Hey everyone, thought i'd share my latest foray into the wonderful world of space marines! this army started out as my pet project that I had wanted to do for a long time but recently had need to sell it I know it sounds sad but it made me finally finish what is a beautiful chapter and very striking army! so much individuality and I just love the look of them. I know they're off to a good home and shall be enjoyed. I hope you guys enjoy them too

I really like your style of painting - contrasting, colourful, highly detailed, yet keeping "grimdark" style. This army looks totally awesome, great job man.

These are spectacular. I love to see different chapters portrayed, it makes it hard not to collect more than just one marine chapter Love these, crimson fists etc, at least I can have them all represented in my Deathwatch.

Thanks guys, I really like them too and I can see what you mean by the contradictory soft/harsh,bright and grimdark :-) it kind of is actually what I wanted to convey! these are grimdark warriors who use their livery to announce their arrival of the emperors wrath!

These look fantastic. So much so that you actually got me to stop and read the fluff on this chapter.

Very Very Nice!

Great colors, very deep.

I really like the Chaplain in Terminator Armor. Is it kitbashed? I have not seen anything like it.

I have never gotten into 40K, but after seeing your army, I am tempted to take out a loan and buy some minis for the game!

Your work is truly inspiring. I have never put much time into learning how to paint a battle-worn army, but yours is done 'right'.

I've always liked the bold colours of the Howling Griffons but never fancied doing it myself so it's always great to see when someone does an amazing job like this!

Thanks guys, I appreciate it! They've gone to a new home now leaving me open to more ideas! :-) but if GW hadn't pulled the old primaris crap i'd have kept them as i do love the fluff and scheme of them! but they're here now immortalized on Dakka!
