scottshoemaker Posted January 3, 2017 Report Posted January 3, 2017 In an effort to combat the scourge that is Grey Plastic we shall band together and contribute to the Ordo Fanaticus 2017 Hobby Progress Challenge! Let's keep this simple shall we? Each month reply to this thread with your stated miniature hobby painting commitment. The goal is a painted unit per month. Ex: "I will assemble and paint this box of Space Marines" "I will paint this assembled Chariot I bought off eBay" Include a dated picture. When you have completed said stated goal, post a dated picture of the completed commitment, quoting the original post. If you finish early, start another project, but be warned, the deadline for the project is the end of the month in which it is started. Not 30 days from posting. Those members that have completed their stated monthly goal will be placed in a raffle, from which I will draw a winner. I will send the winner a prize. At the end of the year the member that has completed the most goals win a better prize. In the case of a tie the members will be placed in a raffle, from which I will draw a winner. Remember to quote your original post so progress for the month may be easily verified. Failure to do so will DISQUALIFY the entry. Valid projects: 10+ infantry figures 3+ medium sized models (siege machines, killa kans, ogres, etc) 1+ large model (Vehicle, big monster, etc) Don't be a tool and post stuff you've already done. This is on the honor system. Go! Challenge begins now! 6
Purajh Posted January 3, 2017 Report Posted January 3, 2017 What about if we hire a commission painter to do the work for us? 3
JMGraham Posted January 4, 2017 Report Posted January 4, 2017 I'm not yet certain about my OFCC plans, or which game system they'll include. So, while I might not chime in until later, I'll have stuff to paint regardless of what system I end up playing (save for Infinity - I have just about everything I could need painted up there). I'll join in on this, just in several months! I have Kublacon to prepare for in the meantime. 1
scottshoemaker Posted January 4, 2017 Author Report Posted January 4, 2017 This is independent of OFCC, so what exactly you paint each month is up to you!
Andrewgeddon Posted January 4, 2017 Report Posted January 4, 2017 Sweet! I started up a progress "plog" over on the Fantasy section, but having a monthly goal will help keep me on track to get my army ready for OFCC (or at least that's the hope, heh). This month, I will finish / paint this unit of Grail Knights (dated 1/3/17): 1
PourSpelur Posted January 4, 2017 Report Posted January 4, 2017 Challenge accepted! During this January I will; Build and paint 2 converted, counts-as Techmarines. Build and paint 1 converted, counts-as Thunderfire cannon. 2
spagunk Posted January 4, 2017 Report Posted January 4, 2017 So I take it that 40k terminators count as infantry and thus you need 10 of em?
dalmer Posted January 4, 2017 Report Posted January 4, 2017 For the month of January 2017 I will paint a 4-speeder squadron of Ravenwing Tornados
scottshoemaker Posted January 4, 2017 Author Report Posted January 4, 2017 So I take it that 40k terminators count as infantry and thus you need 10 of em? Or 5 of something else, or a small terrain piece, or a small vehicle...
generalripphook Posted January 4, 2017 Report Posted January 4, 2017 During January I will finish painting 40 guardsmen with various equipment. I'll post a picture of them when I get back to Montana. 1
Kremmet Posted January 5, 2017 Report Posted January 5, 2017 I assume a little pre-work that was done this month isn't too much (meaning a start to the color and priming)? If not, I have plenty of Infinity I can do this month: 3xUnidrons 2xImetrons 2xIkadrons 2xCA REMs 1xSphinx That gives me seven infantry, two larger models, and a TAG to work on so a little from everything! 1
spagunk Posted January 6, 2017 Report Posted January 6, 2017 Time to throw my hat in I guess. I commit to painting one (1) squad of Blood Angel Assault Terminators: Yes, those are FW pads (had to buy them since apparently no one sells them for less than a kidney). Also the top row are old 3rd edition termies. 4
generalripphook Posted January 22, 2017 Report Posted January 22, 2017 I am back in Montana. Here's those guardsmen.
dalmer Posted January 22, 2017 Report Posted January 22, 2017 Posted 04 January 2017 - 07:39 AM For the month of January 2017 I will paint a 4-speeder squadron of Ravenwing Tornados Great job Eli, hope Montana's treating you well! I completed my monthly painting vow (?) on 01-21-2017. Crappy pictures incoming if I can figure it out. 4
scottshoemaker Posted January 24, 2017 Author Report Posted January 24, 2017 What? Just one completed vow!? C'mon people!
Kremmet Posted January 25, 2017 Report Posted January 25, 2017 I just have one last model to finish up here and I'll be ready to post. Also, secret bonus nonsense!
spagunk Posted January 25, 2017 Report Posted January 25, 2017 What? Just one completed vow!? C'mon people! I am either one really long paint session or several short ones before being completed. Bases and shoulder pads need to be done and I have detail work on two termies to finish. Pending unforeseen circumstances, I should be done this weekend.
generalripphook Posted January 25, 2017 Report Posted January 25, 2017 What? Just one completed vow!? C'mon people! I am nearly done as well!
PourSpelur Posted January 26, 2017 Report Posted January 26, 2017 I didn't get to the Techmarines but my Thunderfire will be done and awesome by Sunday.
generalripphook Posted January 28, 2017 Report Posted January 28, 2017 Got them done. Still have many many more models to paint waiting them 3
Kremmet Posted January 29, 2017 Report Posted January 29, 2017 Finished up my pieces! Well, they're tabletop at least. Still need some work.... 8
generalripphook Posted January 30, 2017 Report Posted January 30, 2017 Yeah I've been slowly adding more details that I keep noticing after going over them all.
Kremmet Posted January 30, 2017 Report Posted January 30, 2017 I just haven't taken the time to do the freehand/weathering yet. I'll get to it on the next pass.
spagunk Posted January 30, 2017 Report Posted January 30, 2017 Managed to get my painting done last night 7 minutes before having to leave for work. Will have them put together and pictured sometime today!
PourSpelur Posted January 31, 2017 Report Posted January 31, 2017 Sliding in at the last minute! Only able to convert and paint a Thunderfire but I'm really happy with both the modeling and paint. Of course there's room for touch ups but that's another day. Introducing: Hella Stella Jones. Was shooting for less Grimdark gothic and more Cyberpunk. 4
