SnorriSnorrison Posted January 21, 2011 Share Posted January 21, 2011 Hi there, very nice stuff you painted up! The rhino has a very nice tone of red and great weathering, the FW bits look really good as well. Same for your infantry. Good poses, nice painting, although the bolters are not drilled. :P Good work mate, well done!

t0mmi3 Posted January 25, 2011 Author Share Posted January 25, 2011 Quick question: Death Company in a rhino. Workable with CCW + Pistol? It just looks so much cooler. Same @ rhino with FW doors.

Definately workable. With the Rhino it's a lot easier to guide them where you want plus it's also cheaper than JP's.

Glendor Posted January 25, 2011 Share Posted January 25, 2011 How do you paint your red it looks amazing! Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/220113-blood-angels-5th-company/#findComment-2632758 Share on other sites More sharing options...
t0mmi3 Posted January 25, 2011 Author Share Posted January 25, 2011 I'll elaborate. and while Im at it Ill also make do the chipping guide. The red is abit of work. Make sure you always use wet paint. Starts off with Macrite red. dont paint the deep recesses (like the parts between armour) Then its off to blood red. Leave a small amount of macrite where it gets darker as per normal highlighting. you'll need 2 layers on bigger surfaces (like the shoulderpads) to get a good coverage. Then its a highlight of Blazing Orange. Then get some black to fix the red parts if u spilled some :P After thats all done, wash the entire thing with Baal red. it toons down the blazing orange (making it more red) and gets the macrite closer to blood red. Then get Devlan Mud to add some shadow where needed. As for the chipping its easiest to show. Right to left ;) http://i5.photobucket.com/albums/y176/t0mmi3/Chipping.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/220113-blood-angels-5th-company/#findComment-2632967 Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimbo1701 Posted January 25, 2011 Share Posted January 25, 2011 Just had a second look at your beautiful minis and just a couple of bits of constructive criticism for you. First, as someone else mentioned, drilling thw barrels really makes a difference with minis if you can get your hands on a pin vice. Secondly, and I'm surprised I missed this first time round, the rhino appears to have a tactical marking on the roof, though I've never seen BAs use the standard tactical/assault/dev markings, usually a blood drop. Just some thoughts. Keep up the good work. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/220113-blood-angels-5th-company/#findComment-2632974 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vodunius Posted January 27, 2011 Share Posted January 27, 2011 Secondly, and I'm surprised I missed this first time round, the rhino appears to have a tactical marking on the roof, though I've never seen BAs use the standard tactical/assault/dev markings, usually a blood drop. Its old skool but there is precedent for it: http://i143.photobucket.com/albums/r155/khromash/Baran.jpg http://i143.photobucket.com/albums/r155/khromash/bara2.jpg Top hatch would be painted up in (apocryphal) company colour with a codex squad marking, command squad would have the chapter badge in lieu of squad badges (as there was no codex command squad at the time). Personally I'm a big fan of it but then I'm an epic player at heart.

Ebsolom Posted January 28, 2011 Share Posted January 28, 2011 Coming along beautifully! The Tac Squad looks great and the bases set them off nicely. Are the DC getting a Rhino too? or a Storm Raven :P ?
