Sir Ovbov Posted June 14, 2016 Share Posted June 14, 2016 Hello, this is my first attempt at an ETL so I hope this is done right( don't hold me to that). I, Sir Ovbov, first of his name (and most likely last) rise to the challenge of E TENEBRAE LUX and vow to complete one Chaplain with a Stormbolter from Codex: Blood Angels of total value 95 points on or before August 15th, 2016. Success will bring eternal glory to ETL Faction Blood Angels and failure will doom me to bear the Badge of the Oathbreaker until my vow is complete. http://imagizer.imageshack.us/v2/640x480q90/923/TxiPgK.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/323203-sir-ovbovs-etl-attempt/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

WarriorFish Posted June 14, 2016 Share Posted June 14, 2016 I love that classic Chaplain, he'll always epitomise the BA for me - second one for this ETL too! I look forward to seeing him finished which could be soon if you keep this progress up Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/323203-sir-ovbovs-etl-attempt/#findComment-4419656 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arkaniss Posted June 15, 2016 Share Posted June 15, 2016 Awesome model Ovbov, and fast progress too! :D I finished mine last night. Please be careful when straightening the Crozius though, as mine snapped and I had to pin it Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/323203-sir-ovbovs-etl-attempt/#findComment-4419958 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Please be careful when straightening the Crozius though, as mine snapped and I had to pin it Damn, tbh I wasn't really thinking of doing it but now I've started painting I don't think I will, maybe on the next one though as I have a second 1 to do once I have done this one.

Arkaniss Posted June 15, 2016 Share Posted June 15, 2016 I had bent it a few times when stripping it down and scrubbing it and sadly it happened one time too often and snapped. It was a clean break though and easy enough to pin and glue so it looks fine :) As long as you are careful it should be ok but of course it's up to you.

Jolemai Posted June 15, 2016 Share Posted June 15, 2016 Never had a problem with that Crozius but Dante's axe... What was the conventional way of straightening lead again? Just gently bend it?

Arkaniss Posted June 15, 2016 Share Posted June 15, 2016 Perhaps the metal had softened after it's ultrasonic bath in the dettol which made it an issue for me? I don't know of any special method but I'd be very interested if anyone knows one! I just very carefully straighten things in stages.

WarriorFish Posted June 15, 2016 Share Posted June 15, 2016 Gently bend lead a little at a time to work it into the shape you want, focusing on where the bend is. Ideally with some form of brace e.g. against something straight if you want to straighten a part out.

Arkaniss Posted June 16, 2016 Share Posted June 16, 2016 Nice! Is that a Legion of the Damned backpack? It looks awesome and fits really well :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/323203-sir-ovbovs-etl-attempt/#findComment-4421116 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sir Ovbov Posted June 16, 2016 Author Share Posted June 16, 2016 I don't think so, it came with another oop lead chaplain that I got with the other chaplain but put it on him as I want to put a jump pack on the next one.

Arkaniss Posted June 16, 2016 Share Posted June 16, 2016 Hmm! So it must be an OOP backpack then. Ah well, worked out well for you with the jump pack too so that's good :D When can we see a picture of your next vow?

Sir Ovbov Posted June 16, 2016 Author Share Posted June 16, 2016 Right, here is my second vow, so let's see how this goes. I, Sir Ovbov, first of his name (and most likely last) rise to the challenge of E TENEBRAE LUX and vow to complete one Chaplain with a JumpPack and a Plasma Pistol from Codex: Blood Angels of total value 120 points on or before August 15th, 2016. Success will bring eternal glory to ETL Faction Blood Angels and failure will doom me to bear the Badge of the Oathbreaker until my vow is complete. http://imagizer.imageshack.us/v2/640x480q90/924/ECP3AY.jpg (I know its a bad photo :D) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/323203-sir-ovbovs-etl-attempt/#findComment-4421543 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sir Ovbov Posted June 16, 2016 Author Share Posted June 16, 2016 Guy's, should I use more green or purple for my second chaplain? Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/323203-sir-ovbovs-etl-attempt/#findComment-4421570 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arkaniss Posted June 17, 2016 Share Posted June 17, 2016 Up to you of course but if I'm honest I really like the scheme you have for your first vow. BA Chaplains are all about the black, red and bone colours if you ask me!

Sir Ovbov Posted June 17, 2016 Author Share Posted June 17, 2016 Update for the second chaplain. http://imagizer.imageshack.us/v2/640x480q90/923/1oMyU9.jpg http://imagizer.imageshack.us/v2/640x480q90/922/8ETkC0.jpg http://imagizer.imageshack.us/v2/640x480q90/922/Zr04Nf.jpg http://imagizer.imageshack.us/v2/640x480q90/924/T3J6tQ.jpg As you can somewhat see I have done the shoulder pad and jump pack (With my first attempt at OSL for the jump pack) but I am yet to do much no the plasma pistol or the chaplain itself.

Sir Ovbov Posted June 17, 2016 Author Share Posted June 17, 2016 Another update, the Plasma pistol is now done. http://imagizer.imageshack.us/v2/640x480q90/923/zoRabr.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/323203-sir-ovbovs-etl-attempt/#findComment-4422601 Share on other sites More sharing options...
