The only ones left are Sammael of the 2nd Company (Ravenwing) and the 9th Devastator Company remaining.
Belial, 1st Company - Deathwing
3rd Battle Company
4th Battle Company
Balthazar, 5th Battle Company
6th Tactical Company
7th Tactical Company
In case you are wondering, yes. I am swapping both masters of 6th and 7th in to keep so that it would be easier to line them up in the display case as seen in the top two image. I'll be fixing the leg insignia very soon.
And now, the new ones.
8th Assault Company
10th Scout Company
For the 9th Devastator Company, I decided against using the standard Space Marine Captain Model as I notice the left arm position is very similar to the AOBR captain (my 4th Company in this case). I am going to see if I can make something worth while after getting a box of devastator squad.
As an added follow up, the new librarians.
Librarian 1
Librarian 2
I will be back to finish up the Land Raider since I recently had some good inspiration from Mini Brush Studio.

You have an impressive looking collection for sure. ^_^ I have never tried painting a space marine leader before as I am a bit intimidated by the work needed to make a banner look good. Maybe it's time to bring out my SM Captain from the Assault on Black Reach set and paint him. Lol ... yes you heard right. I have not even finished painting my first ever W40K set yet! XD
Thanks. Apparently not all captains carry banners, although one thing I notice in common is the amount of ropes/tassels they have on their body XD.
I do agree that it takes quite alot to get the banners look good. But in this case, I went for somewhat simple route as most of the parts I paint gold instead.
Some key point I forgot about was that the banners are best attached last. A good example was the 3rd Company master where I made a mistake of gluing everything on (which is a bad habit of mine). That made the banner tricky to paint and I even got the Dark Angel symbol wrong. Will be correcting that later, of course.
The banner for 4th was just a modification of what was seen on the AOBR box set, while 6th was basically a paint by number as shown on the box.
One thing I found useful was to get the background done first. Via base-wash-layer-drybrush combo before doing the details.
BTW, looking forward to see your AOBR set complete XD
LOL ... my AOBR set may never be completed. ^_^
I hear you on the gluing of parts. I would prefer gluing them all together before painting but unfortunately that's not always possible. -_-
