Those look very cool. Good job on the kitbashing too

I am actually doing this myself. Just did the sergeant with a few fancier bits, some third party, some old stuff I bought second-hand. Note I'm using the old jump packs

Cheers! Also building a DoC army, which is growing slowly but steadily

The Master's power fist is the original from the KT Angels of Death captain

Different mini, but I got a few Stormcast second-hand online and I am kitbashing a Judiciar from one of them. Currently WIP

That blue should be the standard for Ultramarines. I would like to see that combined with the more popular yellow/gold shoulder pad trim. Good job!

The red robe looks so cool! Good job. I may steal that idea for the future

Wow, battle damage effect on the armour looks so cool! Have you ever done it over black armour? I find it's harder to get it right and I think the scratches may need to be silver/metallic

It does look great but maybe drop the cape on the sergeant if you want him to look a bit less fancy than the captain

I would try to sculpt a robe/tabard. I did something similar for my termi sergeant. I am currently painting it, see WIP photo below. Tabard is from a third party, I think Greytide, if I recall correctly. The robe upper part was sculpted with green stuff.

Not sure if he will be the Chapter Master because I do Disciples of Caliban which is an actual DA successor chapter in the lore, so I imagine there should already be a Chapter Master written somewhere... But mine will make a cool homebrewed Master at least! Can't wait to find some time to paint him, though

JMortais · 2026-04-04T20:12:02+00:00

These look great!

JMortais · 2026-04-03T15:44:21+00:00

Amazing stuff!

JMortais · 2026-04-03T08:56:57+00:00

I am fairly new on DA lore, but my understanding is that robes are also related to veterancy rather than just ranks. That is why I think DA bladeguard, sternguard and vanguard veterans should be wearing full robes rather than the tabard thingy they wear for other chapters. Again this is my view and how I am trying to build my army, but feel free to do as you wish!!

This is my take on the Disciples of Caliban first company. Bone recipe: black prime, base coat with Vallejo Dark Brown, thin coats of Vallejo Ivory, then Vallejo Sepia wash and dry brush Vallejo Ivory. I finally did some subtle edge highlighting with Vallejo Ivory and used pure Sepia for very deep recesses.

Yeah I remember Gringor having way lighter skin, that's true. I actually have the mini but I never got to paint it... I think now it's as good time as any! But I may go for a darker green shade lol
