gainsay Posted May 14, 2015 Share Posted May 14, 2015 I was doing a google search and came across a post on bell of lost souls about games day canada 2008. There are pics of the models from assault on black reach and there is a random pic of this Blood angel model. I was not playing back then. Was this guy ever released? http://belloflostsouls.net/wp-content/uploads/2008/06/BloodAngel.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/307624-rare-ba-model/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
JeffTibbetts Posted May 14, 2015 Share Posted May 14, 2015 At first I thought it was a Tyrannic War Veteran, but it's def got BA iconography. I'm not familiar with it. And that cast looks like it could be a recast, based on the shiny texture of the resin. Maybe a dupe of a custom model? EDIT: I also just noticed the purity seals on the banner, which are almost certainly added bits and then recast. Look at the weird angle... Hmmmm...

Brother-Chaplain Kage Posted May 14, 2015 Share Posted May 14, 2015 I remember seeing something about that back in '08, done by Juan Diaz, and the general consensus was that it was one of those practice models or something that never went into production for one reason or another. Diaz has a Dark Eldar figure with a similar story floating around out there.

gainsay Posted May 15, 2015 Author Share Posted May 15, 2015 Yeah def not a recast as the model was at games day. Shame cuz it's a sweet model. Kinda looks like blood questy. One thing that bugs me about the BA kits now they all have the same emo teenager hair cut! Still cooler than the old farts from fenris ;)!
