Painting Vows: June 2013 Except for the beginning of our brilliant new Master Class series, led by Hannanibal, May was a relatively quiet month within the UnderEmpire. Our May-June Painting Competition will be drawing to a close. Also, expect another Painting Challenge this month or the next. - Olorin the Ancient Reference List for Vow Values Buying 0 V.V.P.s (Vow Value Points) for buying things. It's not really doing anything, but you may put them in your vows if you wish to have a more complete "to do" list. Assembly 1 V.V.P. for each man sized model. 2 V.V.P.s for each ogre sized model on large bases, weapon teams, and cavalry (same for Tyranid warrior size models). 5 V.V.P.s for Hell Pit Abominations, Screaming Bells/Plague Furnaces, Warp Lightning Cannons, monstrous creatures, tanks, or other large-sized models. NB - Forge World models will vary a lot in size so ask me before deciding on a value for these. Painting 2 V.V.P.s for non-character man-sized models. 4 V.V.P.s for weapon teams or other man-sized models on a cavalry base. 5 V.V.P.s for characters or ogre-sized models (on large bases - same for 40K). 10 V.V.P.s for Hell Pit Abominations, Screaming Bells/Plague Furnaces, Warp Lightning Cannons, monstrous creatures, tanks, or other large-sized models. NB - Again for Forge World models, let us know what it is and we'll decide on a value. Basing 1 V.V.P.s for each model based. Conversions/Green stuff 1 V.V.P.s for a small conversion/green stuff job. 2 V.V.P.s for a large conversion/green stuff job. 4 V.V.P.s for an extremely large conversion/green stuff job.
You'll have to be truthful about what you've done. We can't investigate, so tell the truth; otherwise, you're just lying to yourself. Turning Vow Ratings into P.R.S. Points This is the number of V.V.P.s you need to accumulate to achieve each vow rank (and also the P.R.S. points achieved per vow rank achieved)
Pigmental Plus is a new category for the Painting Vows, introduced in August, 2012. Designed for painters who wish to complete exceptionally ambitious vows, it gives +1 additional P.R.S. point for every 100 points above the basic 200 V.V.P. Pigmental level. So 403 V.V.P.s would earn 14 P.R.S. points--12 P.R.S. points for the initial 200 V.V.P.s, plus another 2 P.R.S. points for the additional 203 V.V.P.s The value of a 403 V.V.P. vow would be expressed as Pigmental +2. CODE Form to Fill Out Copy and paste the form below into a reply post, and fill in what you vow to do and work out your V.V.P.s and vow rating. Copy what you've done, and paste that into your post again. The second time put [ CODE ] [ /CODE ] tags around it, so we can just copy and paste this into the initial post, without having to mutate each post individually (which takes ages). This makes life a lot easier for us when it comes to working the Painting Vows system and ratings, and will stop arguments, as you can work out exactly what rating your vows will get! Replace things in CAPS with the required information. Remove any areas you don't use. In our sample code, "x" represents an integer. Make sure you calculate the V.V.P.s and exchange the "x" in each set of brackets with the number of points you get for each item. Thus, when you begin your vows, the line will normally read
Feel free to add other areas such as Buy: if you want to.
Example Scarfester - Medium Assemble: 10 Clanrats (10 V.V.P.s) - 2 Rat Ogres (4 V.V.P.s) - Paint: 10 Clanrats (20 V.V.P.s) - Completed! 2 Rat Ogres (10 V.V.P.s) - 1 Ratling Gun (4 V.V.P.s) - Base: 10 Clanrats (10 V.V.P.s) - 2 Rat Ogres (2 V.V.P.s) - 1 Ratling Gun (1 V.V.P.s) - Total 61 V.V.P.s = 2 P.R.S. POINTS Total completed 20 V.V.P.s = 1 P.R.S. POINT
NB - Notice that there are 2 lists in this post, so that the second CODE form can be copy/pasted into the initial vows list easily by a member of the P&H team Use -
for each section you have completed!
We suggest that you keep a copy of your vows list saved on your desktop and update and save it as you go. That way you only have a small amount to update and then copy/paste each time you wish to update your vows. As I indicated at the start, May was a quiet month within the tunnels of the UnderEmpire. We had only four members who completed their May 2013 Painting Vows: CapAmr05 Ghaznub (late addition) Overlord Dror Skaven Rich The big achiever in May, yet again, was Overlord Dror, making it look easy with 312 points for a ranking of Pigmental +1. To put this in perspective, he managed to complete over 250 points more than anybody else, despite dodging a major--and extremely destructive--tornado over in Oklahoma, where he lives. Well done!

Two weeks of continuous heat ruined my May hobby time. No way I stay indoors. Yesterday it was 30 degrees Celsius in the shade, and I live way north of the polar circle. This rarely happens even during summer.

Vows updated! Git-Git, so where are you from? I had thought you were British, but even the northernmost parts of Scotland are south of the Arctic Circle. |

Norwegian. And a northern Norwegian at that. Look at the northernmost point of Sweden on a map and draw a line straight north, and you'll find me by one of those fjords.

Sigmar may have risen, but the Horned Rat has ascended as well! Clan Skab has been stepped on long enough. Rise-fight and claim-take what is ours-ours! Clan Mors will seize the opportunity and expand its hold on the Realms. Clan Rictus plans to unleash its horde of Stormvermin through the Realmgates.

Vows updated! Git-Git, I'm embarrassed to admit that my knowledge of Norway is almost entirely limited to the plays of Ibsen (bits of Kon-Tiki don't count), which I realize is analogous to someone only knowing America through the works of Mark Twain. Except of course for the fact that while Twain really did represent America as it was during his lifetime, Ibsen did most of his major work in Italy and Germany, where he lived from his 30's into his 60's; and he was writing in Danish, not in Norwegian, which apparently was more a spoken language than a written one at that point; and I've only read Ibsen's plays in translation anyway (though I have read all of them from The Pretenders onwards, which is pretty unusual for any American, even for a graduate student in theatre such as I was back in the early 1990s). Assuming that Norway has changed as much as America has over the last century, I'm completely out-of-date! NOTE: I've added Ghaznub to the initial post in the list of members who completed their May vows. Edited by Olorin the Ancient, 3rd June 2013 - 07:47 PM.
