So here are the five Grey hunters I vowed to complete, along with the Wolf Priest sans backpack.

 

I have posted a picture with the two options I am considering for his pack, but I wanted the opinion of my wolf brothers before I go ahead with the painting. The Wolfpack seems the obvious choice, but I REALLY like the eaglehead pack a lot!! Let me know what you think!!

As you can see, I am having great difficulty with painting eyes. I hope it comes with practice, and SOON!!

 

I will be posting the Wolf Guard in TDA soon, to complete this vow.

Vow complete, I didnt think I was gonna make this one but I got a huge second wind while painting the termie. I will be looking into painting a WolfWing List in the future

 

What is the backstory to these? I like the looks of them.

 

You can find the fluff for my army in the DIY Forum. They are called the Chained Lions. I apprecciate the comments.

Just started playing again after being away for at least 10 or more years. I think last time I played was Second Gen, going on to 3rd, I think.

 

But will be joing the vow for Sept thru Oct vow. Right now, just getting minis together, and finding my play style, then will pick what I like and start there. Will probably pick a troop type, just due to it also has been a long time since I painted minis also, and would rather have the growing pains on them, than the heroes. :(

 

Will post once I get an idea. But for Oct 1st due date, will either be a 6 man unit of Grey Hunters with Razorback, or a unit of Bloodclaws with vehicle.

This could be a close one. 9 days left and I have to paint a Rune Priest, Wolf Lord, Dreadnought, Drop Pod and 5 Wolf Scouts! Luckily the Rune Priest and Dreadnought are ready for painting and the Wolf LOrd is half built. Tomorrow I hope to do the Amour and metal on the Priest and Dread and do the arms for the Wolf Lord and doors of the Drop Pod.

 

I'll need to drop something to get more GW time though, hmmm... Tv or Homework...

I didn't publish my oath when this thread began, but I did hit my painting hard and heavy thanks to everyone's example. My 2000pt force is nearly complete. Here are a few of my GH's. I published my armor in the main SW painting thread up top. 1 and a half GH packs left to paint, then 2 thunderwolf conversions and I'll be done! I hope to do all my GH's by 1 Sept.

3 more squads off the list please! I have now finished my Grey Hunters (led by He-man :P ), Brother Ancient Skeld Wolfkin (Ven. Dread.), and Brother Rune Priest Thorvald Daemonbane. I am also please to announce that the Drop Pod is half done and Sven himself is nearly built, all that leaves is the 5 Wolf Scouts! But enough of the future lets look to the present and my newly done models:

You'll notice there is not Battle Damage and that the shoulder pads are mostly blank, but that is because to make the deadline I may need to miss them out :( but they will be painted to a good standard for gaming!!! Also the bases are getting done as a whole army thing at the end.

C&C welcome

So I've finished the Drop Pod! Yay! Just 6 models to do... in 4 days!!!

But enough of my dilemmas, here is the Drop Pod.

I took some WiP shots to show the interior first, sorry about the bad quality I just quickly snapped these before I went to bed.

This Drop Pod shall be for my Wolf Guard and Wolf Lord and so has been converted to have larger harnesses:

gallery_49580_4975_313966.jpg

The Minimap I painted onto it, you can also see the harnesses better:

gallery_49580_4975_2441058.jpg

And here's the finished Pod:

gallery_49580_4975_449744.jpg

Now, there is a slight issue with the door seeing as I had to convert the harnesses, oops:

"Dear passengers this is your Machine Spirit speaking. I am afraid to announce that the cabin may heat up slightly as we enter the planet's atmosphere as we are having some issues with the doors. We apologies for this minor incovenience and hope you chose to drop with us again, thank you."

C and C welcome as always.

Till the next time

Good job, brothers! I've been busy in my private life so I was not updating the status of challenge and letting You all paint :tu:. I've finished my Logan and making final touches on Njal, though they way they are now, I like Logan much more. Still, I plan to finish Njal tomorrow and then post their pics.

So, after beeing mighty busy, I finally completed my vow half an hour ago. Sadly, it seems that photobucket is no longer allowed here.......why may I ask?

Maybe this works...

Cain, Ive completed my vow, dunno if you saw the pics I posted up a couple of pages back. Just letting you know so you can up date the front page accordingly :D

 

Cheers buddy!

 

 

Noted!

 

I was updating the status yesterday late at night, so I just looked at the last couple of pages. Anybody else who is missing on the Vow complete list, just let me know or PM me. Since we have so much pics and posts recently, the whole thread is a bit difficult to manage and things may slip past my attention :)

Thanks for the kind words brother. I was thinking about the same DP conversion, but saw the error in my plan coming :) .

That stein was indeed a good one and got refilled a few times ;) .

I had a lot of fun with this, thanks to Cain The Hunter for all the effort, have some ale!

But can anyone tell me why it said photobucket was no longer allowed as a link???

Anyway, whenever there is another challenge, count me in.

 

*Raises his mighty stein in salute to his brothers*
