I really need a better photo of all this!

Bases finished and 'feature complete' - there's a handful of small things like silver touches and one or two drybrushes I'd like to finish, but they're done. 3000pts of Death Guard.

Thanks again to @thearmypainter.bsky.social for their support!

The Saturnine Dreadnought was an absolute bear to assemble, but a blast to paint. Really enjoyed smashing out most of this with Speedpaints! Just a handful of acrylic colours finish the job. Painted with @thearmypainter.bsky.social Fanatic range and the classic Quickshade Dip.
