Lord-Commander Macarian Posted May 29, 2015 Share Posted May 29, 2015 Hello Brothers, With the glorious opening of a Warhammer store in my area I am making the return to the ranks of the Adeptus Astartes. It's been a long hiatus of nearly 10 years and I am very excited. Cue Thomas Bergersen - Birth of a Hero So excited, in fact, I went on Ebay hunting for a cheap starter army. Luckily, I was not to be disappointed with these very cool retro models. Picked them up and they should arrive in the coming two weeks. All together, with upgrades, they make a 750 points list on the dot! On to the models, bear in my mind these images come from Ebay, I will make new ones as soon as I get the models in my mailbox. Captain Terminators Tactical Squad #1 Tactical Squad #2 I am going to use this space to chronicle my painting of these exquisite models for everyone's enjoyment and I hope for your encouragement to keep me motivated. Thank you all for looking and I must say, it feels good to post in these halls again!

Aqui Posted May 29, 2015 Share Posted May 29, 2015 Ah, the original Mark VII and UM Captain. Those were the days! And the Terminators are still my faves, despite them being sorely limited in posing options Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/308418-retro-ultras-for-a-long-lost-lord-commander/#findComment-4063550 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord-Commander Macarian Posted June 5, 2015 Author Share Posted June 5, 2015 Hey everyone, The Captain arrived in the mail yesterday and I just finished up painting him. I still need to order a new Backpack for him but beyond that I am quite pleased with him Captain Atramentar of the Emperor's Warbringers 3rd Company, The Centurion Ultra The Emperor's Warbringers (http://warhammer40k.wikia.com/wiki/Emperor%27s_Warbringers) are the Chapter which I will use to represent this small force. I have taken some liberties with the colour sheme since I really like the Sons of Horus Colour scheme. Tonight will be their first deployment in years, wish me luck!

Lord-Commander Macarian Posted June 5, 2015 Author Share Posted June 5, 2015 Apologies for the double post, but I got all models in the mail! Strike Force Atramentar assembles! (crappy picture, I'll make better ones soon :)) Some models need more touch-ups than I thought but nothing major, really happy with them Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/308418-retro-ultras-for-a-long-lost-lord-commander/#findComment-4072753 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vel'Cona Posted June 5, 2015 Share Posted June 5, 2015 So retro. Eager to see a coat of paint on these! Will you be going for a classic scheme or something more contemporary?
