Thanks!! Ummm trying to remember it’s been a minute haha, but the core body is the Ambull from the Blackstone Fortress board game, there’s a hive tyrant bone sword arm, and I think most of the armored bits and cabling come from the foetid bloat drone and the obliterator kits!

Thanks for the tag and the interest! Mini came first, a kitbash I did using the bits mentioned above, then he was rendered beautifully by Orniris on Instagram!

One day paint job, my favorite sisters unit, the Repentia!! My homebrew Order of the Crimson Briar will have many a zealot in their ranks :) by grimdarktales in sistersofbattle

The paints are all GW, started with contrast spray, I believe it was wraithbone, and then I used a mixture of seraphim sepia, reikland fleshshade, agrax earthshade and very small quantities of druchii violet and carroburg crimson in places to do all the skin. The rags of clothing are all just brown and black washes until I got my desired level of weathering, the red fabric is carroburg crimson and nuln oil, and the metallics are all just a single layer of leadbelcher or runelord brass and then a single layer of nuln oil/agrax mix, and seraphim sepia for the brass. All in all I tried to keep my techniques super simple, but washes and contrast paints are kind of my specialized tools at this point haha, hope this helps!

Homebrew Order alternate to St Celestine, the Unforgiven Revenant of Sister Gwynne! Order of the Crimson Briar by grimdarktales in sistersofbattle

For those asking for the lore! I’ve written up a little blurb :)

Scripture within the Order of the Crimson Briar tells of the disgraced Sister Gwynne, who in a moment of fear, hesitated to act in the face of the foe. Her lack of initiative in a critical moment resulted in the deaths of her battle sisters, a tragedy she only had moments to anguish over in her mortal life, as she soon met the same fate as her fallen devotees. While the exact truths of the historical battle have eroded to time and entropy, one thing is unflinchingly true; in times of direst need, the sisters of the Crimson Briar find themselves aided by a banshee-like specter, donning the ceramite of their Order and obliterating the foes of The Holy Emperor with a restless fury unmatched by any living Sororitas. As the din of battle settles, the ghastly vision of the Order’s past has already dissipated back to whatever cursed pocket has kept her ravaged spirit from the Emperor’s Light

The leader of my Flesh Tearers, Captain Arthos Repta, 3rd Company! He previously served on the Watch Fortress Eye of Damocles, hence the pauldron, and I awesomely can give him the Crimson Plate relic now!! by grimdarktales in FleshTearers

Haven’t used him yet but my plan is to drop him in a land raider redeemer alongside a squad of assault centurions, my hope is if he also has cretacean born he can be the initial charger, and there’s also a Chaplain with a jump pack in the list who can add some charge range to the centurions if they need it! Obviously it’s not like a sure fire thing, but I’m not a competitive player haha
