Blood
Angels
This army is still in the process of being painted and will form a
1000pts core for later expansion. A black reach Captain leads this Small Blood
Angle army. The death company are build using the new plastic legs and old metal
shoulder pads along with a spare helmet from the Venerable Dreadnought kit. A 10
man tactical squad forms the core unit of the army lead by a Sargent in oop
metal MK8 power armour. A five man devastator squad armed with Missile Luncher,
Las cannon, Multi-melta and heavy bolter adds a versatile heavy support option.
A five man terminator squad made from the limited edition space hulk squad forms
a elite choice. A second five man tactical squad adds a 3rd troop choice with an
old out of production Blood Angles Sargent model. The Limited Edition Space Hulk
Librarian adds a second HQ option and Psychic support.
Sargant
Lorenzo from the limited edition Space Hulk game
This limited edition Space
Hulk Sargent model takes a lot of time to paint. It could relly
still do with a bit more work. I intend to come back and add
a bit more detail to the armour. The many layers of shading don't really show
up well in this photo. The lighting effect on this sword didn't really work so
I may have another go at it. The bit I'm most pleased with is the base which
is just the normal stand drybrushed with codex gray and has had slate gluded on
around it.
Troops
Tactical
Squad
This
Tactical Squad has had a few minor tweaks. The Sargent is an old MK8 Power
armour marine complete with metal MK8 arms a new Bolter, targeter and
purity seals have been added. On the back row is are two MK6 marines. One
is armed with a melta gun the other is with a Missile Launcher both have
original plastic MK6 torsos.
Blood
Angel Sargeant
This is the orginal Blood Angels
Sargent model from Rogue Trader/Second Edition. I picked up this model
faily recently. Games Workshop have dicontinued both the old Blood Angel
Sargents. The other old modle whcih came with the devistator squad has one
of the thin helment vents, they don't apear to like selling these. I'm not
sure why this one got the chop. It is a little shorter than new models but
I intend to put it on a rasied base to get over that.
Death
Company
This Death Company Squad is made from a Assault
Marines with mix of the new Death Company plastic legs the Lead model
has a spear helmet from the Venerable Dreagnought kit. Some old metal blood angel
sholder pads have also been used. The armour has been painted black and
highlited with a single grey mix. The red is foundation red with
blood red highlights.
Assault
Squad
This Sergeant for my Assault Squad is
made from the standard Assault squad model with MK6 legs. The head is from
the Death Watch conversion kit, the weapons are from the Forge World Mk5
Assault squad. Mk4 knee pads have been painted onto the legs.
Unfortunately the Highlighting doesn't show up very well in this photo.
There are four more models in this squad but they are only base coated at
the moment.
