nice writing... i couldn´t read it completly but i like the style of your writing...micropen at work?
also on the first engine, the one with the male...the blade is a bit too heavily washed with sepia?
but they do look very expensive already!
as for the dialogus... where is the plastic SOB from? i always thought there are only metal ones around??? but the model looks good...she is reciting from the book to the troops via speaker?

Micropen a go-go! Thanks mate. The heavy sepia wash on the blade was an experiment, thought I'd see how it looked and go from there. I'm 50-50 on it myself.
There's a plastic torso front and heads on the immolator sprue. The legs here are from a deldar raider, the other bits are miscellany! And yeah, I like the idea of her standing in the middle of a warzone, with an amp and bolt pistol, reciting imperial poetry and shooting heretical scum.

Well, it was in a bitz box I got via eBay...a Treasure...
And as far as I know, these days you only need one to start an army
And as graven said, that helmet is from one of the view platic kits of SoB out there, a tank kit, thus you get it just as a niece detail...

I'm actually pretty good for troops, thanks though. Helms are handy for head swaps etc. though.
So, first, the occasional acolyte:
Do like how that old Griffon model's come up.
And the Engines, which tbh I'm not 100% happy with, but I really, really need to pack stuff up today, so just have to live with them as they are:
And for Vik's benefit, the devotional scrolls say:
"His Bounty and Kindness are All. In Death, Freedom."
"All Shall Perish in Fire and Fury  There Is His Truth."
I'm going to try to get as much done on Kyrinova before I have to squirrel everything away.
Later chaps and chapettes,

Fair dos, each to their own.
And to finish, as the great pack-up begins, Kyrinova, done:
Complete with teardrop for the suffering of the faithful!
And bloody chunks of the faithless.

does Kyrinova sport a smirk? as if someone had recently tried to switch the radiostation?...i guess that´s what she is swinging the mace probably too 
thanks for the scroll texts... very cool!
and i just discovered the slight puple hue on the blade...and is that marble on those standards?... i think you did wonderful with these engines!
the only thing is...with those banners...line of sight will not be a friend of these
