Here are pictures of the first finished Miniatures of my DIY Space Marine Chapter The Galactic Knights of the Ordo Teutonicus" or short just Galactic Knights. If you want

Nice work - the paint work is excellent. However, the one thing which really ruins these? The basing material around the base edges really needs to be cleaned up. The miniatures themselves are really really nicely painted...and then it looks completely unfinished becaus eyou have clashing gravel/colour spilling down the edges of the base.

Would make a world of difference if it was cleaned up.

Thanks Elbows will change that in the future

Here are a few more miniatures of the 2nd Gefechtskompanie 5th Gruppe ( a Hellblastersquad)

Cool how many Marie's have you painted? I love the white color scheme with the yellow trim

Colour scheme and very clean painting are most important virtues of Your army, regarda

Looks really clean!

Greetings ordoteutonicus, Your Galactic Knights have a very clean and crisp paint scheme. I like the bright clean white of the armor of on the Space Marines. I wonder did You order the shoulder emblems or did You craft them Yourself? They look great! Look forward to seeing more of Your Galactic Knights Army.

Really awesome homebrew Space Marine Chapter, lovely clean painting - well done!

Awesome clean colour scheme. Nice lore intro too. Love seeing a good homebrew

Sorry to reply so late but normal life came in between

Darkstar: The shoulder emblems are selfmade decals.

Here is the next Space Marine of the 2nd Gefechtskompanie 3rd Gruppe, Bruder Johann. This is the first beaky marine i did for the Galactic Knights. I will do a few more in older armor as it is the habit of the ordo teutonicus ,aka the Galactic Knights, to pass on old armor to new marines . So there will be ,eventually, all kinds of tactical and terminator armor in the chapter.



Here is the complete first half of the 3rd Gruppe 2nd Gefechtskompanie:



The emblems on the shoulders and the knees are all selfmade decals.

Here is the first member of the 2nd Gruppe 1st Kompanie ( Mondkrieger) of the Galactic Knights space marine chapter. This is as in every space marine chapter the elite company of the Ordo Teutonicus. They are called Mondkrieger ( Moonwarriors) as they claimed the Moon Münster for their chapter as a new base after the first Homeworld of the chapter was lost to an Ork attack. More on the history of the Galactic knights here: https://wargamesgazette.com/bruder-holger-white-knight-space-marine/

Here is the next member of the 2nd Gruppe, 1st Gefechtskompanie ” Mondkrieger” of the Galactic Knights / Ordo Teutonicus space marine chapter. Bruder Tom:

and another member of the 3rd Gruppe 2nd Gefechtskompanie:

Greetings, Your models are extremely cool!! Good to see MK III Armor is being represented! Thank You for sharing pictures of Your Art Work!. Looking Forward to seeing a massive army picture of Your collected works.

What did you use for your white? I have been trying to do white and I am just not happy with it.

I use Valejo paints. The basecoat is skygrey applied with an airbrush followed by a 45 degree angled highlight of white. everything else is done with a brush.
Next step being a light wash with light grey wash and a last highlight with white again. Then decals ( homemade) and other colors. Hope that helps.


Automatically Appended Next Post:
Here is the next member of the 3rd Gruppe 2nd Gefechtskompanie of the Galactic Knights space marines. He is wearing mark IV or Maximus power armor.

At the Mark IV stage of Power Armour development, Space Marine armour began to take on an appearance recognizable to that of contemporary Power Armour patterns, its primary change being the abandonment of the separate abutting plates of armour in favour of larger, inflexible armour casings incorporating flexible joints. This marginally reduced an Astartes’ mobility but was far easier to produce and maintain, and the suit was actually lighter and provided its wearer with more overall mobility due to the lessened weight, while not reducing the actual level of protection the suit provided compared to its Mark II counterpart. The Mark IV suit’s helmet was a completely new design, the basic shape inspired by the sweeping front of the Mark III. In Mark III and later versions the helmet was no longer fixed to the armour’s neck plates, but moved with the wearer’s head while still maintaining an environmental seal.



Here is the almost complete 3rd Gruppe: ( only 3 marines missing)

White and yellow? You are braver than I am. They look fantastic, keep up the good work!

I finished the Kompaniemeister or short Meister of the second Gefechtskompanie of the Galactic knights space marine chapter of the Ordo teutonics.
The Kompaniemeister is the equivalent of a captain in other chapters. So here is Bruder Thomas 2nd Kompaniemeister of the Ordo Teutonicus Galactic Knights.
