Scars of Rangdan

So I did some painting overhaul to redo my Spartan from the over chipped version I had before:

Not as done or fully blinged as I want it yet, so stay tuned.

Waiting on pads and helmets to replace for the squad so I can finally paint them :)

Dude, the model with the champions sword is awesome. I can see him running and cleaving some poor bastard in two.

He kills traitors, not because of their allegiance, but because it brings satisfaction to his war weary heart.

I love it man. Reminds me of the Templar on their old codex. Part of me wants to fork out money for running Mk III, but I'm trying to do the whole thing in plastic this time around. 

Thanks a bunch guys,

 

I originally had his arms a bit lower but due to my correspondence with Marshal Rohr, he advised me to move the arms up. It was a stunning difference as it looked like this particular Dark Angel Veteran was about to lay into his foe.

 

I know I'm not much of a converter, it's pretty limited to intuitive kitbashing, but I really liked how I was able to pull off an individual feel that the veterans have. Irregular gear, fluid poses in contrast to the regimented tacticals, attention to the world around them instead of their sergeant...

 

The models were a blast to put together as if agonize over each individual detail, bit, or head angle. Some astute observers may notice how some of them have changed slightly. Like my terminators, I feel each of them should tell a story of how they survived when others had not.

 

Also, I became crazy enough to paint all the rivets and do different weathering:

The 50 some odd rivets drove me crazy, but I knew it wasn't as bad as Athrawes and his Warlord Titan...but everyone knows he's a mad nutter since he likes the warp and all...

Speaking of Athrawes, we had a friendly 2500 point game today. Here's some snapshots (I was trying to only get painted models in >_<):

It was a nail biting game with my walking Leviathan doing a phenomenal job, not to mention the Fellblade absolutely ripping into half of Athrawes units. He was a gentleman and a sport and I can't wait to play some heresy apocalypse alongside him.

 

Victory to the First! Victory to the Lion!

Bad ass!

 

I'm a fan of the oh-so-subtle weathering, and the overall shade you've achieved works very well with the cloth. White on back can get tricky -- it's a hell of a contrast, but you've managed the scheme well.

 

Very cool to see a special DA unit before FW does its thing.
