I'm a little concerned he looks too busy in terms of colour scheme, but my wife reckons he looks ok.

 

I think when the colours are properly shaded and highlighted, he'll probably look alright.

Busy? Nah, you are fine.

If you want busy colours come join us in the Eye.

Thank you, brother!

 

I got the basecoats tidied up a little and got everything shaded. You're right, he looks fine now. :)

 

And yes, hah! I've been quietly *ahem* collecting up models to build up an... shall we say, "alternative" army.... You may see me elsewhere on this board at some point!

 

:D

 

I forgot about today's deadline!  OMG!!!

 

If I was still allowed to post w/o pre-condition photos - it would be that I'd build and paint:

 

(the total points below are estimated)...

 

Ming rise to the challenge of E TENEBRAE LUX and vow to complete:

  1. a BA 5-man Vanguard Squad (4 Lclaws, 1 THammer, jump packs);
  2. a BA 10-man Assault squad (jump packs, melta, melta, combimelta [or grav pistiol], paxe); and
  3. Lemartes; and
  4. A Sanguinary Priest (Paxe, auspex, jump pack)

for a total value of 650 pts on or before August 1st, 2015. Success will bring eternal glory to the Blood Angels Chapter and failure will doom me to bear the Badge of the Oathbreaker until my vow is fully completed. That shall be my penance.

I have completed my vow...but I did more than vowed.  Full album here:

He'll be done today.  Hemming and hawing over what color to paint the chainblades on the crozius, since the head is dark bronze.  The glossy spots on his shins are where decals are going.

Working on my vow. Tacs are near to finish, Scouts need primer and colours(lol) and the Razor is close to completion as well.

 

Deadline being at 01.08. at 17:00 UTC, I have a buckload of time to finish all my stuff. See ya tomorrow! *rolls up sleeves and storms off*

By my count, there are still 47 vows incomplete... I know that may of you will pull through in the last minute, but many people still have first-vows sitting around! Come on guys, the forum needs you! 

I know my first and only is among those...I don't want to fall to the rage but...BY THE EMPEROR! iT IS THE ARCH ENNEMY! CHARGE MY SONS! DEATH TO HORUS!!!

Although our brothers in the Death Company should be honored, none should yearn to join their ranks... Keep strong! You can resist the Black Rage! 24 hours to do 12 models? That's easier than sweeping Fire Warriors in Close Combat! 

The Captain is completed!

Now I need to get a group shot of the models.

 

I won't consider my pledge finished until I've got a good photo!

I Makkeru rise to the challenge of E TENEBRAE LUX and vow to complete two Baal Predators with twin linked assault cannons, heavy bolter sponsons and storm bolter and one Flame storm Baal Predator with heavy flamer sponsons and storm bolter from Codex Blood Angels of total value of 420 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.

 

Finished my vow:

Brothers! A little known chapter of Blood Angel descent* has sent a squad of their finest first company veterans to aid in the battle against the heretics.

First a before picture of brother Caius, replacing an ill fated brother of the squad who was lost in an accident involving my wife and a glass of lemonade that ended up dousing the squad. One Vanguard Vet with close combat weapon, grav pistol and melta bomb to replace he who was lost.

Next, final pics of all figures in the squad painted.

So I came back to my Mephiston count-as today... Very pleased with how he came out! He looks like the Reaper I wanted him too: A sable cloaked and clad terror with a bone visage and warpflame charged forcesword. He's a little messy when this close up but I like the sketchy style of painting personally.

 

Still needs a base & Power pack though, but the Iron Earth is drying and I'm hopefully going to grab a chaos one and add some cool skull/ chain bit to It with perhaps possibly a grail on top to finish him off tomorrow!

 

Tempted to replace his forward hand with a plastic captain Plasma pistol though, as it looks pretty boss with the text and sight on it, plus will give me a little more colour on the model with blue/ green plasma? Thoughts? Perhaps something for after the ETL.
