Dragonlover Posted August 1, 2018 Share Posted August 1, 2018 Mate, you broke your thumb, then attempted to swap hands and keep going! That's not letting the side down, it's the exact opposite!

Gederas Posted August 2, 2018 Share Posted August 2, 2018 Yeah.... I'm sorry I failed you all. I'll make it up next year. And I won't vow :cuss-ing cultists next time. :lol: Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/346733-chaos-space-marines-outpost/page/49/#findComment-5136244 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iron Father Ferrum Posted August 2, 2018 Share Posted August 2, 2018 Yeah.... I'm sorry I failed you all. I'll make it up next year. And I won't vow :cuss-ing cultists next time. :lol: It's a hard lesson we have all been learning since Dark Vengeance was released.

DuskRaider Posted August 2, 2018 Share Posted August 2, 2018 I did it this year with Cultists and Poxwalkers... never again. I'd rather do another 2 Warhounds than that.

Augustus b'Raass Posted August 2, 2018 Share Posted August 2, 2018 I have a bad feeling we came in second. Looking at the incomplete first vows or subsequent incomplete vows which erased all prior effort, it doesn't look good. Hopefully I'm wrong... Just Slave to Darkness though - actually one of the last people I'd expect it from. Well done, everyone!!

Augustus b'Raass Posted August 2, 2018 Share Posted August 2, 2018 While we wait, let's see some traditional completed vows compilation posts!!I'll start off. Vow #1 Vow #2 Vow #3 Vow #4 Vow #5 And lastly, a picture of all the miniatures I finished for ETL VI, together: Also, I'confident we'll win again. And then there will be some dancing.

DuskRaider Posted August 2, 2018 Share Posted August 2, 2018 I guess you're right, when I looked yesterday it was much, much more. I didn't think about all of our honorable brethren who pulled through at the last moment to boost us. Maybe we did win, after all.

Augustus b'Raass Posted August 2, 2018 Share Posted August 2, 2018 You can and should be rightly proud of that collection, commander dawnstar! That's just a crap ton of marines you did, and a heldrake no less - so much trim, it'd drive me crazy!!

Dr_Ruminahui Posted August 2, 2018 Share Posted August 2, 2018 I posted this previously, not knowing the traditions (this being my first ETL), so here it is again. That was a lot of fun. Its great seeing all the fantastic work, and all the positive comments and likes from everyone for my work helped keep the fantastic work from being too intimidating. Thanks everyone.

The4thHorseman Posted August 2, 2018 Share Posted August 2, 2018 I ran the rough numbers the other nite and its single character close in terms of SCR. So a Recount maybe in the cards.

Dr_Ruminahui Posted August 2, 2018 Share Posted August 2, 2018 I forgot to mention above: Dawnstar, I love your knight. When arrayed with everything else you've painted, there is no question of what team he's on - its dark, brooding paint scheme, with the maroon vibrant enough to make the piece visually stunning but dark enough to carry the mood of the piece really carries it. Now, at some point you may (or may not) want to add some spikes, but they certainly aren't necessary. Personally, I wouldn't make it as spikey as your test model, which was kind of over-the-top, but parts of what you did I did quite like - I think I'll be stealing your spikey shoulder look for when I finish chaosing up my own knight.

Iron Skull Mask Posted August 2, 2018 Share Posted August 2, 2018 What, we came in second? Hell! Now I feel really bad... I'm so sorry! I really tried to get things done, and the Hell Blade is, but the Storm Eagle will take a couple days more. It was just too ambitious a goal for me to get those models build and painted in such a short time. I mean the Hell Blade isn't much to build but stripes and trim still took some time - man, that little bugger got trim... Storm Eagle just is quite a bit of work, and you don't want it to look too bad in the end, so there's no use rushing it. I swear, I tried my best to get it done, but couldn't... I feel so bad right now.

Commander Dawnstar Posted August 2, 2018 Share Posted August 2, 2018 No need to be too hard on yourself. In the end our big issue this year was that we finished with 18/55 first vows incomplete, those vows representing just a little short of 11,000 points. I think the Blood Angels deserve to win given how much less they left on the table. --- Thanks again, Dr_Ruminahui. I think my long term plan is going to be to get in touch with one of my more artistically-inclined friends, or someone they can recommend me, and both commission from them some custom Household emblems and get some advice about how to best place decals about the Knight. Like you mentioned with the spikes, I'm very bad at interpreting how something is going to look when it's finished and my general approach is to keep adding to it until I go overboard. I think I'm more inclined to go with a fairly clean Renegade rather than something overtly Chaosy now, so hopefully with some help and time I'll be able to achieve something both more personal and that works a lot better.

Dragonlover Posted August 2, 2018 Share Posted August 2, 2018 The only person who I trust not to stuff up the count is the good Captain, so until he gives the final report I'm staying optimistic! I will admit it looks pretty bloody close though!

Augustus b'Raass Posted August 3, 2018 Share Posted August 3, 2018 Aw man, if we become second, there will be extra banners of shame. But it's all speculation until the good Captain posts his post. Until then.... Post your completion posts!

Yeah, vowing a Storm Eagle, a kit that is widely known as one of the most difficult FW kits around, with only 12 days to go, was kinda... well, I'll leave the wording to you... It took me 21 days to finish back in January...

Iron-Daemon Forge Posted August 3, 2018 Share Posted August 3, 2018 I really tried to get things done, and the Hell Blade is, but the Storm Eagle will take a couple days more. I swear I will never build another Storm Eagle ever again. In regard Cultist & poxwalker due seen post over this - Is it just the number or/& detail? One thing would be - Batch paint the base coat on 5-10 models, get that all done to what ever in the unit. Once that lot all done, get paper or a spare box. Get the spray bottle with brown shade.
