Lord Magyar Posted April 4, 2007 Author Share Posted April 4, 2007 Master Toddius thank you. Dominus Ex Machina thanks, i'm not sure about the points limit. I have a terminator squad built that I will be painting next. I still need to build another tactical squad or two. I also have all the parts ready to build an assault squad with my pre heresy style turbo fan jump packs. I have a Rhino, Predator, and a Land Raider planned. I don't know exactly how many points it will total up to. I tend to build what appeals to me at the moment and then worry about the point value later. SeerBrun thanks, I had thought about using the older bolters or converting the newer ones, but I just don't really like the look of 'em with the magazine so far forward just personal preference I guess.

kanan Posted April 7, 2007 Share Posted April 7, 2007 those pre-heresy dark angels are looking very very good. i like the way you are doing your highlights on the black armour. with regards to rogue trader, do you remember the rank insignia that used to be applied to marines for trooper, sergeant, lietenant, captain ect on the forearm and the shoulder pad. would you consider doing that on your marines as i think it would look great. all in all wonderful work there and i look forward to seeing more of your figures painted. oh and are you using vallejo paints and inks in addition to GW colour? and are you using vallejo game colour or model colour? also are vellajo better than GW colour in general or just for specific techniques? thanks Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/102976-heresy-era-dark-angels/page/3/#findComment-1227160 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Magyar Posted April 7, 2007 Author Share Posted April 7, 2007 kanan Thank you. I use Vallejo model and game color as well as GW's paints. I don't think one is better than the other some of the colors from one will cover better than the other, but most of it is just personal preference they both work well. As for the Rogue Trader insignia I don't know what they all looked like. If you have a site with reference pics I would love to see it.

Khan of Soup Posted April 12, 2007 Share Posted April 12, 2007 Holy Jesus, those terminators ^_^ Can we get a full army shot soon? I think a scenic army base is appropriate for this army you have made.

Master Toddius Posted April 13, 2007 Share Posted April 13, 2007 Those are fairly close Pre-H termies... Except personalized and totally rockin. :) You are just crankin them out. The use of bits and plasticard is really well executed, again. Your army is going to be done in no time. Great tenacity.

Master of the Dark Scyths Posted April 15, 2007 Share Posted April 15, 2007 With me being a pre-herasy DA as well, any chance of some kind of a 'how2' on the sholder pads on the termies. i'm currently debating on glossing my armour, although, i might try and get some pictures, and ask ur advice Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/102976-heresy-era-dark-angels/page/3/#findComment-1234263 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Magyar Posted April 15, 2007 Author Share Posted April 15, 2007 Thanks to one and all for the positive feedback. Master Toddius i've recently just built a Rhino and Predator. They are ready for paint, but then I got a little side tracked working on an assault squad. Master of the Dark Scyths I've had alot of people ask for a tutorial on the shoulder pads, I guess I need to get off my ass and make one.

Stuart Posted April 15, 2007 Share Posted April 15, 2007 I like what you've done so far. However, I can't help but feel the Terminator Sergeant/Commander is being brought down by the size of his axe. A little smaller might be better. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/102976-heresy-era-dark-angels/page/3/#findComment-1234600 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Festablo Posted April 16, 2007 Share Posted April 16, 2007 I love them, I think you did a great job, the only thing I would change is put a black ring around the bases, and leave the top that marble. I think it would really tie them all together..
