My hobbing for the day. Making use of my proxy Marine bits in the style of Sternguard Veterans.
Thank the Emperor for shoulder pads because the extra bulk from these torsos makes it a bit difficult for normal Space Marine arms to fit properly.

Unboxing Sternguard Veteran Squad Warhammer 40K Space Marines #tabletopg...

For the record, it’s hilarious that Malum Caedo, protagonist of Boltgun, is depicted as a sternguard.
Not a vanguard, the veterans first into a conflict.
But a sternguard, the guys supposed to cover a retreat.
From a game design standpoint this makes sense - vanguard are close-combat specialists while sternguard use ranged weapons, and Boltgun being a FPS with an array of guns makes a sternguard the natural choice.
But there’s something innately funny about this guy supposed to be the frosty, tactical-minded type turning out to be a high-octane one-man-rampage who apparently decides “cover the retreat” means “dive in pulling triggers until the enemy stops noticing anything else.”

Sternguard vets :>
Two squads of mkvi sternguard veterans. (I'll only buy primaris models to use the parts. I'm a mkvi corvus pattern and firstborn simp)
And lieutenant Augustinius. He is referred to as Aggu by everyone, sometimes Augo, which are Greenlandic forms of the name. He gets weirded out when he's called Augustinius.

mini of the month time!
this month's mini was a sternguard veteran, but you know me, I can't stick to a brief to save my life...
so here is a plasmagun toting, heavy bolter wielding veteran techmarine... thing!
I even tried my hand at a touch of OSL, and I don't think it was too awful!

Look, ma! White helmet.
With all the craze coming from the release of the Leviathan box set, I wanted to get in on it as well. Though, I didn't purchase the box.
The legs and the torso were bits that I purchased from Grim Dark Armory . And the rest were from the Intercessor sprues I have.
The torsos aren't a perfect fit. Funny, given that they're from the same sculptor. But, seeing the model built and painted, it's not that much of an issue.
And yeah, I was stoked on the white helmet. It's odd how the helmet was easier to paint than the tabard, which didn't get such smooth coverage.
My first Ultramarine that I painted since getting into the hobby last year.
I will next try these bits but with a Salamander. I have a power fist I've been saving for a special occasion .

Final priming of completed models.
5 Terminators, 5 Sternguard Veterans, 10 Infiltrators, Terminator Chaplain, and Phobos Lieutenant.
Annoyingly, some of the Infiltrators didn't get an even coating on like the right side of their back. So that'll have to be cleaned up with the pot.
But other than that, all models are primed.
