I've written about this before, but I love the Praetorian Guard of the Imperial Guard, nay Astra Militarum. I'm day dreaming about playing them again but they are in various states of stripped paint, waiting for fresh primer and a coat of paint. Annnndddd rebasing. I took a brief break from painting my Wolves for the LVO to do a quick repaint on one of my troopers. I'm hemming and hawing over the perfect color pallet for these guys but i think this is going to be the final paint choice. Hull Red and Heavy Red for the blouse. Heavy Blue + black for the trousers.  Administratum Grey for the helm and gear. WWII Russian Uniform for the Las gun. Heavy Yellow for the eppilets. Man, those guys seem so tiny compared to the new scale of 40k models. #Warhammer40k #miniaturepainting #astramilitarum #praetorianguard #imperialguard

Another Space Wolf Erradicator, ready for the hunt!  #astartes #spacewolves #vlkafenryka #erradicators #warhammercommunity #spacemarines40k #spacewolves40k 

I just finished this Sergeant for my Space Wolf Erradicators unit and I'm pretty happy with how he turned out!  He's one of the new additions to my army for the LVO. #spacemarines40k #astartes #spacewolves #spacewolves40k #vlkafenryka #erradicators #warhammercommunity

Here's a Gladiator Lancer I've nearly finished for my home-brew Space Marine Chapter,  the Rampant Lions.  I don't think I like the green on green port holes. Maybe red? #Warhammer40k #spacemarines #astartes #spacemarines40k #gladiatorlancer 

  The single best unit in every Space Marine army is the Infiltrator squad. The ability to block 12-inches (up to 24") of enemy deep strikes prevents untold amount of points from being scored by your opponent. My Infiltrators typically don't leave my deployment zone and just screen my home objective and backfield. Those pesky units that like to pop up within 3" and steal your home objective can't. Infiltrators have become a little pricey and are currently 100 points. Their guns are almost useless because they are heavy, but they come with a free helix gauntlet for a handy feel-no-pain. I bring at least one unit in every battle. #Warhammer40k #spacemarines #astartes #spacemarines40k #infiltrators

The Tale of Four Gamers and @arbitorian have been talking about my favorite historical war from the future, the Badab War.  My army ADD keeps getting the best of me, but I intend on painting more of my Salamander collection in the Badab War camouflage scheme. The TOFGs are starting off with Kill Team, but I'm going for a fill 2K. #tofg #tofgbadab #Warhammer40k #spacemarines #astartes #salamanders40k #warhammercommunity #oldhammer #roguetrader #badabwar
