2011 LPC

Recommended Posts

Hello folks!

 

If you haven't seen, the 2011 Librarium Painting Challenge has started and I was wondering who was going to do it this year. I have vowed to complete a pack of Blood Claws. Should be fun ;)

 

So, who's doing it (with the models you will paint)? :)

I participated in the last one and am now thinking about entering this year too. The only issue is - I have plenty of half-finished models, and LPC requires to start the job on "fresh" minis.

 

I couldn't see any mention of requiring fresh minis, in fact there is a 50% maximum stated within the rules :D

 

It does not matter what stage of completion the mini is in, as long as it is less than approximately 50% complete. Basecoat to unassembled to one Inquisitor's leg painted, all are welcome.

 

So I will be entering 2x TWC, 3x Rhinos, a 5x Grey Hunters, a 6x Long Fangs, and possibly 2x Rune Priests :D

Yeah, I checked that already - good, I might enter with some Long Fangs then.

 

Another question is - can we gather enough brothers here in the Fang to claim the sub-forum victory this time?

I, Skarvald the Troll-faced of the Space Wolves, vow on the honour of my Chapter to paint and present at least 10 Longs Fangs with Missile Launchers, 2 Long Fang Sergeants, 28 Grey Hunters, 4 Rhinos, 1 Vindicator, 5 Thunderwolf Cavalry, 2 Rune Priests and a Wolf Lord on a Thunderwolf (2,000 points of Space Wolves) on or before the 31st of March, 2011. I promise to provide at least two WIP updates, preferably with pictures, in that time. I vow that if I should fail, I will provide the Librarium with an article and wear the Signature of Shame until my penitence period is done.

 

Beat that ballsy vow.

I would take up such a vow, but I've only just got some test colours for the vow I made to paint the house over a year ago, but Space Wolves are much Cooler.

 

Does a Long Fang pack that I've nearly finished count :blush:

The official post, since it didn't go up here and an update on where the challenge stands :)

The 2011 Librarium Painting Challenge

It's the start of a new year and we all know that means it's time for the annual Librarium Painting Challenge (also known as the 'LPC'). Functioning as a chance for board members to make a New Year's Resolution to get some models painted by the end of March, the Librarium Painting Challenge offers both positive and negative motivation. The positive motivation is the promise of a newly minted Vow Complete signature, not to mention the glory and camaraderie of participating, while the negative motivation is the infamous Vow Failed signature and the requirement that you do an article for the Librarium (which is quite simple, really not much of a punishment;) ). So for anyone who received some models (board appropriate ones of course...) this Christmas and is yet to make a serious start on them, this is the perfect challenge for you :)

For full rules and information on how to enter, please click here. This is also the thread to pledge your vows. Please don't post your vows here, they won't count!

Once again, the Librarium Painting Challenge is also hosting a challenge within a challenge. This is the LPC Subforum Challenge. In this, every subforum is pitted against one another in competition to see who can get the most completed vows. The winning subforum receives the title of LPC Champions (and bragging rights of course :P), not to mention a subforum-specific Vow Completed signature. So get on board now and support your subforum! Remember that only completed vows count.. Will anyone be able to unseat the reigning champions, the supremely talented Blood Angels or will the fanged pretty boys (:P) have another year to lord it over the other subforums? You can make a difference!

If you want to view the fun, mayhem and camaraderie invested in the Librarium Painting Challenge, check out the previous year's Challenge. Don't miss out on this once in a year chance! So what are you waiting for? Sign your board name here, grab those dusty paints, open those Christmas boxes of space marines and join in!

Also, a small number of participation prizes have been added as announced here.

These will be given out in the following way:

  • One card to the person with the fanciest/funniest vow (please just leave your name, the subforum you're vowing for and the amount of models clear or in bold if you go for this)
  • One each to three people with the biggest completed vows
  • One each to eight randomly drawn people who have managed to complete their vows
  • One each to the first three people who get a Librarium article in after failing

So why haven't you entered yet? ;)

These 24 vows place the Wolves in fourth place, a mere 2 vows behind the Index Astartes in third position and a slightly larger 17 vows behind the leaders in the fanged pretty boys that go by the name of Blood Angels. Is there any here willing to take up the challenge for the chapter? All it takes is one model brothers!
