New Space Marine Custom Chapter Test Model

This is a test model for my new custom Space Marine chapter, the Rampant Lions. I'd like the idea of "space knights" and I want to lean into the imagery from Arthurian legend with more banners, flags, etc. I'll post more fluff about the chapter as I flush it out.

Honestly, I'd rather paint more Astral Claws but they were wiped out before Primaris marines were introduced and I don't want to break fluff just to play with the new models. Frankly, Primaris marines are mostly better choices as game pieces but it seems apocryphal to add the new models and I can't bring myself to do it. It's a fictional future, but damn it, there are rules!

I like the green, silver, and gold combination as a color scheme. I'd love to add more checkers, but I'm not as adapt at painting them as I'd like but practice will make perfect.

Let me know what you think!

2024 ITC Rankings

Judging by my win-loss record, I've had a terrible year playing Warhammer 40k. Needless to say, I'm flabbergasted at the final rankings of the 2024 ITC season. What?!? I placed in the bottom 10% at the LVO; I placed even worse than players who dropped out after 3 games, so I'm not sure how those points and placings are tabulated, nor how season points are calculated but I'm in the 2,000s for the USA rankings? One bonus though, I'm the top "Dusty" in the world.

Las Vegas Open Results

I had a blast in the Warhammer 40k Champs at the Las Vegas Open. I went with my buddy, Kyle and slugged it out for 3 days of gaming, big crowds, and casino food. Here are a few pics from the event. I only went 1-5 in the Champs and 1-1 in the Sunday RTT but it was still a great weekend of playing games. Two of my losses were a combined 5 points and I felt so close to having a .500 weekend. Pro tip: Thunder wolf cavalry are tough to play in GW/WTC/Frontline terrain maps. You end up bottlenecked in your own table half. I was my own wolf jail... I'm a little embarrassed by my score, but I learned quite a bit and I think I'm going to focus on my silver Space Marines or Orks for the next year. #Warhammer40k #lvo2025 #spacewolves40k
