KaosRaptor Posted June 22, 2012 Share Posted June 22, 2012 Hey all, was in a GW store recently and as part of the birthday antics I got to take part in a lucky dip. I managed to win the parts to make a single Death Company marine (with two hand flamers oddly enough :D ), either with jump pack or regular backpack. Thing is, I don't collect Blood Angels, and have already painted black marines (Black Legion) and red marines (Exorcists), so would rather not paint it as Death Company. I guess I'm asking if anyone has any ideas on what to do with the bits I've got? I'm willing to convert, but I've got no idea what to do with them. Loyalist or renegade, I'm not picky! :P Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/254504-what-to-do-with-some-bits/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aqui Posted June 22, 2012 Share Posted June 22, 2012 Hey all, was in a GW store recently and as part of the birthday antics I got to take part in a lucky dip.

Loyalist or renegade, I'm not picky! ;) You could paint it as a BA successor e.g. Lamenters who aren't red or black, make your own DIY BA successor (and thereby choose a colour(s) that you want to paint it as.) Otherwise (depending on the specific markings), you could create a non BA Chapter that has similar markings. In any case, I'm interested in what you end up doing :P Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/254504-what-to-do-with-some-bits/#findComment-3091857 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hyaenidae Posted June 22, 2012 Share Posted June 22, 2012 I used the twin hand flamers as a counts-as flamer for my Marines Malevolent. As for the other bits, either scrape off, or use greenstuff to fill in, all of the Death Company markings. Makes for some characterful bits when cleaned up. :D Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/254504-what-to-do-with-some-bits/#findComment-3091860 Share on other sites More sharing options...
KaosRaptor Posted June 22, 2012 Author Share Posted June 22, 2012 Thanks for the input so far guys. Aquilanus: Yeah, after looking into the BA successors I think I might make him into a somewhat-chaosy Knights of Blood. You know, mostly DC parts but with a Chaos shoulder pad and Daemon Weapon perhaps. Maybe even get an entire DC box in the future to create an honour guard/chosen squad! 1000heathens: Thanks for the idea with the hand flamers, hadn't thought of that :P Might save them for use with my Exorcists or Black Legion then, I can always use more special weapons. Always loved your marines btw, those guys really look like they've been through the meat grinder!
