Nice initiative The Yak!

This seems like the perfect motivation to get some more work done on my Minotaurs. biggrin.png

This is what I've got finished (or semi-finished) so far, also got another Tactical Squad, a Vanguard Squad and a Stormraven in the pipeline.

I pledge to paint Chapter Master Asterion Moloc, High Chaplain Ivanus Enkomi, A Landraider and a Rhino to add to my collection.

Decided to give my Stormraven a slightly different appearance by painting the inside of the cockpit window with some Blood for the Blood God.

Think it looks a bit more grim this way.

"When we boarded Sentinel-Sigma It was the duty, no, it was the honour of Clan Lachesis to take the Starboard docks. Large enough to hold an entire hive-city within its cavernous walls it was never going to be the breachers or the assault squads who carried the day. No. We docked our strike cruiser and I deployed our tanks out of our forward launch bay directly into the dockyard and drove them straight down the enemy’s throat. We burned twelve squadrons of torpedo bombers before they could launch, and crippled a Gladius-Class Frigate by destroying her fuel lines with concentrated demolisher fire. In the decades since Badab I have had few causes for celebration as worthy the day I killed a Starship with a tank.” –Captain Vaughn of Clan Lachesis’ Reserve Company.

I Thought'd I'd get started with the latest addition to my SoM, the Land Raider Wrath of Solex commanded by Captain Vaughn. For those wondering why the tank is largely metallic and not black or green, the Sons of Medusa have 3 Clans. Mageara are the classic green and white while Atropos (the poster children) have Black as their secondary colour. I collect Clan Lachesis who are noted as having "silver steel trim" which I think just looks so nice.

 

Here are some more pics of my tanks as well as Captain Vaugh on foot as I decided to magnetise his torso so I could use him as a regular captain when I feel like it. The rest I'll post up later, getting more into my army's background and my Objective when I do.

"Forgebreaker" much like her namesake was lost to the Iron Hands during the battle of Istvaan. Looted by the traitors and pressed into service, the Typhon would serve first the Sons of Horus and later the Black Legion before being recaptured during the third battle of Magrak Secundus in 792.M40. After years of Machine Excorcism, reconsecration and reconstruction it's first deployment in the emerald green of the Sons of Medusa would be during the battle of Galen VI.

The rest of my armour that isn't a razorback. I recently converted one of my vindicators which seldom saw use into a laser-destroyer equipped Tank Hunter variant which has proved most excellent.

Hi guys, just finished some Salamanders - here's the progress on my Devastator squad!  Also a librarian. Might have a crack at some Lamenters in July, to give me a rest from green (and also so I don't have to double post stuff :P )

Looks good Uprising, have you converted some sort of fire coming out of his right hand?

 

Those are three scarabs, I am terrible at pic taking(my least favor part of the hobby).  Paint wise, very little blue do to my dislike of the color.
