These are my Sisters, I've come to this combination of parts after much consideration. It's what I've always wanted my Sisters to look like, I hope others in this forum will find this thread useful for conversions.

This will be a modest army, to start. I'm aiming for a handful of Battle Sister squads, some Seraphim, Dominion and Retributors with Celestine, Gemini and some ministorum priests. All the models are Raging hero bodies with Grishnak heads and packs, the larger Terminator sized Retributors have heads from the Repressor kit. I've started by base coasting almost everything in Molotow Chrome with an airbrush. The first pass does have a grainy look to it but smooths out on the second coat.

Really looking forward to painting these as the scheme is pretty simple, the chrome paint gets me 80% there and then it's just white & red fabrics and some red on the weapons. Hope you enjoy and thanks for looking! Any and all C&C welcome.

Raging Heros kickstarter (TGGK2) and Grishnak Miniatures. Both are pretty well covered in the alternative sisters section. I believe the RH models are starting to become available now, but the ones pictured above in particular should be available at the end of the year from recent updates.

Emperor above don't I know it. If I was more patient I would have waited for the metal versions of the Seraphim / Icariates, the wings were such a horror to secure. Most are pinned (not by choice).

I like the dynamic poses.

Wolf Scout- Catachan barking toad eggs+ Thousand Sons Marine= Fun! (Wolves of Catachan)
Sisters of Battle+ Fenrisian Beer- Inhibitions- Sanity= Trouble! (Order of the Blazing Heart Rocket Punch Pimp Magnet She-Wolf)

Reasons to use the Steel Crusaders ('Codex: Space Marines' supplement): Because you think giving Sternguard Veterans a heavy bolter wtih special issue HEAVY BOLTER ammunition is ALMOST as much fun as shoehorning an Earthshaker cannon into a Land Raider.

Reasons to use the Iron-hearted Angels ('Codex: Blood Angels' supplement): Because you think the Librarian Dreadnought needs Furious Charge AND It Will Not Die to beat down a Chaos-worshiping punk and his Defiler, while a Stormraven needs a Vanquisher cannon to beat down this punk's Heldrake.

Nearly done with Celestine and the Seraphim...

Next up, Battle Sister Squads, followed by Dominion, then some old skool Elites to lead the new recruits. Hope you like them!

I'd love to see one of these with a thin black ink over the bare metal armor. Let it sink into the depths of the miniature and bring out the inherent contrast. Right now I just get too much "unpainted reaction".

The gold is fantastic; care to share your method?
