See?! Told You Everything Would Be Okay :), Just Showing Off The New Friend!

See?! Told you everything would be okay :), just showing off the new friend!

Lil B likes em a lot so sludge guesses he’s okay

Some doodles below the cut!

Sludge being them nasty selves :3 (don’t mind the little noise marine they’re for later-)

I’ve been seeing a lot of interesting stories and lots of good tips for keeping astartes and such, so I decided I’d dip my toes in the water!

While I have never really kept many astartes, we had an older pair of ultramarines(? I’m pretty sure?-) when I was younger but they were more my parents astartes then anything, I do keep Admechs. Right now I actually have a very sweet (albeit a bit of a nuisance some times—) Magos Explorator and their equally as precious companion Logis. But you see this is where issues kind of arise, I love both of them a lot and I do try to keep them as happy and stimulated as possible (as especially with my explorator, they get very antsy and mischievous when not) but this does take up a lot of time from my work and things. so a few months ago I decided to get a trio of skitarri to hopefully try and curb some of my magos duos tendencies to break out their pen and cause havoc in my home and surrounding neighborhood when I’m trying to work on bigger projects that require more of my attention.

Well, I was excited to find my Logis absolutely loved the new little skits. Even taking very good care of them when on some rare occasion I’m not around to watch them! Though, to my dismay, my explorator seems to want nothing to do with them??? I was very bummed about this as I had read skitarris made for very good companions to magos and it just seems to have made him want to break out even more than usual.

Maybe it’s me being a bit inexperienced, as while I’ve had my magos for a few years now I’m no expert, or maybe I made them upset in some way with bringing these skitarri home, but it’s very worrying that they’re trying to break out so much now as— especially as of late— I’ve seen a few astartes I don’t fully recognize wandering about and it’s always my fear they’ll end up being some territorial breed or like- an iron warrior and my explorator will get into some fight he can’t win since he can be extremely stubborn. Not to mention without my logis by his side he has a habit of straying too far from home before I can catch him again.

Any astartes keepers have tips for keeping unwanted astartes away? Is it really something I should worry about? Have I read too many astartes horror stories? Any tips to help with this? It would be greatly appreciated!

:0 oh?! Seems someone came for a visit! Look at how little B has grown!

Uh oh-

It’s my blabber time since I’m half awake and bored B) the best decision making!! Hope you guys don’t mind my ramblings lol—

But anyway was thinking about maybe writing some fics for my commissar Galileo, he’s so silly smh— and I’d love to further explore some ideas for him. He’s my emotional support angst hetero your honor 🥺!!!!

I also really just like drawing his character so maybe I’ll scrape together more posts since at least some people seem to like when I post him x). For better or for worse I always find myself making some very fluffy characters for grim dark settings, it’s very fun for me— and don’t get me wrong they get plenty of angst and lore appropriate sorrow but it’s more fun to focus on fluff sometimes ya know? Looks at the mini marines looks away

He actually had two commisar counter parts I’ve made as well I might talk abt eventually lol, I’ve actually posted one before and that’s asshole old man Storvis, but yeah UwU.

I just think they’re silly bc they’re all meant to juxtapose one another, Galileo is this very ciaphaus Cain sort of figure where he really does deeply care for his regiments in a very parental and paternal way but feels ashamed for it.

Meanwhile Storvis is just the kind of “stereotypical” one wrong more and you’re a heretic commissar

And my third boy is this skittish barely holding himself together commissar who has had the displeasure of being assigned to a penal regiment and having to face the lovely tortures that brings (he has more lore as well but shhhhh—)

B) but yeah— love my boys

Some baby Galileo doodles + Storvis jumpscare—

Local old man doesn’t know what a baby is—
