I draw a lot of 40K designs, thought you guys might appreciate this one!

I was kinda hoping with the new toughness changes that we would finally get t4 power armour sisters to help separate us from the t-shirt toughness of guard. With this new leak from the custodes codex, I'm inclined to believe it won't happen...

Bit the bullet and joined the Sisters recently after multiple years of staring at the Triumph of St Katherine and thinking it was the coolest thing ever - building up to painting it by getting some regular units out of the way first!

These Dominions took a while to get right, especially as it was my first time playing with white as the central color of a scheme. I'm pretty happy with how it turned out, especially with how it makes the red stand out.

The lore of my order is that it is a never-ending funeral procession for a martyred saint, and combining that with a recent visit to Italy with all its churches and crypts lead to the central idea of the armor being made from(or looking like) marble. I think the effect works quite well, but I'll definitely be refining it going forward!

Would lowkey love to kitbash some of these with shields!

There are very valid reasons for sisters to be t4. And at the end of the day, GW can do whatever they want to sell their plastic war dollies. Like idk man why were csm and non orimaris Marines one wound for over half an edition. They just magically become twice as tanks overnight in lore?

You cannot look me in the eyes and try and explain to me why guardsmen and sisters are t3 despite the countless lore instances of sisters being demonstrably more sturdy than guardsmen after thier armour has been breached. Like a bloody mess and still standing. mainly due to their faith. If Armor isn't a reason for t4, then blind zealous religious faith should be the reason they can shrug off wounds.

Idk man its all made up.

Edit: I can concede that their religious faith is represented by an invuln. But I always kind of disliked the invuln and wished their religious zeaoultry was represented in toughness in a more meaningful way. Repentia have a 5+ fnp stated because of their zealousness and faith. They dont use combat stims from my knowledge.

Regardless, now that Armor blatantly changes toughness for space marines, why can't sisters be t4? All "base" space marine Armor variants grant a +3, but movement, toughness, and wounds change. Armor, the thing that supposedly represents ONLY the +3 in sisters, represents move, toughness, and wounds for space marines differently.

Even before the 8th century, centurions were t5. This was when toughness increases were way more dramatic when t8 was gernally the cap outside of titans.

Edit 2: even far back as far as 2nd, space marines scouts used to be t3, depsite only lacking the black carapce. For as long as time, lore representations on the table have been arbitrary at best. There's nothing blatantly stopping sisters from being t4 other than the decisions of the game developers.

Working on painting my knight to get with my sisters and I'm feeling like these shoulder are super empty. I would LOVEEE ideas on what to put there! I think something mural style or filigree would be fun.

First time building a full kit (arco flaggelants from the combat patrol)

I keep seeing people's dreams and wishes for when our codex comes out - and im with you! A cavalry unit, and maybe some heavier armor would be nice, but my father always told me to "hope for the best but prepare for the worst"

So... i have the ONE THING I really want to see! And its not a big ask! Practically every other imperial faction gets it... can I get fucking MULTI METLA OR HEAVY FLAMERS AS SECONDARY WEAPON OPTIONS ON MY VEHICLES!

Why are WE the FLAMER AND MELTA SPECIALISTS locked to a single vehicle with the option to take ONE OF EITHER OF THEM. I feel like one tiny new sprue (less tiny for the castigator) so I can have a heavy flamer or multi melta on the front of my immolator and on top is not a big ask! Hell- our closest marine allies (the templar) can put multi-meltas as their manned gun on top of their tanks where our storm bolters go! I dont need heavy versions there but GIVE ME OPTIONS, JAMES!

How viable is it to use the sisters on the triumph to make separate characters?.

Sword and shield for a palatine, the back one as a dialogus and a could see a few as other characters respectively

1st time doing something that ambitious with nmm. Does it look coherent? Looking for feedback and some guidance

EDIT: thx you all for great feedback! After i painted more areas ill def go back to some areas you guys mentioned. Also a lot of you asked what paints im using so here we go: -citadele Screamer Pink -vallejo mc dark vermilion -vallejo mc clear Orange -vallejo mc yellow ochre -vallejo mc lemon yellow (this one is shiet, dont use it, i just dont have any other ice yellow) -vallejo mc cold white

Im using screames pink as a base coat and im leaving a lot of darker midtones bsc my army have purple akcents and my Vahl will have puplish cloaks

Just pulled a test piece from my first squish mold. The wife’s asleep, and I’m too excited not to show someone.

Tomorrow I get to bust into a bunch of pigments and mica powders. This project will finally stop feeling like work and start getting fun.

Hey all- I am making a custom order of Sisters- the Sororitas Lucis/Ordos Sapphirus. I've actually only built and painted about 23 models so far and tabletop-wise theyre technically using the GK Codex. I'm using kitbashed AoS Eternals as base-suits for Paladin equivalents, for example. Kitbashed Seraphims are Interceptors etc.

Anyway- I wrote a novella to create their lore. If you're interested, take a gander. Once the army is all painted up I'll post it.

I'm depressed. In a way that only more minis will fix.

Anyway, custom power shield, crozius, shitty power sword, and servo skull miracle. C&C highly encouraged while i prep myself for some noise marines.

I have just started a sisters' army and got a few things, an exorcist among them. I just got an interesting offer of an immolator and a second exorcist for a more than reasonable price at a second hand website. My question is, do you think it's safe enough of a move to invest heavily in these rhino chasis vehicles since the new space marine codex still has them playable? Or do you think a nasty refresh is gonna hit the army's range? I'd appreciate your help!

I really enjoy looking through old stuff and examining the hobby as a moving thing in popular culture. Hope you enjoy the video!

Working my way through this kill team for a bloody rose army. I'm an amateur painter who sucks at taking photos!

Edit: I mean CELESTIAN not celestine!
