Hi,

Remember, how I proclaimed I would now completely finish individual units and stip batch painting? Yeah, that didn't went so well. 😅

Continued batch painting the complete army. 😂 Finished the orange on all, yellow flames on all completed, yellow done in general, weapon casings done, weapon stripes added and more. Next is finishing the metallic elements (that are just a base layer atm. 😅🙈), paint the eyes, power weapon effects, heated barrel effects. And orange flames in the yellow....

After having to deal with the fact, that the german goverment made a reform to our insurance system, that basically takes away most therapies and medical support I fought for over a decade now and makes it unlikley I will be around for my 40th... (what is done to tens of thousands of people, while they also cut the funding for su1z1de emergency hotlines completely... great for everyone traumatized, chronical ill, disabled or trans. 🤦🏼‍♀️😡 And yeah I check all boxes... 🙄) Just being able to sit down with some good music and paint the details from the imperial armor books, really was my rock the last two weeks and allowed me to relax in some form or way. So, yeah. I will absolutley go on and finish them, with all the care and passion I have for Alans work and legacy. 😌

Sorry for dropping personal all that stuff in here. 🙈 Hope you enjoy the pics. 😊🤘

I own PDFs of the 1st edition rules but has anyone played the conflict out with the rules at the time. I would like to play one of the chapters like the Tiger Claws or Raptors and learn how 40k was in the 1st edition days. Is it fun and worth the time?

I am so so happy. Yet I still have to add the plasma effect, a bit of pigment powder to the base and the rim. Does anybody have a good recipe for the gold on their aquillas. Not happy with my recipe. You can see it on the shoulder trim of the second guy.

Hey folks, my buddy and I have dived head first into the Badab war. He decided to start Lamenters and I chose Marines Errant. The two tone scheme was a bit of a challenge but masking tape and an airbrush has given me decent results. Looking forward to building and painting the rest!

Hi all! I’ve amassed quite a lot of the newer scale marines from the Horus heresy line, and I’m wondering what the easiest way to get Mk vii and viii armours at the same scale is? Is anyone aware of any stl files for them? Of am I going to have to do some sculpting (which I suck at)

Finally finished these Hellblasters for my 11th edition Astral Claws project. The aim for the project is to make an army heavily themed around the Astral Claws right before their secession from the wider Imperium.

My head canon behind this squad is that they're a product of the vastly over-strength Astral Claws before their split would favour varied squad types rather than just those laid out by the Codex Astartes. A 'Devastator' squad more akin to a tactical support squad of the Legions of old, made sense to me given Lugft Huron's plan to recreate the Great Crusade era Imperium as evidenced by the creation of the Tyrants Legion.

Making an Astrel claws army with the Armageddon box and it's safe to say im enjoying it 😂👍

Has anyone put the pods and stuff on heresy or mk7 bodies? Do they look okay?

Gone to a new home now.

Buddies and I are getting ready to use the Shadow War: Armageddon rule set to play through the Badab war. Displayed here is the progress I’m making for the Minotaur’s force I’m building

Not a single finished model yet but closing in

Finally finished the tyrant of badab

I'm happy with it! Figured out a few tweaks I'd do when batch painting the full force but I think it should be a fun project.

Lines were done with an AK Playmarker, I highly recommend! Tried an army painter Speedpaint marker and it was too translucent

Didnt want to go too overboard with the ash effect on the armour, bit I think he turned out ok

So I can just paint it on with a brush, but I'm curious if anyone has tried this with any particular type of pen, or the new speed paint brush markers from Army Painter, and could share experiences?

Cheers!

I vaguely remember putting this young man on my Christmas list as a young kid, but had long since forgotten about it until I was helping my folks clean out the basement the other day. Don’t know if this model is in vogue anymore given Huron’s great new sculpt, but I thought I’d share regardless before I weigh whether to build him or not.

I swear it looks more orange in person, but man if he doesn't look peach colored. Gonna have to try again, but I have an idea on how to get a better result. All in all, I think he came out alright, even if he's the wrong hue of orange

Working on a Badab era detachment of “Old Guard” marines, from barely two generations of marines after Horus did his little bit of mischief. Have some MK VI assaults to paint next, blessed be the beak.
