++ The Hall of Victors ++

 

Hail Fraters!

 

Welcome to The 30K Casual Hobby Challenge - Hall of Victors.

 

This thread is a place to celebrate the work and success of the participants in the 30K Casual Hobby challenge. Here we will post monthly summaries of the challenge, and invite the most productive and respected members of each monthly challenge to post pictures of their work. We’ll also have a look at everybody’s army progress every so often.

 

Firstly I’ll remind everyone of the rules of the challenge: 

 

The Rules

 

To join in you make a hobby pledge for the month, in the relevant month’s thread, and this contributes to either the Loyalist or Traitor cause. There are two competitions:

 

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 scores are as follows -

 

Infantry - 1 point;

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

Monstrous infantry - 3 points;

Vehicles and Fortifications - 6 points;

Lord of War (including Primarchs)- 10 points;

Warhound Titan – 15 points;

Reaver Titan – 20 points.

 

Building – Building pledges are worth one quarter points. If you upgrade a building pledge to a painting pledge that month, you can only earn the full painting points for the models.

 

Swapping pledges – I will accept pledge swaps, as long as they are worth at least the same points. If you have Forge World delivery issues, just let me know and pledges can also be tweaked.

 

Each month absolute scores are recorded, and the percentage of pledged scores completed.

 

At the end of the month I'll tally up the points and pledges to see who wins. Fraters are ranked in the following classes:

 

Oathkeeper – Completed all of their pledged models.

Battle Brother – Completed some of their pledge and contributed to the cause.

Neophyte – Managed some hobby work, but scored no points for their team.

The Missing – A shameful lack of progress!

 

Pictures

 

The oathkeeper with the highest number of points scored for each team will be declared the Emperor’s or Warmaster’s champion, and asked to post pictures of their vow here. Any persistent winners may nominate their favourite vow in their stead, if they are bored of showing off!

 

At the end of each month all involved members (Neophytes and up) will also vote for their favourite pledges on each team. The two most popular vows will be declared the Warrior’s champions, and post their work here.

 

Finally – I’d like to use this thread as a place for people to show off their total army progress. So whenever you have a decent army picture, it would be great for people involved in the challenge to post images of all the challenge models they’ve completed in the preceding months, or 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 in a place that all can see! Right now I’d like to see pictures of the armies and total pledge progress of everyone involved in the challenge so far. I’d also like to invite our previous victors to post some images of their victorious vows. Details of these, along with links to our old threads are below.

OK, so I'll start things off. Here are a couple of shots of my Salamanders legion force. Pretty much everything here has been built and painted in the last six months through the challenge. I hope to get the rest of it done by the end of the year, but we'll see. Its been a big help having the challenge for support and encouragement, as well as inspiration, so thank for all your help!

I've only been involved since January, but it's been an absolute joy to watch everyone over the months. 

 

Getting a sudden urge to shout "Transform and roll out" here...

There are some amazing armies on this page! It's really humbling to be here. Here's me little army so far, which has taken a few years to cobble together. No HQs or officers yet, but that's next in line:

Here's my November pledge. 23 breacher legionaries including a few Vexillari. They are the best and worst things I’ve ever painted: the worst because they took me the longest, but the best because they took me the longest.

Here's the Vexillari ("standard barer" in nerd). Of all my models, I spent the most time on these two. They're the best infantry models I’ve painted to date.

Emperors Champion in December- battle brother, oathkeeper and virgin on the table top with a 30k game.

Thoughts for the ETL are to formulate a playable force, paint my vows for the ETL by doing 1 per month and make them as badass as my skills allow. Ill be airbrushing my knight and raptor so wish me luck:) Also, Id love to get in a game at some point as I miss rolling the dice in something other than the settlers of cataan.
