Greetings, fellow sons of The Angel! Been plugging away on my Sanguinary Guard. After not being 100% sure what my scheme was going to be for these gents I'm pretty happy with the way are coming along. Here are a few pictures:

The amount of activity in the Tower of Baal is unprecedented! I'm really, REALLY, impressed by the BA participation this year!

 

@ CorbuloDIY: Welcome to the ETL, and what a vow! Jolemai was correct to point out the 3,000 pts limit, you can keep the rest for subsequent vows! Good luck! 

 

@ Charlo: By all means vow it! It will be an out of competition entry, but if the ETL will give you motivation to work on it, so much the better! :)

 

@ evildrcheese: Welcome - I look forward to this! :)

 

@ j-smuv: A completion AND a re-vow! Wow, this is really cool... You know what is even cooler? LAMENTERS! Fantastic work mate, keep 'em coming!

 

Grazcruzk: Looking great - excellent gold! Very promising stuff there, I can't wait to see them finished! 

 

@ Just4uCupCake

  1. I realised that your second vow is just 26pts short of 3,000. If you get to complete 3,000 in a single vow you get the badge of the Hero. I'will give you the opportunity to raise the vow to 3,000 (because it's ridiculous not to). So just work out another 25-26 pts and edit your vow accordingly. Let me know when you do that so I can amend the first page.
  2. As regards the forum Champion, it's the participant of each Faction with the most completed points. In case of a tie, you get to have two (or more) Faction Champions... Not that it has happened before, but the theoretic possibility was always there and still is... ;)

 

UPDATED TO THIS POINT!

(The following is a ramble from excitement. This is only a ramble.)

 

BROTHERS! We are on a massive swing, and haves great many points! To all of those that vowed, let us push on to completion! To any that have not pledged, we beg for your aid. Even if all you can paint is a single captain, a single squad, a single tank, pledge it. Any aid, no matter how small is a boon. ONWARD BROTHERS! TO VICTORY!

Grazcruzk - that tarnished gold, almost bronze, is lovely.

Auberon - very nice work. The MK. II assault kit looks, to my eyes, to have some serious posing limitations, but you've certainly gotten some fairly realistic ones out of it. Very nice touch adding the Sanguinary Guard halo to the sergeant.

I Leviathus rise to the challenge of E TENEBRAE LUX and vow to complete a 5 man assault squad and a sanguinary priest from Codex: Blood Angels of total value 185 points on or before August 1st, 2015. Success will bring eternal glory to the Blood Angels and failure will doom me to bear the Badge of the Oathbreaker until the year-end.

Captain, I added the before pictures to my OP. Sadly theyre taken with a crappy iPhone 4, but they'll do for now. More importantly, I am now back at home with my paints and so I am painting as I type! I must say, freehanding the Flesh Tearers symbol is getting really frustrating, but I shall persevere on!

 

For Sanguinis and the Emperor!

UPDATED TO THIS POINT!

I edited my second vow on page 6!

@ Leviathus: Welcome to ETL IV! Looking good so far, now let's them done!

 

@ Auberon: Magnificent work there... And the fact that you claim there's a lot to do still? scary!

 

@ Just4uCupCake: Done! ;)

 

 

UPDATED TO THIS POINT!

Hey guys just a quick update to show progress, I've totally hit the wall here, I'm now only waiting on shoulder pads to arrive, then I can complete my vow and make another.

 

I'm painting my bikes as we speak.

 

I have also completed my lord, unfortunately I was not able to make a vow for him as I had already begun painting him.

 

Just wanted to show him off to keep the motivation flowing. First though my ETL progress.

And here is my lord. I've painted him as much as I am able. At this point I'd better stop before I hurt him. :)

Hi everyone,

I would like to first say that i do still continue to on doing my first vow and that i have actually done my test model so it's now about waiting for the detol to do it's job before i can begin fully on my vow and then complete it. However, due to my ignorance i will need to restructure the vow's points, since i constructed it using my old BA codex (can't remember the exact release date, but it was accurate as of the release of 6th). So, if anyone could be kind and send me the options for all the units i chose (the list is on page 10) then that would be very, very much appreciated until i can buy the new book. Thanks alot,

Musket

1st vow has been completed

to go with my earlier pic

onward and upward (second vow)

I Xmercx answer the call of E TENEBRAE LUX and vow to complete [1 5-man Vanguard Veteran Squad w/ jumppacks, storm shields, 2 thunder hammers and 3 powerswords.) ] for the Nova Angels [successor Chapter of the Blood Angels ] of total value [265 pts] on or before August 1st. Success will bring eternal glory to [All the Sons of Sanguinius] and failure will doom me to bear the Badge of Shame until the year-end

As always pics can be found in my WIP thread (see above link for pre pics)

@ jikof: Welcome to ETL IV! Great vow there too, raising the BA average vow! Good luck!

 

@ xmercx: Now this is an impressive piece of scenery right there! :tu: Congratulations for your completion xmercx - and for your follow-up vow!

 

The BA team is going strong this year, you have a great momentum going - keep it that way!

 

UPDATED TO THIS POINT!

One week to go!

 

Until the doors to ETL IV are closed forever to new participants.

 

If you haven't yet vowed, do so this week. No matter how small (provided it's legal), no matter how little time you can commit (even if you only start it in the last week of July), every participant will help push us on to further glory.

 

On the third week update, out participants were rivaling the "so-called" ETL super-power of Codex and we were reigning in the combined might of Imperial Forces. You don't see us having to resort to allies, so you? We have done this through your enthusiasm and devotion to the best Marine Faction in the 40k world and for that, I tip my helmet to you. There is still time for us to reach 70+ sign ups and this will give us the best possible platform to dominate our opponents.

 

for Sanguinius, and the Emperor!
