I managed to get some time to paint after my first game of HH and knocked this guy out. Playing really seems to motivate hobbying for me, especially when a model ends up doing well on the table.

Cool, I love the tastefully over-the-top additions, particularly the sword. One can never have too many weapons.

It seems my resolve this year suffered like every other year... My librarian has been sitting unfinished on my desk since mid april...

 

Time to remedy this, I will revow him for the month of august to kickstart my motivation again !

August vow complete, the Test Rubric has served its purpose.

 

While it might not be the scheme I imagined all those years ago when I built them it is good enough for me to be happy with, and given the amount of trim there was it was not painful. Will have to see how I feel after another 39 Rubrics and all the other stuff.

Here the two are together, there is enough blue and metal on the Tzaangor to not look out of place I hope, while looking distinct.

I, Brother Christopher, further vow to complete another model, a Techmarine, by month's end.

Given my track record, this might be pushing it :tongue:

 

At this point, as always, I'd like to extend my congratulations and respect to all who are able to push tens of models per month.

August has not been a kind month, so not a huge vow. I, gaurdian31, continue the 12 Months of Hobby Challenge, and for the month of August pledge to complete 1 teleport homer by the month's end.

I totally understand your situation - there's something off about this August.

 

I can only say this: Good luck. I'll race you with my own 1-model vow!

Thank you very much! Yeah, finally started filling better over the weekend and painted up the teleport homer. I'll be using it for my Templar Assault Terminators that I will eventually get painted. Good luck on the tech marine! I had a bit of an easier model to paint.

I hear that! Better good at the right time than perfect too late. It's why some of my Marines have separate color trim and others don't. It's all about keeping that forward energy. 

 

My vow for August is a good example of that. I painted the 10 Infernus in batches of 5. First batch I was not as energized, so no trim. Second batch I had more energy so they got trim.

Good one.

 

I have been struck by an enormous amount of real-life stuff this week which leads me to be a bit concerned about my success. Especially since I'm discovring that the model has a fair bit of details that I've glossed over. Thanks!

 August

 

I, Reclusiarch Jolemai , embark on the 12 Months of Hobby Challenge, and for the month of August, pledge to complete: 1x Void Shield Generator by month's end.

To do:

  • Reinforce containment structure
  • Paint

 

I’ve been a bit absent of late but I have a weekend to myself and a lot of meetings I don’t need to talk in, so I, Blissful Brushes, vow to complete these two marines by the end of August:

I knew summer wasn't the best time for me to paint, but I didn't expect such failure! 

Real life has been packed with good and less good stuff, I couldn't find time and/or energy to achieve anything. I feel like I'm betraying this glorious community. 

No vow for July, No vow for August either, (ooooh double shame!)

This is what resulted of the few times I sat long enough to actually pick up a brush. I guess this count as half a model for each of the last two months. I hope I'll do better in september...

Finally found the time to finish off my "Primarisized" Brother Bethor Chapter Ancient Conversion, and with that, August is complete,

I'm not going to be able to put the amount of time I need to work on Gulliman this month, so he will be a holdover for next month. Still working on the other SM though, they should be done, hopefully.
