Charlo Posted September 27, 2015 Share Posted September 27, 2015 Started on my conversion of Rapier Quad Mortars from Kataphron servitors today - more in my WIP Thread as usual but here's a shot too: http://i1380.photobucket.com/albums/ah177/nevscorner/Snapchat-4267497423458529865_zpse5cm2pwm.jpg Riot Earp and CaptainHelion 2 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jolemai Posted September 28, 2015 Author Share Posted September 28, 2015 Anyone else see the Blood Moon last night? Obviously, the Emperor demands we paint Blood Angels! Praefectus Invictus, Brother Scruffy and j-smuv 3 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaptainHelion Posted September 28, 2015 Share Posted September 28, 2015 Literally the wrong side of the world, I'm afraid. But I have at least done some more painting Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spagunk Posted September 28, 2015 Share Posted September 28, 2015 2nd edition reclamation in progress.

Reldn Posted September 28, 2015 Share Posted September 28, 2015 Slowly shaking off my burnout and am contemplating digging out my company project and doing some more assembly. However, I'm not entirely certain if I'll carry it on as Blood Drinkers. Blindhamster and Dolchiate Remembrancer 2 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Charlo Posted September 29, 2015 Share Posted September 29, 2015 For those not in the WIP section, I finalised my Quad Mortar Design last night to some praise. Now I just need to buy 3 more Lascannons and mortars... Enjoy!

Charlo Posted September 29, 2015 Share Posted September 29, 2015 The bottom is a Kataphron Servitor, without the Servitor.. Going to magnetise it all to make it useable between armies :) Everything else is from the IG/AM heavy weapons sprue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Riot Earp Posted October 1, 2015 Share Posted October 1, 2015 Got some progress on my Knight. Now he needs som washes (on the metal) and some highlights here and there. base needs also basing.http://i1368.photobucket.com/albums/ag185/Slaughter3000/IMG-20151001-WA0000-1_zpsle2lvldt.jpg on Saturday i will ride against him with my tyranid army in a 12000 points game. he will be proxied for a chaos knight. the other super heavy will be a barbed hierodule. In the future he will support my blood angels in battle. LutherMax and Dolchiate Remembrancer 2 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KJB Posted October 5, 2015 Share Posted October 5, 2015 How much bling do you guys put on your tactical squads? Spread it around thinly? Or on every marine? I'm building a small force up and was thinking about mixing the BA tactical box up with the standard tactical squad (with a bit of Forge World MKIV thrown in for good measure) When I looked through the codex, everyone was blinged to the max Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evildrcheese Posted October 5, 2015 Share Posted October 5, 2015 Personally I think both the BA tac box and DC box need to be 'watered down' with other bits. Building them straight out of the box they look far too OTT for my taste... D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charlo Posted October 5, 2015 Share Posted October 5, 2015 Little bit of bling on the sarge, occasional shoulder pad on others if at all. I think out box makes an awesome Sternguard squad though... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Building them straight out of the box they look far too OTT for my taste... D Agree completely, I think 1-2 pieces per model is great for tactical/ assault marines. My sternguard, however are almost entirely BA parts. j-smuv 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Father Mapple Posted October 5, 2015 Share Posted October 5, 2015 I just finished doing the equivalent with the Deathstorm provided tactical terminators and the Blood Angel specific Assault Terminators. I used body/legs from one box with the arms/shoulders from the other. It looks good, won't take me 1000 years to paint (just 500) and they are very cohesive. Special models, like sergeants, flamers, and things got the "extra" special shoulders. I distributed the tabards and flair around a bit. They look ace.

Paikis Posted October 6, 2015 Share Posted October 6, 2015 I recently finished painting a tactical squad using just the Blood Angels' kit. It took a fair bit longer to paint than models with plain armour (generic kit) but I think it looks much better. Having said that, I certainly don't blame anyone who doesn't want to spend all that time painting ropes :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charlo Posted October 6, 2015 Share Posted October 6, 2015 DC take forever, even with minimal colours. I spent ages on them and there are still the odd bit of parchment or skull still in black undercoat... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spagunk Posted October 6, 2015 Share Posted October 6, 2015 RE: Bling. I tend to embellish tacticals more than other troops. Because the progression is Assault > Devs > Tacticals, I personally go with 2-3 pieces > 3-4 > 4+. Rarely am I decking out one tactical in full on BA gear though since aesthetically it looks too busy. Technically speaking, the newer the suit the less bling it has since armor is handed down after people die but that's more of a fluff thing.

Jolemai Posted October 6, 2015 Author Share Posted October 6, 2015 21 RTS models all stripped and repaired, ready for basing this week. Now where did I put my spare time...? Brother Scruffy and Dolchiate Remembrancer 2 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
