Am I allowed to start this or does it gotta be a Mod?



Painting-
Finish up my Circle Orboros Tharn Ravagers

I have to finish my 10 SM Bikes which have been primed for the last 3 months. Also, finish magnetizing my Devastator/Tactical Squad and Commander. After which will be primed and painted.

I will not touch my Tau Army until my White Scars Army is complete and painted.

EDIT: I vow to stop buying figures (until i finish painting all) so I can save up for my PACK432 Battlefoam bag!

Start and finish at least 15 Zork boys

Its cool! I started it last month and a Mod moved it into the right spot.

My July vows. Hmm, lets see. Every month I just keep veering off target of my vows to fulfill my Army List requirements for games. How can I fulfill both?

I vow...

Not to start any new modeling
Work on my boyz using all of the great suggestions on my Ork Skin thread until I find one I like.
Finish BW#1 suspension
Finish BW#2 assembly
Finish Trukk #1, #2 and #3 assembly
Finish last two Nobz assembly
Alternate between painting Boyz and Vehicles.

GET MY PAINTING SUPPLIES AND GET TO WORK! =P

I have to finish painting my lootas and burnas
and then i gotta buy some magnets and prepare for planetstrike

oi so much =P

I'll join the vows train...

1) Base coat 2 terminator squads. Completed 20 July
2) Wash one terminator squad. Completed 27 July
3) Pretend my son being a month older gives me more painting time.

Let's set a low goal for the first month - although for June I base coated 3 termies and washed+drybrushed 1 so this is a nice delta anyway.

27 July
Extra work done: wash second squad of terminators

Last month was great success!

Now for this month:

1) Paint Veteran Squad
2) Buy, build and paint Chimera
3) Buy, convert, build and base Company Command

Wrap up the loose ends of the Skull Pass box and start the AoBR box.

I hope this month I will make my goal.

Assemble and Paint 3 Drop Pods (blah)
Convert and paint Radical inquisitor
Convert and paint 12 henchmen
Paint 3 deamonhost

Finish one of my two squiggoths.

Get my IG modeled for A'rd boys.

paint aforementioned IG army.

Or- change mind on IG Ard boys- and update ork army(ie like 90 shoota boys)

Get a job. so i can survive this hobby.

-Finish up my Imperial Guards Tournament army (only 4 more heavy weapons, 3 russ tanks, and 6 basic infantry men left )

-Build and Convert my mounted IG command squad

-Finish up painting my 2nd deathwing terminator squad, build the last box of terminators sitting in my closet. And with that finally done get in a few more games with my deathwing army.

Lessee...
1) Paint up my 17 space ork boyz and 3 Deffkoptas (plus some kunversun work)
2) Finish Converting+Painting 8 Gargoyles.
3) Paint my unit of saurus Cavalry

I put my completion date in... two weeks.

Lets see how these Vows work,

I am running a Planetstrike on the last saturday of this month, by that time I will have painted....

1000pts of Imperial Fists (What I have done so far is... a Chaplain and full ten man tactical squad), have yet to work out an army list, but will involve another tactical squad, Deathwatch ("counts as" Sternguard Veterans) and a scratch built Thunderfire cannon.

Additional Defenses for the Planetstrike games;
I have three Space Crusade Tarancula guns (Twin Linked lascannons) which need to be mounted on some sort of defenses, in some sort of bunkers.

EDIT - Oh, and a Warmachine Cygar starter box before the 18th

Vows: Finish painting my Black Reach captain and Pi Squad.

Possible: Paint my new Predator.

Assemble 50% of my guardsmen, finish my Colossus, paint up at least a few figures and prime the tanks!

Start and finish 90 Ork Boyz via assembly line style.

Figure out how I am going to strip last months vows off of most of my models is priority .

My demon project was delayed beyond my control, so that is a part of this months vows as well.

After getting the beasty close to done, I want to see if I can re-paint at least one squad in a Biel-tan scheme.

BY THE END OF THIS MONTH, I VOW TO HAVE PAINTED TWO ORK TRUKKS AND ALL OF MY NOBZ/MEGANOBZ!

that leaves only... 60+ boyz left to paint. bawwww.

Pics of completedness:

July Vows:
