+++E Tenebrae Lux II - Blood Angels Strategium+++

[Chaplain Admetus]

Stand ready... my painting's improved so much over the last few years that I've been eyeing up my entire collection for a strip-and-repaint job. The only question is, how brave do I feel!!!

[Alyssis]

I would like to see you as the bravest one of us all! Mostly because im kinda competative, and i want BA to win! ;)

+1 :)

I know you'll be brave, but remember you probably will need more time than before per model? Doing several thousand points is easy, but doing it to a high standard takes time.

Taking the easy road will naturally both aid this competition, but also put you in an excellent position for next years competition. ( strip again and repaint) :)

Just kidding. I'm looking forward to seeing your work and hopefully learn something new. :)

Updated my Wip thread with progress pics, 2 of the 20 sons of Sanguinius are complete.

On to further Glory for Sanguinius for the Emperor...

 

now where did i put that pot of red paint...

[sockwithaticket]

I sockwithaticket answer the call of E TENEBRAE LUX and vow to complete one Fragioso (w/ Heavy Flamer) and one Honour Guard Squad (w/ Blood Champion and two Power Fists) for the Crimson Tears (Codex: Blood Angels) for a total value of 320 points on or before August 15th.  Success will bring eternal glory to the Crimson Tears (and by association their parent chapter)  and failure will doom me to bear the Badge of Shame until the year-end.

The starting point photos are in my WIP thread on page 6. There are a couple of licks of paint here and there on the Honour Guard already, but believe me, they are at best about 1% started.

[Captain Semper]

And the first completion for our brothers in red armour! Well done mandaloriano - well done indeed!

 

 

Now completions is one thing - but by far the most important factor right now is to get more recruits in! Anyone brave enough?

[mandaloriano]

I Mandaloriano answer the call of E TENEBRAE LUX for a second time and vow to complete One squad of Three Bikes (1 Plasma Gun) and One squad of Five terminators (1 Heavy Flamer) from Blood Angels Codex of total value 310 pts on or before August 15th. Success will bring eternal glory to Angels Encarmine (and by association, their Blood Angel brethren) and failure will doom me to bear the Badge of Shame until the year-end.

 

Tomorrow I will post the pics in my wip thread!!!!

[Captain Semper]

So who's gonna follow Mandaloriano's example? Most importanlty who's gonna join the BA effort and fight for the legacy of Sanguinious?

 

You need more recruits if you are to maintain your competitive advantage...

 

 

 

NEW COVER ART EVERYBODY -  COURTESY OF THE SHADOW GUARD!

 

Hope you guys like it!

keeping the vows small so I know I will finish them, hoping to do at least 4 if not use up all 5.

[Taranis]

Good to see and hear, Brother. You and few others lead the way. Now the rest of us need to get our rear in gear! :tu:

[A Son of Sanguinius]

Updated pics in my WIP thread.  Tac squad finished and bike squad finished.  Moving to the librarian next for a small break from batch painting.

 

Link to my pics is in my signature. 

[Captain Semper]

That's cool! And don't forget - all partiicpants may wear the Oath of Moment that can be found in the first post! ;)

[Memento Of Prospero]

Vow Updated! Keep on truckin' Brothers!

 

Motivation for all!

 

[teblin]

If I've already painted stuff I guess I can't enter it? My Sternguard, Land Raider and ASMs have all been finished, but quite recently. :l

[Captain Semper]

Unfortnately no. The main purpose of the ETL is to motivate people to paint their armies... So at the time you place your vow all your relevant miniatures must be unpainted or primed or in very early stages of painting. I hope you find something you can enter with - but remember: it must be a Codex-legal unit!

+++THIRD WEEKLY UPDATE+++

 

 

Introducing the “Oath of Moment” banner! (read more inside)

[teblin]

Can units be Forgeworld if on their reference sheet it says they are a Codex option?

[Captain Semper]

Yes you can! Provided the unit is meant for 40k use (i.e. not Apoc-only).
