Hello hobbyists!
Welcome to my P&M thread, where I'll be building a custom chapter of Space Marines I call the Iron Reapers. It's going to be a long time to finish off the full 2000pts, so buckle up buckaroos.
For me, I've been in the hobby on and off for about 18 years, and I've always wanted to convert up a real nice looking army to use on the table. Now that I have a career, I'm confident we can accomplish this.
To start things off, I'd just like to showcase a few bits I've accumulated from PopGoesTheMonkey and Liber Daemonica.
In a few days from now I should be getting a paint order from Reaper, so until then I don't have much in the way of painted pieces.
Cheers!

Small little update. Had a great career change and was actually able to afford a model. Picked up the newer Captain in Gravis Armour. With a little dremel work and a couple beers I was able to get the scythe hand from PopGoestheMonkey onto the arm.
Anyways, I've already started the painting process so once I've done at least the armour I'll post an update.
Cheers!

Another small update on the chapter master. Done a ton of work on the armor overall. Still so much left to go....
Also finished the helmet, but were gonna save that for the finished piece.

Been doubling down on some minis lately. Trying to find motivation can be difficult, especially when life keeps throwing curveballs your way.
General question to readers, how do you motivate yourself to paint?
Anyways, cheers!

Another update on the first portion of my Iron Reapers chapter. This time we have highlights and a few heads going, plus minor details like the purity seals, leather pouches, and a bit of basing.

"I have seen war in all its forms. I have seen feral world savages braining each other with stones, and I have monitored the death of a whole planet at the hands of a virus bomb. I have seen Space Marines drop to certain death, and win. I have seen Titans crush whole platoons underfoot. But there is no more stirring sight in war than the charge of massed cavalry." - Dravin Gratz, 14th Tharinga Regiment.

This weekend I was able to sit down and polish off most of the sergeant for my Intercession Killteam. At this point I can confidently get out and play some games finally. Well after some basing later tonight.
Also have the cape and potentially a banner on the Chapter Master to work on, so updates on that later too.
Thanks for stopping by!
Edit, having technical difficulties with the photos on the website, they only seem to post upsidedown. We'll be back.
