For May, Galaspar oaths 5 space marines!



Hopefully I haven't left it too late in the month to make a decent job of them. Actually planned this oath a while ago, when the theme for the month was looking to be "paint your oldest model" - that captain in the centre is from 1986, and I figured he'd be a good counterpart to the 30th anniversary marine. Still, kitbashed the wide-grilled fellow on the other side with fur, chain, axe and sword, so I can try for the fantasy theme. He was fun to make, as well!

Is this as big as it looks?

Perhaps not, scale isn't too clear on that picture. His own base is 40mm, and including the rock he stands on he's about twice the height of a space marine, maybe a little less. The scenic base which the gaming base fits into is 60mm. Not nearly as chunky a challenge as the Imperial Knight I oathed a while back, but certainly a centrepiece I want to get right.

Hope I've done that right, haven't done an oath addition before. He needs painting ASAP for Kill Team, so might as will chuck him in.

It's an important moment for the family - I get those three marines painted, and I can finally run two tactical squads, and so pretty much any Rite of War I like. Only taken me a year!

The sorcerer is more of an awkward uncle, I'm painting him just for the fun of it, although the next Horus Heresy book might make daemon summoning a useful skill.

The one on the back right is from about 1990, possibly not the oldest mini I've got but pretty close.

I really like what you do with your space marines. I don't know if this is an actual GW pallette but I've never seen any with these colors before. The white and green really make them stand out. I like your heroes purple capes. These guys probably look real nice on the table.

Thanks! It's a variation on the Death Guard Scheme from the Horus Heresy. I like to take the green a lot brighter that the standard scheme though, gives them a little sickly something.

One for all



It's been one hell of an oath year. Painted most of an army, and a few odds and sods too. Also, I learned enough along the way to complete this guy, who won Skullapalooza:
