++ Casual 30K Hobby Challenge - October ++


Kor'Vesh

Recommended Posts

---- October ----

 

Well I've run this thing for a whole year now (though claimimng I 'ran' September's challenge a bit much). If I get some time this month I might try to put together some stats on our year in the hobby - just for funsies.

 

We all know how this works by now, pledge some models to paint this month, build your armies, and enjoy the opportunity to stick it to the traitors/emperor. Full rules can now be found in the Hall of Victors thread - where anyone involved so far should feel happy to post their full army shots!

 

As a basic reminder, 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.

 

 

So brothers and sisters, for the Emperor or for Horus let's see some pledges!

 

In that spirit - I Kor'Vesh, hobbiest in a bit of a painting rut, do pledge to paint my last two Thallax in the month of October!

I, Ironwrought Huw, bar-keeper of the X legion, pledge 1 terminator character (Praetor-Iron Father-Forge Lord), 2 techmarines and a Land Raider. (In between my RL duties serving brightly coloured drinks to people) Hopefully I'll remember my time-keeping this month laugh.png

Glory to the Tenth!

well if its the anniversary month then congrats Kor vesh this thread is great I just started into the heresy in may and I think I only didn't pledge last month this thread is a great motivator and I think all the Fraters feel appreciative that you run this thing. this month I will make a pledge to paint 5 imperial fists cataphractii painted i'll post pics when I I get them built (magnetizing everything to be comparable takes longer then I thought)

More progress on my raiders... Pretty much down to painting the fists on the brass etch on proteus and the blue coil effects on lascannons

lionofjudah, that's a really nice looking shade of yellow you've got on the landraiders. 

 

I decided to magnetise my as yet unclassified HQ character. I think I may have gotten a little bit carried away...

 

 

 

 

Anyone for Volkite?

Ignore the plasma blaster, that will be a graviton gun when I've finished. 

 

 

Painting progress on the techmarine(s) - FW's MKIII head.

Waiting dried watered down pva glue to dry and prime and begin base coating.

I will need to assemble the 2 story building and turn the other 2 walls into viable terrain pieces.

I'm pretty excited As city fight was my favorite addon and this is my first diorama.. Will be adding in a couple of small subplots into the story.

Basically this is a scene from the siege where our heroic defenders are besieged on all sides and human and Astraes come together to fight and die as comrades.... Plus there's a knight that's as tall as the buildings... I mean, that's awesome right
