Bryan Blaire Posted July 14, 2011 Share Posted July 14, 2011 Definitely appears to be a dividing line along the back like a 90 edge of a box done in black and there appears to be a wrinkle or highlight of some kind on the "ground" to the left hand side of the model, so I'm guessing light box with black cloth or some such. Then again it could just be my screen being wonky. Bevulf, awesome stuff! Your guys are definitely a demotivator for me to paint! :P Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/177316-dark-angels-strikeforce/page/8/#findComment-2819099 Share on other sites More sharing options...
bevulf Posted July 14, 2011 Author Share Posted July 14, 2011 Thanks guys for all your kind words ! Bryan Blaire@ you are absolutely right with the light box and the black cloth as a background :P The difference in colour is casued by the diffent camera settings and the different sources of light that I use when taking a photo. I have to postpone Azrael's personal command squad right now. I want to paint tactical squad first and after that the Deathwing of which I mentioned in earlier post :P Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/177316-dark-angels-strikeforce/page/8/#findComment-2819148 Share on other sites More sharing options...

warsmith Posted July 18, 2011 Share Posted July 18, 2011 Lovely looking models so far, I have a question (apologies if its been asked before, I'd go through the thread to find out but its taken me 15 minutes just to load a page today due to bad weather and crappy coverage on my mobile broadband). Where are the bases from? They look like cast resin to me and they'd be perfect for a project I'm working on. Thanks in advance.

bevulf Posted July 19, 2011 Author Share Posted July 19, 2011 I make bases myself. I use the cork, some gravel and sand. I don't really like the resin bases as there are few different types of them and patterns are repeated. Use the cork and you will never make two the same :cuss Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/177316-dark-angels-strikeforce/page/8/#findComment-2822755 Share on other sites More sharing options...
bevulf Posted December 13, 2011 Author Share Posted December 13, 2011 It's been ages. It's been ages since I last visited here... Now I am back Brothers ! and I am ready to hunt those who fallen from the Emperor's Light !! In my absence I wasn't idle though. I managed to finish one tactical squad (I know it is not much but I still suffer from having not enough free time to paint). Below is the result: 1st Tactical Squad of the 3rd Company of Master Orias plus some more photos of my force so far: You may ask 'what about the others ?' Well, I sold everything else and this is what's left. I am not planning to sell more so this is the start of the whole new army ! I have already started converting the DEATHWING SQUAD so you know what to expect very very soon :P Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/177316-dark-angels-strikeforce/page/8/#findComment-2943633 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Captain Semper Posted December 15, 2011 Share Posted December 15, 2011 This is very high quality stuff bevulf. Very inspirational and humbling... The Ravenwing I like the most! Look forward for your DW squad! Should we also expect the 3rd to grow? Command squad maybe? Hope you update soon.

bevulf Posted December 15, 2011 Author Share Posted December 15, 2011 Thank you guys for all your kind words ! I am really glad that you still like my work ! @roninmodern - highlights are done first with a mix 1:1 Chaos Black and Astronomicon Grey then followed with pure Astronomicon Grey (dilluted with water) @Captain Semper - Yes, I plan to paint more marines of the 3rd company (at least one more tactical squad, one assault and devastators) + a lot of various tanks. I just started with the deathwing because they've been sitting on my desk for so long. Picture of assembled terminators very soon (maybe tomorrow!) :D I have already assembled sergeant - I hope to suprise you :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/177316-dark-angels-strikeforce/page/8/#findComment-2944706 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zebukkuk Posted December 16, 2011 Share Posted December 16, 2011 hmm, nice work there. You're using some of the space hulk legs on these models but do you have any plans for the torsos? i know the space hulk terminators have a lot of blood angel specifc bits but i'd think those could be chopped off.

egon1six Posted December 16, 2011 Share Posted December 16, 2011 Reall loving those terminators!!! I must say you are a brave man for cutting thos SH termies up so much!

Wayward Posted December 16, 2011 Share Posted December 16, 2011 Just WOW. When those Dethwings clash with some paint, they will be premium stuff. Rest of the force is looking ace too! Sad to hear you had to let go all the other stuff you painted, I hope they sold themselves high!!

Captain Semper Posted December 16, 2011 Share Posted December 16, 2011 You must be a brave man indeed! I also like the (often overlooked) ceremonial swords... Can you remind me where they came from? Looks excellent! Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/177316-dark-angels-strikeforce/page/8/#findComment-2945364 Share on other sites More sharing options...
bevulf Posted December 16, 2011 Author Share Posted December 16, 2011 @Zebukkuk - I do not plan to use the SH torsos. I used one for the sergeant but only because removing the blood angels icon was quite easy. The rest are resembling the blood angels so much that removing all the icons don't make sense to me. I used normal ones with some feathers and purity seals added. @egon1six - the small feathers are from the small shields that can be found on Dark Angels Veterans Sprue: http://www.modelbits.co.uk/images/dark_angels_accessory_terminator_small_shield_b.jpg @Wayward - yes, it was a hard decision but I am happy that they are now in the hands of a serious collector and also a BIG Dark Angels fan. So, all in all they are in good hands :) @Captain Semper - the ceremonial swords came from the Catachan Command Squad Sprue (I bought several from a bitz store): http://www.modelbits.co.uk/images/catachan_command_squad_single_sword_1_large.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/177316-dark-angels-strikeforce/page/8/#findComment-2945389 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kajae Posted December 16, 2011 Share Posted December 16, 2011 Very nice. I've never bought a terminators box. Does it come with that giant standard? Anyway, I can't wait to see them painted!
