Judgethunder Posted July 31, 2015 Share Posted July 31, 2015 Hello Battle Brothers!I've begun the hobby just recently and have decided to play a custom chapter based on everyone's favorite jolly and cooperative video game knight, Solaire of Astora.Now to mix things up I'm going to keep my chapter master as Solaire as possible, however the Marines fighting under him are going to be from an Aztec/Mayan inspired jungle death world he was placed in charge of starting a chapter on during an unknown founding. They are savage, brutal, and unrelenting fighters. However, at the same time they care greatly for mankind in the galaxy and on their home world and endeavour to assist other chapters/imperial Guard whenever they can and engage in jolly cooperation. This mixture of Solaire's naive optimism in the face of darkness and despair thrown in with mesoamerican warrior culture should make for an interesting chapter indeed! There will be a proper write up of their lore and Solaire journey from the continent of Lordran to the greater galaxy of the 41st millennium in due time. I shared my first marine on Reddit and imgur, but I won't be doing that again until I have a decent force to show off. (And definetly not without having Chapter Master Solaire finished!) So I'll use this forums to share my work and take C&C.Be kind please! I'm new to the hobby and these are my very first space marines! (AND PAINTING THINGS WHITE IS HARD >.<) FOR THE EMPEROR!

The_Chaplain Posted July 31, 2015 Share Posted July 31, 2015 Off to a great start. I can't wait to see your chapter master Solaire mini-- hopefully he will be gloriously incandescent!

Judgethunder Posted August 1, 2015 Author Share Posted August 1, 2015 In case people were curious as to what they looked like before I started layering on Ulthan Grey and White Scar White along with their various highlights. http://i.imgur.com/l8pNgBf.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/311678-the-sun-brothers-chapter-t-2222016/#findComment-4135047 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why, the old commander set, of course!! just sub in some assault marine legs and ditch the cape, then slap on the vanguard vets' shield and a power sword, and it's all good!

That Guy Matt Posted August 9, 2015 Share Posted August 9, 2015 I don't get the reference because I never really got into Dark Souls. I'm still interested though, he sounds like quite a character.

Dosjetka Posted September 14, 2015 Share Posted September 14, 2015 PRAISE THE SUN! \o/ You might want to shake your spray can for a bit more, or find another place to undercoat you models. The white seems very grainy on some of your models.

The white seems very grainy on some of your models. It was a couple of my sergeants. I prime somehwere else now, I was very fortunate that the grain wasn't as bad as it could have been.

MikhalLeNoir Posted February 23, 2016 Share Posted February 23, 2016 Praise the sun!!! Looks good. Like the contrast between the white and the silver head on captain. But I am not sure about the brown robes.
