The Blades Are Drawn

[Brother Captain Arkley]

Arkley, everything in your army looks fantastic! You've managed some seriously awesome work through all of this. Great job, I think you should be tremendously proud of those Sons of the Lion!

 

One thing I really want to know: what is that paint holder/station there in the background of that first pic?

 

Paint Stand :) Hope that helps :)

[Brother Captain Arkley]

Some WIP for my ETL II vow, hopefully some paint on them soon :).

 

 

Knight Commander Treasach - Master of the Arsenal - Master of the 4th

 

Treasach is one of the new Masters to come into Command after the Massacre of Gaeth he has taken an Oath of Vengeance against his former brothers. He denies himself any accolades until the the last 23 traitors are dead.

 

A stubborn man he has come to blows with Master Lochlann when the former commented on his tactics during a recent war-game with the 5th Company it was only by the interruption by Tadghan that stopped the disagreement becoming fatal.

 

Tadghan could not fault Treasach the betrayal of some of his closest brothers has hit the Marine hard. But his bitterness could cause more issues later and for how long Tadghan can prevent Treasach from being stripped of command is anyone’s guess.

Knight Commander Fion - Master of Uladh - Master of the 8th

 

Uladh is the moon that orbits Connacht, it is also the home of the 8th & 10th Companies. Fion is the Master of Fortress Altair. Fion is known to be a staunch supporter of the Codex Astartes and with his talent in tactics he makes war games for the other companies to hone their skills whether its in close combat or tank tactics Fion has a plan.

Knight Commander Einhan - Grand Champion of the Hunt - Master of the 2nd (The Dullahan)

 

If Tadghan shows the stoic side of the chapter, Einhan is is opposite. He is brash, impetuous and hotheaded, it has been joked he is more like an Ork of the Evil Suns than an Astartes of the Emperor. 

 

And this is a reputation he plays into, he usually takes to battle on his custom bike, tearing head-on into the enemy chasing them down like dogs. His behaviour has been questioned by other Masters of the chapter but nobody can deny his unorthodox tactics can and do win battles. He is also the Grand Champion of the Hunt, an event where other members of the The Dullahan compete hunting down one of the rare predators of Connacht.

I am considering replacing the Picks on Einhan with Shortswords... Any opinions?

Yes Its pretty simple, Grey Knight Falchion Hand, Dark Angel Combat Blade and the top of the Halberd of Caliban.

Arkley, the new conversions look great! Hope the eyes heal up better so that you can get back to painting. I really like the combat blade, it looks awesome! Feel better soon.

Very, very nice! That's a beautiful red you have going, and the yellow and white work with it fantastically.

 

Unfortunately, it looks like the focal point of the camera was a couple of inches behind the models on everything but the Sergeant(?).

 

I really like the mace (thunder hammer?) on the Sgt, it looks great with the "usual" colors reversed.

Very sweet! :tu:

[jeremy1391]

Very find indeed Arkley. My Ulthwé army will get some inspiration from your vibrant yellows.

 

Do you have any plans for the bases?
