Not yet, but she's such a fun character that I jumped at the chance to paint her.
Every month the official Warhammer stores will have a different mini that you can get for free. It's not something to make an army out of, but it is a great low stakes chance to paint something different or do an interesting kitbash.
Yeah, the way they loom over even other marines is great. Hopefully they do more chapter specific variants as they others get their codexes.
There are a lot of PixelFed instances, this might get complicated.
I'd ask for https://miniature.photography but I'm one of only a dozen or so people who post there.
Someone asked about how the backdrop book looked with epic scale minis so I did a fun little photo shoot. I only have the one rhino at that scale and only the one bit of terrain to pose it on.
These books and some new ones are on Kickstarter for another day or so:

Contrast base coats and acrylic highlights.
Key players were: Iyanden Yellow, Black Templar, Army Painter Camo Cloak, Army Painter Hardened Leather, Army Painter Goddess Glow
Testing out a new Lemmy client instead of cross-posting right from PixelFed.
One of my goals for this year is to finish more of the projects I left in various states previously. Since I am about to do some Aeldari Kill Teams I grabbed the Rangers off the shelf where they had been assembled, primed, and only got as far as the yellow earlier.
After these guys I started to do combo bone/black weapons because it seemed to dull this way. I might retouch the faces later, "rosy" ended up just "pinky".
Fun dynamic poses and it feels nice to finish them up after a long delay.

Nice work!
Have you done some troops too, or just the characters so far?
Do you have accounts logged in on more than one instance? One of my accounts is with an instance that just updated to the Lemmy 0.19 beta yesterday which doesn't with with all clients. Once I removed that account from LiftOff everything went back to normal.
Thanks! Post some pictures as you go, too. Here is one of my first guys when I returned to painting three years ago. Lots, and lots, of practice from there to here.
I'm not suggesting that Blood Angels are closet Khorne worshippers (after all, look at all those Librarians), but this guy has a suspicious amount of trim for a loyalist.
Too many Blood Angels without having a Chaplain so I had to address that situation.
For anyone in the US, at least, it finally showed as oh stock at Barnes and Noble. Lot of great sculpts in there.

I wasn't as sure about how "40k" these guys would look back when they were previewed but I think they ended up firing the aesthetic just right. Scrap tech, plenty of chaos, begging for some grim dark colorations.

I didn't receive a tracking number or anything so it was a wonderful surprise to see the new Kingdom Death: Monster expansion arrived today! This is a lot to unpack, time to get ready for some mental trauma.

Von Ryan's Leapers and Barbgaunts. I'm not as pleased with the yellow-on-purple guns this time as I was with that scheme on the Termagants. May need to revisit that later.
Also need to find a good neon tufts to help the bases give a better sense of space like @shepherd@kbin.social suggested.
C&C welcome!
