Closeups of the 4 "new" Sgts

This guy was an Ebay special and has a serious glue spillage problem but looks ok on the table at arms length. Just did not have the time to do a full paint strip and glue scraping. :lol:

All the arms are magnetised and I have spare AC/SB and PF arms for as and when I need them ;)

 

The Sgt with Sword and Shield was me just wishing.....

Elmo, they look fantastic! I love all the little details you've added, the little freehand marks, etc. I also really like the power sword/Storm Shield combo, maybe we'll get a shot at that. What is with the random Apothecary but no Standard Bearer? Is that squad the command squad? Really like your bone coloration and that's a fantastic 30 Deathwing. Very nice job, sir, very nice!

 

Have fun on your holiday!

Thanks Bryan - you are correct that he is part of the command squad - no standard bearer as of yet but with magnetised arms there is always that option :D

 

Cheers Demio - legend sounds good :lol:

 

and to Arkley - no real plan at present - torn between the DV libbi or Chaplain but I still have to repaint all my old red weapons to the new dark red version at some point.

I will give it some thought over the hols.

 

Now I really must be going so just to thank all of you for your motivation over the last years painting and to wish you all a Happy Christmas and a Merry New Year - see you on the other side.

I, Elmo9141of the Dark Angels, vow on the honour of my Chapter to paint and present at least one Dark Vengeance Librarian on or before the 31st of March, 2013. I promise to provide at least two WIP updates, preferably with pictures, in that time. I vow that if I should fail, I will provide the Librarium with an article and wear the Signature of Shame until my penitence period is done.

 

For the Lion!

 

Initial photos to follow ;)

Now Stobz... do you feel the pressure? :lol:

 

Nope, still got most of a month to vow then two more to complete it. Too easy, I can't open Elmo's GW link at work but I hope it's not a Contemptor, 'coz that's my next option :)

 

BTW: Old is good, young fellas hate being beaten by geriatrics. :P

We think the same again.... The neapoleonic old guard is what I thought you meant ;)

 

But I had a minds eye picture of blokes in bearskins with grey beards a la Sharpe TV series but reading the wiki entry it says 35 years or younger so - ta very much and I will take it as a compliment although I do not own any facial hair :lol:

 

These back to back painting challenges are making short work of the painting queue so bring it on!

No where near finished. Unfortunately my LPC IG vow took a little longer than I had hoped.

 

Here is where I am at the moment with the WIP Chaplain.
