Arthanor Posted August 2, 2012 Share Posted August 2, 2012 My pictures don't seem to want to come up on the post... so here is the link to my gallery, the first four photos are my marshal and chaplain before and afters ETL vow It is because you are using the wrong url in your image tags, brother. If you click on the image in your gallery, on the right you will see a series of urls in boxes. You need to use the 3rd one, "Image link". For your convenience, here they are: (You can click to quote my post, which will show you what I did you make it work) Before: After: Those are huge pictures! But the models look good ;) even though the pics a little blurry.

Shades93 Posted August 2, 2012 Share Posted August 2, 2012 @arthanor: Much appreciated brother, Captain Semper has already accepted my vow as complete but thanks for the help! :) I'm not quite sure why they came out so big, maybe something to do with my phone camera? I really wish I had a better camera, the pics are so blurry :( Shades Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/252369-e-tenebrae-lux/page/33/#findComment-3139737 Share on other sites More sharing options...
tvih Posted August 2, 2012 Share Posted August 2, 2012 You're trying to take the pics from too close a distance, the phone camera probably can't focus to such a short distance.

Marshal Reinhard Posted August 2, 2012 Share Posted August 2, 2012 BTW is this a Tartaros I'm detecting under the Tech stuff? It just proves my point that they look more than an advanced power armour rather than true TDA... Good luck Reinhard - suffice to say I look fwd to see this guy complete... Indeed it is, Captain Semper. As with the Emperor's champion, a techmarine with servoharness has artificer armor granting them a +2 save. I've always felt most artificer armors weren't modeled to look "sturdy" enough for +2 save armor, so when tartaros terminators were released, I figured I'd use those to represent artificer armor. After I realized i wanted to do a conversion of Asterion Moloc to the Emperor's Champion anyway. There's also an obvious visual between the tartaros look and contemptor dreadnoughts, of which my techmarine currently has 4 of which to care for ;) Anyway, thanks everyone for the kind words on the Spartan. All in all it was a joy to work with the kit so i can heartily recommend it ;) And salutations and honours to everyone's completions. The amount and quality of each one does the Chapter proud.

Marshal Veyross Posted August 3, 2012 Share Posted August 3, 2012 Am I the only one practically giddy over the flood of awesome completions coming in? instead of the vows slowing with fatigue, the pace only seems to be increasing. This has been one hell of an event so far. Regardless if we win or lose, everyone in our little corner of the sub forum should feel incredibly proud of themselves. Well done brothers! And a toast to captain Semper for organising this juggernaut of an event that we are all enjoying so much butters in the fridge http://i1103.photobucket.com/albums/g475/Dean_Pappas/toast.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/252369-e-tenebrae-lux/page/33/#findComment-3139896 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't be silly... Thank you for bringing this to my attention. As it happens I had forgotten to update your fourth and I put a "Completion" to Reinhard's 5th instead of yours... ;) I think now it should be fine!

chaplaincliff Posted August 3, 2012 Share Posted August 3, 2012 ok all I just spent a good bit of time working out where we stand on our vows, and it does not look good. currently we have all of 35,654 points uncompleted with only 6,817 points fully completed, we NEED to get these vows done so we can clench this thing, but right now we have a few days left and a huge list of folks unfinished, if your name is on this list it means you have an incomplete in the list, please, please, please, check the thread and make sure you have sent in your completed post, if not you need to do this, otherwise paint paint paint. nards 08 brother darklight civsmitty reinhard ginger avenger marshal veyross honda brother ulkesh smirnov ryld roesor mystech1 gunrunr watanabe2k lysere larden grey knight purifier eberius darkscipio brother richard trask sir_isenhar silver wind dragon scotishsmurf96 raeven ray k my_face merc3065 marshal dovian marshal 2 crusaders marshal hadrarius marine lord exodore khornehunter57x head mook hart3856 daspanzeristuber brother uriel sanguis brother sellsword black_templar 85 arthanor anthraxus I hope this helps us get going where we need to go with this. if anyone else want more info on numbers I have spread sheets for our forums stuff so i can get any info or stats you may want.

Arthanor Posted August 3, 2012 Share Posted August 3, 2012 Hail Chaplain Cliff, While your zeal is indeed rightful in its direction towards our brethren with uncompleted vows (of which I am), Captain Semper's last weekly update stated we had 22k points completed and we are well ahead of other chapters. I'm guessing your claim rests on many not having completed their last vow yet (and thus potentially invalidating all the previous ones)? Have faith in your brothers! All those veterans of multiple vows know the weight they carry and will no doubt finish their last vow, no matter the cost. The shame (and the waste of all their previous vows), would be too great to bear.

chaplaincliff Posted August 3, 2012 Share Posted August 3, 2012 yeah, I do have all of the vows factored in for those that have any additional vows and removed them, this is what we would look like right now were the challenge to end, there are currently 18 brothers with vows outstanding with a total of 1000 points or more, these are vital to get us through the finish line where we want to.

Hah, been doing some of this as well. Regarding my vow, I will be finished (at 95% complete). I also have my last vow ready to go. Anyway, I will not let my Brothers down.

Brother Chaplain Ryld Posted August 4, 2012 Share Posted August 4, 2012 Brothers, heed the words of Chaplaincliff. Let no Vow go unfulfilled!! I too am nearing completion on my final Vow.

Naglfar Posted August 4, 2012 Share Posted August 4, 2012 +++ FEAR NOT DEATH, FOR YOU ARE DEATH INCARNATE +++ While I'm ashamed that I have been absent from the forums during the sign up period of this event. I can't help but be proud for being a Black Templar when seeing this show of force and quality in such a challenge. But as Brother-Chaplain Cliff have pointed out. The main boards COMPLETED numbers are misleading. Any unfinished vow chain will leave all the 'links in the chain' null and void. And while I don't know the status of other sub-forums in this regard, I'm sure we can all agree that 6.8k points is most likely not going to win much in the long run. So I feel I must appeal to your sense of duty and honor in this grand endeavor, to mind your time. Last minute completions will only get people's nerves frilled, and possibly leave someone disappointed if you miss the deadline. Chiefly yourself. The 10 days left at this point may seem like much. But as anyone who have operated with 'flexible plans' have experienced: Time can be very fluid. One moment you can feel as if you are drowning in it. Yet the next you can be in a desperate struggle to not waste the last precious drop. Temper conviction with wisdom, and zeal with patience. May your brushes strike true. +++ THE EMPEROR PROTECTS +++ Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/252369-e-tenebrae-lux/page/33/#findComment-3140770 Share on other sites More sharing options...
chaplaincliff Posted August 4, 2012 Share Posted August 4, 2012 I would say don't think about doing to many last minute vows at this point, 12 days though it may be we need to be smart and just vow small vows at this point to be intelligent.

Mystech1 Posted August 4, 2012 Share Posted August 4, 2012 Third Vow Complete Before: http://i1243.photobucket.com/albums/gg543/Mystech1/Models/P0000271.jpg After: The flash makes the gold details of the Artificer Armor hard to see, but they're there. Also the Bionics are hard to see but note the metal bump on his head and the metallics around the respirator. I guess the glowing blue eyes would justify that one as well. Also if that's not a Master Crafted Crozius, I don't know what is. :o http://i1243.photobucket.com/albums/gg543/Mystech1/Models/P0000318.jpg Showing Holy Orb of Antioch: http://i1243.photobucket.com/albums/gg543/Mystech1/Models/P0000319.jpg Showing Master Crafted Power Fist. Note details picked out in gold, again the flash makes it hard to see: http://i1243.photobucket.com/albums/gg543/Mystech1/Models/P0000320.jpg Holding off on a 4th Vow until I'm certain I have time to complete it.

Marshal Rohr Posted August 4, 2012 Share Posted August 4, 2012 If we've got something like 25,000 pts of vows done, how can we only be at 6,000 pts? Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/252369-e-tenebrae-lux/page/33/#findComment-3140787 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Naglfar Posted August 4, 2012 Share Posted August 4, 2012 If we've got something like 25,000 pts of vows done, how can we only be at 6,000 pts? Because if you have completed several vows, but still have one unfinished. None of them matter if that last one is not completed before the deadline. If you have completed 3k worth of vows, and re-vow again. Let's say another Emperors champion (because having one spare is a good thing, right?) and there is some funny business with the mail and it arrives late, or your dog eats every single brush in a miles radius or more. Bye bye 3k points worth of completed vows. To clarify: We are not saying the 'other 19k' is not worth noting. We are merely ushering caution to our valiant paint masters to not overextend themselves or their available time.

Captain Semper Posted August 4, 2012 Author Share Posted August 4, 2012 OK Mystech1, tables updated with your latest completion - well done! ;) @ BT team: The finale is going to be a complex affair - make no mistake! That's why I said I need time until the 19th (max) to work everything out... In the mean time, continue to do the Emperor's work! -_- ALSO CHECK THE TABLES - Make sure you're happy with htem - else bring matters to my attention!
