TheFallenArchAngel Posted January 23, 2011 Share Posted January 23, 2011 I was debating on what chapter to do, I like the fluff and scheme of both chapters but I think that I might have a problem painting white for the sang guard and death company, so what's your opinions on which chapter I should do ( this is my first army) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/220328-what-chapter-do-i-do/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kurb Posted January 23, 2011 Share Posted January 23, 2011 From what I can tell there are less Blood Drinkers than Encarmine, dunno if that would help your decision.

Plague Angel Posted January 23, 2011 Share Posted January 23, 2011 Well, what's your stance on the Flaw and/or Death Company? Encarmine are deteriorating fast, and have more Death Company than anyone else. Blood Drinkers embrace and play up the vampire thing, drinking blood more often in exchange for less DC and more control.

Plague Angel Posted January 23, 2011 Share Posted January 23, 2011 But we all drink blood. That's not something that's Blood Drinkers exclusive. :P Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/220328-what-chapter-do-i-do/#findComment-2630638 Share on other sites More sharing options...

igotsmeakabob!! Posted January 23, 2011 Share Posted January 23, 2011 Alright, then I say go with whatever color scheme you like better. What appeals to you more? http://images.wikia.com/warhammer40k/images/1/12/Blood_Drinkers_Armor.png or http://images.wikia.com/warhammer40k/images/7/72/Angels_Encarmine_Armor.png On top of that, which Chapter Symbol do you think you'd be more comfortable painting?

Plague Angel Posted January 23, 2011 Share Posted January 23, 2011 You know, I really really love the Angels Encarmine chapter symbol. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/220328-what-chapter-do-i-do/#findComment-2630693 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Justin2008 Posted January 23, 2011 Share Posted January 23, 2011 The encarmine look too similar to the normal BA. Also i know the whole chapter drink blood, but the blood drinkers have a more 'thirst' for blood, and so make them more like vampires :P. Also the symbols are cool, but i think BD are the choice, encarmine are too similar to BA for models, and you dont see many BD around ;) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/220328-what-chapter-do-i-do/#findComment-2630846 Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Yncarne Posted January 23, 2011 Share Posted January 23, 2011 I agree with igotsmeakabob!! It depends more on the colors you want to paint and see on the board. While Blood Drinkers appear in the RT rulebook, they look much more like a second edition color scheme as presented.

TheFallenArchAngel Posted January 23, 2011 Author Share Posted January 23, 2011 i like both schemes but its the whole white painting on dc and sang guard, i don't no if a noob like me can paint it right. @ the emperors immortals, at my gw out of the like 5 people how play blood angels 3 are flesh tearers, one of my friends at the store does tearers because his name is seth( chapter master is named seth) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/220328-what-chapter-do-i-do/#findComment-2631002 Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Yncarne Posted January 24, 2011 Share Posted January 24, 2011 I don't know what your painting capabilities are but painting white isn't as daunting as you think. There are several techniques that work including drybrushing from a gray primer, using ink or glazes on a white primer as well as the "build up via layers" which seems the most common. It is your army and you will need to make the decision. Painting what you want is a strong motivator. Don't underestimate it.

WarpWalker Posted January 24, 2011 Share Posted January 24, 2011 I haven't updated my blog in forever but I play Angels Encarime and the white is easier than red to paint. Start with black and dry drush 2 or 3 coats of white and finish with a watered down white coat. Real easy. A very helpful tip is to use a new brush that is solely used for ONLY white paint. It keeps your whites whiter. :D Have a look at my blog and you will see. The whole vamp fluffy thing never really interested me. It was the struggle with blood thirsty monster living inside that I liked.
