Accompanying Notes

The inspiration for these Sisters of Battle came from some amazing hand sculpted infantry models I found way back in 2011. It never occurred to me to tackle SoB before that, but after taking in some of the ultra-dark gothic lore I was hooked. Of course, infantry is only half the equation, and it wasn’t until a couple of years later that equally lovely tanks appeared on the scene. For this army, I wanted to take the scenic base idea first used in my Blood Angels, and improve my painting and the level of detail. Some of the bases work better than others, but overall I’m pretty pleased with the way it turned out.

If anyone wants a rolling cathedral of their own, Speedhump on Thingiverse has modelled his own version and uploaded it.

Accompanying Notes

Started around 2012, this is the first army I tried out miniature dioramas for the basing. The dioramas keep things interesting from a modelling and painting perspective, and it’s as least as satisfying as painting the miniatures themselves. I learned a few leasons while creating these bases, and the painting is not as polished as my later Sisters of Battle, but it’ll do! I can’t remember what army list I was working to, but it’s certainly not a useable force as it stands now. I need to add a few more units and formations in the future.
