The Emperor Protects ~ Adepta Sororitas ~ A Sisters of Battle Project

REPENT

*****

FINALLY!!! Everything is fully assembled & base coated at last & here is the final few models of goodness to round off the first stage of my Sororitas army. I’ll start with this beast, the Penitent engine. Who is about to knock all the candles over in the temple & fall down the emperors stairs, but with luck he will smite some heretics on the way.

As soon as I got this awesome base I knew I wanted to stagger candles on each level & add a couple more skulls so I did just that. I’m really pleased with how it turned out.

ARCO FLAGELLANTS

*****

Not pronounced flatulence like I keep enjoying calling them, these three gribbly boys were simple to assemble & I didn’t feel deserved any extra basing goodness. The emperors light does not shine on the heretic therefore they will have no candles for being the naughtiest of boys. Yes!

REPENTIA

*****

I’ve got to say I absolutely adore these models. I realise they got a bit of flack for being uber muscular on the weekender but to me they look bloody lovely. Plus how’s about that whip on the Superior. That lengthy bad boy is gonna snap off quicker thanI can say FOR THE EMPEROR! I added a couple of candles & skulls to her base but left them off the Repentia themselves. They will only receive the emperors basing extras after they atone for their misdeeds.

CANONESS

*****

Last but not least the Canoness. It was probably just me but wow was this model an absolute arse to put together. The giant collar & cloak had such big gaps they needed a London Underground warning over a telecom MIND THE GAP! So I made a mess of it by using a shit ton of superglue to fill them. It’s come out alright if a little messy but I’ll just cover it with paint & hope for the best. Hell I’m not that precious. As befits the holy leader of such a blessed force I added staggered candles & a skull on the bottom step to trip over the faithful in the emperors name. Yes!

I also chose against converting her as I loved the model. The only thing I did was a head swap as I wanted a younger Canoness. (HOW VERY DARE I) I also took the flaming backpack of awesomeness from the Repentia Mistress & stuck that on her instead. It just looked more impressive for a lady of her power.

That’s it! The entire contents of the starter set is built & primed & ready for me to take decades to paint them. Well I really hope not but this blog has definitely been a huge motivation in getting this far so quick. As with most of us life gets in the way & so I have limited time to hobby but I am determined to get this army finished & create something to be proud of.

At last the next post will more than likely be the first in my painting blogs. I will try & go through step by step how I bring these sisters to life to smite the Emperors foes.

I hope you guys are enjoying these posts as much as I am making them.

Oh & if I don’t make an update before then

Merry Bloody Christmas

Much Love
