So after many hours of looking at everybody else’s work on this great site. Here goes my first attempt at showing you guys some of my painting attempts…
I like many of you have piles of unpainted mini’s and i’m always wondering what army to do next…
Well i have always fancied a go at a Chaos Dwarf army and with Forge World’s beautiful models a thought was born…
But to avoid just another undercoated army, I’ve chosen to set myself…'THE PLEDGE’
This will consist of the following rules…
I’m not allowed to buy or prepare another model until the previous one is complete.
After completion of each model/unit i must list the item on a well known auction site for 30 days at a ‘Buy it now’ price.
Fingers crossed they do not sell straight away, but if they do at least it will help fund an otherwise very expensive army…
I love how the model turned out, as raw as that paint stlyle of yours may look, I like it a lot. On the other hand, I haven’t understood that ‘pledge’ thingie… Are you creating a CD army or are you painting CDs to sell?
Isn’t it economically unsound to order the army piecemeal? I would always see to minimize postage costs. Anyhow, that painting is fine enough, and I like the scheme.
Well i wish you luck on your pledge Sweetie
if you fail you could always become a slayer :)

Sorry did not intend to confuse. I am aiming to create a CD army. Just that if i sell a few models along the way to fund the army then all well and good!
Good idea and I hope you'll be able to keep to your 'pledge', not like me and all of my news year's resolutions

I hope so to, thought posting about it would only help when i start to stray off track....
I too am confused by what you are trying to do with your pledge. Very nice start with the smith though.

Thanks, i know it sounds daft to sell what is painted, so how will i ever have an army?? But it is only up for sale for a limited time and not a traditional auction as it's a 'Buy it now' price. So no offers, no getting it at 99p. Just plain old, you want it, then pay up! I cannot imagine they will sell everytime, but say they did i think once the potential army was paid for i would stop offering them up. Hope that clears up some of the grey areas.

Thanks, that thought also crossed my mind when starting this. But Forge World postage is always 12% of what you buy. so that rules out buying in bulk as it saves me nothing.
really good idea to put them high on the rocks because i always have problems with these models fitting into a fireglaive unit. Propably you should keep that system if you plan to buy the FW fireglaive guys. If you put them on different levels they will fit better together i guess.
