Having just gotten back on BnC after a long hiatus, this thread has reminded me why this is such an ace forum. Fantastic models, and am really loving all the fluff, especially the musings on Chaos and the warp, and the chicken or the egg problem in regards to the origins of the gods. Plus you've really nailed the savage and zealous feeling of the Word Bearers. Can't wait for more, and to read more heretical musings on the warp.

“Look not upon the Gods, hear not their honeyed words, and speak not unto them in prayer or worship.” -The Three Edicts of Uridimmu, Lord Executor of the Sāqīqu dynasty, Slayer of the Seven Divine Kings, God-Killer, He who has walked in the Space Betwixt, Void Touched, Arch Misotheist, and he of a thousand thousand titles. “Welcome to the ten thousand Satraps, Imperial! The Sāqīqu dynasty extends its warm welcome, asking that you only obey the edicts as laid down by Uridimmu…” -Automated message, broadcast along the border system of the Satrapies of Uridimmu. Broadcast in Low and High Gothic, Anglic, Frankish and Binary. [iNLOAD ACCESS GRANTED] ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ “You prattle on about your Gods, those bloated four cancers that squat in the cursed flows of the Immaterium. So determined to illuminate the rest of your squabbling species with this so-called Truth. You and your mewling Gene-Father disgust me Word Bearer, I have crushed civilizations far more mighty than yours, swam in the blood of whole species more worthy of my respect. Uridimmu is coming, and he shall hurl you and that pontificating Primarch back into the abyss.” -Belus, The King who has No Equals in all the Lands, Annihilator of Tyrants, the Death that came to Xanadu, Grand Satrap of the Lagash Cluster and the Numinous Reefs. Addressing Xanu Corraith, Dark Acolyte of the Word Bearers on the despoiled shrine world of St Runill’s Repose. Belus, Grand Satrap and close confidant of Uridimmu, commander of the Burnished Ten thousand. ‘Out of the dark did I hear the march of a great number of armoured feet, and thus the Burnished Ten thousand did appear. Their deathly visages hidden, and in their cold red eyes I saw only the promise of death.’ Canticles of Null, repressed Heretical Work. ‘The Daīrīu, the mailed fist of Uridimmu’s legions, and a backbone of a thousand thousand conquests in his name..” -Beyond the Rim: Tales from the Edgeworlds, Memoirs of Maria Von Syle, Rogue Trader. ‘Seven times did the accursed heads of the Hydra attempt to establish themselves in Uridimmu’s demesne, fleeing their failed treachery, and seven times did the Daīrīu of the Burnished Legion hurl them back.’ Triumphs of the Sāqīqu, Apocryphal work originating from the Endworlds, estimated to be written M32.64. ‘Every kilometer along the Royal Highway is marked with a burnt and scarred suit of once shimmering blue power armour, impaled upon adamantium spines. Their armour ranges from ancient Crusader pattern plate, all the way to the sleek lines of Maximus plate. Each suit representing a Legionnaire of the accursed XX, slain as they fled into the Endworlds to escape the Scouring. Belûs informs me that these grim milestones stretch for almost a thousand kilometers, and though I do not weep for these traitors, the thought of the equivalent of an entire Chapter so dismissively annihilated, chills my blood.’ -Beyond the Rim: Tales from the Edgeworlds, Memoirs of Maria Von Syle, Rogue Trader. ‘Those that have burnt the Temples to Ash’- The Seventeenth Pirru of Daīrīu, members of the Burnished Ten Thousand, led by a Guzalû Oh wow, it's been a while but I am back now, and have hopped on the 9th edition Necron train, with a dynasty that is a little more cosmic horror and mesopotamian, than space-egyptians. I’m also collaborating with Apologist and co in his fantastic Endworlds project, so expect to see some more crossovers soon….and of course welcome to the Ten thousand Satrapies….

Those flames are looking great, plus those Reavers are really nicely posed. Looking forward to seeing them completed :D .

Fantastic pose on the Titan, love the sense of dynamism it conveys!! I initially had my doubts about the jaw but its definitely growing on me, and I look forward to seeing it painted!

These knights are gorgeous! How are they posing wise? (Is it easy to pose them in dynamic configurations?)

Your destroyers and moritat look ace! Keep up the great work, and its nice to see another Heresy True Scaler round here.

You have really worked some magic on those terminators! Keep up the great work.

The sons of horus look absolutely brutal! The contemptor dreadnought is a favourite of mine,it really conveys a sense of a howling war-machine descending on the enemy!

Stunning!

Love your True-scale, they really capture the brutal and imposing nature of an astartes!

Fantastic work, he really looks like he means business! Yet again you have managed to seamlessly blend and tie all his parts together into an excellent coherent whole.

Loving the Blight Drone Swarm/flock (I have no idea what a group of Blight drones should be called :D). The one with a little bit of brain matter oozing out looks particularly gross in a great way. Excited to see what you are painting up next!

Fantastic looking Iron Warriors! Love the sense of purpose each one seems to be imbued with.

Your Greenstuff skills are fantastic as usual! The Death Guard conversion is very era appropriate and looks great!

Those Skitarii are looking ace! I really love the colour scheme, which conveys a sort of clean uneasiness about them, they lack the bombast and brass of Mars, and it makes them feel like they were created for much more sinister means.
