Dosjetka Posted March 1, 2017 Share Posted March 1, 2017 Sons of Dorn, The Eye of Terror has opened yet again. Tzeentch's daemonic legions, the treacherous Thousand Sons, and even their twisted Daemon-Primarch Magnus, have emerged from the Warp and are causing untold destruction to the worlds around Cadia. The Imperial Fists and their successors, stalwart defenders of the Imperium and its people, the Emperor's Praetorians, must push back this tide of horrors and liberate as many Imperial worlds as they can. Round up your neophytes, fire up your forges, arm your battle-brothers! The time of ending is near and the sons of Dorn shall not be found wanting... Start: Wednesday 1st MarchEnd: Friday 31st March @ 23:59 GMT/UTCHow it works: 1) You look at your collection and pick at least one model to paint. The selected models can be assembled, undercoated and/or basecoated with their main colour. No more. If unsure, ask me. I reserve the right to disqualify models which do not stick to this rule. 2) Take a picture of these models, upload it to an online gallery (preferably B&C), and post it in this thread along with a vow stating the number of models to complete by the 31st March and any other details you deem to be relevant (be creative). Once you've made your vow, no changes to it can be made unless I approve those changes (so send me a PM if you need to change something). 3) Paint the models to at least a basic, three-colour standard within the given timeframe (no obligation to base the models but highly encouraged). The colour scheme must be either from the Imperial Fists Chapter/Legion, an official successor, a DIY successor, or the Deathwatch Chapter (but with one shoulder pad painted in the colours of a son of Dorn). No other Chapters shall be allowed. 4) Once finished, take the best pictures you possibly can, upload them, and post them here for all to see. 5) If you have completed your vow, make a second/third/fourth/fifth/sixth/seventh/eighth/ninth/etc vow and continue to bring glory to yourself! 6) Patiently wait the end of the event and the publication of the end results. 7) During the whole while, have fun! Last but not least, if you have any questions, feel free to ask them here or to PM me! Now, let us prepare for war and give Chaos a good kick in the teeth.

AndrewChristlieb Posted March 1, 2017 Share Posted March 1, 2017 Woot, I vow to paint one Devastator Squad with 2x grav cannons, 2x bolters, 1x Sergeant with combigrav, and a drop pod.

Zopha Posted March 1, 2017 Share Posted March 1, 2017 Just on the bases, I've painted a set of sector imperialis bases a while ago so I'd have them all done and out of the way. Can I use them for this challenge or will they need to be at the same painting stage as the model?

ChoooChoooTemplar Posted March 1, 2017 Share Posted March 1, 2017 My vow has 4 components, Templar Brethren Squad (6 marines), Sternguard Squad (7 marines), Vanguard Squad (6 marines) and Sigismund, so 1 part per week with a little extra at the end! All primed grey and ready to go. Unfortunately my Vanguard Squad is already short 1 marine and is down to 6 due to a foul xenos plot involving a superglue spill!

When the Renascibilitas Crusade was in need, the Fists were there with supplies and good will, with nought asked for in return. Now, we make good on our oaths. For the first of my vows, I pledge to paint a Reclusiarch of the Black Templars - may his ZEAL drive us on to greater feats! I will complete this by March 31st, by Dorn and by Sigismund.

Semper Fortis Posted March 2, 2017 Share Posted March 2, 2017 I, Semper Fortis, rise to the challenge of Walls Fail, Fists Do Not and vow to complete one Legion Techmarine on or before 31 March 2017 at 2359 Zulu. Success will bring eternal glory to Dorn and to the Emperor. Failure is not an option. And there would be a picture of said paint-less techmarine uploaded if I wasn't still without power after last night's storm. Will post as soon as the power company works their way up my mountain. @paulJam, almost spit coffee on the dog when I read your oath. Dog is still staying clear of me.

Dosjetka Posted March 2, 2017 Author Share Posted March 2, 2017 + Participants list updated to this point. + (Was there a default vow? I didn't see one). Nope. It is up to people to come up with whatever wording they think is suitable for their vow. Makes a nice (though not permanent) change , I think. Just on the bases, I've painted a set of sector imperialis bases a while ago so I'd have them all done and out of the way. Can I use them for this challenge or will they need to be at the same painting stage as the model? Bases are not taken into consideration in this event so you're good to go! (The theme of these vows will be 'Stuff I could only make with bits I got from Dosjetka' ) I can't even remember what I sent you... Update on the Hurscarl... satin varnish applied and ready for weatherin Did I miss it or have you not made a vow, brother? And last but not least... To all: Welcome! Thank you for signing up, may Dorn shield your mind against distraction, temptation, and procrastination, and may the Emperor guide your brushes!

Augustus b'Raass Posted March 2, 2017 Share Posted March 2, 2017 Alright, I'm in! I, Augustus b'Raass, vow on the honour of the Emperor, Dorn and my humble self to paint one ten-man squad of Assault Marines with two flamers and a veteran sergeant armed with an eviscerator and meltabombs, and a ten-man squad of Devastators with four Grav-Cannons and grav amps, for a total of 460 points during this event.

My entire Imperial Fists army in fact has been named by frater from the B&C, which to me is an inspiration and motivation, and a way to show thanks for that to everyone in the B&C that shares their thoughts and ideas here on the forum. Now, two of the assault squad (a flamer weapon specialist and a sword brother) and eight of the devastator squad (all except the sergeant and vexilarius) remain unnamed. And where better to get names for Imperial Fists than in an event dedicated to our favourite chapter/legion?So please, if anyone wants to claim a brother, all you have to do is comment in this thread or in my WiP with a claim on a specific marine, and a name, and I'll induct it in this list (and in this master list). As for naming conventions, here's my thoughts on that: Hidden Content The Imperial Fists are quite obviously based on Prussian culture, and as such I´m shooting for mostly Prussian-Germanic sounding names. That doesn´t mean that they all have to be that way - far from it: The Imperial Fists recruit from many worlds, and so their names should reflect that. It´s why there´s a sergeant Zol´Tara and a Techmarine called Torias Khation in the army. I actually try to stay away from purely modern sounding Germanic names. So if you like to name a dude in my army (welcome to it - to me it's very inspiring and motivational, and I am very grateful to the more than 60 frater who have done so up to now) please think about what 30 millennia (my Fists are situated in 32K, the time of the The Beast Arises novel series) will do to given and family names. 38,000 years of mispronounciations, misspellings, evolving consonants and vowel shifts will turn a name like Janus Brand into Dumes Blin, and Volkert Schmidt into Vocki Spud. Here's the open slots: XIV Assault Squad Weapon Specialist (Flamer) - XII Devastator Squad Vexillarius - Heavy Weapon Specialist (Grav Cannon) -Heavy Weapon Specialist (Grav Cannon) -Battle Brother - Vexillarius - Heavy Weapon Specialist (Grav Cannon) -Heavy Weapon Specialist (Grav Cannon) -Battle Brother - Thanks! And good luck to all participating frater (I'll edit the pictures for the devastators in when I complete them.)
