Almagor Posted May 19, 2019 Share Posted May 19, 2019 My participation in last year's ETL was cut short by a rather expected and joyous event: I became a father of twins. None the less I managed to squeeze in one more model, an out of competition entry of Veteran Scout Sergeant Naaman, or at least my version of him: To commemorate this event, this year, hopefully i'll be able to squeeze in the real McCoy: Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/355325-muster-of-the-unforgiven/page/8/#findComment-5316958 Share on other sites More sharing options...
G8Keeper Posted May 19, 2019 Share Posted May 19, 2019 Well, due to an observation that was made during the tournament today, I do know my second vow will be having Sammael in it. Why am I vowing Sammael if I already have him? Well, I own the METAL one. And one of the players at the tourney brought his Tau, and brought (but didn't use) a Tigershark. The metal Sammael weighs slightly more than a Tigershark. Yes, really. We actually had myself, the Tau player and a third person hold both models in each hand. So the metal one is going to become a display piece and never see the gaming table again :lol: Just pin everything. Seriously I cannot stress that enough. I'd also invest the time in magnets for the sword arm and flying stand.

Skorp Posted May 19, 2019 Share Posted May 19, 2019 And my axe! ... I mean, I could do one of these guys...http://i66.tinypic.com/30jprbd.jpg Does Namaan have any specific rules in 8th?

Almagor Posted May 20, 2019 Share Posted May 20, 2019 Does Namaan have any specific rules in 8th? Nope. The poor dude died heroically fighting a Deff' Dread on Cadilus... Still, he is remembered as an iconic model of the Dark Angels.

Chaplain Raeven Posted May 20, 2019 Share Posted May 20, 2019 I'm increasing the size of one of my vows with a squad of terminators. Found some ancient suits on the forgeworld of EB4Y Prime. After I've seen so many classics on the last few pages, it compels me to throw in some heavy metal as well. These will be fun, although really tiny. And I managed to get the Supressors in a pose without those horrible flight stands. Not quite perfect, but it's alright. The pose of the sarge looks less awkward in person. +++ARE YOU BORROWING A CHAPLAINS SKULL HELM? UNAUTHORIZED USE WILL ONLY MAKE THINGS WORSE. Like no biscuits with your tea+++ +++ARE YOU CLAIMING I'M POSING AS A CHAPLAIN, BROTHER? IT IS NOT RECOMMENDED TO SAY SUCH PREPOSTRIOUS WORDS IN PROXIMITY OF THE ASPIRANTS. LET'S CONTINUE OUR DISCUSSION IN OUR REGULAR CELL. DO NOT DESPAIR, I SHALL BRING THE BISCUITS.+++ Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/355325-muster-of-the-unforgiven/page/8/#findComment-5317440 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted May 20, 2019 Share Posted May 20, 2019 This will be my first vow 5 Intercessors to bring the previous 5 up to full strength. 5 Infiltrators to again bring the previous 5 up to full strength 1 Vanguard Master slight conversion (Reiver Master removed the helmet too) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/355325-muster-of-the-unforgiven/page/8/#findComment-5317781 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Always great to see some of the excellent old Terminator sculpts! They are not that tiny in comparison to the new ones though. Or did you put them on 25mm bases?

Or did you put them on 25mm bases? 32mm, it seemed a nice compromise. They are pretty tiny, even my old tacticals are larger than these guys.

Gederas Posted May 21, 2019 Share Posted May 21, 2019 My Deredeo and Mark II & Mark IV Apothecaries should be showing up today. Those will be part of my first or second vow, I still need to determine what my vows will be :lol: Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/355325-muster-of-the-unforgiven/page/8/#findComment-5318075 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skorp Posted May 21, 2019 Share Posted May 21, 2019 I just got a metal sammael in the mail, probably not gonna put him together for this ETL (next year!), but had to express my excitement somewhere.

Gederas Posted May 22, 2019 Share Posted May 22, 2019 Okay, so my Deredeo and Apothecaries showed up, they've been washed, cleaned and assembled to the point where I can prime them, I just need to ask one question:Cap, does it matter if the model is PRIMED multiple colours? For example, my Deredeo will be mostly primed black, but one knee pad and the head will be grey, as I'll be painting those Deathwing Bone coloured instead of my standard black. This is quite important to me, because the Apothecaries need their backpacks and Helix shoulder pads primed grey because they'll be white.

Brother_Bethor Posted May 22, 2019 Share Posted May 22, 2019 I think I'm going to repent for my previous transgressions (failed ETC vows). A LOT of unpainted miniatures are sitting in the closet and I'm pretty sure I'll be able to pick something appropriate like a full Tactical Squad or something. Hmm, could be possible to vow the Anvil Industries' Black Ops Fireteam as a DA Reivers or Infiltrators?

Guest Posted May 23, 2019 Share Posted May 23, 2019 I have updated my vow... With the motivation of the rest of us I want to make sure we nail our first vows. So to that I have added 3 Suppies and 3 Aggressors So in total 1 Vanguard Master 5 Infiltrators 5 Intercessors 3 Aggressors 3 Suppressors I am hoping to do all this in a month and all going well I will be doing another vow of similar size. Come the 1st I will get all mine undercoated red, recess shaded and soft armour done. I am pretty excited to get to the Suppies and Aggressors Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/355325-muster-of-the-unforgiven/page/8/#findComment-5319579 Share on other sites More sharing options...
G8Keeper Posted May 24, 2019 Share Posted May 24, 2019 Some progress on my vow. Just some assembly steps completed. Need some advice though. Do I: Fully assemble the interior so I can heat it all and bend to shape in 1 go, then paint. Half assemble the interior and potentially have to heat/shape twice, but paint easier. Leave as is and paint all of the interior separately then fully assemble/heat but have to touch up a fair bit after. Conundrum!

You are of course probably right. It also allows me to do more pre-work before the vow date by assembling the interior first.
