BFG: Pre-Heresy World Eater Space Marine Fleet

Among the various ships I had printed up, aside from all the transports, was a fairly sizable Space Marine Fleet.

The centerpiece of which is obviously the Battle Barge at the center of this picture. It's escorted by a standard Strike Cruiser, 6 Frigates (probably about 25% bigger than they should be) and a single destroyer.

It took me a bit to decide what chapter I wanted them to be. In the end I settled on pre-heresy World Eaters.

They'll fit in well with the few ships I have painted that are in storage.

I also got a pair of Grey Knight Strike Cruisers, one standard, and one carrier variant.

They still have a little bit of detailing that needs doing, but, they're close enough to done to share.

Battlefleet Gothic Coming Into Orbit - Transports

I joined a couple of groups on Facebook that have resparked my interest in Battlefleet Gothic. The first was a Starship Modeler group, and that lead me to joining a BFG group. Mostly cause I didn't have the space to start building starships from Star Trek. Not at the scale I'd like. Not in this tiny apartment....

But BFG ships are all pretty small... And while I do have a sizable collection of Imperials, Chaos, Tau and Orcs... They're all in storage. And rather than try to dig them out, I just ordered some 3D prints.

After cleaning the supports off of them, I gave them a good wash, and then primed them black.

As you can see, there's a good assortment of Space Marine ships and a bunch of transports (middle to bottom right) along with a  pair of system ships (bottom left). Also in the mix are some Noble Armada ships (silver top left) that I had in the back of my mini box.

All primed!

Transports!

And here are the transports all painted up, along with a pair of system ships. It's hard to see but they're painted up like Coast Guard ships.

The goal with these was colorful. I think I nailed it.
