Posted January 8, 2018 Is this still on? I, Zigmunth, vow to fully paint 15 bases of Ripper Swarms, Lictor and Screamer Killer by 14th January 2018.I need to finish them off before the tourney. I will post a close up when I get home.

Dosjetka Posted January 8, 2018 Author Share Posted January 8, 2018 Still on, just a little low on activity. :tu: I'll add your vow to the first post! Welcome! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zigmunth Posted January 9, 2018 Share Posted January 9, 2018 Since we are encouraged to post updates, here are six Ripper Swarm bases I have done yesterday. Basing will be done when the whole unit is finished. Well two units of 9 bases each. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dosjetka Posted January 9, 2018 Author Share Posted January 9, 2018 Nice! Keep up the good work, Zigmunth! :tu: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zigmunth Posted January 10, 2018 Share Posted January 10, 2018 Small update from today... I have started another four bases (last ones, phew!) and had to wait for washes to dry. In the meantime I have sanded all the models I need to finish for the tournament this Sunday. Ripper Swarms should be finished and based tomorrow, together with the Lictor and Screamer (Thursday). On Friday and bit of Saturday I will work on the big dudes to finish off the army. Now for some pics: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zigmunth Posted January 11, 2018 Share Posted January 11, 2018 OK, since I got myself a new photo booth I will be testing it out :) Broodlord - painted few days ago; based and varnished. Ripper Swarms - 3 painted some time ago, 15 more painted this week; based & varnished. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zigmunth Posted January 12, 2018 Share Posted January 12, 2018 Screamer Killer and Lictor done! I am ready to field w fully painted army to the tournament ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dragonlover Posted January 13, 2018 Share Posted January 13, 2018 Started a Genestealer Cult army at Christmas, so I figure I may as well use this to actually get some paint on it. Gonna do them as Sons of Jormungandr. I, Dragonlover, vow to fully paint 1 unit of 10 Neophyte Hybrids by January 31st. Dragonlover Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zigmunth Posted January 13, 2018 Share Posted January 13, 2018 Chaplain, dear Chaplian... I think I completed my vow a day early :D will this be marked somehow? @Dragonlover - finally someone to post here with me :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jbaeza94 Posted January 14, 2018 Share Posted January 14, 2018 Sorry! I hope to post more soon! The hive had to deal a bit with travel visas before entering a new start system, soon they'll produce more bugs! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zigmunth Posted January 14, 2018 Share Posted January 14, 2018 Since I have completed my vow I will do some other models remaining... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zigmunth Posted January 15, 2018 Share Posted January 15, 2018 So to top up my 3 units of Tyranid Warriors I have glued another two dug out of my bits box. And also I have wrote the names of the guns on the back of the bases. I get confused ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jbaeza94 Posted January 16, 2018 Share Posted January 16, 2018 man, you have some minis that i have no idea what they are. its hard enough trying to remember the new range and weapons haha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sabadin Posted January 16, 2018 Share Posted January 16, 2018 Love those models, it's a shame the old metal 1 spinefist 1 bonesword model isn't still a valid option. Any old hormagaunts or biovores that we'll be seeing later? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DexC Posted January 16, 2018 Share Posted January 16, 2018 man, you have some minis that i have no idea what they are. its hard enough trying to remember the new range and weapons haha Those old Tyranid Warriors and the 'promotions!' Broodlords in this thread are seriously awesome, especially considering what Marines looked like at the time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DexC Posted January 16, 2018 Share Posted January 16, 2018 So, I flunked on my December vow. After the holiday period (bit of January as well) they looked like this: I basically got base coat and wash done on the blue and purple. Starting to see why my pile of shame is so large... Anyway, I'll vow to complete them this month. Slowly, surely, I will actually have some fully painted Tyranids. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zigmunth Posted January 17, 2018 Share Posted January 17, 2018 Love those models, it's a shame the old metal 1 spinefist 1 bonesword model isn't still a valid option. Any old hormagaunts or biovores that we'll be seeing later? I have only four or five of them. Which is not a legal unit so I need to wait until I find a 2nd or 3rd models aaand until 2019, since 2018 is a year with no model purchases ;) I got so much backlog I need to go through it. If I paint what you can see up there I will make it to 30 models (no matter the size) in less than 30 days. Which is going to be a huge one for me. So as soon as I finish my Nids I will be moving to another army Growth Challange ;) For the nids I have: - what you can see above - 3 Raveners - 2n Edition Hive Tyrant to have wings added - 1 Warrior or 1 Lictor to be converted into a Swarmlord - 15 Gargoyles to be painted (half way there) Next on the list is going to be either Flesh Tearers or Tau (if their codex is announced soon), but that's for another thread ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zigmunth Posted January 17, 2018 Share Posted January 17, 2018 @Dragonlover and @DexC - a hint: If you are taking a photo of mostly dark models, take it on a black background or at least a dark one. Phones, unless they have a PRO or MANUAL setting, will adapt to the majority of what's in the lens - bright colours, making the dark / black models seem as flat surface ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
