I dread to think what heinous crime an Ultramarine must commit to be banished to the Eye Of Terror. Did you turn left instead of right on the parade ground? Forget to say your prayers in the morning? (Warsmith Honsou the half-breed speeking to Captain Uriel: Book Dead sun, Black Sky) :unsure:

 

The model look good, but are you going to paint gold over the yellow now??? since the second company change???

 

Yep more photos would be welcome.

Awww... Thanks guys. The reason that he is yellow instead of gold, is that he was the captain of the Second Company just after the Tyrannid Invasion of Ultramarr. After His "fall", the boys in blue deleted any mention or record of His existance and altered the heraldry to the gold that we see now.

 

That was the fluff. Realistically, it was waay back when GW only really had Ultras on the marine model boxes, and then they were yellow pads. Since it was so easily recognised I went for that. With the Battle of Maccrage set I read the background and most importantley the painters comments and it sitteded better.

 

With 15 pages of background I am well settled to REALLY irritate any TO over here in Sydney, australia. And I have done so too..

 

I have a few in progress pics of Tempy, as well as a few more of him. More when i get the time.. but untill then.. more of the Renegades of Ultramarr!! :P

I must say that is one of the coolest and most original armies I have ever seen, though its hardt obelieve that Ultramarines would form a Chaos army, but you make it pretty convincing, nice Job :)

Well....interesting. Although I must say that I will forever hate you for doing that to the proud warriors of Ultramar. Niice conversions and painting though. But still...Of all the chapters you could have done that to...Ultramarines? Well, if it was up to me, I would have made them Dark Angels. And not just because they are my most-hated chapter. Then again, SW wouldnt have been a bad idea....A huge furry Daemon-Wolf. Just a thought.

as I see more pics I like this army more and as chronos said about ultramarines going renegade well just look at this

 

Uriel ventris and Pasanius(sp?) got banished to the warp for joining with the ordo xenos or something for a mission, marneus got in a hissy fit(probably because he wanted to go and be cool with the deathwatch) so banished them to the warp and gave them a death mission, being in the warp for such a long period of time may make some of lesser will turn chaosy

 

I think it makes a lot of sense, they took a wrong turn on the parade ground, marneus banished them, they went chaosy and they are cool to boot!!

 

sry if i'm stealing anyones thunder here I just wanted to share that

Fallen Ultra-Marines? Brother Captain. Target planet for Exerminatus.

 

hehehe...

 

Very good work. That deamon prince would be a huge fire magnet. I may dislike chaos, and 90% of the chaos models and painting I've seen, but that looks very well done.

Yeah, I know. But I thought they were metal. Well, Obviously not...

 

Can anyone get the part code on that, as it doesn't come seperately on the webstore?

;) Thanks again guys for the comments.

I'm in australia, so I had to buy a LOTR Fell beast to get the wings for the Prince. As you can see in the W.I.P. it is a fiddle, but in the end well worth the effort.

 

Why did I make em fall? Well I liked the idea of renegades, so I was going to do Red Corsiars of different chapters. But after three squads there was very little in the way of a theme. I was looking towards a coherent look on the table, and havign one of your best mates a person who gives painting lessons at the local hobby shop sort of inspires you to get the right look. I settled on the concept of a Renegade Company, as I had done some study of ancient Rome. I remembered that the Legions were fiercly loyal to their generals, so I wondered what would happen if a Company Commmander was off on a Crusade and was asked to return for some imagined breach of rules or something.. You see where im going.

 

Fire magnet?? Ohh hell yeah!! The big three day tournament I took the ladz to, the kill score for Tempestus was horrendous. Three Tacticle Units, One Death Guard Squad, Two Command Squads, One Librarian, Three Masters (Captains same thing), A Leeman Russ Battle Tank, two Imperial Guard Squads and a Command Section. Was a big weekend that time!! ;) :wub:

 

Also I have given him a "Personal Icon" so I can gate in the 8 Bloodletters from Him. Between those two.. mmmmm. Best moment so far? Sydney Grand Tournament 05. 20 Black Legion Marines, Tempy and 8 Bloodletters. People went past commenting on the wings covering the whole battle, and that there as going to be a blood bath. Next turn there was Tempy and 3 Bloodletters. ;)

 

There are some more pics I need to do, but I have to borrow the camera. this year our club is raising the points limit, so I have added im a Unit of Plaguebearers. I can't tell you all how long it takes to put together a few marines, so I have reached the limit of the actual CSM. Tho there are a few left to paint ( isn't there always?), I am waiting to get the Plastic Terminaters Chaos set when it eventually gets released.

 

Anyway, please enjoy the pics. I will get some more done soon. Oh, as I mentioned I have won a few things. Best Army x 2, Best Painted x 2, Best Comp, Players Choice, and placed 6th out of 52 at the Sydney GT in 2005.

 

All in all I am happy with them - all I wanted when I started was somethign that I could call my own.. Something those of you who doubt yourselves should ponder on. We are all better than what we think. ;)

That's hilarious, and well done. I bet that'll raise some eyebrows at tournaments, or maybe that's the point. :P

And it does; the number of times I've heard whispers of "You seen that renegade Ultramarine army?" and "I want Nigel's babies" at tournaments is astounding :D

 

Seriously though, this army is an absolute pleasure to see in person, and has taken home its fair share of Best Army awards if memory serves :rolleyes:

 

You going to the Sydney GT this year, Temp? I'm still umm-ing and ahh-ing...granted it's only a week away, so I'd better make up my mind soon...
