Captain Remus Ventanus - Ultramarines XIII Legion - Forgeworld


"Today we march for Calth"

Hello everyone
I just finished painting this mini, which is the first of my new army project. Ever since I read "Know No Fear" I knew I had to do an Ultramarines army. This project won't be my main focus, but I will probably paint a unit once in a while, slowly building to a 2000-2500pts list, mostly centered around the events on Calth.

I thought I would start out by converting and painting my first HQ choice, Captain Remus Ventanus of the 4th Company. The model is converted from the limited Iron Warriors Character (Narik Dreygur), Ultramarine bits, Lokens Cloak and one of Guillimans Standards from his Scenic base.

The mini is painted with a lot of inspiration taken from Matt Kanes Ultramarines and Myles Davids Ultramarine Patreon content.


  
  
  

Anyway hope you like it.
Next up is another Primarch :D

Until next time
Chris

Solaire of Astora - Pegaso Models - English Knight XIV c. (54-074)



"The sun is a wondrous body. Like a magnificent father! 
If only I could be so grossly incandescent!"

Hello everyone

I got this model as a birthday gift from my little brother a year or 2 ago and finally got around to actually paint it. I had originally planned to paint it in a more historically accurate theme, but this just seemed a lot more fun! :-D

So instead of painting it as the English Knight, it was meant to be, I decided to paint him as jolly sun searching Knight Solaire from the video game Dark Souls.

I had never previously painted anything in this scale (54mm) so it was a very fun little exercise and I'm very happy with the end result.

  
  



Next up is a single Horus Heresy character which will be the start of my new army #newYearNewLegion and afterwards I will finish painting another Primarch figure for a friend of mine.

So until next time
Chris
