Now I may be the local Xenos Enjoyer and Chaos Dabbler but sometimes it's nice to just paint some Space Marines

They're the start of my Phobos Strike Team!

I love all my main factions and various assorted kill teams but hot damn is it nice to paint something bigger and chunkier without much trim

(That said my Warpcoven have been in progress for over a year now... should really get back on that...)

I don’t have much in the way further wisdom but this operative is more than happy to share some with his allies.

Ansem Dalis

-Incursor Minelayer- Mentors

Though considered for a mission across the Rift to contact forces in the Imperium Nihilus, instead he was given the duty of delivering Primaris technology to Watch Station Anachron. Already acquainted with operating away from his chapter and working with advanced technology in such operations as his Chapter’s battles against The Eldar in the Golance War and the widespread operations against the Orks of Charadon, Ansem was a natural fit for the Deathwatch. Eventually undergoing the Rubicon procedure himself to better train his brothers in the function of this newly developed technology. Though his condescending demeanor often necessitates the intervention of Sgt Maro to ensure the lessons have the correct impact.

The build here had one interesting challenge where I had to adjust his arm carrying the mine so it wasn’t off the base or dragging on the ground. Since its designed for a different stance and slightly higher torso. Pretty simple to handle by angling it.

For painting it was pretty simple compared to most of the others. The chapter badge is all solid color blocks and the rest of the armor is standard. The mine was fun to paint though. I got some nice practice with contrast effects over metal. I also tried my washes to see if I had a good option for the silver Deathwatch arms but Agrax was too dirty and Anthonian camoshade looked like algae. So I’ve got some Nuln on the way to wrap those up. That’s all for today, lets get more colorful liquid talk in next time. See you then.
