swartsengagger Posted April 18, 2014 Share Posted April 18, 2014 Hi! So I decided to start painting and playing WH40K again (woohoo). And thus I've started work on my new Terminators ^^ Now over the years I've come up with a bit of background for my DIY Dark Angels Successor chapter. Long story short: Crusade Era Dark Angels got stuck in the warp with some Orks, came out a few centuries later but guess what ? Several thousand years had passed. After some weird looks and giggles they were eventually accepted and reinstated as a Dark Angels Successor Chapter => Shadow Angels. I wanted them to stay true to most of the original color-scheme but also let them show respect to the "recent" adaptations like the Deathwing. I've painted up 1 Command Squad and 2 Knights Squads and some HQ's. http://i105.photobucket.com/albums/m213/swartsengagger/IMG_20140418_145436261_zps6674867c.jpg Detail of the banner http://i105.photobucket.com/albums/m213/swartsengagger/IMG_20140418_145358543_zpsebde207d.jpg Knights http://i105.photobucket.com/albums/m213/swartsengagger/IMG_20140418_145555384_zpsd52ea35d.jpg http://i105.photobucket.com/albums/m213/swartsengagger/IMG_20140418_145512959_zpse209731d.jpg Chaplain http://i105.photobucket.com/albums/m213/swartsengagger/IMG_20140418_145612525_zps8f23d5d2.jpg Librarian (yes that's the Space Hulk one :p ) http://i105.photobucket.com/albums/m213/swartsengagger/IMG_20140418_145632283_zpsc10d960a.jpg Belial http://i105.photobucket.com/albums/m213/swartsengagger/IMG_20140418_145621727_zpsdaf2dd7b.jpg And Asmodai http://i105.photobucket.com/albums/m213/swartsengagger/IMG_20140418_145641791_zps12fdd230.jpg I hope you'll like the paintings, did my best, but some things don't come out as good on photo unfortunately :( Anyway, 18 down, 85 terminators to go! And then I've still got all the others xD Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/289769-shadow-angels/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wraith776 Posted April 18, 2014 Share Posted April 18, 2014 Welcome back brother! I'm liking the scheme and the base job, much better then me. The brighter colours on the robes, faces and some bone parts are a bit much for me, perhaps a wash to darken them a little?

swartsengagger Posted April 18, 2014 Author Share Posted April 18, 2014 Thanks ^^ And about the brighter colours, that might have something to do with the flash on the camera. I should try to take some better pictures, or ask a friend who actually knows what they're doing. But I'm really glad you like the bases ^^ I took some inspiration from a video I saw a few weeks ago on youtube.
