Hello!
I remember we used to have these a couple years ago. I thought they were real neat to help with motivation for projects or other work.
Pretty much we make a vow of something we are going to work on for the month.
Example: 'I vow to paint up 2 Vespid Stingwings by the end of this month' or 'I vow to convert the arms of my Carnifex by the end of this month'
We can give status from time to time... or not. You can go beyond your vow too. And nothing will happen to you if you don't live up to your vow... we just brand your genitals... or not.
Have fun!
My vow:
I vow to have my Malifaux Viktorias Box set models pinned and primed by the end of June. For Reals. *Hides genitals*

I vow to complete 5 Dakka user conversion requests in June.
Further, I will paint to TTQ a box of models that are not Tyranids, as an exercise in empathy.

Another update! Vow done!
http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/369900.page#2885243
I think I really underestimated my enthusiasm for the project... I'm going to do another vow.
I vow to have at least one layer of paint on the models. (that should be more challenging)
EDIT:
original vow only sort of done. I vowed to finish the pinning. well I cut and fit the pins but I didn't exactly stick them on yet. so I don't know if it counts.

I've done 2 of my 5 requests, and have assembled some Eldar rangers, minus the heads. Resisting the urge to put different marine helmets and paint them as Power Rangers.

Also, how does one apply to be a member of the Ultramodrines? Are harsh trials involved, ones that would test my faith as a wargamer and resolve as a geek?
