The Psycho: Great looking Khorne lord!

 

Kurama: Great looking squad, looking forward to the super heavy

 

helterskelter: That looks amazing, nice way to get the volkite with the lightning claws. Saving that idea for future characters of my own!

 

Did a bit of work on the Glaive this afternoon, hopefully get more time to work on it tonight

Hello Fraters, Back from holidays...(family time was fun but busy so no things put together) time to start turning the Ad-Mech gears!!!

* Special Wpns- 3x Plasma Caliver.

*Omnispex

Total - 240pts.

@ Rashbold - keep with it bro, "A cog turning slowly is still turning"... also the dunestriders are a " censored.gif Pain" to put together..welcome to that world.

@ everyone - lots of great stuff by everybody, gives me plenty of motivation to get stuff done thumbsup.gif

cheers Mithril

++ Edit++ changed the squad choice as i need some parts to complete the Ranger squad,so i will paint up the Vanguard squad first - same points cost as vowed

There are some absolutely LURID colors on this page, great work/progress y'all!

 

@Helter S. Kelter That is a brutal Stormblade, and that marine looks like he's on a mission

 

@P. Invictus I like those Terminators, very cleanly done, and I though I get you on the feelings towards flesh, yours looks good!

 

@K. uRama Much thanks sir, your scars are continuing to impress, I await your fellblade as well!

 

@Rashbold As a great game once said Finish the Fight! And as the Japanese say Fight-o(n) Fight-o(n) Fight-o(n), I continue to be excited for the army you are putting together sir!

 

@At I. A. I really can't get over how heavy those defense towers look, and I really like the subtle variations in the metal tone, kudos to you Ma'am.

 

@Zujara Again I profess my love for those wings, they just catch my attention every time I'm scrolling through, and that is also a might fine looking base!

 

This will be a somewhat light month for me, I'll be painting a Librarian in Terminator armor (115pts), and possibly some Devastators (TBDpts) since October is one of those months that can get away from me quite easily. There may be more, but until I'm sure and all...

 

Whats on the build block for next month though could be anything from another pair of Dreadnoughts to a Land Raider or a Storm Raven. What isn't on the block is a Storm Eagle, because the esteemed Honda had taken pity on me and built it himself (go check his thread in the BT subforum for build details and see his current project, a custom Grimaldus!). That's gonna be the project that launches the new November Warriors thread in the next few days once I get some pictures taken, I'm thinking it's gonna be the bow that wraps up this gift called the Tale of 18 for me ;)

Right ... I want to pledge lots of stuff but without the parts in my hands I'm not risking it. So I'll start off small and blitz that then if I have the parts I'll add to it later in the month.

So I pledge Illa Felix ... Inquisitor mastery level 1 with Power Armour, Thunder Hammer, liber heresius ... 98 points

 

>>>>>

 

Reinforcements are to follow.

 

;)

Quick question, For a chaplain (wolf priest), in HH1 it is 50 for Centurion then 35 to make a Chaplain.

 

Can you add more wargear such as terminator armour or are you restricted to just the crozius and the special rule?

 

Can you have more than one Praetor?

 

This will decide how my vow goes?

 

Lastly my units are going to be tied story-wise to each other but this includes units already done or mostly completed and not eligible for this little adventure. Is it okay if I post pics/fluff to tie them all in?

Okay doke then,

I dantay_xv, have risen from the red snow to pledge to The Allfather and Russ an army of 2000 points or more..

For my first pledge it will be a 10 man assault unit. 1 power weapon, 9 marines with melta bombs.. Sergeant with artificer armour, power weapon and melta bomb for 320 points.

Centurion with Chaplain upgrade, Terminator upgrade, 120 points, will upgrade to thunder hammer, but not sure if allowed, otherwise, the TH will just be a stylized crozius. smile.png

Glory to the 6th

That's what I like to see ^^^^

 

So guys cast your votes I need them for month 1.

 

Also I got lazy but I'll finish these for last month as I forgot to finish them.

Edit: 1st page is updated to this point but everyone check your totals and ensure I haven't missed anything.

So I got home and equipped the combat shields;

I won't be doing anything now as ive just found out I'm getting surgery on my wrists. So this will be my last thing for a couple of weeks

all good kurama, except,sorry to nit pick but my username has only one L in it blush.png and i'm a newb - what's the vote cast for(if i missed reading it somewhere i apologize)

Guys I'm loving all the 30k jump troopers, if I ever do a 30k army I'd love to get me some of them wub.png and the iron armor helms sure do rock!

cheers Mithril

Iron armour just rocks full stop!! So sad that FW do not do Mark 3 jump troops :( It was fun to make my own :)

 

Now I keep wondering what mark 2 torsos would look like on mark 3 legs as the mark 2 legs are darned skinny so I can't do that much with them.

hm voting ... that's pretty hard :/

 

Kurama made awesome progress on his Scars, Helter had the awesome super heavy with the cute lions (a great reference to the Athramenta), SW1 had that awesome conversion beamer guy ...

 

i guess i'll vote for Zujara too cause of two things:

 

- Rainbow-scheme on the LoC! awesome ^.^

- he showed that i probably should paint my 2nd edition Horrors - they aren't that bad as i thought xD 

My vote is for Helter, although it was close.  Not sure how much progress I am going to be able to make as the recovery from my surgery is taking longer and proving harder then I thought.  Oh and Reclusiarch Taron may have just got promoted to Master of Sanctity so I may be instead doing a different Chaplain on Bike instead of jump pack.
