Checked out the blog. That is an insane amount of Gundam for one person to own. Look forward to the future progress of the project.
Have you considered running a parallel P&M Blog here. The process is very simple and I think you would have a lot more interactive feedback. If you know GreyDeath of The Painting Corps, he run a blog like yours but also the parallel one too.

As everyone said, impressive skills here
But I would rather go with the Celestial Lions: Name looks good, fluff is cool, you can be the only survivor, lions are cool...

Stand by what I say Death Knights because who doesn't want a death knight army? And Dark Marines that are honorable and have badass shoulder pads? Comeon the chapter master and council will be badasses!

I wish I had the time to sculpt for other peoples armies. As it is, I hardly have enough time to sculpt for myself
What's with the Exorcists fluff? Back in the Badab War Dark Star Campaign event, they had Have Faith in Suspicion as a drawback. The BL story 'Headhunted' gives us a glimpse of why they would have a strong aversion to psychics. It also implied that the process of their creation made them a lesser form of Untouchables and hence couldn't use psychic powers.
Yet in the 5th edition codex it clearly shows a Exorcist Librarian. Are the Lbrarians on loan form another Chapter or something?
According to the GW site the recommended unit for the Chapter is a chaplain and scouts. Which would have be fine if they hadn't nerfed Chaplains in 5th edition. I can't see myself spending points on a Chaplain when I can spend the points on a Captain instead.
 So I'm thinking of taking one of the named characters and modeling him up to look like a Chaplain for my army instead. Kahn or Vulkan should do nicely with their abilities.

The character conversion sounds like a great way to stick to the fluff without nerfing the force. How about Calgar if you could get a nice skull from somewhere, maybe Chaos or even a 3rd party producer it would look quite good I think.
As for the libby on loan scheme your talking about I think its just a mix up between two of the depts of GW. If the Exorcists have an aversion to psychics then they would accept transfers of them into their numbers. Same as BT.
Don't forget that in April the GK are set to arrive and being a successor chapter means that you should be able to play of their Codex too, just a little something to bear in mind before you set out anything to rigidly.

I love the Calgar model but he's kind of an expensive model. Not sure how I would convert the powerfists to look like a crozius either
For a Vulkan conversion I could just lengthen the crozius and put a spear head on the top of it. For Khan I can just use a crozius and call it Moonfang, since the sword's a power weapon and not a relic blade.
Thanks for reminding me that the GK are incoming in April. With the contradictions between BL and GW, I wouldn't be surprised if their new codex claims there are no successor chapter of the Grey Knights
