=] Call to Arms 2025 - ASTARTES STRONGHOLD [=

[Boc]

Next two down (gladiator is magnetized to be impulsor too)

 

Tank 1

 

Tank 2

[Firedrake Cordova]

I really like the weathering on the off-white part of the engine shroud

 

The glow from the light/screen on the bench is rather nice, too.

[Dr. Clock]

I, Dr. Clock, heed the Call to Arms and pledge to paint 5 Hellblasters for 5pts for the Glory of the Storm Lords and the Astartes Stronghold on or before 15th September 2025, or bear the badge of failure until year's end.

 

 

What if we made the part that's dangerous to the operator further away from the operator?

 

 

Pretty stoked for these big ol' cannon bois. They are right on the edge of unreasonable AKA perfect for 40k!

 

I found out just after my last Vow that there's an event at the end of August I want to bring Storm Lords to, and I couldn't resist the opportunity to clear out the last 5 marines from Leviathan and get my OG 8th launch squad of 5 with Lt to a solid 10.

 

Cheers,

 

The Good Doctor.

@Boc Those Primaris tanks look great! I think the color palette really helps the sculpts come off as more serious, whereas the boxart Ultramarines blue they look like toys

I'm busy over the weekend so here's an early Sunday update:

 

 

Honestly much happier with them as hellblasters than stock Infernus. I'd forgotten how quick Primaris paint up through sheer chonk and lack of 'weird' textures. Might still fiddle with them a few hours next week but I'm advancing to my Imperium vow pretty soon. Likely a couple weeks before they're based... So I'll post in here again when they're done!

 

Cheers,

 

The Good Doctor.

And last 2 tanks complete, vow complete. 

 

Repulsor

 

Gladiator 

 

All models

[Brother Christopher]

I, Brother Christopher, heed the Call to Arms and pledge to paint 6 jump pack marines and 1 Marshal in Terminator Armour, for 15 pts for the Glory of the Black Templars and the Astartes Stronghold on or before September 15th, or bear the badge of failure until year's end.

@Dr. Clock I love the conversion you did. That's a very cool modification and a striking paint scheme.

[Dr_Ruminahui]

Reporting Page updated - please review to ensure your entry is correct (subfaction, link, models vowed, point value, entry into Master of the Forge).

 

@Brother Christopher - 6x jump marines (6) and marshall in terminator armour (5) is 11 points, not 15, so I have you down for that.  Nice to see you join.

[jaxom]

An update with not the best lightning, but oh well.

I'm glad to be able to join! And I'm sorry for the mistake - I don't know where that came from - maybe a typo on the numpad or just being in the middle of work. Regardless, I feel ashamed for this silly mistake. Thanks for catching this.

[Dr_Ruminahui]

No problem - its the reason I double check all vow point totals.  You certainly aren't the first to make a small mistake in the math.

I'M HERE FOR THE BLOOD AND GUTS NOT THE MATHS

[Grotsmasha]

1 down, 1 to go,

[sitnam]

@Grotsmasha I'm a Dark Angels hater (blame Phil Kelly), but that is one handsome first born. The green is very well done

[Grotsmasha]

@sitnam It's a really different style and colours to how I currently paint my DA, and am stoked with the final result.

[Karhedron]

After blazing through my first vow, my second is taking a bit more time. Mostly due to the extra detail on the models. I can't decide whether they are Veteran Heavy Intercessors or Heavy Sternguard.  Either way, the first squad member is just about done so I figured now was a good time for a progress update.
