My blood angels

Awesome marines. That dark red and white really ties the noble Blood Angels theme with their dark side.

Any chance you'd be willing to share your red recipe?

Thanks terminatorAM. The basecoating is done with an airbrush, saves a lifetime but the the highlighting just adds to it again.wallbash.gif

1:1 Mephiston Red/Abbadon Black

Mephitston Red

Evil Suns Scarlet

Wild Rider Red to pick out the edges

Gloss Coat

Hi all

5 man death company squad done, I stripped these down from when I first painted them a while back so a few of the blood drops have broken off but hey. It was nice to take a break from red which is all I've seemed to have done recently. What do you think?

I think some of the larger gold areas are too bright. I personally prefer an "older" gold. That's why I use bronze for my gold. It's only the gold I'm less enthusiastic about. The rest of the color choices I think are great.

 

I like to sneak green onto my models. On trinkets/buttons/small things.

Okay all I'm back. Finally finished my furioso, work has been so crazy I've barely had time to paint. Good news is I've got the painting bug so after this is a Baal predator.

I'm probably about 85% happy with it, scroll work could have been better and the gold face too, but hey I can live with it. Anyway what do you think?

I like it a lot! I kept staring at the first picture. It appears as if there's a bigger gun mounted beneath the Frag cannon. Alas it was only the wall behind.

Good work, Brother. thumbsup.gif

Thanks Taranis, I know what you mean now, how cool would that look if it actually looked like that.

I need to change!

Awesome Stuff Brother!

Hahaha thanks Wolf_Pack biggrin.png
