This Blood Angels Ost is commanded by a Librarian, Alastor Vaen :

I have painted this army in one year for a challenge in a french forum (resurrection40K). I have finished in the 6th position.

Comments are welcome.

Outstanding work!

Firstly a lovely red and some nice, not overdone, battle damage.

I love the hot barrels on the razorback and dreadnought's cannon. Some excellent poses in there too. I particularly like the 2nd tactical squad's flamer-guy, how he seems to be reacting to an enemy's sudden appearance and swinging his weapon to face it.

Now this is THE best army of Blood Angels I have ever seen! You are a genius and master painter my friend, could you share the recipe for that red? It seems very nice and fitting, I can't wait to see what you cook up next in your kitchen of angels of baal!!!
First of all your english is much better than my french so good work. Second of all great blood angels army it is beautiful. How much further do you plan to go with this army or is it complete? Please do more for the betterment of all warhammerkind

Hello and Thank's for all comment.

 

The recipe for the red is simple.

 

Basecoat : Blood Red with airbrush.

Darkening : red ink (old GW paint).

Darkening 2 : Baal red.

Darkening 3 : agrax earthshade.

Highlight : Blood red or evil sun scarlet.

Highlight 2 : blazing orange.

highlight 3 : blazing orange and skull white (50/50)

Darkening 4 : mix of agrax earthshade and baal red or just baal red.

 

Follow this link to my blog. I explain how I paint Blood Angels.

The conversion of the librarian is not very hard but cut metal is the most difficult. I use part of Mephiston, Astorath, marneus calgar champion of honour guard (for the loin cloth), blood dragon vampire lord for the blade. Recently i ave changed the librarian and his honour guard and added jump pack for all.

Next stage of my army :

 

A Thunderhawk. Very very long to paint it.
