=] 12 Months of Hobby Challenge 2021 [=

[Grotsmasha]

Skip to a month...

Welcome to the 3nd year of the 12 Months of Hobby Challenge. I started this challenge in 2019 to keep me motivated throughout the year, and to help me stick to my Hobby goal of completing *at least* one model per month. This year I hope to work through the Primaris and Scenery models from the Hatchette Conquest Collection.

In 2019 I developed a series of Randomizer Tables are still available for this year, and you are most welcome to use them yourselves, or ask to put on the Randomizer List, and I will roll for everyone on the list a week prior to the new month.


If you've missed the previous years Challenges, you can find them here,
2019 - 2019 Summary - Additional Awards - 2019 Favourite - 2019 Favourite Poll
2020 - 2020 Summary - Additional Awards - 2020 Favourite - 2020 Favourite Poll - The Campaign Summary
2021 - 2021 Summary - Additional Awards - 2021 Favourite - 2021 Favourite Poll

As with last year, I'd like some company, and to give people a little extra for sticking with it, I've developed a campaign for this year based around painting your models.

If you'd like to join me with a commitment to 1x model (or more) per month for the 12 months of 2020, I'd love to have you aboard.

The Rules are pretty simple;

• I DO NOT expect you to use the Random Tables, you are more than welcome to pledge models towards you're existing armies, or choose a model you would like to complete.
• Multiple model pledges are fine, but ONLY ONE must be finished per month to complete the Challenge.
• A starting pic is required. Any model that is incomplete, even those that only require basing, are eligible for this Challenge.
• A finished pic is also required, this MUST be completed to your standards, AND the model MUST be based.

If you know what you'd like to pledge, pop this pip in your signature,



then pledge in the following format, you'll need to vow each month you wish to participate,

I, { Insert your name } , embark on the 12 Months of Hobby Challenge, and for the month of { insert correct month } pledge to complete { insert the model/s to be completed } by month's end.

Each month will feature a selection of Awards,

• The Completed Badge is awarded for Completing 1+ model for the month.
• The Seriously Badge is awarded for Completing 5+ models in a month
• The Artificer Badge is arbitrarily awarded to models I find impressive each month
• The Speed Daemon is awarded for Completing a model within 24hrs
• The Last Minute Badge is awarded for Completing your vow on the last day, or two extension days of the month
• The Stubborn Badge is awarded for Completing a previous vowed but uncompleted model
• The Favourite is worth 3CP

You may make up to two Plodding Along Vows for the year, one for the first six months, and one for the second six months. These are intended for larger, multiple month projects, or an Army goal for the year.

Each completed ETL Vow is worth 5CP

All badges will upgrade Black, Silver, Gold and Platinum, as they are earned multiple times.

If you know what you're going to paint, then jump right in and click HERE to skip the Randomizer Tables, and make your pledge below.


*IF* , however, you would like to use the tables, you'll need 2D6.

• You are not bound to your rolls, If you're not feeling it, re-roll
• Re-Roll any duplicates, either Faction OR Sub-faction (if you want to).
• Feel free to choose a Faction / Sub Faction and roll on their chart.
• I am more than happy to roll for anyone wishing to participate, please notify me if you'd like to be added to the Randomizer Tables list and I'll roll for everyone on the list in the last week of the month for the coming month.

Think I'll join you on the terrain idea, will get a list later. Other then that I'll add last years' plodding along to the list of the IK Preceptor I forgot was on my list in 2020. Plus for this year I'm only going to vow a unit per month though I'll be painting up much more then that.

[Dosjetka]

I'd very much like to be added to the randomiser list, please, Grot. :)

[Givemead]

I, Givemead, accept the 12 Months of Hobby Challenge and for the month of January vow to paint a Daemon Prince for the golry of the Chaos faction.

 

[painting.for.my.sanity]

Sign me up! I'll be vowing an Exorcist for January.

 

EDIT: Realised I hadn't actually posted any photos of the Exorcist for my vow, so I've quickly grabbed these from my IG story - https://imgur.com/a/po76jIW

Edited January 3, 2021 by SufficientAnonymity

[Majkhel]

Hah, I'll be joining you as well, fraters!

Plan for 2021 is to complete my Blood Angels 5th Company, which is only ~13 models short of being full. I will definitely add more than that to the Blood Angels force, but I'm also thinking of starting a Sisters army. We'll see how it goes.

Cheers to all, who already pledged and those who will! You're true motivators and I'm happy to be with such Company of Heroes!

I, andes, embark on the 12 Months of Hobby Challenge, and for the month of January pledge to complete a Primaris Techmarine by month's end.

Excellent :tu:  The dice gods decree a 2, and a 5 (and a 4), your choice of Agents of the Imperium or Heresy Blood Angels
