Have to say, that's a nice sized vow for your first ever ETL pledge. I'm not sure I've seen your painting style yet - do you paint BA Chapter, BA Successor, or BA homebrew?

I have yet to prove my worth with a brush, which I'm eager to do :smile.: Those will be pure Blood Angels, mostly 5th company 'Daemonbanes'.

Not going to lie Ranulf, I'm looking forward to this. Folks, this will be one to watch in the painting stakes imo.

 

All the best :)

Excellent little vow to get the ball rolling - it's just a shame that the best Chaplain ever made looks tiny compared to today's range :(

I Ekfud, rise to the challenge of E TENEBRAE LUX on the side of the Blood Angels and vow to complete Lemartes, Chaplain with Jump pack and 16 Jump pack Death Company of total value 583 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.

 

*To check - one of the DC (top left) has already had power sword airbrushed... if that detail is too far, can remove from the submission.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Points check:

DC w/JPs x16 = 320; wargear = 44 [Total = 364]

Lemartes = 129

Chaplain = 90

Total vow = 583

 

It might be worth checking with Semper directly to find a solution as he has an awful lot to skim past over the next few months (seriously, he needs some Tech-thralls).

 

Other than that, DC are a great start point for us as they can be finished quick thus allowing us to apply pressure on the other fora early on.

 

All the best with it :)

I think it’s Funny that I feel the exact opposite way about painting death company. Those models have so much detail in them that I feel they take much longer than regular Marines despite being black. My last five death company took me probably three weeks to paint in full. (Average of probably 3+ hours per model)

About to find out - my very first 1994 game included death company in the form of cardboard circles but this will be the first time I get to paint them. :-)

 

There is definitely some extra bling but then I seem to have a very slow way of painting red so it could even out.

I agree. The amount of extra detail really high, especially when most of it seems to be red that you need to paint over black basecoat. It took me roughly 3weeks to paint 9 of them in January, so I’m not too keen to start another 20 of them. I absolutely love DC marines though, so having a full army of them sounds like a nice idea :)

I Kaese rise to the challenge of E TENEBRAE LUX on the side of the Blood Angels and vow to complete:

 

Captain: Jump Pack, Storm shield, Thunder hammer

Chaplain: Bolt pistol

Commander Dante

Librarian in Terminator Armour: Combi-melta, Force axe

Lieutenant: Jump Pack, Master-crafted boltgun, Power fist

Sanguinary Priest: Bolt pistol, Chainsword

Furioso Dreadnought: Frag cannon, Furioso fist, Meltagun

 

of total value 902pts 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 will add the picture when I have the chance. Would have preferred this to start on 14th, as I won’t have any time to work on these next couple of weeks. Work trip to Chicago really messes up the hobby :)

Well, you've got the vow in now and that's the main thing; hopefully you'll be chomping at the bit when you get back!

 

Also 902 points 0.o that will pull up our average view for sure! All the best!

WIPs in here, or will you also be starting up your own plog?

Interesting. I have to say, I find it easier to paint black rather than red, but perhaps that's due to my red recipe... To me, black seems easier as it's one less coat of paint to apply, no shading needed, and then that leaves just the highlights and detail - it's certainly the advantage Black Legion and Black Templars have but I guess that's lessened these days with the multitude of undercoat sprays available.

 

Each to their own though ;)

gallery_104017_14504_665692.jpg

I will be putting in a 2nd Vow, once these are done. However, some parts are still in the mail and I don't want to vow things I can't touch yet.

..

I might need a quick tutorial on uploading pics here, or do I just get a photobucket going?

Well Silas, that’s exactly it! You set your own standards!

 

Do the best you can, this is not a Golden Daemon-style competition. You can use the ETL to seek advice and compare notes and hopefully end up with some painted units that otherwise would have remained plastic grey.

 

I strongly encourage you to join! :)
