+++ Casual 30K Hobby Challenge - May: Supporting the ETL +++

Recommended Posts

Here is the completed casual pledge. The Sicaran and Orth were previously posted in the ETL thread though, but hardly hurts posting them here in addition to the Kitbash-troops!

Now, time to do some math for the next ETL vow!

I, Cocha, from the lands of Ancient Romans, sadly won't be able to pledge anything this month, as life is so much demanding these weeks.

I wish you a productive month, build and paint for me Brothers of the Tenth!

If there will be some spare time, I'll make a pledge to restore my honour!

 

Sorry you can't do much this month Cocha - have you checked out the ETL though? You need to pledge before the end of May and complete by August. We'd love you have your painting power on board!

 

Nevindar - Brilliant pledge sir. The Sicaran looks great and it finally spurred me on to put some paint on mine... it only has the green base on it so far so I won't waste people's eyes with a picture, but I think it will be a long way down the road after the weekend!

 

Competition-wise the loyalists have just brolken the 250 point barrier for the month, and have a completion rate over 50%. Traitors have some work to do! Hopefully I'll get a more complete update ready for you soon - but actually painting something might take prioirty!

Just wanted to share a WIP of the Spartan, any thing I should add before weathering and washing???

@ROBOcaster How about some chipping on the paint? Could help with breaking up some of the solidity in the paintjob. On the other hand.. might just be me considering that to be a separate step from washing and weathering :) Bet it'll look ace when it's completed anyhow!

@Kor'Vesh Get painting your Sicaran! Really an ace kit to paint after all... So good I bought a Venator ;)

@Raktra We all need a tank commander on fot with a puppy-companion right?

@Nevindar...never hurts to see more pics of great painted minis :-) and they are awesome! Well done mate.

 

@Robocaster...looks great so far...solid painting before the weathering... (thats how i go about it aswell) get cracking on the washes and weathering and lets see that beast in all its glory!

 

@Kor'Vesh... Great write up as usual mate..and was your 400th post! Congrats...now why haven't you got paintbrushes in hand lol

Nevindar - Awesome stuff bro! The Sicaran looks great and I really like your take on Orth. Can't wait to see where you take the Mechanicum!

Raktra - Erebus is looking great! I like the conversion work you've done, and the paintjob is spot on so far. Keep it up!

ROBO - Spartan is looking very precise and clean with great colours and lines. I'd say it's ready. Get that sucker dirtied up!

Poom & Chaplain Mortis - As two of my favourite painters on the B&C, I'm really looking forward to what you two are going to come up with for your vows.

Kor'Vesh - A Traitor has done some work...

Vow complete!

                                                                                2 "Pallas" Pattern Rhinos (with fluff-blurb)
                                                                                5 Heavy Support Marines with Volkite Culverins

                                                                               1 Centurion with Thunder Hammer and Boarding Shield

There is no 'kind of' Nevindar! You did what you had to do... and you did it in style!

 

Stru - stunning. That is all.

 

I was about to write an updat for week two, but I feel guilty about my painting progress... so I'm neatening up my sicaran's base colours instead!

@Kor'vesh that is true, I should be more direct with my phrasing ;)
Now sort your Sicaran! Let's go progression-copter woo!

Eh....... Right. Back to building a "new pattern" rhino .....or eat some pulled pork and procrastinate some more..

Leoric, the Son of the Gorgon is returning!!!

 

I saw all your great vows, and my Iron Heart was stirred up again! It will be an honour, to take up the banner, lost in the deserts of Istvaan again. My new order arrived yesterday (15 new Tacticals, 5 Immortals, an Iron Father and a Sicaran), and I will join the fight against the Grey Hordes of Resin Madness :)

I still need to sort the reinforcements, and prepare them for assembly, but the plan is, that I'll be back in June, with some brand new vows.

Hmm... Grey Hordes of Resin Madness, would that be a subsect of the Word Bearers after the heresy, ones who refused to repaint their armour? Good to see a Son of the Gorgon return Leoric!

An in progress shot of my Thanatar-this was taken earlier today when I had decent enough light to take a picture. The top half of the model is basically finished, with the ammo feed needing a wash. Would have posted a picture of that, but I can't seem to take one I'm happy with.

Speaking of progress...

 

Predator Progress

 

Still not quite there on the primary armor, much less lining and detailing, but at least they have more than just an undercoat now!

 

Also, had a friend pick up and ship to me from Salute a little something special I'll have to add to my second vow:

 

Autilon Skorr acquired

 

Also got the Alpha Legion shirt, but that's far less relevant to this discussion. ;)
