So a new year has started and I have been given a ton of models to paint for Christmas. I've mostly received Space Marines because I'm starting my own chapter called the Stone Sentinels, and I've already finished some models. I also received some Necrons, which I will upload as well.

I've written some background for my chapter,which you can find here http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/397301.page . I am still editing and adding to it though, so suggestions are welcome, for both background and models.

I like the paint scheme on the Rhino

I've got more stuff. I have recently finished building and painting my space marine commander, but I wasn't sure which weapons I wanted, so I found a way to put three on one arm so I can decide what I want them to count as. I also pinned the gun arm so I can change which gun I want. the arm can count as a power weapon, power claw or a power shield.

What do you think: cool or illegal to use?

Thanks, I wanted to do a paint scheme that was less boisterous and closer suited to blending into a city.

Some assault marines from the battleforce kit. I wanted to put pouches on the chest to kit them out the same paratroopers do in real life. I've also decided to make my emblem a white mountain on a black shield. I might change the shield colour though.

Here's some progress on my doomsday ark. After this and immortals, I have to a conclusion on necrons. The new models are a complete torture to build, especially when your glue is beginning to lose its ability to adhere. All the little bits and complicated ways they connect have taken a large effort to build.

So far, I've painted and washed all the metal pieces, have base coated all the plates and painted the energy conduits green.

I've finished the main body of the doomsday ark, now all I have left is the gun and the ribs. After this a plan on going back to some of my space marine models and adding some mud to them and basing them.
