Boomkapow Posted April 19, 2013 Share Posted April 19, 2013 I...Boomkapow..., answer the challenge of the Unforgiven and vow to complete 9 death company (7 ccw/pistol and 2x Power Fist/pistol) and a Chaplain from Codex: Blood Angels of total value of 330 points on or before May 18. Success will bring eternal glory to the Blood Angels and failure will doom me to bear the sign of damnation until the year-end. Expect pics in the near future! -Boomkapow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taranis Posted April 19, 2013 Share Posted April 19, 2013 Ooooooh you have me running and looking. Where did you find the challenge? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boomkapow Posted April 21, 2013 Author Share Posted April 21, 2013 Honestly I just saw the same Vow in a few other posts and figured that was the format. No idea what the challenge is a reference to. Any-who, here is a painting update: http://i1187.photobucket.com/albums/z384/boomkapow1/dc.jpg I know the pic is kinda crap but i had to make due with my iphone camera My buddy is making a table so I will wait until that is done before I start basing them. Also, was going to have them all with jump packs, but they were too pricey, so I am putting them in a Rhino instead (pictured above). The regular jump packs are in the mail and will be swapped out as soon as they show up and are painted. Again, sorry for the crap picture, but it at least proves I am making headway with this squad.

Taranis Posted April 21, 2013 Share Posted April 21, 2013 ETL was an competition between forums. Your models and painting look good! I especially like the bright colours breaking up the dc dark. :) Beautiful. DA part: http://www.bolterandchainsword.com/topic/252368-e-tenebrae-lux/?hl=%20tenebrae BA part: http://www.bolterandchainsword.com/topic/252370-e-tenebrae-lux/?hl=%2Btenebrae Black Templar, the winners: http://www.bolterandchainsword.com/topic/252369-e-tenebrae-lux/?hl=%2Btenebrae The final report: http://www.bolterandchainsword.com/topic/259168-e-tenebrae-lux-the-final-report/ Points painted in total across the boards: 174,649 pts. That's almost the equivalent of 700 landraiders or 4370 Terminators. I won't calculate I scouts...... I have a hope and a feeling that there will be another challenge in the near future so be ready and feast your eyes on last years epic event.

Boomkapow Posted April 21, 2013 Author Share Posted April 21, 2013 Cool. Thanks for the clarification and sorry for the confusion. Yea, here's hoping there's another. I would love to participate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taranis Posted April 21, 2013 Share Posted April 21, 2013 I know how you feel. :) Still no problem in a painting blog/WIP tread. You'll need it sooner or later anyhow. :) (Work In Progress) Last year it was announced 14 may. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jolemai Posted April 22, 2013 Share Posted April 22, 2013 Phew! Here I thought that the Unforgiven were spot testing our Members to see if they were in fact Fallen Marines in disguise. Good thing too, as I was about to report them... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leonaides Posted April 22, 2013 Share Posted April 22, 2013 I'd keep an eye on them just in case though. Cant trust those First Legion sneaky sneaksters... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Firepower Posted April 23, 2013 Share Posted April 23, 2013 I had to pop in just because the thread title is so catchy, like a little limerick! But now that I'm here, neat! But the red crosses on the tank in particular could use a bit of tidying up. And why yellow for mud effects? It's like the tank went driving through a field of flowers and got caked in pollen. Death to the tulips!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boomkapow Posted April 23, 2013 Author Share Posted April 23, 2013 The mud is actually brown but for some reason looks yellow because of the camera flash. And yea, the red "x" on the tank will get some touching up. I finished it at like 3am so my painting was a little suspect at that time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boomkapow Posted May 4, 2013 Author Share Posted May 4, 2013 Hey all! No updates lately but I'm back to painting. I was curious how everybody felt about me painting a dreadnought instead of a chaplain. I just decided that my 1500 list that I am building towards would not include a chappy and, since the dred would be more painting anyways, I thought I would show that its not because of laziness. Let me know how you all feel about this. Thanks, -Boomkapow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taranis Posted May 4, 2013 Share Posted May 4, 2013 No problem with me. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leonaides Posted May 4, 2013 Share Posted May 4, 2013 Go for it... Maybe paint the Chaplain up as well if you get the time? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boomkapow Posted May 7, 2013 Author Share Posted May 7, 2013 The Fragioso is done! Woohoo! http://i1187.photobucket.com/albums/z384/boomkapow1/fragioso.jpg Let me know what you all think. Pretty simple, but I think it came out alright. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boomkapow Posted May 7, 2013 Author Share Posted May 7, 2013 So i guess this vow is complete. And believe me, there will be more in the future! I also will try to get that chaplain painted at some point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boomkapow Posted May 10, 2013 Author Share Posted May 10, 2013 Should I make my next vow here or make a new post? And how do I get the "vow complete" sig? If I fail a vow it will obviously be replaced...just curious though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taranis Posted May 10, 2013 Share Posted May 10, 2013 Getting the vow is currently difficult as the awarding competition isn't running..... So one option is making your own badge for completion, calling it something flashy. Being awarded battlefield medals requires a war. There is currently no painting war, but I'm quite confident that there soon will be one. :) Patience. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
