Grotsmasha: I seem to remember your Fire Hawks, did one have a MKIII helm? That plog was what really got me into the Badab war again a few years back. Glad to have you here Brother.

You recall correctly, I *mostly* finished a Captain and a Sternguard squad,

Oh and Yak, I'm also doing the Tyrant's Legion, so you can sign me up for that too :D

Great looking Claw there, Leviathus!

 

 

Seccesionists, hear my words. Know that though you will try, you can but falter. Know that though you will fight, you can but fall. 

Know that the sons of Guilliman have come, and know that we are not alone. We will never let the Imperium fall. 

 

Know that when you are naught but ash and bones, you have failed.

This is all i have fully painted atm. :(

 

1x Predator

1x Captain

1x Sternguard

10x Tacticals


Got alot of stuff that was half done etc etc, but ill keep my objectives small for the moment, since im involved in a painting league with another force. And i know ill get neither done if i run full pelt into both.

Also i only have a camera phone atm, which is why i got bored and went for a cool angle shot instead of a nice picture. :P


Anyway, first pledge, for the honour of the Marines Errant!

 

1 x Terminator Veteran

Thanks man, appreciate that. And I can grab some, lemme try my camera phone... Haha. Risky business.

The head is a place-holder. Haven't found one that really clicks for me yet.

edit : erghhh. My photography skills suck. They look nicer in person, honest! lol

Yak, you can remove me from the Fire Angels roster.....and put me down for every Loyalist Chapter.

 

I will be painting Legate-Inquisitor Jarndyce Frain, Ordo Hereticus, and one Space Marine from every loyal Chapter involved in the war as seconded to Frain's Legatine Guard.  Each model will be personalized by Chapter in terms of equipment and weaponry, and each will come with a fluff piece describing them and their accomplishments during the war.  The following models will be made for each Chapter (names to come later):

 

Jarndyce Frain: Witch Hunter Inquisitor

Carcharodons: Assault Marine

Exorcists: Librarian

Fire Angels: Tactical Marine

Fire Hawks: Assault Marine

Howling Griffons: Tactical Marine

Marines Errant: Tactical Marine

Minotaurs: Devastator Marine

Novamarines: Tactical Terminator

Raptors: Tactical Marine

Red Scorpions: Apothecary

Salamanders: Tactical Marine

Sons of Medusa: Techmarine

Star Phantoms: Devastator Marine

 

 

This is my objective; no time limit will be set.  Any questions?

Cool looking Astral Claw, leviathus, loving that MK IV and the bits of battle damage.

 

And as always MagicMan, your Marines Errant are awesome. Is the captain with jump pack a new addition? I dont recall having seen it before.

Leviathus, you do the Tyrant proud with that pain scheme.

 

 

 

Yak, I will also be doing Tyrant's Legion as well as the Astral Claws. But I am holding off until some of the new stuff is release as I can buy them and some 32mm bases to rebase my current models at the same time. Common sense.

 

Also bought a modeling lamp with a magnifier on it, 'cos my eyes are crap and I need to see things better rather than have the model infront of my face.

I read a lot about the Badab War when I got into the hobby in 2012. It heavily influenced my painting choices then. This is what I've got so far:

And here they are all together, a mobile strike force that protects Imperial convoys and puts out fires all over the sector:

I vow to expand the Terminator squad by at least two models by the end of June. I also vow to kitbash and paint Lieutenant Commander Anton Narvaez, commander of Marines Errant (no deadline for this vow).

@Uprising: I'd love to do some mantis warriors just half way though collecting bits for my exorcists might do one for this forum though as a consolation msn-wink.gif.

That's good. The only reason I decide to do the Mantis Warriors was because I like the scheme, and fluff.I painted a sgt when Badab first came out and he need some friends to bark orders at
