The Yak Posted August 21, 2012 Share Posted August 21, 2012 There we go, the three best Fire Angel Captains in a row! Batu your stuff has been missed for too long... Then you come back with a tactical squad and a Devastator squad fully painted!!!! That means you have got half a company done (if my paltry maths is correct) 3 tactical 1 devastator and 1 assault. Which begs the question... What is next? Great stuff, keep it up :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/218767-5th-company-fire-angels-ia-9-style/page/4/#findComment-3154831 Share on other sites More sharing options...
batu Posted August 21, 2012 Author Share Posted August 21, 2012 @ Lorenzen: You mean like this guy ? ;) http://images.hollywood.com/cms/300x375/5345104.jpg No man, I painted the teeth with Skull White. Some kind of picture magic I guess :) @ The Yak: Thanks man ! :) Well, I started to work on the command squad and their Razorback. When I have finished them, I will be at 1500 points. I would like to bring the army to 2000 points though. I would like to stay on my fluffly course, so I thought about two Predators. Maybe one or two Landspeeders, so the 8th assault squad can show up as well :P But Im not so sure about this plan anymore because of the new allies rules in 6th. I think it would be quite cool and fluffy to include an Inquisitor, some Guards man, or Sisters of Battle. On the other hand, the thing with that is that it would not fit with the Badab War theme that much. Another chapter who has fought in the Badab War would probably be better suited as ally. I have read the IA article to look for a chapter that has fought along the Fire Angels, and the only one I found beeing mentioned were the Sons of Medusa. Thy would make a nice contrast in their green armour to my FA :) As you can see, I thought a bit about this ( I know Im crazy ). Most likely I will stick with FAs though.

The Yak Posted August 21, 2012 Share Posted August 21, 2012 Jaws and his Fire Angel tie... When you paint Fire Angels like you do it would be quite acceptable for someone to say "why bother with allies?" Although I would love to see more of these FA, I could quite happily understand Sisters of Battle fighting alongside these marines. Also feverent guardsmen must have served with the FA at some point, so your options are sound. Whatever you do, just make sure your Fire Angels keep coming...

Lorenzen Posted August 21, 2012 Share Posted August 21, 2012 the charcaradons are also an option and could be represented with blood angel assault squads or death co for the rage usr (i too have thought about allied stuff for my 2nd company) but then as a devout servant of the emperor surely purity should be of the utmost importance.. so id say 1500-2000 of fangles and then think about allies :lol: Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/218767-5th-company-fire-angels-ia-9-style/page/4/#findComment-3154873 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kizzdougs Posted August 27, 2012 Share Posted August 27, 2012 Looking great! The Empire shield and BT sword are perfect for the FAs. The cross on the side doors is really, really nice as well.

Marine Errant Posted August 27, 2012 Share Posted August 27, 2012 Hiya, Just discovered this thread :lol: Really liking the way you have developed your marines, and the paint scheme looks really good as well although (minor criticism.......) I am not too keen on the cross on the side doors. It is just a touch too 'violent'. Still, that aside, keep up the great work mate!

The Yak Posted August 28, 2012 Share Posted August 28, 2012 Now THAT my friend is how to paint a Rhino! That battle damage is very very impressive. I like the abstract cross on the side. Yes I like this a lot. Your really starting to fire these out pretty quickly again. Which can only be a good thing. Excellent work. Pleasure to look at it all. :) Cheers Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/218767-5th-company-fire-angels-ia-9-style/page/4/#findComment-3160431 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes I like this a lot. Thanks Brother !!!! :D Comments such as yours really help to motivate me ! Thanks again The Yak. Well, I guess did somthing wrong with that "abstract cross", because you did not recognize it immediately as an elite cross insignia, used by veterans and termis. To be honest, I saw this problem myself, but I just wanted to be done with it ;) cheers Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/218767-5th-company-fire-angels-ia-9-style/page/4/#findComment-3160488 Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Yak Posted September 6, 2012 Share Posted September 6, 2012 I absolutely :) love that command squad. I dont know where to start really. The banner is superb and the standard bearer himself is truly amazing. You capture the heroic knight feel so well with this squad. Each looks like a warrior who has his own heraldry and armour. Lavished with so much detail its just great to see.
