Khrangar Posted September 12, 2013 Share Posted September 12, 2013 Greetings once again. With the release of Codex Space Marines 6th Edition, I readily returned to the Space Marines I had begun in 5th Edition. The new codex also provided me with a wealth of inspiration and a host of new shinies to play with. In the previous edition, my army totaled around 5000 points, but with the removal of a couple units (Deathwatch Sternguard squads and their Rhinos), along with some points decreases, the army now stands at around 4300 points. Here is the painted portion of the army: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v334/Khrangar/Emperors%20Word/ewarmy1.jpg I hope to continue to chronicle the painting I do for the Emperor's Word as they honour their father Dorn in the games to come. To start I have a modest amount of new items: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v334/Khrangar/Emperors%20Word/ewnew1_zps35c066ce.jpg As well as the following to complete for them: Vindicator Land Raider Crusader Drop Pod Whirlwind Predator Rhinos x4 Scouts x10 I'm mostly finished a Storm Raven I repurposed from my Grey Knights and hope to get that done as well as Jungor Mk2 (Kantor counts-as) done over the weekend. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v334/Khrangar/Emperors%20Word/ewnew2_zpsc84ed62f.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v334/Khrangar/Emperors%20Word/ewnew3_zps99f9e589.jpg I plan to update this log as often as I can which will hopefully be a couple times a week. Until then, Khrangar Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/280034-emperors-word-space-marines-part-2/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

Khrangar Posted September 18, 2013 Author Share Posted September 18, 2013 I've been redoing my Vanguard recently to be more in line with what I wanted them to look like originally and to reduce the weight of the model exponentially.Old Sergeant (technically Shrike, but no longer) vs New Sergeant:http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v334/Khrangar/Emperors%20Word/ew6_zps4daa1606.jpghttp://img.photobucket.com/albums/v334/Khrangar/Emperors%20Word/ewnew4_zps242aeb0f.jpgThe sergeant now has a power sword and grav pistol.Old Vanguard vs New Vanguard:http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v334/Khrangar/Emperors%20Word/ew5_zpse4afb14a.jpghttp://img.photobucket.com/albums/v334/Khrangar/Emperors%20Word/ewnew5_zpsf3520276.jpgApart from picture quality I like the new squads a lot more. The old Raptor jump packs were far to heavy for them and they tended to fall over quite a bit, but with the new Sanguinary Guard jump packs, I hope this won't happen. I also got the Sternguard built over the last few days. Most of the handless ones will have the bolters while 2 will have combi grav.http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v334/Khrangar/Emperors%20Word/sew2_zps933ca5ab.jpgAlso got work done on a combi weapon sergeant. Figure he'll be either a tac sergeant or a dev one. I'm quite pleased with how he came out.http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v334/Khrangar/Emperors%20Word/sew1_zpsf6097361.jpgKhrangar Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/280034-emperors-word-space-marines-part-2/#findComment-3467221 Share on other sites More sharing options...
