I'm painting an army of my custom chapter, the Green Knights. I've finished a tactical squad and a Librarian (the tactical squad's sergeant and the librarian are both below and in my Green Knights gallery). I'll post some more pictures of the tactical squad members soon. Next up painting-wise is a captain.

Very nice faces.

Will you be making a company commander based on the Green Knight from the brettonian range?

Awesome job!

Browsing this site makes me feel like a bad painter *sob*

After seeing the title, I was expecting some really poorly painted green Grey Knights.

I am sorely dissapointed.

Very nice.

Thats a very nice green and the freehand on the 'apron' is great

Looking forward to more

Thanks all. I just wish I could move a little faster...

Not sure--my inspiration was the Green Knight from Sir Gawain and the Green Knight. That, and failure. I had initially planned to paint Blood Ravens, succeeded with one model, and then, when I tried to replicate my paint job on the next (three), I failed. In despair I decided I would make a custom chapter in the color that was the opposite of red.

That's a pretty funny story. I would definetly recommend putting that one red marine in the army, just for gaks and giggles.

I'm going to be uploading pictures of the rest of my tactical squad over the next few days. Here's the first one.

More of them...

I like! good stuff!

AHH THIS IS MY COLOR SCHEME! AHHH! Looks like i need to add something to my models.....

they look like sons of horus, but regardless good job

Beautiful :3

Very nice, but i don't like the green eyes though. Maybe make them yellow or purple?

Thanks for all the feedback. As for the green eyes, I thought about doing red but settled on green because I knew I'd have enough red with the purity seals etc. Purple is an interesting idea though!

Here's my captain, done at last.

It's been a while since I posted, but that's not because I haven't been painting--I just haven't had access to a camera. Tonight, though, I took a shot of my painted force so far (excluding five scouts who are off to the side). Next up are sternguard veterans and some assault marines. Here's the shot:
