Yeah! I don't paint the sons of Ultramar often, but they do have a great look.

Two of my first models next to two of my most recent. I'm not near any awards but I feel like I'm getting better #warhammer #warhammer40k #paintingwarhammer #minis #minipainting #warhammercommunity #painting #spacemarine #ultramarines

First terminator and first beaky helmet! Still need basing. Building a proper army for the first time too! Love both these models, but I might be addicted to termies now. Send help. #warhammer #warhammer40k #paintingwarhammer #minis #minipainting #warhammercommunity #painting #spacewolves

Might be the best 5 bucks I spend each month. Military history without jerking it over guns, plus cum jokes.

Same here! Using some 40k orks to play with some bright colors, giving them hot pink boots and bright orange armor bits.

Working on Orks for the first time. Love them! I feel like they give me permission to get weird and do fun things. They're fancy boyz, need a good basing scheme still. Suggestions welcome! #warhammer #warhammer40k #paintingwarhammer #minis #minipainting #warhammercommunity #orks #painting #waaagh!

Ork mini from Warhammer. His color scheme is supposed to be silly and fun.

Another angle of my fancy boy. My oldest kid helped with the posing of this little fella.

the only way they could be clearer is by opening every single book they publish with a note that the Imperium is the absolute worst and cruelest government that has ever existed anywhere and life inside it is a ceaseless nightmare for close to 100% of its inhabitants

If you come to a Games Workshop event or store and behave to the contrary, including wearing the symbols of real-world hate groups, you will be asked to leave. We won't let you participate. We don’t want your money. We don’t want you in the Warhammer community

Done with my first Black Templar, loved painting these guys. And yes the Neophytes have weird hair so the one on the right got frosted tips. #warhammer #warhammer40k #paintingwarhammer #minis #spacemarine #blacktemplar #minipainting #warhammercommunity

Your sound effects over the censored bit were really funny, 10/10

Almost done with my first 10 Black Templar, going to base with rocky, grassy terrain. Hoping the green grass will be a nice contrast for the red. Anybody else painting something new? #warhammer #warhammer40k #paintingwarhammer #minis #spacemarine #blacktemplar #minipainting #warhammercommunity
