++ Casual 30K Hobby Challenge - March ++


Kor'Vesh

Recommended Posts

---- March ----

 

Welcome to March's Casual 30K hobby challenge. We all know how this works by now, pledge some models to paint this month, build your armies, and enjoy the opportunity to stick it to the traitors/emperor. But, due to the dominance of the Xth legion in February, we'll also be having a bit of a Iron Hands inter-clan battle this month

 

To join in, you make a hobby pledge for the month, and this contibutes to either the Loyalist or Traitor cause. We'll compete in a few ways:

 

1. Pledges - Loyalists and Traitors compete on completed pledges over the month. The more completed pledges the more points you win. You can make a second pledge only once the first is complete, and in doing so you risk your first pledge. That's right - pledges are all or nothing - complete your vows or live in shame.

 

2. Scores - Every model you pledge to paint is worth points. Once you finish the model and show us you earn points for your faction. These are always safe, so there is always an incentive to keep painting! The scroes are as follows -

 

Scores

Infantry - 1 point;

Large Infantry (termies, bikes, rapiers without crew etc.) - 2 points;

Monstrous infantry - 3 points;

Vehicles - 6 points;

Lord of War (including Primarchs)- 10 points.

Titans - 15 for Warhounds, 20 for Reavers

 

At the end of the month I'll tally up the points and pledges to see who wins. We'll also compare Percentage completions for each team, just to keep things interesting!

 

If you want to fight in the Iron Hands battle, or declare your own personal vendeta against another Frater, just let us know!

 

So brothers and sisters, for the Emperor or for Horus, and for the favour of Ferrus Mannus let see some pledges!

I Kor'Vesh, being of weak will and little time, but a large un-built pile of resin, pledge to BUILD 20 tactical marines, one predator executioner and a Legion attack bike, and to PAINT a rhino, in the month of March. If I should fail, shame me with great shame!

I Wyv, oathbreaker extraordinaire do tentatively pledge to hopefully, possibly... Probably not build and paint a landraider, 5 members of first claw and finish the praetor i built last month. If i shall fail i shall wear the sinners ref and offer my skin to the haunter!

I Alpharius (Or Omegon) pledge that I will paint a preator of the second legion, a legion build by the amazing Athrawes!

If I fail, great shame will rest upon me, so I will fight to my outerst strength to paint this one model!

 

Greetings to everyone,

-AlphariusOmegon

 

EDIT: Because I am feeling up to a chalenge, I also pledge to paint a vindicator in 2nd legion colours!!!

Thanks again for keeping this running Kor'Vesh

 

I Chaplain Mortis pledge for the might of the IVth legion..

2 contemptors and a legion previan..

 

About an evening away from finishing the first (started last month so deduct points if need be)

Hope to add 2 Deredeos later..

 

Good luck everyone and interested to see how the Xth legion out do each other :-)

Yes Kor, thanks for keeping this rolling!

I, lionofjudah pledge to do the 5 guys I said I might add for Feb. And I have 5 more to build so put me down for 10 doods for the VIIth.

In the interest of keeping the peace with my wife I will be selling a bunch of my 40k stuffs to feed my 30k hobby***cough*** rèśïñ čråćk āddìćtíôñ!!!! As this occurs I will be able to add the lovely Polux, some Gorgons, a venerator, some jetbikes, some.... Ahhhhhhh.... So much rèśïñ

 

I am excited that its warming a lil... Let's me know it will be airbrush weather in a month or 2 and my fire raptor can see some love;)

I OwlandMoonGuy, being pressured by up-coming events and desirous to maintain a winning streak for Loyalists everywhere while also in extra special competition vs. my IH clansmen, pledge the following:

 

the Primarch, Ferrus Manus, one Thallax with Multi-melta (why only one?) and one Devastation Drone conversion,

 

in the month of March reserving the right to pledge more since I do have a Spartan and 10x Gorgon terminators ready to go and a Thanatar on it's way in the mail as I type this.  Failing that, may I be thrown into a bed of leftover resin bits clipped off FW models until my skin become pockmarked, irritated and scratchy, thereby forced to display my reddened welts like a badge of shame for all to see.

February was a good month, baby was born healthy but I have no time to play now, but that does give me more time to paint so here we troopers. Time to tighten up your boot straps, and get your rucks on because this March in the "March of Iron" drink water and drive on, time to get this legion looking as well as it plays.

Flesh is weak!!!

Hummmm... impressive opening salvo. Beware ye the ides of March...ermm.gif

Would love to keep participating but guys I'm exhausted, still working away and the next job is up on the northern territory border and it's a pain to carry my hobby gear with me.

 

I'll follow you guys and offer support and criticism this month and probably next month too.

 

Good luck I'm rooting for the loyalists

So March may well be a disappointing month for me... My wife informs me that we've got some friends from home staying in our spare room at some point this month along with their 1-2 year old, so all of my dangerous sharp things and paints have to be put away.

 

Fortunately it won't be this week, so I can at least get some stuff built, but at this point I don't know how much I can actually commit.

 

So all that said... I, StruManChu, being simultaneously very glad about and slightly irritated by friends that will fly from Australia to the UK just to see you and spend time with you, do solemnly swear to build a Fire Raptor for the Emperor's own Iron Hands, because I'm sure I can get that done over the course of this week.

 

I've ordered some other bits and pieces, so depending on how things go this month may see me go back to my Imperial Fists. Who knows?!
