Redfinger Posted October 28, 2010 Share Posted October 28, 2010 Ok, so I have beenbuilding models in one way or another for about 15 years. I have a ton of WWII nose art decals lying around, does it work for Blood Angels, or even the 40k universe, or am I better off going out and starting a IG army ;) I have a feeling it might clash with the whole gothic thing.... Any thoughts? Ashton Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/214033-blood-angels-and-nose-art/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
jbarket Posted October 28, 2010 Share Posted October 28, 2010 I just don't know what you'd put it on, other than a Storm Raven conversion. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/214033-blood-angels-and-nose-art/#findComment-2547205 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redfinger Posted October 28, 2010 Author Share Posted October 28, 2010 I figured it could work on tanks too.... Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/214033-blood-angels-and-nose-art/#findComment-2547225 Share on other sites More sharing options...

BrotherMoses Posted October 28, 2010 Share Posted October 28, 2010 It would have to be classical looking. Certainly none of the ladies you see on WWII planes. Maybe Sanguinius wielding a spear or some relief.

jbarket Posted October 28, 2010 Share Posted October 28, 2010 I figured it could work on tanks too.... Oh, totally! My lack of tanks has apparently tainted my ability to think, haha. It would be awesome on something big like a Land Raider for sure.

Zeller Posted October 28, 2010 Share Posted October 28, 2010 So long as you're not putting a big picture of Pluto from a bomber kit onto a tank you should be fine. They would make for a nice detail on the upper front plate of a predator turret or the arms of a dreadnought. If you have them small enough perhaps you could put then on banners or even knee caps so long as they aren't too cartoony.

Dingareth Posted October 28, 2010 Share Posted October 28, 2010 Meh, they're you're models. I wouldn't though, just doesn't fit. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/214033-blood-angels-and-nose-art/#findComment-2547612 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother Jim Posted October 29, 2010 Share Posted October 29, 2010 I would save it for a Guard army. Over on the Imperial Guard Message Board there are some interesting Valkyrie nose art threads going on. I think "non-Blood Angely" art would look really out of place on Blood Angels miniatures. But hey, they're your models, so do whatever you want. :tu: Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/214033-blood-angels-and-nose-art/#findComment-2548976 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vodunius Posted October 29, 2010 Share Posted October 29, 2010 I'm suddenly picturing a Codex Grey (for the n00bs: back in RT painting a vehicle in chapter colours was a deviation, the Codex Astartes dictated that the basic Astartes vehicle scheme should be grey, hence the name of the paint) Vindicator with graffiti painted it to make it look like a bit of building.

Kitchensink Posted October 30, 2010 Share Posted October 30, 2010 Idea: If you have a Furioso, you should use the sharky face decals on each of its CCWs. That way, the last glimpse any xeno/heretic/rebel scum would have of your Dreadnought is a pair of shark faced claws reaching for them. And it would be awesome.
