Captain Semper Posted July 22, 2019 Author Share Posted July 22, 2019 Yeah, listen to Fortis (fantastic yellow btw)! You cannot afford to relax the pace - you're doing a fantastic job so far but Week 7 was kind of slacking. Remember that combined with AoD-T you have pledged similar number of points to Chaos... So this is the ultimate completion rate game now. ;) UPDATED TO THIS POINT! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StruManChu Posted July 22, 2019 Share Posted July 22, 2019 No pics, but transfers and edge highlights are just about done on my big fat mob of infantry. Almost ready for weathering. My goodness this is a hard slog. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My goodness this is a hard slog. :sweat: Like Altis, I'm looking forward to seeing them, Stru. My hat's off to you for doing massed infantry. I'd lose what's left of my mind if I tried to do that many all at once. :lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Viridia Posted July 22, 2019 Share Posted July 22, 2019 Finally updated the starting pic of my second vow, apologies, work is a bore and I got distracted with efforts on a truescale model! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lionofjudah Posted July 23, 2019 Share Posted July 23, 2019 Back from vacay... it was 105 here while I was at the beach where it was 99... it rained and is now 78 here... I love KY weather.

Phatsquirre1 Posted July 23, 2019 Share Posted July 23, 2019 Took way too long, but here's my second vow complete! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Henimann Posted July 24, 2019 Share Posted July 24, 2019 Been taking a little longer than I thought this would - midterms for my graduate school classes last week kept me from finishing my painting then. All models are now completed as far as painting goes, just need to finish basing and my first vow will be complete! And a small preview of what MIGHT be a part of my second vow...

Semper Fortis Posted July 24, 2019 Share Posted July 24, 2019 That's what I'm talking about! We're rolling! Since last week's cut off: Stru is still faithfully slogging through infantry, Viridia's back from the true scale detour. Lionofjudah is rockin' his mountain of metal. Henimann is soooooo close to a completion and hints at another vow. Going to make it by this week's cutoff, brother? And Phatsquirre1 rang the bell with his handsome second completion! Let's hear from the rest of ya'll! Week 8 is ending soon. Clock's tickin'. Me? I'm going to give it my very best to finish this last Leviathan before the deadline and get a third vow on record... back to work... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lionofjudah Posted July 24, 2019 Share Posted July 24, 2019 Right on frater!!! Completions and progress!! Throwing out a pic of my next vow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StruManChu Posted July 24, 2019 Share Posted July 24, 2019 @lion - I see Dorn, Typhon, a Deredeo, and a LOAD of capes. I'm intrigued! Quick update from me (at 1am GMT on a work night, because I love you all as much as I apparently hate myself), gloss varnish is done, so weathering starts tomorrow. I'm almost loathe to do it because everything looks so neat and tidy as it is, but I know I must! Going mad looking forward to vow 2 at this point, just for something different. @Captain Semper, I'll be sending you a PM in the next day or two to pick your brain, as I've got some older in-progress stuff that I'd like to include if I can.

Yessir- Dorn will be my first primer here... and he won’t be gold;) Typhon is going to get cup up and made into someone cool... maybe Raan The capes are all the primaris dudes... they all come with capes... and goofy looking packs that are gone for mkiv and mkvi packs The deredero has a pair of sentinel legs next to him for the chicken leg conversion Aaaaannnmnddddd the Culln leviathan is getting pertabos knight base, a BT mkiv head and some IF brass etch goodies to replace the silly scorpions;)- I’ve wanted to do another leviathan for awhile and the fact FW has redone the DDP molds means the doors aren’t gonna break in a new pod and they are so much smaller than a knight to transport;) Stru....

Captain Semper Posted July 25, 2019 Author Share Posted July 25, 2019 @ Phatsquirre: Excellent completion man - I particularly like the aircraft with the oil stains on the wings! :tu: The first second-vow to be completed for the AoD-L too! @ Henniman: WHAT IS GOING ON WITH THE TITANS YOU PEOPLE! :LOL: I'm not marking your vow as complete yet, correct? Great job man, I sure look fwd to the next one though... @ Lionofjudah: This is coming along very nicely indeed! Gryphonycus I take it? Man, when this get done, it'll be super-awesome!

Henimann Posted July 25, 2019 Share Posted July 25, 2019 @CaptainSemper: yup, should have it completed by tonight? Just waiting for bases to dry. @Phatsquirre1: Your Medusa looks amazing. Any chance you can tell me what paints you use? Might have to lift that scheme for my 40kGuard army once I'm done with my current 30k binge.

Henimann Posted July 26, 2019 Share Posted July 26, 2019 At long last, my first vow is complete! Going to hold off on making my second vow for a couple weeks...wrapping up my summer session for graduate school so not sure if I will be able to devote alot of time to the hobby. After that, though - I'll be delivering something big, maybe TITANIC even.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UPDATED TO THIS POINT! Hey Capn... I’m brownscaling her to white before a clear red for Ignatum... hope it turns out;) I’ll also be taking a few panels to yellow and then taping off for the black stripes. I’m trying several new techniques out and using some of IA masterclass 2’s reaver painting. I’m contemplating the hip joints and want to figure out what kind of stressors would be involved there as they are obviously not a ball and socket joint but are a rotational hinge.... the right thigh armor plate is a 3d printed replacement and I may primer that as a battleside replacement(what color is adamant it?;) The pistons on the warhound are so short I may only get 1 or 2 compression rings on them.

Captain Semper Posted July 27, 2019 Author Share Posted July 27, 2019 @ lionofjudah: Ignatum! :woot: do those stripes man, do those stripes!!! @ Congratulations man, a solid completion there! And a Titanic promise? Oh boy, this is getting out of hand! :lol: @ TheStatusJoe: Talking of things getting out of hand, don't you think you should have vowed for the Traitors? I mean this kind of production suggests daemonic aid! I'll have the (as yet non-existent) Inquisition look into it! Congratulations man this is very impressive stuff and you are a good candidate on becoming the ETL VII Martyr! UPDATED TO THIS POINT! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
