Top 5: Our best Ultramarines posts

Last weekend, the Ultramarines were graced with a selection of new models, and they will continue to play a key role in the 500 Worlds campaign going forward. Today, we present to you our top 5 Ultramarines posts. Everything is included, from inspiring miniature showcases to tutorials and reviews, because Ultramarines have always been extremely popular within the Tale of Painters crew.

Without further ado, here are the best posts from over 15 years of Tale of Painters:
