The watchmaster is the boss so I thought I’d spend more time on him. Not happy with gold. It lacks depth but it is what it is now.

Primaris marines were given to deathwatch by cawl, like all the other chapters. Some have been recruited in the traditional route. It’s been a couple of hundred years since they were introduced

Most of my guys are straight out of the multi part kit for them, the guy with ace is the special character from the tooth and claw box set. All have deathwatch shoulder pads for the Just with a converted auto bolt rifle. Game wise he is just a primaris watch captain.
There are 40 different shades of black, so many fortresses and ways to attack.

So why you complaining!

Great looking Tartaros termies. I'd use 'em for Horus Heresy, but you've painted them excellently. :::cheers:::

Another little update
Two weeks to go till the tournament and another 5 brothers of the long vigil done. All with storm bolters and storm shields

Wolf brother





Executioner





Hawk lord





Death Spectre





Minotaur







I've also upgraded my two biker sergeants to have storm bolters and storm shields. I mounted the shield on the bike and the storm bolter as part of the bike rather than being held.







Hope you like them. I have three guys left to paint. A captain with JP, a vanguard with 2 hand flamers and a vet with frag cannon.



And, if I have time, a display board.

Another update, the last three done,

I have enjoyed painting Deathwatch. A great blend of bulk black and silver painting and then some areas to input colour and detail to.



I have finished off this lastest upgrade for them. Two more veterans and a new, cheap, watch captain. For the captain i have gone with the relic blade and MC bolter combo. He can still kill heavy infantry and chaff easily at S6 and -3 save, the D3 damage does give him options and he hits on 2's with a re-roll. He's a simple conversion of Artemis from the start collecting box.









I used a transfer on the inside of cloak to give it some detail easily.



The last two, a Crimson fist frag cannon and a Blood Angle vanguard with two hand flamers,

They look awesome! I love the jump pack and hand flamer converting.

Death Watch stuff has been some of my favorite things to paint in a long time.

Thanks gankom. The hand flamers are actually from FW.

Cheers Vince.

This is the display board I have made for my half of a doubles tournament coming up this weekend. I've posted the list in this thread somewhere. My partner is taking Ad Mech.







the finished board, I had to cut back on the bits on it after putting my army on the top level and the need to fit the ad mech on it. He's got two battalions for his 1000pts.

That board looks fantastic. Can't wait to see it with both armies on it.

Going back a bit, how do you make the storm bolters? Are they third party? I want to add some into my own deathwatch forces at some point.
