Nice, that series of marine characters has always been a favourite of mine.

So good!
I know it’ll be a pain to paint but I really like the scheme. I was a fan of the Howling Griffons scheme but yours is less gaudy!
Will you cross the Rubicon and field some Primaris? (Think you should haha!)

Thanks guys, and yeah jud that's the eventual plan. Their fluff was always that a huge chunk of the chapter was either killed or followed the chief Liberian who got too into a Tzeentch book. That's what caused the whole Tracian civil war that all my armies feed into. So with a solid chunk of the chapter already destroyed (I think I had them at like 4ish companies strength fluffwise back in the day) theynare ripe for some primaris reinforcement.

Welp finally (almost) finished celestine and her friends and with it the sisters for now. Celestines wings need cleaned up and they are a nightmare. When he primed them, it must have been humid. They came out not only a bit gritty, but he also over sprayed so they are so far from a flat surface and no matter what I tried I cant make them look clean. One more attempt probably then he gets what he gets (I'm doing this for free haha). Overall not my best work. picture hosting sites

It still looks great, dude. Myr "Original" Celestine was done up in almost the same scheme, but you've done it so much better than I did!

Yeah, don’t beat yourself up mate. Looks good.
Really glad you’re gonna add some Primaris into the mix.
Which unit do you think you’ll start with?

I mean the body and scrolls I have no problem with really, generic for the army but otherwise fine. It's just those damn wings they wont get smooth haha. Why couldn't she have feathers. I can do feathers, and feathers arnt ruined if the primer is off a bit. Yeah, don’t beat yourself up mate. Looks good. Really glad you’re gonna add some Primaris into the mix. Which unit do you think you’ll start with? I'm not sure, I dont really know them all all that well haha. Intercessors are the "tactical squad" right? So probably them.

Haha! Yes Intercessors are the main battle line unit for Primaris!
If you can stretch to it, I recommend a Redemptor Dread. They’re beautiful and murderous on the table.

Haha! Was a great Primaris even if it was Arsenal based!
Loving the new Disciples colour scheme. The head really works too.
You’ve done a good job on removing the Templar iconography, you wouldn’t know.
Great idea on the personal heraldry it’s what Astartes should be )every man a hero!)
Hopefully we won’t have to wait 5 months for the next one!!

Girlfriend works for a marketing firm and one of her accounts is Expedia so she gets to meet obiwan himself and told me I should paint model for him haha Edit:I guess he got covid and didnt go to the event...

Yeah me too, him and boba/all the clones were my two favorites growing up (born in 92 so the prequels were my gateway). They did boba dirty in his show so I really hope they dont this time

Cheers man, yeah I've found 54mm models make cool gifts for the history lover/spike tv enthusiast in your life. Well taking advantage of the dying from covid to actually paint so I finished up a 20 man block of greatswords I started 4ish years ago. So now that's done. Edit: the first rank was 95% done already and have been in pictures here before so yeah, only a half achievement

They’re looking great! All progress is good progress!
I really miss square bases.
I’m hoping they’ll bring back the Old World as I’m dying to do a Slaves to Darkness force.
What’s next on your painting table?

What’s next on your painting table? Cheers, weirdly I went on ebay and found myself ordering 40 6th edition empire.state troopers. I never go on ebay and it's been forever since I've touched empire. Then my cat ate one the I had just painted so sadly the hobby bug is gone temporarily. Adulthood man

The aesthetic just speaks to me and livery and colors on massed blocks of infantry and knights is exactly why I got into warhammer originally. An inquisitor and henchmen I'm working on. Thinking about adding a familiar or something else to him. He feels...lacking

Loving them so far!
You can’t go wrong with a Cherub I’d say!
Failing that maybe a servo skull?

I need to steal one from my buddies sisters army, I had the same thought on both counts but my bitz box is lacking unfortunately. The base model is from warmachine apparently and the only reason I got it was I was being responsible at the Warhammer Citadel with all of the forgeworld on the walls and only got the gift I was there for for my cousin. So naturally to reward myself I stopped at my independent store on the way home and saw these two guys in a pack on sale for $13 and figured he looked the part of an inquisitor with a little conversion.
