if he doesnt count, lets just make him another poxwalker "champion" lol. No worries.

[Dwango]

I'm liking all the new vows and completions. Things are looking good!

Just a quick progress report. The fallen are nearly done and the Vcrawler has been started with its base almost finished.

+++ETL VII - WEEK 5 UPDATE+++

[gianlucafiorentini123]

Ok so my vow is now finished with pics coming tomorrow. Quick question would I be better vowing a knight before or after the new codex drops at the weekend, how are our points going to be affected?

[Dr_Ruminahui]

It looks like they may be slightly more expensive (see this thread: http://www.bolterand...-point-changes/).  That said, the price difference is minimal, and if vowing now lets you get more stuff painted, that's likely the best approach.

I would send Captain Semper a PM and just ask. Maybe just put up your vow now, and include the points later on?

[gianlucafiorentini123]

Ok Vow 1 complete (bases to be done with the rest of my vows at the end).

 

 

 

 

 

Thanks for the replies guys, if the differences are going to be minimal I'll leave the knight for later vows as he is still to be assembled.

A little update on vow #2

[MaliGn]

And an update on my second vow: got the reds do e on my greater possessed.

[ChazSexington]

My Greater Possessed is finally getting there! Took me a while to work out the skin tone, but happy with this. Highlights to go!

[CMDR_Welles]

Had a bit of a setback. Was on a new antidepressant for a while, and things were finally starting to feel normal again. The ever present weight was slightly lifted. I hadnt felt that good in a very long time...

And then, it was like I hit a brick wall... Which then fell on top of me... I've had this happen before, and it usually gets better after a week or two, and it either helps, or it doesnt.

But then, I had an adverse reaction that put me in the ER over the weekend. Home, and doing better, though I don't feel like doing anything most of the time. At least I'm not dying at the moment.

I don't have any progress to show since my last post. If I am up for it, maybe I'll try again this weekend. We'll see.

Sorry

[Darnok]

Take your time and get well soon. Private life and health is always more important than little plastic dollies!

 

I just had about two weeks of depressive moods myself, things are yet to get better. Nothing as drastic as your case, but it slowed my painting down considerably. What actually did help was getting at least a bit of painting done each day.

 

Keep going, and whenever you find the time to be back here: we will be around for you.

[Prot]

Nice work everyone!

 

I completed my Vow: The Heldrake and now my leader of the Soulforged Pack: The Lord Discordant (third one by the way!)

 

[gianlucafiorentini123]

Amazing work Prot! Really vivid colours without being garish, how did you manage the purple on the shoulder pad if you don't mind me asking?

[Prot]

Thanks. It's just airbrushed. A few dark purples, building up to a highlight purple/pink. 

[Darnok]

Just awesome! Once more you give me this "damn, I never want to paint again"-feeling - but please never stop!

 

What's up next? A Knight maybe?

[Isengrin]

Great work so far guys, all those completed vows look really nice. Let's keep it up!

 

After some delays I finally got around to painting my Lord and pulled it through in the last three evenings. Hopefully the Blood Angel on the base will be a harbinger of the ETL results. 

 

[Prot]

Amazing work Isengren.

Darnok, thanks a lot. A Knight is quite possibly next!

[Darnok]

That lord is a work of art, expertly done!

[AHorriblePerson]

Just wanted to show some proof that I am working on my vow:

Hidden Content

 

 

I had hopes to finish him much earlier, but that sadly didn't happen.

 

@Isengrin: That chaos lord is amazing!

[Captain Semper]

Great progress guys, and some amazing work to boot!

 

Can someone help with Eldrick's vow? If not, Eldrick PM me to discuss....

Sorry? What are you talking about? Great well soon man, that's all that matters... It appears you've gone through a lot, focus on your health and make sure you're back to normal ASAP. The rest will follow!

 

UPDATED TO THIS POINT!

[Putrid Choir]

@Prot I almost want to have babies with your Lord Discordant he's so pretty. Nice job!

[Dragonlover]

I need a mid-week day off, I'm just not used to having both days of the weekend free and it's thrown off my entire hobby rhythm. I'm hoping my actual work schedule kicks in next week which will include said days off, but in the mean time I'm unexpectedly home on Saturday so I'm gonna try and get over the hump and finish off squad one and a character. I'm also considering taking stuff to work, there's a GW round the corner so I may as well take advantage of it right?

 

@CMDR_Welles: Mate, you're doing awesome! Rest up, we'll see you when you're well!

 

@everyone: Sorry I've not been bringing my usual enthusiasm, this whole full time work lark is crucifying me. Also I don't have internet access at work. All your stuff looks amazing though!

As someone who also has some mental health problems, I totally know how new med adjustments and tweaks go. I hope you get to where you need to be for yourself. Fingers crossed for you brother.

 

Vow progress:

 

 

Squad done! Just a little bit more of a push, and vow 1 will be done, and I think I'll be able to pull out a second vow as well.

[Dr_Ruminahui]

Those are great!
