Thanks Brother! I appreciate it, I loved working on the Lts.

So I don't have all of the specialists done yet, But I do have my company medics. You need to harvest the geneseed Brothers! I also hated the "Imma stare at this in the middle of combat" so I made some arm swaps. Picking up a 10 man box of the intercessors really made a big difference. Totally worth it for all the additional bits that come in the box.

Very nice. I like how those turned out. Good bit swaps too. Those little adds go a long way.

Wow, even more. Arm swaps were a good call. You said specialists. Will there be a Primaris Chaplain in the lineup?

Thanks Ice! Yeah I just really did not like the stock pose. Fortunately there was enough give in the model that when I positioned the absolved bolt pistol horizontal and instead of straight down, it looked like he was still aiming and not being a gangster with the sideways shot, and the arm with the knife out feels far more appropriate - like “I’m busy, bother me and I’ll stab your face in” - and the comm link arm fits well, like he’s giving a status report.

and yes, a chaplain and librarian are both on their way. Currently the chaplain will be up next after I finish my last 5 Incenceptors. The Chaplain is clipped and cleaned and awaiting primer. I plan to finish the Inceptors this week and get the chaplain out next.

Infantry aside (who perform admirably) this next guy really kicks arse and takes names... a long list of names (Unless he is nuked turn 1.... haha... which happens) The plan is to add a second one to the company, probably after I've pickup up two Repulsors (even though I really don't like how it looks)

I didn't take any WIPs of the second set of 5 inceptors as they had been sitting primed and with their first wash on my work bench since before the holidays soooooo I just knocked them out! And now, I have a full (in my opinion) set of 10 Inceptors ready to rain down a hailstorm of bolt shells

Oh and I do have a WIP of the start of my Chaplain

Alright guys, since, apparently, I don't have the self control to stop at a certain point on a single model project... I knocked out my Primaris Chaplain last night

So, two pictures! 1st up is my WIP collage, in order from Top Left to Right and then Second row Left to Right in progession

2nd picture is the completed Chaplain! Really happy with how he turned out

Side Note - yes I know he is missing a piece on his robes, I'm waiting for some buts to come from Ebay so I can add an appropriately Dark Angelish bit

He's lovely, well done

Knocking them out nice and fast. Nice paint scheme and really clean finish on everything. How did you find painting the inceptors? They seem awkward with the stand and I don't even know how to go about priming mine :(

You've really been putting out some cracking work recently! A lot of those Primaris characters don't do a lot for me, but your minor tweaks and conversions do them a world of good. Great pace as well!

Boundless! Thanks for stopping by. Honestly, i painted them off the base and attached them when i was done. Waaaay easier.

Para! Thanks brother! Means a lot comung from you and your quality of work.

Wow, your force is coming together nicely! Love what you did with the medic. I’m not a big fan of his stock pose, and your swaps make him infinitely better.

You have an army shot of everyone together?

Damn that's a cool model. Nice clean painting. Classy look with the green coat.

Thanks Shock! Yeah I actually thought about doing the robe Bone colored, but I'm really happy I went with Green. If I paint another one, maybe I'll go with bone for him.

Nev! Ask and you shall recieve. Still need to finish basing the the Rievers and the 10 man Standard Hellblasters.

I have the first 5 of the next 20 Intercessors almost done as well. Just need to finish their helms before I base them. The plan is to take my current 4 5-man squads up to a full 10.

I currently have 50 Battle Brothers ready (the ones in the picture!) and I have enough marines on hand to round that out to a complete company. 10 more Dark Imperium Hellblasters, the aforementioned 20 more DI intercessors. I have 5 more Rievers, and two boxes of Aggressors to make a 5 man team as well. Once I get through all of that, I'll build a 10 man intercessor with auto bolt rifles and 10 with Stalkers and that should round me out at 100 plus command / specialists.... and then probably another Dread....

Great stuff - It's always satisfying to set out a painted army

Very Impressive!

Nothing like a shot of a well painted army. Except a shot of a full battle company of marines. And you are halfway there, and painting at a good clip. Keep up the good work.

Dude these look kickass!

It's almost enough to make me regret not sticking to one project for long enough to wind up with an army at the end of it

I missed the Reivers before they are by far my favourite. I like how you've gone for the black armour rather than the same as the rest of the army, the skulls on the helmet look great too. Brilliant army shot, it does look very satisfying

Sweet army shot. Keep it up!

Thank you everyone for stopping by! Nothing too crazy today. I knocked out 5 more intercessors last night.

If I haven't mentioned it before, I'm using PopGoesTheMonkey's squad marking bits over on shapeways. They're a little too thick to use on normal space marines, but on Primaris Marines, especially the ones from Dark Imperium that you can't swap the shoulder pads out, they rock. I use his Angels of Vengeance and Angels of Vigilance pads too. Great stuff, worth the money if he has what you're looking for and he does take requests.

Nothing too big, just added the shoulder squad marking bits and finished basing them

Love all that plasma. Those shoulder pad designs are a great addition.

Master Azalle! I almost feel bad that I haven't visited before! What a rocking blog you've got. I'm a big fan of the Primaris founding material that's coming out. Your command structure stuff is cool, I now see what you mean about your Lt.s! I envy your ability to pump out large 10-man squads, that's got to be my weakness

Well, I'm glad you ALMOST felt bad about it brother!

And the 10 man squads are a lot easier to do on the smaller original Space Marines. There's a lot more real estate and hard lines on the primaris marines. I'm finishing my next round of 5 intercessors before I build my 5 man Aggressors.

@YouWasShock Thanks for stopping in brother. I really do love how the shoulder pad decals turned out. Not going to lie, I was a little hesitant at first. PopGoesTheMonkey on shapeways puts out some great parts. He just uploaded the symbol for the Blades of Vengeance, So I have those coming my way too! As well as a vehicle Icon pack. Really excited for that.

No new pictures as I've manged to goof the camera on my phone... hopefully ill have that sorted out by the end of next week.

Been a little while. Longer than I'd like. Sadly, my phone (which is also my camera) was in need of some *minor* ministrations from the tech priests. After the Ministorum sent the wrong parts twice... I've managed to fix it! Hazzah.

But! I was in fact working without having my camera working and busy. I may or may not have also acquired three Armiger Warglaives (cuz... that's a super heavy detachment...) and in an effort to be competitive... I'll be finishing a Supreme Command Detachment of Sammael and two Talon Masters... bc thats a lot of dakka, at T5, with power swords... sooo yeah.

ANYWAYS. I am still working on finishing my Primaris Company. I'll be jumping back and forth between Blades of Vengeance and Angels of Vengeance going forward. I'm also waiting on a pile of resin from Pop Goes the Monkey. My request was answered and I now have BoV icons coming my way!

But, pics or it didn't happen:

So much primarus the humble space marine is lost. Yet the painting is so good i am ok with this.

Don’t worry Panda. The OG Marines have not been forgotten.

So, I've started working on my Supreme Command Detachment!

I have forgotten how much actual detail there was on the landspeeder models. I was a lil sneaky about this though. I bought 3 of the easy to build versions (the blue plastic snap togethers) Because I could find them for $18 a pop on ebay. I was only able to source 1 of the twin linked assault cannons, but I have enough of the twin linked heavy bolters for all three. I bit the bullet and ordered two more sprues through my LFGS.

Side note on the "easy to build" landspeeders.... They are Maddening to put together. My modeling skills have improved over the years, and I'm quite proud of that, but these guys were just a nightmare... Anyways... after cursing the GW ad nuasium... I managed to get three chaises together. So I have the initial priming and my first wip below

Looking ace dude! And glad to see our world is taking 40k logistics to heart

I'd just like to point out the bone work on the primaris shoulder pads looks really really good!
