Created an Adepta Sororitas feed, as I wanted one but couldn't find one. Use #adeptasororitas or #sistersofbattle and add it to your feeds:

I've been following a long, and I have to say, this is stellar!

Immolating the hiveworld. Immolating the xenos. Immolating all the heretics, and their filthy artifacts!

Finished Immolator, ready to do battle! Decently pleased with the finish product, though I'd redo some things.

Like, if there is a better depiction about the actual relationship between American Christian Nationalism and actual faith in God and Christ, I don't know it. These people would have bombed Bethlehem.

Completed the Daemonifuge tonight with Ephrael Stern. I'm super happy with how she turned out, though I must confess, I ran into a ton of roadblocks along the way. Second photo includes Kyganil.

I also knocked out some gaming pieces from the folks at PlayOnTabletop: some wound dials and battle shock tokens. Nothing fancy, just painted well enough to look good on the table.

I assembled and primed an Immolator a couple of days ago. Haven't started painting the main model, but I went ahead and knocked out the focal piece, the stained glass! Painstaking is an understatement!

Completed Kyganil in one sitting tonight. He was interesting, but laborious! And he's a great opportunity to freehand, as well as practice gems and faces. I'm pretty happy with the result.

Ich habe fünf weitere Sacresants gemalt! Damit ist der Trupp mit den Hellebarden nun auf voller Fraustärke!

Noch ein Infanteriemodell to go bis 2000 Punkte!

Canoness with Jump Pack finished!

Switched the purples from my discontinued Reapers to Army Painter, and I really can't tell much of a difference (exactly what I wanted).

Canoness with Jump Pack, with halberd. She has purple robes and armor of silver and bronze.

Micah Alford @malforddm.bsky.social · 10d

I just started a jump Canoness, but then I'll be down with jumps for awhile. An Exorcist and an Immolator are also staring me down...

These Zephyrim were "rescues," so to speak, purchased second-hand off of eBay. The paint was thick and sort of "slapped-on." The flight stands were in terrible shape and the models often damaged where they were attached. It's been a big process getting these restored to glory.

Micah Alford @malforddm.bsky.social · 15d

Finished the Zephyrim and the Retributor Superior. Glad to have these off the bench, as the Zephyrim in particular have been staring me down for quite some time, partially-finished. The army grows!

#adeptasororitas #wh40k #sistersofbattle #warhammer40k #warhammercommunity #paintingwarhammer #40k

First 5 Zephyrim, fully painted in purples, silver, and bronze. They each hold blue power swords. The models are based on resin stone bases with Magnet Baron flight stands.

Thanks!

Another WIP post. Lots of different stuff worked on. Got a bunch of bases prepped, did some detail work on a Retributor Superior kitbash, and did 11 power swords.

Power swords this small are hard.

#adeptasororitas #warhammercommunity #paintingwarhammer #WH40K #40K #warhammer40K #warhammer

WIP bases and Sisters of Battle models, totally 10 Zephyrim and a kitbashed Retributor Superior. Models are in shades featuring primarily purple, silver, and bronze, with blue power swords.

I had this banner bearer in my collection for years but painted as Argent Shroud, not Our Martyred Lady. As I am hopefully going to play 2nd Edition sometime soon it made sense to repaint her to match my army.

Photograph of a Sisters of Battle miniature painted in the black and red armour of the Order of Our Martyred Lady. She is holding a banner aloft that shows as saintly figure wielding a sword.
