So, having painted everything BUT my L&T vow, I pulled my finger out today and busted out my Spartan, just the Cataphractii to go for my 1st vow,

It was a really hard decision for the Favourite this month between toaae's superbly painted Mephiston, and Dr_Ruminahui's outrageously colourful Dark Apostle and Disciples. After quite a bit of flipping between the submissions, join me in congratulating toaae, this months Favourite.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Campaign Summary

The Imperial Forces have maintained their numerical advantage, and have added more Attack / Defensive to their Forces, and have managed to complete 108 models for January, with Chaos completing 60 models, and Xenos completing 33 models.

The Imperium have managed to maintain their CP advantage too, earning 59CP for this month, 5 more than last month. The Chaos Forces managed to incease their CP this month to 31CP, with the Xenos Forces also increasing their CP to 22CP for the month.

Much the same as January, both the Chaos and Xenos Factions lack the number of participants to match the Imperium, perhaps the enemy of my enemy is my .... not enemy?

Hey bud, welcome back to the challenge

Thanks Grotsmasha!

 

 

My February vow is finally complete but I only got 2 guard finished.

[Givemead]

This lady is now based.

 

 

I've done a pic of the 4 Cultist of the Abyss set in my log.

[Arakos The Corruptor]

The Monarch strode forth from twisted space, armed with shining spear and celestial shield, ready to reap the souls of those who seek to defy the Lord of Pleasure.

The Hunter spoke, tones of wailing anguish, rapturous ecstasy and unbridled malice woven together into a twisted chorus of voices, echoing hauntingly through the night as the warrior stalked forwards, the ground writhing as if the world itself was in agony for each step taken, before falling still forevermore.

'I have returned!'

'And death has come for you.'

 

 

 

(Complete!)

[mactire]

February complete, more Gribblys added.

Old OneEye

Warrior Brood.

Might try and get back to some Wolves for March. Keep up the good work everyone.

[Majkhel]

Ha, at last they are completed. I declare my third vow complete:

[Arkhanist]

Life has got in the way the last couple of weeks, so I don't think I'm going to complete my Lord of Contagion this month. So it's just the 10 poxwalkers for February.

[Brother Cambrius]

In by the skin of my teeth (again...) but my first ever completed Ancient is done and so is my trio of Fuel Tanks:

So here we have Veteran Brother Paedhar Luman of the Vanquishers' Fourth "Resilient" Company:

"The Banner of the Resilient stands upon the soil of Voltronus. Let the degenerates of the Warp and the disgusting Xenos know who stands against them in the name of the Imperium! This fuel dump's resources are integral to the reclamation of the Inviolate Rage, the Banner of the Fourth will not fall from this point. Against all, we endure." - Veteran Paedhar Luman.

It'll likely be some more Primaris next month, but we shall wait and see.

February Complete

Commander Dante

[Kolgrim DeathHowl]

Great work everyone!! I've still got 2 Aggressors to finish just been dealing with some depression not wanting to paint but hopefully I can get through it soon to start the next month!

[Brother Captain Arkley]

I, Wolf Guard Einar , embark on the 12 Months of Hobby Challenge, and for the month of March pledge to complete 9 Imperial Knights, 2 Cerastus and 1 Poly to the defence of the Imperium Faction by month's end.

 

 

 

Yup this is a redo of all I have done so far....

Changing Houses?

[Axineton]

For March my vow is to paint 2 Deathwatch Intercessor Sergeants (They're Lieutenants really but I've rebased them on 32mm bases so now they're Sergeants )

One is  a Howling Griffon and the Other is a Silver Templar.

 

 

@Grotsmasha, how does the plogging along vow work? Do I just pledge a load of stuff? I don't really understand it and couldn't find any info.

Plodding Along is for larger projects that you don't intend on starting and finishing in the same month, Lords of War, Terrain etc. Mine is to work through my copious amounts of mkIV marines

[The_Chaplain]

I, The_Chaplain, pledge to complete one Warboss Zanzag (the warboss from the assault on Black Reach boxset) for the month of March in allegiance to the Xenos faction.

So if I pledged my Deathwatch army I picked up on ebay a few months back that needs painting and rebasing that would be considered a large project?

Yep :tu:

[Sabadin]

For the month of March I'll be working on this 5 man tactical support squad from my L&T vow, and seeing where things go from there.

[painting.for.my.sanity]

For March, I vow to finish Grimaldus and his three Cenobyte Servitors.

 

 

Now, I'm being a bit cheeky here, as those photos were taken a week ago (I knew I'd be really busy this weekend and wouldn't get a chance to take nice photos) and there's been a bit of progress since, but they're still not complete. Grimaldus is almost done, bar small touch-ups and fixing his candles (I've realised I did the flame gradient upside down), and the Servitors are still at the stage of blocking out colours that makes them look like they were painted by a four year old.

[Arkhanist]

I, Arkhanist, pledge to complete one Lord of Contagion for the month of March in allegiance to the Chaos faction. (yes, I barely got him started last month!)

 

[Llagos_Tyrant]

 

5 Cultists painted up and done. 5 more are about 60% done. Trying to plow through them and the Contemptor.

[The_Chaplain]

Was really shooting for a "Speed Demon" award for this month to help rack up points for the xenos faction, that said-- Zanzag is finished:

 

 

I, The_Chaplain, vow to complete one Grukk-Facerippa model for the month of March in allegiance to the Xenos faction:

 

I additionally would like to vow in a Plodding Along pledge the following: one Gorkanaut, one Ork Half Trakk, one Ork Big Trakk, one Ork Chinork Warkopta, one Ork Trukk, and one Ork Trukk with enclosed cab  in allegiance to the Xenos faction:
