Wow, that is an amazing army you have there. It's nice to see a fully painted and converted army that actually looks good for once.

 That is amazing. If you ever did sentinels I see them being more like the SoB penitent engines with guns which would rock.

Very well done. I was thinking of doing a second army of Adeptus and you, good sir, have sold me on the idea!

Fantastic conversions and a great paint job to compliment a unique looking army. That is 2 years of work that has definately paidoff for you! I remember an article in a White Dwarf mag about 5 years ago that showed a adept army similar to this and I loved it. Hopefully someday I will have the time to make one of my own. Great Job!

It's great to see somebody actually completing one of their ambitious projects. I know I struggle there ( see my Orks...).

Wow, I don't think you were born, but instead engineered out of pure awesome.
Brilliant idea with the psykers. I should have thought of that years ago. I'd love to see some Skitarii, though the ghouls are pretty much what I had pictured them as. Maybe with some armor and a little bulkier. Still, this army is the awesome.

Great to see an army like this: full of characterful conversions, well painted and built around a theme.
Bonus points for execution of theme and the tones of your paint work.
Those vat-born troops carry the mood of the army nicely as do the Psykers. I can't decide which is my favorite.
Good stuff.

This is some really sick stuff, I love your conversions and paint jobs. I really like the colour scheme on the tanks and the flesh guys. I just recently read the book Titanicus and it had skitarrii in it and I didn't really know what they looked like, now I do have an idea, really nice job.

Yeah, great work. Some walkers must be the next step, defiler conversions and possibly something like Cypher's excellent walkers?

I have to say, the first picture you have of the whole army I didn't think was flattering at all for them. I have to admit I didn't care for the red stripes much at all, but zoomed in, it all looks just great! Very impressed.

I had the same first impression of Lord_Astaroth, but the later photos you posted of the tanks look GREAT!
One question (it maybe have already been addressed and I missed it)- it looks like the red on the cloaks is different from the red on the vehicles. Is there a reason for this?
I think that's where the "red is too bright" comments are coming from. Imho, it looks great on its own, but when next to the models it's kind of overpowering? The pic where it stood out for me is the autocannon team- the red on the cloaks doesn't match the red stripe on the autocannon, which I believe is the same as on the vehicles:
Again, I think it looks great on its own! Just not sure how well those two reds mesh together. Regardless, fantastic army, I can't believe you converted that many models for guardsmen and the like  . Incredible!
