I was thinking about space marine husbandry, specifically chaos marine husbandry, and I got to thinking: What are some places on Earth that marines would be "native" to? For example, I think that the Emperor's Children would call Las Vegas home, and likely a whole lot of Nevada as a whole. My favourite Stinky Boys, the Death Guard, would probably be at home in the great Pacific garbage patch. But where would the World Eaters call home? What about the loyalist Astartes? Would the Salamanders have California, solely because Fire Season, or would they take somewhere else? Anyone else wanna weigh in on this?
Made some loyalist Space Marine cross stitch patterns. Many of them are untested, I can't guarantee they work. But the idea was for them to fit into an 8cm hoop with 18ct aida.
There isn't enough grimdark crafting!
Space Wolves, Dark Angels, Salamanders, Iron Hands, Ultramarines, White Scars, Blood Angels, Raven Guard, Imperial Fists
In celebration of Asmodai's rebirth as a Primaris I drew my beloved chaplain in all his glory. Behold the Master of Repentance!
(The color version will be available later.)
It's been a while since I last drew a space marine for myself. It feels nice. All it took was an evening of crafting a Deathwatch character.
Lyseri Salos's my Blood Drinkers Sanguinary Priest who may or may not be rather gullible, believe in in-universe conspiracy theories, and has the mental profile of "stressed airhead".
BTW if you've got any in-universe conspiracy theories that a space marine might believe, give them to me.
My first time working with Oil paints to make marines!
These guys were done over the course of many many months. Simply due to needing the oil paints to dry.
Honestly it was an interesting medium to paint with. I'll definitely try to cut my turpentine with some water next time so it isn't stripping my base layer haha.
This was a very nice project in the end tho and I'm happy I did those decals in the end.
