[Boc]

Was only able to finish up the oblits, Cypher, and blue Scribes this month. End of the month got away from me a bit, but little Boc #3 was finally born early this morning.

 

 

[Dwango]

Congrats @Boc! Excellent news! I had a 3rd earlier this year. It's pretty hectic now you're out numbered but it's fun too! 

 

My vow is complete along with another one off the plodding along vow, Umbral 6. 

 

 

[Paladin777]

I, Paladin777, embark on the 12 Months of Hobby Challenge, and for the month of December pledge to complete 5 Vanguard Veterans and a Librarian Dreadnaught by month's end for the glory of the Blood Angels and Sanguinius!

Edited December 1, 2023 by Paladin777

[Rogue]

Congratulations to you and yours, Boc - I hope it all went well.

 

To finish off the year, I've put together a third Primus. But for a bit of variety, he's been kit-bashed with some spares from RogueChaplain's AdMech, and a head swap. 

 

(The arm is off for ease of painting, and the sword is so I can hold it...)

 

I, Rogue, vow to complete one Primus by month's end.

[Brother Argent]

I promise I achieved something this month.  Its been a rough one with challenges to both my physical (Covid again) and mental health.  Whilst I have done abysmally poorly compared to what I had hoped I have made some progress.  I've got a lot to get sorted for this month (see my Argent Forge Blog for intended model counts...)  I hope to get some progress underway tomorrow as well as get my finished Sisters up (just need to do bases).  Hopefully that will still be in this month.  Now to figure if this year is going to end with a triumphant roar or a defeated whimper...

[Rhavien]

I, Rhavien, vow to complete one Land Raider Redeemer by month's end.

 

Want to finish the year off with something big! I need to get off all the dust and reprime him to match my current colors.

As I have not painted one of my Consecrated Blades in the new paints I am doing a test model for this. He will end up being part of a new Squad.

 

 

 

 

Carry over for me, past week has been insanely busy... And probably will be for another week.

[Lord_Ikka]

I, Lord_Ikka, vow to paint for the month of December the following- the Lion, Firestrike servo-turret, and a Lord-Discordant (both previously shown), to make up from not having finished them the month before. Hopefully I can also get in the three Tomb Blades as well to finish off my Plodding along vow, but I'm not going to vow them yet because I have no idea how my month will turn out...

[Dwango]

I, Dwango, embark on the 12 Months of Hobby Challenge, and for the month of December pledge to complete the big octarius terrain, 13 servo-automata, 2 techpriests, 4 grey knights and 3 quin's by month's end

 

I have more dark mech lined up if I get giddy and complete these early.

[Brother Argent]

So... While I wait for basing materials to dry I will start off my December attempt at a comeback.

 

I, Brother Argent, vow for the month of December to paint; 1x Primaris Chaplain as part of my Plodding Along Vow.

 

 

Excuse the badly stripped paint.  For some reason it wouldn't come off.  I painted this guy as past of my Star Leopards a couple of years ago but as I move away from them till I can revisit them how I want I am re purposing a few of them for the Interdictors.  This guy and the redemptor I will get up later.  I think I might try and do this guy via the Two Hour Challenge as well.  He is all primed and ready to go now.  Lets get this thing started...

[Grotsmasha]

Almost to post my own completions for November....

 

 

 

 

[Brother Argent]

Makes me ashamed to post after some of that awesome stuff from Grot but:

I hearby declare my November vow rather belatedly complete.  Those models were damned painful.  Tool me longer to paint each of the sisters the it did the pentitent engine.  I am happy with me first attempt at darker skin tones though (see Repentia on far left) and I feel my new way of doing gold and the white has worked well too.  With any luck I will get my first completion for this month up shortly too.

[Trokair]

I have a plan for December, kind off.

 

First of all I am building a Loyalist Iron Havoc as an incarnation of my character for a game down in the RPG Nook.

Spoiler

 

Secondly a teeny tinny cutesy RH1NO turned up, Not sure what colour scheme I am going to go for yet.

[Grotsmasha]

I'm waiting for mkIII LI squads before I leap, but it's going to be the 1st.

[Cleon]

And got the Lancers done, The new pair and with their other two friends

[Brother Argent]

And done...

 

Not a great photo but, eh, what else is new.  

 

Anyway, to keep the ball rolling (Its got a long way to go yet) I, Brother Argent, vow for the Month of December to vow another part of my Plodding Along vow in the form of 5x Intercessors

 

 

I've got a huge weekend coming up (starting Thursday Night) so wish me luck.  With any chance of finishing everything I hope too I need to have these guys done no later then Wednesday night...

Having failed my November vow due to bad planning and bad luck (I allocated free hobby time for end of last week and intended to get the models done by that timebut got covid instead), I would like to re-pledge the 6 scouts; therefore, I, Brother Christopher, embark on the 12 Months of Hobby Challenge, and for the month of December pledge to complete 6 Space Marine Scouts by month's end, for the glory of the Black Templars.
