Zujara Posted October 10, 2017 Share Posted October 10, 2017 Finished my vow! Was hoping to have time to tackle another knight this month, but better to save it for when I can give it the time it deserves. Not sure what to do for next month, but with the Ryza dogma being focused on combat maybe another melee unit.

Warsmith Uveron Posted October 13, 2017 Author Share Posted October 13, 2017 Hey all. So I have been offline for almost the whole month. A RAM chip fired in my home PC. Kinda got it fixed now and back online. Will try and catch up on this thread shortly. And make some updates to the event... Sorry for the absence.

FirstSonofHorus Posted October 14, 2017 Share Posted October 14, 2017 Here's my completed vow (bad picture I apologise): I hated painting the white on the helmet for the Ancient (just as I hated painting the Apothecary) so had to cut my losses and leave it as is. My vow for next month is very simple, two limited edition products.

Trokair Posted October 14, 2017 Share Posted October 14, 2017 Lots of good completions already, and i am sure more will come. Iron Bars, Love the converted Iron Circle, what is it supposed to count as? Binary, impressive as always, and spinning assault cannons, can’t wait to see that finished. I have finished my vow, was worried that I would run out of time for a while. Here we are, one Ogryn Kataphron squad. Two are armed with Heavy Arc Rifles and Arc Claws and one with a Torsion Cannon and Hydraulic Claw.

Studio Silvernale Posted October 15, 2017 Share Posted October 15, 2017 I still need to paint the guns, which are all magnetized so I can use them as a tactical squad or support squad with 4 types of weapons. I need to dig up 5x each plasma, melta, and flamer to maximize the squad...

Kennyjapan Posted October 16, 2017 Share Posted October 16, 2017 (edited) Been a mad month but got the bare minimum that I wanted to achieve this month done so that's something =) Fist off the Colour test Combat Squad, seeing if I could get behind a full silver/metallic look rather than the common gunmetal blue was main priority so didn't bother with the minor colours (holsters, eye lenses, etc.) beyond the base layer. Not sure whether I want to keep the look of the combat squad or curve towards the more traditional, so whilst I ponder on I've left the base's unfinished (less to repaint if I change my mind =D). Also have an airbrush on the way so will see what sort of effects I can get with that before committing to a scheme. And for the Land Raider, everything is built with multiple top hatch selections (tempted to find some sponson bits online so that I can interchange it to a Crusader if I feel like it) Once again, still pondering whether to keep the colour or go blue so for now have gone no further than the metallic basecoat and some brass basecoats Whilst not "complete" to the level of my KoB captain, that is my vow for this month complete Kenny Edited October 16, 2017 by Kennyjapan Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/334194-2017-a-tale-of-hobbyists/page/20/#findComment-4909669 Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaxom Posted October 16, 2017 Share Posted October 16, 2017 ++ Month 4 Vow Complete ++ A little hard to see because I went with darker colors - blackish cloth, dark blue armor, metallic black guns - and scouts are super scrunched up.

Marqol Posted October 16, 2017 Share Posted October 16, 2017 This month has just had no motivation for me, one of those months I think.

jaxom Posted October 17, 2017 Share Posted October 17, 2017 ++ Month 5 Vow ++ I vow to complete a 2"x2" basic display board ('cause I need it for Armies on Parade in two weeks). Nothing fancy, just a textured board with a few of the plastic terrain bits from the old starter kit with Genestealers and Space Marines.
