So I was wondering how much I'd managed to complete so far for the SSE, turns out it's quite a bit.

From front to back, left to right we have

3 company commanders, a missile launcher HWT, a Mortar HWT, a hellhound and 2 tauros venators. Then 5 infantry squads, 2 Tarantulas, a taurox and a Sabre platform.

3 hq, 3 fast attack, 4 heavy support, 5 troops choices.

I've still got 3 unpainted troop squads, 2 platoon commanders, a special weapons squad and another Sabre to paint!

The secret is that I’ve been adding UV reactive paint to my GSC models! starting with some fluorescent white to the eyes and teeth, some orange on the lamps and eventually lenses and visors, I may even go so far as to use it as a regular accent color here and there utop some darker orange or tattered white on vehicle markings or something!

End Goal? Incorporate some battery-powered black light LEDs into my terrain for the next round of additions. Should be a good time!

Two test schemes done for the Breakers of Thrones, Black Legion Warband.

Still tweaking the scheme and heraldry.

Didn't finish the snipers, but did get these done.

Now with a fuel tank. It's not perfect, but it's good for me and enough for the gaming table

It's taken a while longer than I'd hoped due to work, but they're now done. My 3 lascannon HWT

And another 5 almost done. Hopefully these 15 will be touched up and good to add to the rest of the painted models by the weekend

I'm away on holiday with the family at the moment, but have still managed to get some time in to do the majority of another squad. It would've been totally finished had I not forgotten the silver! 🙄

That's the second of the tauros venators all painted and ready. Now to order and get the third one done...

WIP from the other night. Death comes for all those who wear a crown. Breakers of Thrones, Black Legion Warband.

Some more progress on the army, this time a missile launcher heavy weapons squad. These, the mortars, and the Sabre platform give me 3 fully painted slots for my battalion, it's slow but steady progress, and I'm really pleased with how my paintings developing

A platoon commander for the SSE, built and painted on a Friday evening

The Emperor sent us out defenceless whilst he knew what dwelt beyond the stars. Horus would have had us die to sate his vainglory. No more.

Colour test for the Breakers of Thrones, Black Legion Clan.

7 more guardsmen painted, minus a couple of backpacks and a lasgun
