Glad you're up and feeling better! Where'd the parts for the bike conversion come from?

I purchased the base for some hover bikes, stripped off the hover parts, mildly upscaled, then did a bunch of sawing and repositioning on the bike and the marine legs for a more sporty riding position. I’ll be doing some sculpting work to create a “plugged in” look so sword fighting on a bike feels more doable.

result in progress (since I’m literally painting it now):

That's a very stylish-looking Inquisitor model

Was fun to paint too!

Working on my sisters today

[Stolid Fox]

Calling it a night. 

[Brother Argent]

Loving those clear and bright colours Stolid.  Not often you see Sisters done that way.  Keep up the good work.

[Grotsmasha]

I've commission painted other people Sisters, but am really looking forward to getting some for myself through Imperium. Yours look great and it's getting me even more impatient for my own

[Stolid Fox]

Starting to get the bases for the sisters printed out!

[Stolid Fox]

Today I spent getting the non-silver metallics sketched in and the highlights done on a few major pieces.

[Stolid Fox]

Not a ton of progress today but printed a bunch more bases and got some of the sub pieces put on

[Stolid Fox]

once again not a ton of time painting the last few days but some progress. 

[Firedrake Cordova]

Looks like they're coming along nicely

A fellow Pro Acryl appreciator I see! Those bases are very impressive, looking forward to seeing how they look painted up.

ProAcryl and AK have become my foundation paints; though I do call in some support bits from Vallejo and citadel from time to time. Oh and scale75 metallics along with Vallejo metal color are sublime.

I think I’m down to packs and then faces, though a detail may have slipped through so I’ll be attentive as I close in on saying done. 

[Valkia the Bloody]

I definitely love the colour on these!

The pink really pops.

[Stolid Fox]

Packs done and now to the faces

[Stolid Fox]

Feeling pretty good about finishing my pledge

[Boc]

The blue on the robes of the one on the far right came out really well. Fine dark line between the cloak and the trim helps the shoulders really stand out

 

And the pledge isn't finished, gotta put the heads on lol!

[Stolid Fox]

Said I was feeling good about it, not that it was finished! Still have a few days

[Stolid Fox]

Going to give the faces and hair a bit more attention but hit a point I’m happy. Might try to finish the last few bases if I can too; though I’m still waiting for gw to restock their midsize ones since some went missing on me.

Quick wash will make those faces pop really easily just like the shoulder pads do. Well done!

Oh I did the shoulders by hand and will be doing the faces by hand :P

Working on getting my sisters all based
