**Mad..**

Coming along nicely Knightley.

**ZergSmasher**

The Sternguard look great so far! Are these the ones that are going to have all those magnetized options that you did before?

**Knightley**

@WarbossDakka - I do like this beaky head, not such a fan of the others however

Update: Last Sterngaurd base colours done

**Knightley**

Update: washes applied to all models

**Mad..**

Nice to see them all washed... filthy marines

Going to be great when they all highlighted and put together!

**Gitsplitta**

Making great progress Knightley!

**Knightley**

@Mad - Dirty, Dirty, Dirty marines. specially when I pride my marines in the clean lines.

@Gits - Thanks dude!

Update: Metals applied

**Knightley**

Update: parchments done and some skulls started

**ZergSmasher**

They are coming together nicely!

**WarbossDakka**

They're definitely getting there! Great stuff.

**Yorkright**

So clean and crisp, lovely work could we get a group shot sometime of your army together?

**Knightley**

@Zerg - Thanks man!

@WarbossDakka - Yep, not long left to go now

@Yorkright - I'll see what I can sort once this push is done (it may not be all models, just the Grey Marines)

Update: Bone and Robes done

I also had two games this weekend, 1500p each game. The first was against LDP in our annual game. It was his first game of 8th and my 5th or 6th. He brought a list like he would have in 7th so there was a few not optimised options, and deployment let him down, I squeeked a victory there. The second was against Mad. I got schooled in an objective game, but learnt a lot about the Necrons I took so it was highly beneficial for me! Also, 20 Genestealers hit like a Mac Truck in combat!

**Gitsplitta**

Uugh... genestealers.

**Mad..**

Squad goals.... they are looking great!

Was an awesome game thanks Knightley, one of the few I've been able to play with the cult, I think we both learned a lot, and some of the dice rolling in the early game was atrocious haha

And the Genestealers got a bit lucky that their brethren were able to hang in there against the warrior blob while they scuttled across the board.

**Camkierhi**

The boys are looking excellent as usual. Sorry, fed up saying how wonderful your work is, I think you know by now, you are one of my favourite artists. One thing to say is how brilliantly consistent you are.

Read the batrep on mad's blog, sounds like a great game was had.

**Knightley**

@Gits - Yeah, that 5+ invun save is just the business for them, really added to their suitability!

@Mad - All those 1's, I'd like to charge, double 1's, CP to reroll, 1 again. OK, I'll shoot with this tank, 1's and 2's Ok, perhaps I wont. A real comedy of errors.

@Cam - That is very touching, I never considered myself an artist, so its a nice surprised to be labelled as one! I also popped across to Mads blog for a read.

Update: Blues and reds underway, should get them done today!

**Knightley**

Update: Sternguard completed

**Camkierhi**

They are brilliant bud, awesome work.

**Knightley**

@Cam - Thanks dude, appreciate it!

Update: Ok, so I have a ton of photos of the completed push, so I ask the question to everyone, do you want them all in one post, or space them out over a couple of days? In the mean time heres the completed push shot

**ZergSmasher**

Sure makes you proud to see all those completed models in one place, doesn't it? I know it did when I got all the Dark Imperium Primaris guys done. Almost brought a tear to my eye...

As for showing everything from this push, I'd say put them all in one post so that we can comment on the whole thing and tell what are our favorites. Although if it's easier for you to space them out, then by all means do that. Either way, I'm looking forward to it!

**IceAngel**

It's all good Knightley. I love the shots however you post them.

**Yorkright**

Thanks Knightley, I am with Ice Angel, any shots of your work is great.

**Knightley**

@Zerg - It does, its a nice endorphin release seeing the hard work pay off!

@Ice - inb4 posting the top half of one photo showing just the shoulders and head then two weeks later the bottom half

@Yorkright - Shots of this push incoming, army shot much later.

Busy fella! Excellent all over.

**Camkierhi**

Stunning collection, wonderful to see.

**Yorkright**

Oh I am a happy camper Knightley, so much squiggly goodness, keep em coming!

**ingtaer**

Very nice work Knightley, loving that Chaplain especially.

**Gitsplitta**

Amazing array of miniatures and a tour-de-force of your capabilities as an artist. Wow.

**Mad..**

Look at you dumping pictures all over the place for us to sit back and enjoy.

It's awesome to see the completed stuff all in one post like that, I sat here for quite a while looking at all the photos and picking up the little details, like the fact Voldus has a green bound book which works so well.

Great work bro, looking forward to facing some of this stuff on the table

**lipsdapips**

I'm such a fan of the captain built off Helbrecht's model! An awesome character in a collection of great minis. Cypher and of course Voldus look fantastic, as does everything else.
