++ The Lockdown Painting Challenge 2020 ++

[Grotsmasha]

The Inner Circle presents:

With the Venerable Captain Semper making the hard decision to postpone the gargantuan task that is the E Tenebrae Lux Inter-forum Painting Challenge this year due to the extended effects of the Coronavirus, we the Inner Circle shall not leave you high and dry.

Think of the Lock-down Painting Challenge as an ETL Lite, for those of you who remember the Librarium Painting Challenges of years past, this format will be familiar to you, with a few adjustments.

WHAT: The Challenge is simple, complete one model in three months. The model must be fully painted and based to your own standard. Feel free to pledge and complete more, but once you have completed the Challenge's single model, it is secure and cannot be lost. Your starting model may be assembled, and may have amaximum of a single base colour applied.

WHEN: The event will run May 15th through August 15th 2020.

Where: The Event will be run from the WIP Forum in The Forge, and will have one central thread for all Forums to declare their Vows and Completions.

HOW: Make your vow in the format (or any creative variant) provided below.

"I, {Insert name here}, vow to complete {at least 1 model of your choice here} for the Glory of the {Insert your Forum of Choice} on or by the 15th of August 2020, or bare the Badge of Shame until year's end"

You will also need to provide a minimum of a starting picture with your Vow post, and a completion picture with your Completion post.

*IMPORTANT* The Forum / Faction you choose DOES NOT limit which model/s you can paint. You may paint any model you wish and allocate your Pearl to whichever Forum / Faction you wish.

Completing the Challenge will earn one pearl for your Forum. Unlike the ETL where points play a big role in the Event, points have no role here, the only thing that counts here is Participants and Completions.

There are three Tiers of Completion Gold, Silver, and Bronze.

• Gold will be awarded for completing the Challenge on of before the 15th of June,
• Silver will be awarded for completing the Challenge on of before the 15th of July,
• Bronze will be awarded for completing the Challenge on or before August 15th.

These tiers will only affect the Completion Badge you earn, and not the outcome of the event.

The Forums and Factions will be divided along the same lines of the ETL, with the addition of the Other Games Faction

Pledges from the Announcement thread;

I, Karhedron, vow to complete a Repulsor for the Glory of the Russ (Space Wolves) on or by the 15th of August 2020, or bare the Badge of Shame until year's end!

May my Saga grow ever longer and more glorious!

I, Axineton, vow to complete 1 Harlequin Starweaver for the Glory of the Aeldari on or by the 15th of August 2020, or bare the Badge of Shame until year's end.

Roll on tomorrow.

I, ranulf (the revenant) vow to complete at least one squad of 6 Grey Hunters (approximately 72 pts) until the 15th of August 2020, or bare the Badge of Shame until year's end.
I'll do pics later...

I, Zephaniah Adriyen, Mekboss Dedflash of Waaaaaaagh! Dedflash (or Beakiesmasha if you ask the Warboss), Corrosive King Leviathan of House Leviathan, Chaos Lord Steelwither of the Heralds of Corrosion, Captain Vordin Krayn of the Raven Guard, Jarl Ragnar Blackmane of the Vlka Fenryka, Grand Sorcerer Sy’alath of the Thousand Sons, Spiritseer Ciradyl of Craftworld Ulthwé, Shield-Captain Tiberius of the Emissaries Imperatus, Master of Possession Mortelaz of the Night Lords Legion, Chaos Lord Volkmar of the Iron Warriors Legion, Inquisitor Fabian Antony of the Ordo Malleus and Troupe Master “Mirthful Blade” of the Frozen Stars Grand Masque, hereby vow to complete one “Makari, da Banna-Wava” of Waaaaaaagh! Ghazghkull, for the honor of the Blood Angels forum. They have treated me well in my time in this hobby, and even though I have moved past the time of flight and blood, I feel that the users of the Blood Angels forum deserve my support in this challenge. This will be done on or by 0623020.M03, or I shall bear the Badge of Shame upon my signature until year’s end.

Edit: I'm a fool, this is not the thread we're looking for, and it starts tomorrow, I believe.

I, andes, vow to complete Tor Garadon for the Glory of the Imperial Fists Chapter of the Space Marines on or by the 15th of August 2020, or bear the Badge of Shame in my signature until year's end.

Can I participate in this event if my country has come out of Lockdown?
Kidding ofc.

I Stobz vow to complete one Venerable Contemptor Dreadnought for the Glory of the Deathwing and the First Legion on or before the 15 August.
Failure is not an option, but righteous penance will be due should the enemy prevail in its attempt to deny my toil.

I, Xin Ceithan, vow to complete one Noise Marine for the Glory of the Realm of Chaos and the Heretic Astartes by 15th of August 2020 or wear the Badge of Shame as has been decreed.

This looks like the perfect opportunity to get some paint in for the Dark Gods.

And so it begins:

"I, Blindhamster, vow to complete 1 Gravis Captain for the Glory of the glorious and most awesome and loyal servants of the emperor, the sons of Sanguinius - Blood Angels on or by the 15th of August 2020, or bare the Badge of Shame until year's end"

"I, Spiros14, vow to complete Chief Librarian Mephiston for the Glory of the Blood Angels on or by the 15th of August 2020, or bare the Badge of Shame until year's end"

I really need to get this guy done, he's been sitting unpainted since I got him in December.

"I, Indefragable, vow to complete Chief Librarian Mephiston (Primaris) for the Glory of the Blood Angels on or by the 15th of August 2020, or bear the Badge of Shame until year's end."

(Ditto to @Spiros14 )

EDIT: text adjustment

"I, Ultra kblock, vow to complete a Primaris Inceptor for the Glory of the Blood Angels on or by the 15th of August 2020, or bare the Badge of Shame until year's end"

I, appiah5, vow to complete Death Company Captain Tycho for the Glory of the Blood Angels on or by the 15th of August 2020, or bear the Badge of Shame until year's end.
