The Marked Wulf Crusade : 8th Edition Battles


Recommended Posts

Thank you , though I doubt your models are to a lower standard mostly because i believe standards to be subjective to how much enjoyment you actually get out of your models 

I also refute all allegations that I re primed my land raiders ...

Honor ( and Insomnia)   demanded I complete the honor guard save their heads which will be forgeworld templar brethren helmets

Today I finished The First of the two Crusader Squads ,  I  also Got in and painted the first of two  drop pods ( thats right we ordered the second one so were good for 1850 boys! )  moved though my bits and found I could make two extra power fist guys , so I put them together and primed them.

Still need those heads to come in for my Honor Guard ...  but one drop pod one tech marine one thunderfire cannon and 10 crusaders to go

Pretty good job on your Grim (pewter for the win). The reds and parchment/bone came out very well.

 

It is a touch monotone in a couple of places though, where different parts with similar or identical colors overlap, i.e. the chains and plasma pistol.  And of course, basing.

Looking good, though I'll never understand the Hurricane Bolter sponsons on the back of a Raider... Right where they can shoot your guys in the backs of their heads as they pile out of the side doors :laugh.:

Everyone knows you shoot first, assault out the front ramp after :P Edited by Marshal Mattias

Thanks RPR that really is a compliment coming from as skilled a painted as you  , its actually become a bit harder to keep up my usual pace now that I am employed though.  I  finished up 5 of the 10 neophytes ive been working on last night ,  the other 4 with shotguns and another one with a knife will be done......soon enough   I have some initiates to work on

Couldnt Stop Myself , Painted the whole thing tonight.

" That one will  do.  . . .  BEAST COME CLOSER SO THAT YOU MAY DIE UPON MY BLADE."  - Marshal Marcus day 763 of the Marked Wulf Crusade

tumblr_ntmfinZ5Wu1tdqdkto2_540.jpg

" This is only the second most unwinnable battle ive fought in. Considering we won the first this should be no problem. " - Marshal Marcus  Day  458 of the Marked Wulf Crusade 

tumblr_ntmfinZ5Wu1tdqdkto3_540.jpg

" We do as we always have , we bring blade to the enemy and  then the next and the next , we can sort other matters out once we run out of enemies  to bring blade to."  - Marshal Marcus  Day 87 of the Marked Wulf Crusade 

tumblr_ntmfinZ5Wu1tdqdkto6_540.jpg

"You make a mistake Wolf Lord.  The blade is not chained to me , I am chained to it , the same way we are both chained to our duty." - Marshal Marcus  Day 1 of the Marked Wulf Crusade 

tumblr_ntmfinZ5Wu1tdqdkto5_540.jpg
" I made a vow upon  the grand crusader to return  this armor and this blade to my master , the one who granted it to me on the day this crusade began, I have no intention of dying before I can fufil that promise."  - Marshal Marcus  Day 502 of the Marked Wulf Crusade

Very nice job on Sigis-, um, Marcus. :)  I have mine slated for later this year after I get through a couple of projects. Yours, however, makes me very impatient.

 

I loved the quotes from your Marshal, but I especially liked this one:

 

"You make a mistake Wolf Lord.  The blade is not chained to me , I am chained to it , the same way we are both chained to our duty." - Marshal Marcus  Day 1 of the Marked Wulf Crusade

 

 

 

That really resonated with me. Well done.

Thank you for the compliment brother it motivates me to paint more stuff.

 

One thing I  will say I love about 40k is the ability to make your own heroes and have your own little avatar  on the board. Marcus is that for me. I was sitting around thinking about a Final Boss for my Templar army and I was reading the established fluff and I went.  " Man what am I gonna name this guy."

Then I was like  well my last name is Marquis ( pronounced Mar-key) but the most common way people mispronounce it is Marcus.

So I decided to go with that and I wanted him and my wolf lord to be similar guys with completely different approaches that become a little bit more like each other over the long time they are effectively crusading together.

The quotes are supposed to represent how  Marcus sort of shifts a little but stays true to his core  the longer the crusade goes on.

I  only had an hour today after work before I had to cook  dinner. Then again I  didint really have anything to paint but I  wanted to do something hobby related. So I looked around in my throw box and I noticed that the Mk2 Crusade Apothecary that came with the lot  that makes up my mkiii Grey hunters was just sitting there , primed white and unloved ( space wolves dont have apothecaries )   so I quickly painted him up.  Im okay with how he came out for only an hours work , definately not as hype as when I finished Marcus , but hey now I have an apothecary  should I ever need him.

So  after some arguing with the guy who sold me the recast , and some threats about the warped scenic base , I actually showed him the pictures of the model painted and he sent me some new parts to finish out the scenic base so here is the COMPLETE  Marshal Marcus Photos , Sorry it took  so long.

So the reception of the Marcus Miniature and general hobby funds have allowed me to prep for phase 2 of the Templars 

Im waiting on the majority of these things to be delivered and a good bit of them were ordered  over the weekend so I likely wont be rushing forward till the end of the month, but here is the to do list  for the Knights of the Gold Cross 

SEASON 2

Deredo Pattern Dreadnought - ( Recast  )

5 Sword Brothers / Command Squad -Templar Brethern upgrade kit ( Recast )   Built on a Mkiii Despoiler Squad Base ( Authentic FW

5 Mkiii Bolter Crusaders - ( recasts to be built using upgrade sprue bolter bits ) 

6 CCW BP Crusaders - ( Authentic GW  and Templar Upgrade Sprue )

2 Melta Gun Special Weapon Crusaders - ( authentic gw and Templar Upgrade sprue ) 

2 Power Axe  Bolt Pistol crusaders - ( Authenic GW and Templar Upgrade Sprue) 

1 Quad Mortar and 2 gunners  -  (authentic FW kit )  

This should be enough to keep me relatively busy. 

Moving forward we are probably looking at 1 more quad mortar  an Ironclad and 10 more neophytes but that will likely be for season 3 

As always remember 
" The marked wulf may stalk  you  across the stars , but far worse is the knight chained to that beast. For we are the fury  , we wield the blade of the faithful , and should you  slip  past the Jaws of the wulf , you will be torn apart on  the sword of the knight.  For the Emperor Wills it. " - Marshal Marcus
