Shard of Magnus Posted March 19, 2016 Share Posted March 19, 2016 Like Scribe, I have drifted away from 40k over the past year and won't be painting for chaos this time. I've got a goal to paint a 4K force for the XVIIth this year. Maybe there will be a fair amount of progress towards that during the ETL...with some motivation assistance and assuming I figure out how to paint with to a satisfactory level with an airbrush in time!

Oh that is a good point indeed ^_^ Would it be heretical and/or legal to paint daemons for the AoD subforum o.O?

GhostMalone Posted March 19, 2016 Author Share Posted March 19, 2016 Welcome newcomers I'm glad to see you all joining us, welcome to the ship and the crew. Now everyone I'm happy to see were starting to come out of the woodwork, now let's get down to business. Last year we did a huge recruitment drive that inspired others to follow suit, this year I think we should do it again (without being aggressive and disrespectful). Now I set you a challenge to bring one person to etl whether or not they fight for our flag is irrelevant I ask that we step up the competition again I want to see new members and us supporting them in their endeavour, we are not an exclusive boys club (we got flint and Atia Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/320553-etl-v-motivation-and-preparation-aod-unite/page/2/#findComment-4340781 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Balthamal Posted March 19, 2016 Share Posted March 19, 2016 Based on my recollections from last years event, we had a massive amount of points vowed within the first days but when push came to shove in the dying minutes, we (myself included, shamefully) didn't manage to push it through. I'm committed to nailing at least 5 vows this year though. Anything less than 4k points I'm going to view as complete and utter failure since this is my 4th ETL and I've only gotten over the finish line with one of them. That being said though, I'm expecting a massive swell of recruits for the Legions come the opening day of the Great Crusade (let's face it, this is exactly what it is :D ) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/320553-etl-v-motivation-and-preparation-aod-unite/page/2/#findComment-4340795 Share on other sites More sharing options...

GhostMalone Posted March 19, 2016 Author Share Posted March 19, 2016 Exactly guys! Now I personally am a speed painter when motivated so I'll most likely take a day or 2 off at the start of the event and complete a massive vow in the opening hours. Now I'm constrained currently as this project I'm working on means I need to paint my resin as -shudders- 40k fenris grey space wolves. This is due to their application in both settings and mixing with my brothers current paint scheme. So I luckily can prime these and do shadowing before base coats and being big vehicles I can get them done relatively easily Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/320553-etl-v-motivation-and-preparation-aod-unite/page/2/#findComment-4340801 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Olis Posted March 19, 2016 Share Posted March 19, 2016 I think, having asked Semper about it last year, models with a base coat are fine as a starting point so, I suppose, half the job can be done before you even start.
