I'm still working on th4 that was sent to me, progress is slow seeing as how I'm simultaneously building and sculpting space wolves along with also painting them.

**Warboss Imbad Ironskull**

I'm confused by this.

If this has already been pointed out forgive me, your army is supposed to be a Deathwatch force yet none of your marines are actually painted in the Deathwatch paint scheme. They have all retained the colors of their chapters they just have a Deathwatch shoulder guard which according to fluff means that they have served in the Deathwatch and have since then returned to their chapter?

If this is another part of the army that's un fluffy that's fine. I have my own Deathwatch army using the SM codex despite what everyone says that Deathwatch woulden't form an actual army so I get where you're coming from on that. I just don't get why they aren't painted as Deathwatch if that's what they're supposed to be?

**porkuslime**

My fluff is that these guys are all DW veterans, and have been seconded to Inquisitor Speilman and his =I= strike force. Inquisitor Speilman is a bit more liberal in his thinking and counter to standard DW colors, has generously allowed his DW members to retain their origin color schemes, with just the DW pad to show what they are up to at the moment.

Out of fluff... I wanted to have a visually distinct and different army .. sort of my own Codex Astartes gallery. It is much easier to do the black and silver official DW scheme than this.. but I enjoy being different. Plus, for this army, EACH model has his own story and name.. which allows me to grab a figure, and say..

"Oh, this marine, the Mortificator? He was painted for me by my pal Gitsplitta off DakkaDakka.. great website.. you should visit it.. "

**Laughing God**

**Asherian Command**

I kinda want to send you one of my marines. But they are unpainted :(

**Müller**

Sorry for the delay, been swamped with work.
I've started them though

**Commander Cain**

Exorcist is on his way. Hope you like him!!!

**Matrim**

.....Want a Soul Drinker?

**porkuslime**

Matrim, while I WOULD like a Soul Drinker, abnd I appreciate the offer, I think that they are a little on the "outcast and persecuted" side of things, and would not fit well with the army idea. Gitsplitta offered me one of his Mantis Warriors and I declined for the same reason..

**Matrim**

No probs! - saves me shipping to the USA!

**CalasTyphon216**

seriously i can send you a flesh tearer if you want

**whalemusic360**

I think the MW are a bit safer, as they have been officially forgiven. The SD I cant see though.

@ Matrim - I just started SD, any pointers? See the GMS or my gallery for some examples.

**Commander Cain**

Glad to see that Cayne is all based and painted. Hope you like him

**porkuslime**

My photography skills are not the equal to the paint on these models.. Cayne really looks sharp in person.. my spouse commented on the lines and highlights..

**Commander Cain**

Yeah, they took a long time to do. It was worth the extra effort though.

**whalemusic360**

Yeah the hightlights are great CC.
