I tried to make a good use of other parts to give my guys quite a unique look. Vow completed Brothers!!!!

Awesome work everyone! I've been painting pretty slow due to uni work bit I'm still hoping I can get this done biggrin.png

Here's the first Iron Warrior of my pledge.

Excuse my horrible photography.

@jimbo : love the purple as the secondary color; not too bright to be garish but just bright enough to not fall into the realms of red-brown.

 

@dantioch : great iron warriors as awlays!

 

@procrastinators (such as myself) : 2 more weeks...

 

Two more weeks to paint a bolter, a pair of pauldrons, and a stripe on a helmet. I guess that'll be done by the end of this week.

 

Thats what you say to yourself but, we procrastinators know better than that :p

Yep. I've only got two topknots to do but you can guarantee they'll probably be done the last day...

++ Hobby Challenge Announcement ++

 

Hail Fraters!

 

The end of March will mark 6 months of our Loyalist Vs Traitor hobby challenge. To mark this auspicious occasion I will be starting a new thread – The 30K Casual Hobby Challenge - Hall of Victors.

 

This thread will serve three purposes –

 

1. Firstly, I intend to use this thread as a repository for the rules of the 30K Hobby Challenge, and a record of the success of each month’s progress, likely by posting each month’s post-mortem there. This is the (slightly) duller part of the thread, but will ensure that our honour, or shame, live on in the forum.

 

2. Secondly, and more excitingly, this will serve as a place to display the work of our most prolific, talented and appreciated members. Each month the most prolific oathkeeper from each team will have the right to post pictures of their completed vow in this thread to inspire other members of the forum. If the same person keeps on winning, and they get bored of showing off, they may chose to nominate their favourite pledge from that month’s competition for the honour.

 

I would also like to collect votes from the members of the challenge for their favourite completed pledge of the month for both teams. All competitors who achieve the rank of Neophyte (i.e. actually make some small progress on their vow) will have the first two days of the month to nominate their favourite loyalist and traitor player. I’ll tot up the votes and the nominees will add their images to the Hall of Victors.

 

3. Finally – I’d like to use this thread as a place for people to show off their total army progress. So every six months, it would be great for people involved in the challenge to post one image of all the challenge models they’ve completed in the preceding six months, and one of their army as a whole.

 

So the idea of all of this is to provide a record of our antics, and to provide more inspiration and motivation for our fellow 30K hobbyists – and, since the mods have kindly agreed to pin to the top this forum, it will be there for all to see!

 

At this stage I’d be interested to hear any feedback on the idea, and hope you’ll all start getting some nice whole army shots sorted out to launch the thread at the start of April. I’ll probably start the thread before the end of the month, with the basic info and rules. I’ll hopefully find the time to name the victors of the previous 5 challenges as well. If they’d like to post an image of their victorious vows, all the better! Then, as we hit April, we’ll have a little vote in this thread for our favourite work (start thinking now), and hopefully see a nice accumulation of army photos.

 

Finally, the Casual Challenge WILL continue throughout the ETL! We will be acting as a parallel thread, and hopefully feed our vows into the ETL. In this way we can use our monthly targets to spur on completions, and hopefully ensure a really big score for the Heresy subforum!

 

Thanks for reading, and making the challenge such a success guys and gals. Look forward to hearing your thoughts!

so, we can vow f.e. a reaver titan for both ETL and casual challenge?

Yep. The casual challenge is helping the ETL, NOT detracting from it. So if you can do your reaver in a month, pledge it here. Hell, we all want to see it in as many threads as possible!

Told you I finished Sevatars base!!! Starting work on the Prince himself tomorrow most likely.
