Primaris Mantis Warriors (and other things...)

Recommended Posts

Been a visitor to the site for a bit and have never done a log before.
I posted these over in the White Scars forum but decided to make an official post.

Picked up the Primaris Marine half of a box set and figured I'd have a go painting my 1st Marine Army.
I'm not new to the hobby but have never done a painted Marine army before.

 

After finding a single Mantis Warrior I painted for 2nd Edition. (yes I'm old) I decided they were going to be it.
Here he is with New Brother and an old friend

 I'm trying to do a unit a week, but life happens.  Lets see where this goes...

Started with Intercessor Squad

Also, I haven't decided how these will be based.. so brown placeholders for now

Next up the Inceptor Squad (or Fwooosh Marines) and I like the gun shields

Looking good man, very striking combination of colours here. The primaris faceplates look sick in the Mantis Warrior scheme.

 

Please let there be a giant Katana style power sword on one of your future Primaris characters :)

Thanks guys...  I'm actually enjoying working on these after I found the exact green I was looking for.

Last guy in the 'finished' so far is the Ancient

I wish the skull wasn't in the center of the banner.
The odd spacing is because if I had worked the letters into it they'd be the MAhIIS Warriors
