Don't forget your before pictures with your vow post!As the Commissariat likes to say, "Trust, but verify"! @Taffster, great to see such a lofty goal early on!

Also don't forget to imbeed a picture of all that grey plastic you will be assembling for the Emperor!  Updated my post to include my list, unable to embed due to an error "You are not allowed to post that extension on this community", will try again later - Edit: Adding .jpg to the url sorted the issue, now you can see all the glorious grey plastic that's to be assembled!  But yeah, got the Battleforce for Christmas and am really looking forward to building some models, it's been too long since I've opened a new box, I think 2 months is easily doable, especially once I get my airbrush setup.. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/343293-trooping-the-colour-an-ig-hobby-event/#findComment-4981606 Share on other sites More sharing options...

WarriorFish Posted January 13, 2018 Share Posted January 13, 2018 Pictures aren't essential for your starting pledge if you're keen to make your mark - just be sure to post your WIP to this topic when you have it and update your original vow post with the picture when you do and all is well  If you have difficulties posting PM a member of the commissariat for help; if you're getting an image extension message you probably need to change the link to the image directly (i.e. with the extension e.g. .jpg).

Brother Argent Posted January 14, 2018 Share Posted January 14, 2018 " Brenner! Get that gun up! Winters! Trench detail at the double! Sergeant Bleaker, I want that ruin strong enough to withstand a direct artillery hit by nightfall or I swear to Him on Terra the Commiserate will hear of it!" Captain Danse spat orders at his men as they hurried to their duties. He turned to see his Communications Officer standing beside him, "Report, Soldier!" he demanded and the voxmen saluted smartly, " Request for reinforcements from the front line, Sir!" he said and Danse smiled grimly, " About damned time..." he said and turned back to his men. I, Brother Argent, vow in the name of He Most Holy of Terra and the Lord Commander to raise reinforcements from the 13th New Eden Rifles as well as other New Eden regiments assigned to the warzones alongside them. Firstly I shall complete Captain Arnhem Danse himself (Officer with Bolt Pistol). This I shall do, and more, before 31st March or may I be subject to the tender mercies of the Commissariat. This will tie in nicely with my Tale of Eight Armies....

Henimann Posted January 14, 2018 Share Posted January 14, 2018 UPDATE: Pics!    My griffon is stripped and ready to be repainted! Still probably my favorite artillery tank - I hope FW brings it back as an official unit in their books.   Ditto for my Sentinels...they're in pieces, but I should be able to put the two of them back together again.  Last, but not least, everything for my infantry and commanders. Might end up using one of my old metal officers as a CC, but I have parts enough to make both out of bitz if I choose to.
