Emperor's Word Space Marines - Part 2

Recommended Posts

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:

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:

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.

I plan to update this log as often as I can which will hopefully be a couple times a week.

 

Until then,

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:

The sergeant now has a power sword and grav pistol.

Apart 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.

Also 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.
