"The horniest battle brothers" isnt something we hear every day

[duartegomes]

Still waiting for my sharky bois, the Carcharodons

[xxSeanVxx]

He looked so chaos before the paint job but somehow the clean look once painted brought him back.
In any case he looks amazing!

That freehand drag on the pouldron is epic. Some mad skillz on show there.

[doiroco]

The only good thing mondays have is a new EOB video <3

[bloodfox]

You have helped me get past my fear of painting thanks

[alienatedpoet]

"Space marines you never heard of" Me who read Firedrake last month and reading Nocturne now: "You fool!"

[oneeyedhivemind]

For a moment I was terrified you were going to take apart one of those beautiful Hormagaunts for its claws. Yes, please give those beautiful models some love

[AshenXr]

The Death of Antagonis is such a great book and the short story A tribute of flesh really drives home how cool these Sons of Vulkan are! I’m definitely going to take the paint mixture and apply it to some Jump bois! Cheers!

So basically the blacksheep kid to the salamanders good kid. Nice.

[euansmith]

What a fantastic looking mini. The conversion work is a lot of fun, and the freehand chapter icon is amazing.

[garthantash]

The Black Dragons are blessed by the Emperor with the most blessed being the Dragon Claws. Back in 5th edition, I converted and painted about 2500pts of Black Dragons after I had about 2500pts of Minotaurs chapter. I used a lot of the dragon icons off of Dark Elf Corsairs for chapter symbols and icons on vehicles.

Well if you’re doing the 21st cursed founding here’s a chapter I think are badass but the grey knights and inquisition are just jealous pricks. The Flame Falcons or the Phoenix Brethren a chapter of loyal marines who worship the god emperor and adhere to the codex Astartes. They have many honors but then their “flaw/buff” developed. In the heat of battle or just an especially devoted moment the marines would burst into a purifying flame, all marines even librarians and dreadnoughts would burst into flame during battle, the flame purged the hell out of chaos and didn’t harm the marines. But one day when they returned to their home world the grey knights were there and slaughtered most of the chapter before being declared renegade. About 30 scouts and marines survived with a good amount of their gene-seed. They then saved a small sector of space and called it home. The civilians and even other space marine chapters help them out because they’re so damn nice. Eventually they secretly joined in a crusade to drive back chaos but they began bursting into their holy flame once more alerting their presence to the inquisition. The sector and some chapters attempted to slow down the inquisition allowing for the Flame falcons now the phoenix brethren to escape on a battle barge gifted to them by a dark angel successor. Their whereabouts are unknown since then, but I believe there still out their kicking chaos’s ass in purifying flame and worshiping the God emperor of mankind. They’re a very badass underrated chapter of marines.

The black dragons are quite excessively cool, and that is an awesome mini.
I've always fantasized about kitbashing an eyes of the emperor custodes army, boing full Blanchian with crazy bionics and ragged cloaks.
Then I realize I suck at kitbashing, and get on with my life.
We need more eyes of the emperor in the world, they are the single coolest thing about the custodes yet they have zero lore and no models.

[KraikLockheart]

So excited to see the rest of this series! Really loved the founding chapters and looking forward to the successors!

[DiggerPrints]

Such a simple paint job that looks amazing. This would be one epic army.

[Dangerpurple]

90% of "you've never seen/heard of" videos on youtube are about stuff that everyone has heard of, or at least I have.

And this video, is no exception, but it is still really cool to see someone actually making them

[MooreGaming]

Awesome Miniature! Wish I could paint my minis like that.

[noblereflex]

I love the loyalist chapters who fly so close to the sun. Black Dragons, charcarodonts, white scars. Though i do also enjoy the Salamanders UMs and IFs

[willmuckel]

I love the Black Dragons because of the conversion possibilities and the easy paint scheme. You did a great job. I’ve done several conversions in which I’ve sculpted scales and horns. It’s a lot of work. But after seeing yours I need Tyranid bits.
