Stahly
The mysterious masked Stahly is the founder and mastermind of Tale of Painters. Hailing from Craftworld Germany, he has been walking the Path of the Warhammer Collector since childhood. Over the decades, he has painted multiple armies and countless warbands and miniatures. When he's not painting miniatures or working on his library of hand-painted colour swatches, he's testing the latest paints, tools and model kits with German precision and a no non-sense attitude.
Ultramarines: Razorback/Rhino
Can either be built as a Razorback with TL Heavy Bolters or Rhino. I got the Extra Armour from the Vindicator sprue.
Ultramarines: Assault Squad

Ultramarines: Tactical Squad Beta

Ultramarines: Tactical Squad Alpha

Ultramarines: Dreadnought
This is a dreadnought with storm cannon and DCCW arms. I always loved the clean design and shapes of the basic dread. This model is actually the first model I painted for this army.
