Might as well get my first vow in while I still have time!

 

I, Macabre Slaaneshi Prince, rise to the challenge of E TENBRAE LUX on the side of the Adeptus Astartes and vow to complete 11 Rainbow Warrior Intercessors with the total value of 204 points on or before August 1st, 2018. Success will bring me eternal glory and failure will doom me to wear the Badge of the Oathbreaker until the year-end.

I haven't made any progress at all. My local store announced that they were closing, and I've kinda lost all the motivation I've had for hobby work. After 13 years of having a place to play, now its looking like Garagehammer is going to have to be the call of the day.

 

I'll try and plow through my vow before August, but sadly I've lost the umph.

Don't let this bring you down! Let this community and event motivate you to persevere! After all, your vow is quite sizeable, if I'm not mistaken, your pledged points exceed the average SM vow, which is isn't nothing.

 

If not for gaming or your brethren of this subforum, do this for the sake of having awesomely painted (I wanted to say cool, but your vow mostly consists of Primaris :P) models! As you've experienced it first-hand, this is the only 'guaranteed' part of the hobby. Rules change, groups fall apart, stores close, but your models stay with you!

 

For the Emperor! And the Adeptus Astartes! Onwards!

"Garagehammer", as you put it, is the way I play the majority of my games and I have to say, it's a lot of fun. Nice to mull over a game with a few beers and have a laugh, and allows actually a lot more flexibility in terms of time (we often play past midnight, which in a store wouldn't be feasible). 

 

I know that's not necessarily the best fit for everybody, but try to look at it as a new opportunity, and maybe see if the closing-down store wants to part with some of it's terrain collection for your own use!

If it can be of any consolation my progress has been minimal, too, and I'm sure we're not alone in this. I'd suggest concentrating on one unit at a time and setting a few realistic deadlines to get you motivated. Checklists, a reward system (if I paint x unit by y date, I can have that bar of my favourite chocolate all for myself, etc), progress trackers are all effective ways to motivate you to get stuff done. :tu:

Thanks, Captain. That’s been my stock power weapon colour for ever - everything from power axes to lightning claws goes that way.

 

I’m not sure about a second vow. This guy has taken me a month, and I’ve got nothing in the ‘to do’ pile less than squad sized. On the other hand, now I’ve done one, I’d take on a bigger first vow next time :)

Based and built by a friend 10 years ago, it's time to bring back Operation Reclamation once again and repair this honoured soul into something befitting the Emperor's Astartes.

Well, finally some progress, although its goes slowly:

I’ve been slowly blocking in all the basecoats and decided to go ahead on the bases as a little distraction. Bases are done except for a few touch-ups and weathering. The basecoats are almost done, just a few smaller areas, then touch-ups, washes, highlights etc.

EDIT: images went wrong somehow, fixed.

Two more participants on the side of Space Marines? Excellent!

 

Good luck Cambrius and Aegir! 

 

 

THIS IS THE CUT-OFF FOR THE WEEKLY UPDATE - EVERY VOW OR COMPLETION REPORTED BEYOND THIS POINT WILL COUNT FOR NEXT WEEK'S UPDATE.

 

UPDATED TO THIS POINT!

I, HighMarshalAmp, hereby vow to finish another 5 Man Tac Squad with a Multi-Melta, a Combi-Melta and a Power Sword for a total of 115 points by or before the end of the ETL. Failure would suck since it would nullify my previous vows and I'd get the shameful Badge of the Oathbreaker instead of something that rocks.

Unfortunately, there's still a few pieces of the Sergeant in the mail but I kinda need to get going on this...

So here's part 1 of the vow:

Part 2 will follow asap.

Edited to put the pic in the spoiler instead of just the link.
