„The existence of the Alien is a problem with but one solution: Extermination. When Mankind is alone in the cosmos, only then will we have achieved our destiny.”
— Lucretius Corvo, First Chapter Master of the Novamarines
Today, we present to you one of the most loyal Chapters of the Adeptus Astartes, unwavering in their devotion to the Emperor and His eternal teachings. The Novamarines Chapter, steadfast and resolute, is a paragon of discipline in adhering to the Codex Astartes. The sons of Guilliman have served the Imperium of Man for thousands of years, their unyielding loyalty and indomitable spirit an inspiration to many other Chapters.
The founding of this Chapter is owed to the honored Captain of the Ultramarines, Lucretius Corvo, who during the Horus Heresy broke the siege on Astagar, vanquishing the Word Bearers and destroying the legendary Warlord Titan, Fellghast. For this deed, Primarch Roboute Guilliman himself awarded Corvo the Laurel of Perseverance, thus giving birth to the Novamarines Chapter.
Over the ages, the Novamarines have engraved their deeds in the annals of Imperial history, participating in the defense of Cadia during the Thirteenth Black Crusade and engaging in deadly combat against Typhus on Raukos during the Indomitus Crusade.
Our journey with the Novamarines began two years ago, and the images below showcase countless hours spent perfecting details and color schemes, imbuing each miniature with a unique character. Each unit is a tribute to the illustrious history of this Chapter and their unwavering determination.
Nova Marines Heavy Intercessors (4 units of 3 miniatures)
Nova Marines Heavy Intercessors (4 Units of 3 Miniatures)
The Heavy Intercessors, especially the brothers wielding Heavy Meltaguns, provided us with immense satisfaction and a rewarding challenge. Our goal in painting them was to capture the effect of superheated steel, reflecting the destructive power of their weapons. We focused on subtle color transitions and realistic signs of wear to convey the brutality of molten steel that these units bring to the battlefield. With NMM (Non-Metallic Metal) techniques emphasizing metallic elements on their armor, we achieved an effect that faithfully represents superheated metal and the unbreakable nature of the Novamarines.
We invite you to witness the results of our work and join the ranks of fans not only of Warhammer 40K but also of the art of miniature painting.
Nova Marines Terminators (4 Units of 5 Miniatures)
The Terminators are true titans of the Novamarines—a relentless hammer that crashes down upon the enemies of the Imperium with unstoppable force. Each of these miniatures is unique in detail, from massive armor plating to intricate engravings on helmets and shoulder guards, symbolizing the honor and achievements of this elite unit. In our work, we sought to faithfully recreate not only their armor but also the scars of battle fury. We focused on strong, contrasting tones to enhance their resolute nature, with particular attention to rich silver accents that give their armor an aura of majesty, worthy of heroes who have fought side by side with the mightiest warriors of the Imperium. Novamarines Terminators are more than just strength—they are symbols of loyal service, ready to strike where the threat is greatest.
Nova Marines Bladeguard Veterans (5 Units of 3)
The Bladeguard Veterans hold a unique place in the Novamarines’ ranks—not only for their combat prowess but for their almost ritualistic fidelity to the Codex. With their dazzling shields and lethal power swords, they stand as knights of old legends. In the painting process, we took great care to give each shield and blade a distinct glow, emitting an aura of energy that speaks to their power. Intricate details on their armor, from inscriptions to heraldic symbols, catch the eye and highlight master craftsmanship. Their richly saturated colors and battle-worn markings add the character of heroes who have survived countless battles, emerging from each one more determined. Bladeguard Veterans are an elite unit that commands admiration, both in the ranks of the Imperium and on the tabletop.
Nova Marines Assault Intercessors (3 Units of 5 Miniatures)
Swift, ruthless, and filled with zeal, the Assault Intercessors embody the relentless drive that makes them perfect for the charge. These miniatures are not merely models—they capture explosive energy, conveyed through dynamic poses and expressive details that reflect the brutality of close combat. We concentrated on realistic battle wear and intense color accents to bring forth their ferocity. Every Assault Intercessor is more than just a warrior; they are a representation of the raw, unyielding strength of the Novamarines.
Nova Marines Eliminators (3 units of 3 miniatures)
The Eliminators are masters of stealth and precision—the elite marksmen of the Novamarines, specializing in taking down high-value targets. Their skills in camouflage and silent movement make them the nightmare of any enemy of the Imperium. Our painting aimed to convey their subtle yet deadly character, so we focused on shaded cloaks in muted grey-green hues that allow them to blend seamlessly into their surroundings, emphasizing their role as scouts and snipers.
Nova Marines Repulsor Tanks (3 units)
The Nova Marines Repulsor Tanks are versatile heavy transports, capable of delivering troops deep into the heart of battle while providing substantial fire support. These tanks combine speed with durability, allowing them to swiftly navigate the battlefield, dominate strategic locations, and reinforce critical points.
Nova Marines Gladiator Tanks (2 units)
The Gladiator Tanks bring devastating firepower to the Nova Marines’ armored ranks. Designed for offensive support, they excel at breaking through enemy defenses and controlling the battlefield. Together, the Gladiators and Repulsors form a powerful armored spearhead that embodies the Nova Marines’ relentless pursuit of victory.
