I know I've been silent on my vow but it's coming along. All 3 land raiders have had metals and washes done as well as the primer and base. Now time for some details and highlights when I get another hobby moment and we can wrap it up.

[TrawlingCleaner]

I TrawlingCleaner rise to the challenge of E TENEBRAE LUX on the side of the space wolves and vow to complete 1 Njal Stormcaller, 2 squads of 5 grey hunters with a Wolf Guard each, for the glorious Sons of Morkai. The total value is  344 points on or before August 1st, 2018. Success will bring me eternal glory and failure will doom me to wear the Badge of the Oathbreaker until the year-end.

Second vow complete! Dunno if I'll have time for a third... 

 

Cheers all.

ETL VI - WEEK 8 UPDATE

[Lord Blackwood]

I, Lord Blackwood, rise to the challenge of E TENEBRAE LUX on the side of the Vlka Fenryka and vow to complete the listed Force of total value 345 points on or before August 1st, 2018.
Success will bring me eternal glory and failure will doom me to wear the Badge of the Oathbreaker until the year-end!

This Vow Will consist of 
1 Knight Gallant  @ 345 Points 

[Dantay VI]

Everybody is doing so well......

 

Me?

 

Well I got the metallics done on the plates for my knights and the weapon arms more or less done for the leviathans

 

I was going t do the base colour on the plates, but that didnt work out, as you can see I am a messy painter.

 

New plan is to varnish and mask the metallics, then do the armour plates again with the airbrush.

 

Hoping as the main bodies are all metal construction, they will get done pretty fast.

 

What symbol should I put in the cog on the Atropos' chest plate?

something industrial  , for some reason I  am ( maybe unfairly )  associating your knight house with your job

[Dantay VI]

Hi,

 

No the Knights are not job-related, just ones I like the look of.

 

The Atropos will be the master of the forge, so I have decided to use a variation of that marking on the right side of the chest panel, while the left side will have his personal heraldry mark

 

The centre is too small for the house symbol, especially with the split, so, not sure what to put there... A skull like the symbol for the Omnissiah?

 

I am avoiding aquilas, at least for now. Using them as allies for my Wolves, but at some point want to transform them into an army in their own right and they may end up facing off against loyalist troops, so having no chaos or aquila markings works quite well 

[TiguriusX]

Progress report

 

My vow has 3 parts to it

 

Part 1 (the dreads and most of the points) is completed

 

 

 

 

Next up is Njal

[Captain Semper]

Great, keep the momentum going! Let's see some first vow completions this weekend! 

 

UPDATED TO THIS POINT!

[PeteySödes]

Mines definately coming, baby’s strapped into the bjorn and we’re jamming out!

[Lord Blackwood]

My Third Vow Is Complete 



Getting ready for the kickoff of our work league I  have also been painting Vostroyans 
Red on the tilt shield Means Blooded in the New Edition. 


 

[Graymane]

I'm trying! It's hotter than Vulkan's freshly lava dipped underpants here. I diluted my paint, two parts paint to one water as usual, paint on my pallet was dry in under a minute. I'm Welsh for Emperor's sake. I'm not used to this chaos cursed heat! I have snow bases for a reason! Aaaargh!

Sorry. Heat makes me go a little wulfen... :|

[GrFlur]

My Second and Last vow is completed:

 

 

Grogg for every body!!!

[Captain Semper]

Congratulations to both completions!

 

But guys you have 100% completion rate in your 2nd vows, 67% completion rate in your 3rd vows but ONLY 13% completion rate in your First vows. No matter how dedicated the few who have already completed their first vows you really need to see more fist-vow completions coming your way!

 

THIS IS THE CUT-OFF FOR THE WEEKLY UPDATE - EVERY VOW OR COMPLETION REPORTED BEYOND THIS POINT WILL COUNT FOR NEXT WEEK'S UPDATE!

 

UPDATED TO THIS POINT!

[Gemini]

Well, not complete but coming along. Primed, washed and dry brushed...

 

Now for the Cyber-bits and faces...

[TiguriusX]

Vow 1 part 2 of 3 complete

 

 

 

 

Next up is my wolf guard biker unit (which I can't find a left handed TH for might need to swap to a PF and decrease points or figure out a kitbash).

 

That should go quickly and wrap up my vow #1

I think the iron hands upgrade set is a left handed thunder hammer

Found it on ebay as part of a devastator pack

 

I need the pointing arms for my rapier weapons crew anyways so it works for me

 

[Gemini]

BROTHERS! I, Gemini, Declare my vow COMPLETE! Enjoy the pictures and I never want to paint that much white fur EVER AGAIN....

ETL VI - WEEK 9 UPDATE

[Jackalwolf]

Worry not. I am progressing. All armours done and moving into pelts and bronzes.

[Gemini]

OK I need some guidance here. I think I can get another SMALL vow done by the end of ETL. However that's NOT going to be more than 100 or 200 points. Would it be better for us to just leave things as they are or add another completion but hurt the groups VERY HIGH 'average vow' statistic? 

[PeteySödes]

With a savage howl I declare my vow complete!

 

I'll have more pics in my WiP thread so i dont spam the thread. Thanks so much Captain for putting this on, the motivation is outstanding. The completion rate the past two months has been my best in almost 20 years....
