My pretties....

[Uprising]

Sadly with current events, real life, and changes in my life, I will not be able to finish my vow.  Its pains me, but I have more pressing matters then painting miniatures atm.  I will atone this failure next ETL. 

[Teetengee]

Do what you have to Uprising, no worries here.

Real life first mate.

[Noctus Cornix]

Sadly I believe I must also bow out. I will try my best tomorrow to see how much I can get done but after that I will have no time or access to my models. I am sorry for failing you, brothers.

[Akylas]

In progress shot of Janus the -insert proper Slaaneshy title here-, ally and biker lord of the Hands of Fate warband. I'm out of town on vacation so getting this guy done will be an interesting task to say the least. Will be working on him tonight.

[Teetengee]

Hrm.. Slynt? He is wearing gold after all.

[Augustus b'Raass]

Yay! I moved house and am still waiting for my interent provider to provide. IN the mean time I borrowed some wifi from my new neighbours. So on with the cheering! :D

Plague Hulk is complete. Sadly I will not be able to meet all the promises I made and double my vow... But I swear by the Dark Gods my first vow WILL be completed!

Hol'Staligrath, the Sand Weaver

In ancient text across many species and civilizations there have been tales of the 'Sand Weaver'. Though his name varies in each and every language, the tale most often remains the same. The Weaver is a being that protects the children from the darkness, fending off nightmares and ghouls from the little ones as they slumber, a mere dash of his dust and their sleep would be filled with wonderful dreams. Hol'Staligrath was that Sand Weaver. In a time long ago, he was among the most venerated of Great Unclean Ones, powerful and lord of his own personal host. However where Nurgle is most often seen as the mere God of death and decay, it is also true that he is of life and joy. Despite his most horrid appearance, is pallid flesh, his bloated and pouring intestines, Hol'Staligrath was a lover of children, benevolent across all species. Where the whispers of other daemons and warp creatures would claw at the child's mind, the Sand Weaver's followers would stand sentinel, waging war against their own kind for the sake of little ones though for many of the Neverborn, mortals were see as nothing more than prey. For a time, Hol'Staligrath's mission rang true, a monster that fed up the nightmares of children so that only blessed dreams would come. He would take their nightmares into his own form, a horrid and corrupted beast but it mattered not to him.. However with the ever rising population of those within the mortal realm and the creation of space travel, war became rife and species battled one another as well as themselves. Nightmares were aplenty, but when a child has been scarred by war, their minds broken beyond mending, there is nothing the Great Lord could do to bring them joy. With his only source of power taken, the Great Unclean One weakened with time, leaving him vulnerable to those that would happily taken revenge on the one that had denied them their prey. The Great Unclean One was felled by La Vessharath, the Death of Innocence. The twisted Slaanesh host slaughtered Hol'Staligrath's troupe, defiled his stronghold and left the once great lord in ruin. Broken, mutilated and blind, The Sand Weaver was left to fade back into the energies of the warp with little energies to regenerate to his former glory. But, in a final act of desperation, the once great lord gave himself to the Daemon Artisans deep within the warp and became the twisted arachnid Plague Hulk he is. Now the blinded monstrosity marches with the Nurgle Warband known as the Cleaved and other hosts of Chaos, offering his destructive power and services on the mere condition that the children be spared... lest he turn up his own allies to protect the little ones he loved so dearly.

Wow on the plague hulk! :tu: Also: nice fluff there buddy. Your points are in, as long as you finish the last vow you'll be golden. :D

Still have to do touch ups, edge highlights, and assorted detailing.

Oh man this is such a nice conversion and you're totally doing it justice with that paint job! Do please finish him, and I'll throw heaps of internets your way. ;)

Sadly with current events, real life, and changes in my life, I will not be able to finish my vow. Its pains me, but I have more pressing matters then painting miniatures atm. I will atone this failure next ETL.

Sad to hear mate, but RL does take precedence. It's been an awesome ride having you on board nonetheless. :tu:

Should be done with him sometime tomorrow

[Augustus b'Raass]

Nice work Be Extra Nice!!

[Forté]

Excellent completions coming through. Keep it going as the end is in sight.

[Urauloth]

I feel bad for dropping out but I'm going to hospital so the neurology wing can stick needles in my head. I'll be back to the hobby and the forum when my health picks back up but this is it for my ETL participation unfortunately. Good luck to everyone else!

[Captain Semper]

B E N is another Aspiring Champion gambling his 3.4kpts for a mere 110 more... Oh well, that's Chaos for you. :rolleyes:

 

@ Kvit Ghost: Sound too... 40k-ish! Hope you get well soon mate - sorry to hear about your health issues... I'm sure you'll be back to normal in no time! :) 

 

UPDATED TO THIS POINT!

[Chaeron]

Feel for you mate - my thoughts again at this time. Hope it all goes well!

 

I've nearly finished those three DPs, nailed Ahriman... Knight about to start building!

[B E N]

Nice work Be Extra Nice!!

I assume you dropped the "n" there, if so, thanks!

What can I say, I live on the edge.

[Slave to Darkness]

[Akylas]

@Teetengee I'm embarrassed I didn't catch that reference right away Janus Slynt is a fine name indeed.

Vow 3 is done! That is it for me for this ETL. Good luck everyone! almost done. I just noticed one little detail I missed, will post one more pic tonight.

[Faelchu]

Vow 2 complete! Thank you for the good fun, I am looking forward to ETL IV already...

[Kilofix]

I'm guessing its all about completion % now - ours vs. others.

 

I'm not sure where we stand on that (haven't done the math against Page 1).

[Augustus b'Raass]

We're about 66k finished, but much is in the balance still and there at least as much outstanding, plus several frater already having accepted their no-finish. Every point still counts, especially outstanding follow up vows. Steve is doing good, as is chaeron, but theyre not the only ones with large follow up vows outstanding.

 

Paint my brethren!!! Paint like never before!!!

[Uprising]

Good News: My mom is out of the hospital today, but the bad news is finishing my vow is unlikely.  O well family is the most important aspect of life.
