Calibos Posted July 8, 2018 Share Posted July 8, 2018 I will, at some point, get a better camera for taking pictures of my miniatures. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/346715-dark-angels-outpost/page/17/#findComment-5120076 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Company Master Holden Posted July 9, 2018 Share Posted July 9, 2018 Alright ya'll I figured that it was time for an update after I vowed relatively early and then ghosted on everyone. Since this is my first ETL, I understand why everyone encourages smaller vows and I definitely see how easy it is to fall in a painting rut and lose motivation. However, seeing ya'lls work on here has continually inspired me, and I will continue to do The Lion's work with Grim Resolve. As of right now, I have completed my maxed out Ravenwing Biker Squad, Sammael, two Dark Talons, 1 Ravenwing Landspeeder, and 1 Talonmaster, leaving only the last Landspeeder, some basing and touch up work for all the models, and the application of decals before my vow is complete. I hoped to have all this done by the end of June, but I figured that I would go all out for these guys so that I can finally field a full army with everything painted and based. Also, I will try to have my WIP pictures up soon, but since I am so close to finishing my vow I may just have an end product post!

Calibos Posted July 9, 2018 Share Posted July 9, 2018 Now that I finished the first vow, I might actually toss in another soon! Got some TacMarines that need painting! And of course the sacred Darkshroud! Will go over my stores of paint and see what I can do!

Brother Karael Posted July 9, 2018 Share Posted July 9, 2018 Hm, I have stumbled upon some free time. Would I manage to assemble and paint my Dark Talon in time?

Calibos Posted July 10, 2018 Share Posted July 10, 2018 Hm, I have stumbled upon some free time. Would I manage to assemble and paint my Dark Talon in time? Do it! I had great fun assembling and painting mine, and it wrecks traitors on the board like the Lion on Caliban!

Murdicus Posted July 10, 2018 Share Posted July 10, 2018 Anyone having trouble painting in the UK heat? Paint dries awfully fast in the pallette. Try a tray of ice or cold water underneath the pallet maybe?

Company Master Holden Posted July 10, 2018 Share Posted July 10, 2018 Anyone having trouble painting in the UK heat? Paint dries awfully fast in the pallette. Try a tray of ice or cold water underneath the pallet maybe? So now I am curious: is it a dry heat or more of a humid heat? Here in Tennessee it has been brutal temps with high humidity, and I have found that by putting a dehumidifier in my workspace my rattle can primer performs better and my wet pallet keeps the paint better. Now why it keeps the paint better I have no idea as you would think the dehumidifier would suck the moisture out?

Now why it keeps the paint better I have no idea as you would think the dehumidifier would suck the moisture out? It the kind of dry heat we usually get for about 10 days a years but it’s been like this since mid April. The grass and trees are dying and we’ve had no rain. It’s summer in England and there has been NO RAIN. It truly is the Apocalypse.

JJD Posted July 10, 2018 Share Posted July 10, 2018 That said I’ve finished my vow A lieutenant with combi-plasma and power sword and 3 black knights with power sword and Melta bombs 226 points for the Lion My vow didn’t include the melta bomb but it is modelled and painted on the huntmaster so I would like to include them.

Jolemai Posted July 12, 2018 Share Posted July 12, 2018 Absolutely! And there is another thing: we need to beat the Blood Angels! They used to be the champions back during the LPC days and we thoroughly beaten them to become champions for two consecutive years before the LPC perished. Then on to the ETL we came second the first year and champions in the second but from then on we started to slip... By ETL V we scored below the Blood Angels in absolute terms and, with a lower completion rate, we also scored lower on a modified basis... This cannot stand! Let’s take some oaths of moment to bring the First back to the top where they belong and certainly above the space vampires! Folks, remember that Semper started a vendetta with the Blood Angels. At the moment we're ahead but that can all change very quickly. Get those completions in so we can beat the heretic, mutant, traitor, and xenos together and may the best Angel win in the aftermath!

sneakybamsen Posted July 13, 2018 Share Posted July 13, 2018 I should complete at least 1 scout squad this weekend, possibly the second one as well. Then onto the stormraven. I HAVE to make it.

G8Keeper Posted July 13, 2018 Share Posted July 13, 2018 I should comfortably get my 2nd vow completed. I'll bust a gut to try and leave myself a week to get a character done for a third vow if possible.

Chaplain Raeven Posted July 14, 2018 Share Posted July 14, 2018 I, GreyRavenC, rise to the challenge of E TENEBRAE LUX on the side of the Dark Angels and vow to complete a squad of 6 Intercessors of total value off 113 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 It's not much, but it's something Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/346715-dark-angels-outpost/page/17/#findComment-5123904 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Company Master Holden Posted July 14, 2018 Share Posted July 14, 2018 As promised brothers here is an update on my vow. Behold the forces of the Ravenwing that are complete. (I know that I didn't vow the Black Knights in the picture, but it felt right to put them in there for the family photograph!) Here are the remaining units that need to be completed. With any luck, all of it will be done by the end of Friday!
