Captain Semper Posted March 26, 2012 Author Share Posted March 26, 2012 Actually Droma I think you missed 2 ;). There are currently 27 officially recognized DA completions. There are a further two (Darkerst Angel and Brother Immolator) that reported after the last update which will bring the total to 29. And we have four brothers that have reported completions here but have yet to report them to the official LPC thread in the PCA forum. As a reminder these are: Grand Master Neo Gillyfish Lord Hail Stuka06 Guys you need to report your completions to the official LPC thread here. All that's required is to make a new post stating you completed your vow and add a link to your WIP thread. As regards our "rivals" :blink: the next big three are currently: BT's with 13 completions of which 2 were reported after the last update, the BAs with 8 completions (what happened there guys?) and the IA with 6. Now though is the final week, so expect completions to be reported left right and centrer! ;) Lets keep up the pressure though and win in a landslide victory.

The Shadow Guard Posted March 26, 2012 Share Posted March 26, 2012 I just dropped by the Blood ANgels and BT forums to check out how they were doing with their vows. Is ee that a couple of our brethren had beaten me to it. In the Blood Angels Forum I found our esteemed Captain Semper, very chivalrously aiding our Blood Brothers in counting their completed vows. Alas at the moment it appears that they only have completed 8 Vows officially. Now, given the secretive nature of the Blood Angels in guarding their secrets perhaps Captain Semper is trying to lull them in to complacency and reveal any alst minute compeltions thay have hidden away and want to deep strike along with their Land raiders!! :blink: In the BT Forum, I actuall found our own moderator par excellence, Gillyfish, exhorting the BT Brethren to submit more vows at the beginning of the event. No doubt hoping that, goading more in to participating at the last moment would end up with mor eincomplete vows.... ;) Subtle manipulation of the "Mind Worm" power at work eh? <_< SG Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/246521-librariums-painting-challenge-2012-phase-ii/page/10/#findComment-3024417 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grotsmasha Posted March 26, 2012 Share Posted March 26, 2012 @ Grotsmasha: Go for it! The honorary 20%!!! Hahahaha!!! So what's in the pipeline? I've got 3 minis, a counts-as Azrael, a Company Veteran and another Contemptor. They're all undercoated with the red base coat on the arms completed this morning.

Brother Kovash Posted March 26, 2012 Share Posted March 26, 2012 I did some work today: This will put me at 96%. I'll have finished my vow either tonight or tomorrow morning.

Captain Semper Posted March 27, 2012 Author Share Posted March 27, 2012 @ Brother Kovash: You're updated to 96% Brother! Now let's see this vow finished! Eternal Glory To The First Legion! @ Grotsmasha: It looks kind of ambitious mate... The Contemptor alone would be challenge (please, PLEASE, don't rush it), let alone two prominent characters!!!

Grotsmasha Posted March 27, 2012 Share Posted March 27, 2012 It maybe a little ambitious but there'll be no cut corners. They'll be upto the standard of the rest of the LPC. I'm helping myself out motivation wise, a personal challenge. EDIT: Also, since most of the armour is black, the bulk of the work is the reds and metals, which I can typically get a nice result quickly. That and I've Fri and Sat off for a last minute effort.

Brother-Captain Sharp Posted March 27, 2012 Share Posted March 27, 2012 Progress is being made, but the bikes presented a harder paint then I had first supposed. Still, I expect to be done with the bikes by tomorrow and onto the final model. Just a few more days to go! http://i273.photobucket.com/albums/jj236/sesharp/2012-03-27041604-1-1.jpg http://i273.photobucket.com/albums/jj236/sesharp/2012-03-27041637-1-1.jpg http://i273.photobucket.com/albums/jj236/sesharp/2012-03-27041656-1-1.jpg http://i273.photobucket.com/albums/jj236/sesharp/2012-03-27041705-1-1.jpg http://i273.photobucket.com/albums/jj236/sesharp/2012-03-27041913-1-1.jpg http://i273.photobucket.com/albums/jj236/sesharp/2012-03-27041853-1-1.jpg For the Lion!

Brother dean Posted March 28, 2012 Share Posted March 28, 2012 Soooo... There's an extra credit thing? I didnt know I would own a pod when I pledged but I've painted one... How do I add it in Captain? I should be able to finish it up before the weekend. http://i172.photobucket.com/albums/w20/fred40k2002/Dark%20Angels/pod.jpg http://i172.photobucket.com/albums/w20/fred40k2002/Dark%20Angels/DSCN9471.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/246521-librariums-painting-challenge-2012-phase-ii/page/10/#findComment-3026035 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother Kovash Posted March 28, 2012 Share Posted March 28, 2012 Brother dean that's a very nice looking Drop Pod, great job! As for extra credit, I think that's just a few people doing some extra within the allotted time frame. As for my work, vow complete! My WIP thread is in my sig, but here's a quick peek at my last model: Put me at 100% Captain.

Captain Semper Posted March 28, 2012 Author Share Posted March 28, 2012 All Hail the 35th Hero of the Chapter - Brother Kovash!!! This has been a most excellent effort Brother - Congratulations! Furhtermore with Brother Kovash's 35th completion we have crossed the 67% completion rate! 2/3rds of the total vows pledged by the DA sub-forum have been completed! What now? we done? No! That's heretic talk! Now we shoot for 3/4ths! Let's get 75% completed!!! That translates to 39 completions or 4 more! The deadline is Saturday so we are a bit tight - but not to worry! DAs can handle pressure better than anybody else! And as a bonus we'd be "tableing" the IA guys - the 4th largest sub-forum in terms of vow submissions! Do we have it in us? I KNOW we do! So let's get the 75% level done brothers! For the Emperor and the Lion! @ Brother dean and anybody else that seek to add to their vows, I beleive this is possible. You have have to add to your vow officially though, through a post in the official LPC thread saying you are adding to your vow. I base my opinion on this post by Brother Tyler - see below: From this point on there should be no changes other than adding to your vow. The only additional vows that will be accepted are those that may have been posted in parent forums without being posted here - and those will only be accepted if they are quoted (meaning the date of the original pledge is shown here for verification). Good luck, everyone! Now it'll be better to confirm with the Mods (our own Gillyfish is also involved along with Brother Tyler and Sigismund Himself) that my reading is correct. However keep in mind that if you change your vow, you are accountable for the new elements as well, i.e. the risk of failing is "rejuvenated". Just for the record neither Elmo nor Grotsmasha (that is now committed to more painting) incorporated their extra minis in their official vow (although Elmo mentioned his intention to complete an additional squad in his original vow, he made it clear it was not part of his vow). So the extra 20% bonus is more like an unofficial "Honour Mark" - a purity seal if you like ;)- among our Unforgiven brothers to commend the dedication they are showing until the LPC is over... In fact I think the 20% is kind of meaningless since in the case of Elmo it should be even more (he pledged 15 minis in total and completed another 10 on top - and keeps going! :pirate:). But since people vow all kinds of things, making percentages very difficult to calculate (I'd say rendering them meaningless), I'll substitute the extra "20%" with a purity seal! So: I'll be happy to award the SEAL of PURITY to anyone that will complete more than they vowed for until Saturday - no need to add to your official vow! Unless people want to of course! :P Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/246521-librariums-painting-challenge-2012-phase-ii/page/10/#findComment-3026171 Share on other sites More sharing options...

During the weekend I suffered 2 forms of calamity. 1. 2 exploding tires on the highway ... no worries I am fine minimal car damage. 2. Person giving me spare tires ignored my request to put the tires behind my seats on the floor board and put them on the bag containing my marines. :o ;) :o While there are still a few days remaining for this, I won't promise this will get repaired/done with the few hours of time i have left this week after working...

Captain Semper Posted March 28, 2012 Author Share Posted March 28, 2012 OK skink! way to go - I remeber your post, the LPC certainly got you going! So we have Grotsmasha and Brother dean in the game for a Purity Seal - anybody else? :P Now Order of the Dragon, this is a sad story indeed! I sure hope you get everything back together and fiinish your vow - even if you miss the deadline! BTW having two tires giving up on you is really bad luck! Good news you were unharmed (or anybody else for that matter). Now you give me the name and address of this tire person and I'll have Asmodai on his case pronto! :lol: Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/246521-librariums-painting-challenge-2012-phase-ii/page/10/#findComment-3026559 Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamesI Posted March 28, 2012 Share Posted March 28, 2012 I'd like to report that the Blood Angels are going for stealth and will announce 40 or so completions this weekend. I don't think its going to happen, several seem likely but no where near the number of vows. Well done Dark Angels.

Grotsmasha Posted March 28, 2012 Share Posted March 28, 2012 A purity seal is soooooo much better than an extra 20%. Pics when I get home, but it's mostly just eyes and purity seals across all 3 minis and two swords, I'm feeling confident.

Brother Immolator Posted March 28, 2012 Share Posted March 28, 2012 Does my unannounced extra marine count for the purity seal award? :P Had to ask! Anyways.just as expected our brothers made the chapter proud.Regardless of whether we reach 75% i believe we have already tabled the competition with spirit alone!Well done my brothers! I'd like to report that the Blood Angels are going for stealth and will announce 40 or so completions this weekend. I don't think its going to happen, several seem likely but no where near the number of vows. Well done Dark Angels. Seems a little bit hard to believe me thinks.
