Midnightmare Posted May 2, 2021 Author Share Posted May 2, 2021 Many, many thanks guys for your continued interest in the project! For now we have an update.... The infamous "Jaws of Doom" Assault Squad launches a frontal attack on a heavily defended Ork fortress Or do they...... Here is my attempt at recreating the old Rogue Trader artwork found in the old Warhammer Seige book, only with a twist. As well as the original, I have re-imagined it using the marines of the mysterious Silver Stars, set in the War of the False Primarch M33. Much of the history and information is lost or downright hidden. Perhaps this image was created to hide the original by some administarum adept under the orders of the Inquisition. Some things are, of course, best left forgotten.... The Jaws of Doom, attack - The Orks are my brothers, he has a massive Deathskullz army The redacted version - The Silver Stars; mysterious marines with a Legion sized force with their leader proclaiming to be one of the lost Primarchs. My take on apologist’s beautiful colour scheme. As usual, mine are pretty beat up! I went for the green power sword so as to tie in the colour scheme with the Deathskullz a little. Closer look at Sgt Gregor here - .....and of course the original artwork! Clearer than the one I usually use thanks again to apologist. Note the red marking on the Sergeant’s shoulder pad, I have tried to recreate that in a sense, but only a the ‘Rose of the Pentarchy’ I have had a blast attempting to recreate the artwork, hope you like! It was quite tricky to take as the Warhammer Mighty Fortress is, well, quite mighty!

Doghouse Posted May 2, 2021 Share Posted May 2, 2021 Very nice, I wasn't expecting the inclusion of the wall and Orks. That's a really nice touch, great work on the weathering as well. Midnightmare 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monstra Sumus Posted May 2, 2021 Share Posted May 2, 2021 Excellent little diorama piece. Midnightmare 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Midnightmare Posted May 3, 2021 Author Share Posted May 3, 2021 (edited) Thanks very much guys, I have had a blast doing it. @Doghouse - yes mate, the Orks are my brothers; he has such an awesome army of them it would have been rude not to me thinks. The wall was a cheap buy off eBay, they are getting quite rare now I think. EDIT:spelling Edited May 3, 2021 by Midnightmare Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Majkhel Posted May 11, 2021 Share Posted May 11, 2021 Fantastic work! I appreciate the plot twist with redacting :DWill you be expanding the scene further adding more characters to it? Midnightmare 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Midnightmare Posted May 14, 2021 Author Share Posted May 14, 2021 (edited) My current WIP, the Sanguinary Guard! Primaris sized and still a fair bit of work to do, but you get the idea! ......and some close ups of some of the ones closer to paint. Apologies for the black and white but all the different coloured plastics and the putty made my eyes hurt :D @Majkhel - thanks man, I won’t be adding any specific characters to to this scene, but I am not counting out any more Silver Stars or even one of the other Partisan Chapters. If I were to do any more of the Pentarchy then I am thinking the Charnel Guard as I have a soft spot for them. @Xenith - much appreciated mate, I have had a great time with these and I hope it shows. @Grizz - hola my dude!! Yes, like all good vampires it just refuses to die :D :D hoping to get these Sanguinary Guard bois ready for paint, then after that more Eradicators and MOAR DEATH COMPANY. Basically all the fun stuff :tu: Edited May 14, 2021 by Midnightmare Doghouse, Biohazard, Dumah and 6 others 9 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pearson73 Posted May 14, 2021 Share Posted May 14, 2021 Man your work just keeps getting better and better! The bulk of these guys makes them look dangerous and huge, just as Astartes should, but again, you manage to keep the artistry and grace that's so indicative of Sanguinius' sons.

Midnightmare Posted May 15, 2021 Author Share Posted May 15, 2021 Thanks guys :) it is turning into quite a big project but will be worth it in the end - still some more sculpting to do then on to paint! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Midnightmare Posted June 11, 2021 Author Share Posted June 11, 2021 First Sanguinary Guardsman: complete! Some of the details: I wasn’t sure at first on the black wings, but it works with the Flesh Eaters darker aesthetic and the weathered gold. It is quite daunting painting a full squad with energy weapons, but so far having a blast with this squad. The next member is 90% complete, so expect him soon. Cheers!

Midnightmare Posted June 11, 2021 Author Share Posted June 11, 2021 Thanks mate - I am 90% sure the face was out of the Corpse Cart kit, and bashed with the Sanguinary Guard knee with the halo and grafted I place of the Primaris knee. The other knee was a bit easier being a greenstuff blood drop :tu: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sockwithaticket Posted June 17, 2021 Share Posted June 17, 2021 My absolute favourite thing about that SG is the switch of face on the knee to a more bestial design. Super chapter appropriate detail. Jolemai and Midnightmare 2 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
