Thanks youwashock, I’ll try to keep it up

I agree completely. There is something much more iconic about first born, I prefer them too.

Void Panthers are looking great. I've been tempted for a while to ask for a full company/force shot but I know how much work they are to set up... So it's a wonderful surprise to see your post. I have some catching up to do on my Dark Angels 5th company after seeing your Void Panthers
Your devastator Sargent definitely stands out. Nicely built.

If you liked the last post then you might like this one too! Firstborn FTW!

I think so too! Might take me a while though!

After a tough week or two I’ve managed to get some painting and a bit of inspiration fuelled some purchases I also got some building done. First up though here are some pics of the completed Demi Company of Void Panthers

They’ll get a bit shuffled around when I paint up Heavy Weapons to match the Sergeant and Special Weapons guys, but I think they look cool all painted up nice. So I also got a pic of the whole painted army to date

By BattleScribes reckoning it’s just shy of 2000 points of shiny death!

I’ve not just been admiring my handy work I’ve also been working on a new mini: a chaplain for the Panthers:



He’s developing nicely but could do with a good bit of tidying up of the purple edge highlights on the black bits. I tried using my magnifying light, but I had to get the mini so close to it that I kept hitting the end of the brush on the light! I then decided to upgrade with some cool hobby magnifying glasses with an inbuilt light

My display shelves also got a literal glow up as I installed some motion sensor battery powered LEDs. The kids love them as they have a remote and can change colour . I took some pics but they turned out rubbish, so I’ll try again some time

Thanks for looking

Panthers at the disco!

Great looking batch of minis, gobert. Quite an accomplishment. And no slowing down, as the Chaplain is looking sweet. The black armored stuff looks so good with the gold and purple, while breaking up what would be an endless sea of bling.

Amazing job on the chaplain. Also there's just something about the spooky scary skeleton vibe of them that makes them just an amazing addition.

All together look really amazing. The chaplain is also going great, looking forward to seeing it finished!

You're right, I do love the latest pictures and additions too. Beautiful work! It's hard to believe it's only around 2000 points... feels like it should be a lot more.

Disco indeed! Everyone loves an Army pic right!? I’m glad you like the Black bits, I’m very pleased I went that route, as you say, it breaks up the sea of bling and gives me some slightly different painting to do. Hopefully you’ll like the end product of the Chaplain

Yeah, the skelebob vibes of the Chaplains make them some of the best look SM units, this chap has even been quite fun to paint!

Beauty in numbers I think! amazingly I’m feeling motivated for the second half of the Company now

Last night I finished up the Chaplain who I’m thinking is called Chaplain Germanus. From the last pic he got the tidy up of the black and a second highlight. His chapter icon got 2 highlights as did the purple areas. The greens got the usual treatment of Emerald Green and striking scorpion green. His eyes got a wash of Ork Flesh Wash, a dot of white and some flouro green for a bit more glow. The base was the last bit with a bit of lighter grey for the rubble, a Basilicanum grey coat for the broken Aquila an all over wash and a bit of an edge highlight on the Aquila. And here he is; Chaplain Germanus of the Void Panthers:





The proper pics will follow in due course. There are a few more pics in the Void Panthers gallery for those that want a sneak peak. I was also challenged on insta for a close up shot of a mini by our very own Ezki ( @tarkamos_mini_workshop), so here’s that pic… but beware the horrors of getting this close to one of my miniatures!



I did clear him off the desk and on to the shelf so here’s a few more pics. Here he is leading a group of Panthers



And again with the Chapter Leadership



Not a bad looking bunch!

Germanus was moved off the desk to make way for this lot…



Because I didn’t need any more projects . I was so pumped to get started on them that I’ve built the Blooded and Gellerpox Infected. The Blooded came with twins of the Blackstone Fortress Traitor Commissar and Ogryn, so I dug around in my bits box and kitbashed them both

This one was tough getting the armour to fit and then reattaching the Chaos star.

The Enforcer was fun too, getting a Scions flag that will obviously get some graffiti. They’ve all been primed now and will jump to the front of the queue. I’ve also printed some more Blackstone Fortress bases as they’ll make a good expansion to the Traitor Guard from the game.

I also got one decent photo of the upgraded display shelves showing the background I’ve printed for the Elves

And that’s it for today


Thanks for looking!

Missed this one, sneaking in while I’m writing! Glad you like the pics and have a few more to enjoy now. I also can’t believe it’s only 2000 points, I’m pretty sure it’d be more in 2nd Edition!

Looking great! I love some converted chaos guard bois. Their new kits are fun to play with - Grab the Khorne Jackals kit for even more flexibility with some of the leftover pieces from the Blooded kill team (and for some more running legs. So many running legs). I used them and the new cadian kit and needed minimal green stuffing (mostly on the backpack areas) to make them look really good.

Those green eyes are so ghostly good. Love the way he has turned out. Looks great with the boys, too. Nice work with the new arrivals. That Ogryn is going to be awesome.
