Blood Angel Successor Chapter - Rising Suns

[Vivster]

Thanks redhorse, i see what you mean yes it would be easier to distinguish, but inlike the black backpack since it ties in with the black trim and i would also like to atleast keep the gold trim and wrists with the elites. For the dc i am now wdging to more of a legion of the damned scheme - without the fire aspects. About the priests? I am not really too sure - i would probably go for either a white or silver scheme. My goal is to try and get a variarion in the army instead of all just being white or red but i am still deciding about the dc and if i do make them white (which i may not) i will probably make the priests like a golden colour and give them a mask of some sort to prevent them from nomming on some blood during mid battle.

 

Also for a red scheme do u guys suggest a khorne red or mephiston red and if so on what primer? Thanks

[MadGreek]

No. If you go another color for your other Marines, then go would white for DC.

[Vivster]

White DC, I like it! Ghost DC fluff time :D

[Vivster]

What would you guys say was the best unhelmeted face for dante? - just standard gw stuff no 3rd party stuff

[Quixus]

I 'd say DC bare head C or SM Terminator bare head B, but I'm not sure if you may model Dante with a bare head, since wears the Deathmask of Sanguinius.

[Vivster]

Hmmm fair point - i'll just tell me oponnents his face is as terrifying as a death mask :P

[Boomkapow]

Post some models! Love the theme, love the ideas, love the examples. I cant wait to see some models!

[Vivster]

Right guys, my model for Dante has still not arrived!

So I drew a picture

 

It is my idea of how I want my Dante Model to Look like:

I present to you - Lord Shogun Tokugawa of the Rising Suns

I can't draw faces so please excuse me on that....

 

All comments appreciated

 

Thanks

I am going to kitbash my own dante after being disappointed with the size of the current model and use him for a sang priest or something - i will also get the kromlech heads

[Vivster]

Those are some superb stuff there MadGreek thanks!

 

Thanks everyone for the exam supports. One question before I leave:

I will be kitting out my sang guard in this way:

Sanguinary Guard (5): 250- Powerfist, Chapter Banner, Infernus Pistol

 

Should i give the powerfist to the guy with the chapter banner or someone else in the squad. Thanks :) any more suggestions are welcome.
