About the Project
15 years in pre production reading the books way back .. After sitting on the primaris marines from the indomitus box and the leviathan box set. I've been building and putting off doing this project doing bits n bobs to it . Now with 2024 no new year old army it's finish 1000 points first . On this page I will be showing old images and show my progress this will help motivate me ( also feed the ADHD brain of mine with dopamine ?)

This Project is Active
Setting a 500points a week target of table top ready
Simple target right ?
I hope it is .
so 500 points a week most of mu units are base coated already so it’s all trim , decals , weapons then simple weathering with washes or powders .
So new year same army
Finishing the terminators and dreadnought .
using AK washes starship filth and nato dust wash on legs to look like it’s dust kicked up
Trim , decals and marble bits
Hitting the trim with storm cast gold . I wanted to add some contrast using marble so I based the parts black then stretched a dried out wet wipe .
loaded white ink I airbrushed over this .
Since October I was hunting down soul drinkers chapter symbols . No one had them 🙁 I put the project on hold , then I spotted some on Etsy praise the Architect of Change ? if you know you know .
Colour testing
Looking at the book covers the Souldrinkers have a metallic purple almost a lacquer .
I was mulling over how to do it .
Testing a silver metallic then airbrushing an LIQUITEX dark violet ink in two coats on test minis
I found the silver to be better So I've built the force
Back in 2020 I brought the indomitus box set built the marines then lost interest .
Fast forward to 2023 December I unearthed my old Souldrinkers novels and boom inspired .
Ordered leviathan then built everything 🙂
