Mard's SoB Journey

Recommended Posts

Hi Guys
Avatar and allegiance changed!

So I've decided to wade back into regular 40k with my long time love the sisters of battle.

Now I used to have these ladies back in my 2nd ed teenage days and after a trip to my folks I've found the shoebox they used to live in. After a wonderful Dettol bath and scrub they are ready for a new paintjob and a step into the modern game world.
Can you imagine this used to be 1500pts?

Is this still a legal Canoness? The new(ish?) ones seem pretty different.

I'll be jumping on ebay hunting for Rhinos to match/Immolators as well as more troops. Going to be a complete noob for a while rebuilding this army into something modern, so please forgive me for many, many questions I'll be asking while building this project.




Also my main system is still epic, which is going through a resurgence in Australia at the moment, so I'll be re-creating the force in both Epic scale with some dalliances into BFG as well.

First test scheme and 40k mini for scale

So it was pouring rain yesterday so I wasn't able to go outside and undercoat anything major, so while watching Netflix I managed to work on a few small epic things.

Objective markers in Epic play a major role and though a token can suffice I always like to do something in theme with the army.
So here are two out of my three objectives, both still a WIP

The first one is the remains of a shrine to some forgotten imperial saint, I still need to source some kind of tiny green tufts for this one, or i may have some sisters or Inquisitor in need of aid.

The second is a Death watch retrieval team in need of extraction, I'm still working on the doors for the rhino so currently they are missing.

A couple of quick updates, I didn't get too much done as I was running around all weekend sorting out Xmas shopping, wrapping and seeing Star Wars.

Test Repressor (Still working on all my Rhino chassis doors)

Also, when in doubt and you need to deal with bigger nasties (Titans, larger Tyranids, Daemons) Just add MORE FIRE!

I'm hoping to slap some paint on my 40k gals this week, time permitting, and definitely the same paint scheme.
Just sourced another old school Immolator from a friend, now to keep hunting more gals and maybe an exorcist or two.

Double posting Is the worst, I know.

I've even managed to undercoat the 28mm girls, so stay tuned for them soon!


 

Edit: Forgot to add my Repressor test

Looks good! However, that picture of the Sister next to the EPIC scale models just made me think of what films might be shown in the 41st Millenium.

Attack of the 60 foot Sororitas!, perhaps? laugh.png
