Invitational III: Part 2

by Lassi

Continuing with the third Iron Sleet Invitational. We are amazed and humbled of the amount of extraordinary entries you have produced. You guys have completely hit it out of the ballpark imagining and visioning the derelict corridors and mighty explorers of the space hulk The Primogenitor.

In addition to email, we also asked people to post their entries on Instagram by tagging them with #theprimogenitor and #ironsleetinvitational. This batch of deep void travelling goodness is from there, so enjoy and make sure you check their other work there too!

Wanderers of the Ancient Primogenitor, stalking, delving, Captain Amatore IV's voidborn corsairs gamble their lives away in their hunt for valuables forgotten and ancient in the maze of impossible structures, ever so treacherous and mutable. . Comprised by the forgotten and the lost, a crew with no past and no future, forsaken by Imperium, untouched by the ruinous powers. On their own and with themselves. . Their cloaks a retelling of their individual lives, exploits and aspirations, embroidered in an abstract language of shapes and rythms. Perhaps the only memory of their existance when the moment comes and each of them is inevitably lost to the Primogenitor. . . . . . . . . . . These miniatures are my submission for the Iron Sleet invitational. First time I've taken part in a community event like this, and also one of the first projects I'll be uploading to this account. I'll be posting some individual shots of the members of the warband in the next few days. . . . #inq28 #blanchitsu #grimdark #wh40k #inq #inquisimunda #necromunda #conversion #kitbash #minipainting #paitingwarhammer #theprimogenitor #ironsleetinvitational #theprimogenitorsubmission #inq28th

The Pa'Gur. I made these for the @ironsleet #theprimogenitor invitational, but didn't finish the group because when I sat down to make the third one I ended up making The Duke of Namorra instead. I pictured these creatures like hermit crabs where the hulk inhabits the dead remains of bodies on board the vessel. Machine inhabits nature type of thing. I also based the two on the classic factions of the original space hulk game with the goal of transforming a terminator and genestealer into something completely new. I plan to build out more of these in the future, as I bought a whole bag of Tau pauldrons. This hobby is a funny thing sometimes. . . . #grimdark #inq28 #kitbashing #convertingwargammer #warhammer40k #spacehulk #paintingwarhammer

Arjac Rockfist in full colors (no filters, just different lighting). Originally I wanted to make a small force to escort him on #theprimogenitor and a cool story. I’m really sorry that converting and painting him took too long. . The Rune Priest I posted earlier was a test model to set the color scheme: the last time I pained a ‘modern’ SW was about four years ago. . I think that this character, the new Ragnar and the new rules are going to push me to add some 40kish unit to my army. The BloodClaws, a Redemptor and obviously the terminator Wolf Guard are really tempting! . . . . . #arjacrockfist #vlkafenryka #spacewolves #spacemarines #adeptusastartes #rubiconprimaris #truescalespacemarine #wh40k #warhammer40k #warhammer #warhammerpainting #paintingwarhammer #kitbash #forgeworld #inq28 #blanchitsu #oilpainting #ironsleetinvitational

It’s been a chaotic few months with uni and the disruption from the coronavirus pandemic putting hobby life on hold, but I’m proud to present – just in time – the Birds of Rhiannon kill-team, thirteenth Broadsword Clade of the First Legion, for @ironsleet . . Unable to refuse Roboute Guilliman’s gift of Primaris reinforcements, yet bound to keep the Dark Angels’ secrets, Supreme Grand Master Azrael organizes his Primaris Astartes into surgical kill-teams known as Broadsword Clades. Venturing into and beyond the Cicatrix, they are set loose upon a harsh, unforgiving galaxy, taking on the monsters dredged from the darkest corners of mankind’s nightmares wherever they may be found. . The Thirteenth Clade bears the honour of being the first of such errant war bands to assault the looming, emergent Space Hulk known as the Primogenitor. Led by the Headhunter Peredur Bright Sword, warded by the witching auspices of the warlock Gwydion Weeping Eye, the Birds of Rhiannon kill-team set foot amidst the rotting corpse-muck and muddied micro-climates of the leviathan vessel. . They will be the Imperium’s bright and burning blade in the dark. Unmarked, unrecorded, unremembered, they will wage their wars in the name of the Carrion Emperor. They will raise high the serried banner of the Dark Angels within forgotten orlops, and bear proudly their adopted heraldry under the light of nameless stars, never knowing the truth from which they have been cast away. . Few, if any, will return. . #warhammer #warhammer40k #paintingwarhammer #blanchitsu #primaris #spacemarines #convertingwarhammer #inq28 #necromunda #killteam #adeptusastartes #kitbash #40k #paintingwarhammer40k #wh40k #darkimperium #gamesworkshop #warhammer40000 #darkangels #firstlegion #ironsleetinvitational #theprimogenitorsubmission

  2. Once more an incredible amount of work from you girls and guys! Miniatures, drawings, collages and wonderfully evocative stories about the Primogenitor being brought to life by a great community.

    Stunning and deeply humbling to see and read! Hell yes!
