Helias_Tancred Posted November 2, 2021 Share Posted November 2, 2021 (edited) I've been wanting to upload my collection for a while now, and thanks to Jolemai's stellar instructions I was able to start this blog! Thanks Brother! Here I will post pics of all my painted Blood Angels models/units and I will add to it each time I finish a new one. I might also send up some battle pics as well. I do 3rd Company for my Blood Angels, and of course those from Chapter Command and the Archangels as needed. I've been doing a lot of the primaris units because their sculpts are so easier to paint (larger surfaces, etc) and they look amazing! I still have a few regular marines done and I plan to do the rest of them in time. I paint the units that I get the most gameplay from first over others in my collection. I've played Blood Angels from when I started the hobby back in 2012. I own around 14k worth of Blood Angels and around 11k worth of Dark Angels. I've owned, painted, and played Blood Angels, Crimson Fists, Dark Angels, and Grey Knights beginning at the end of 6th edition.... and I've found that whenever I stray from my Blood Angels, its never permanent, and my path always leads back to Baal. They are my ride or die lol. So let's start with chapter leadership.

Helias_Tancred Posted November 2, 2021 Author Share Posted November 2, 2021 (edited) The next up is The Sanguinor. I hope one day to see a new plastic model for him, and two, that he becomes our Lord of War with stats near or similar to Guilliman's. He is one of the first models I painted and there are parts of him that are sorta fugly but he doesn't get a lot of game play time lately and he still looks good from 2' or more away lol.

Helias_Tancred Posted November 2, 2021 Author Share Posted November 2, 2021 (edited) My chapter librarians. I'm still sitting on the primaris librarian, he's primed and on my short list to get finished. I take a more minimalist approach to my bases. I go a little more on my HQs and characters, but my regular guys are very simple. I also painted them to match my Realm of Battle board that I have, which is a more light gray with some spots of blue-green warp energy and corruption. I'll get some pics of the board up too ...

Helias_Tancred Posted November 2, 2021 Author Share Posted November 2, 2021 My Sanguinary Priests and Captain Karlaen. My minimalist generic basing are on my Sanguinary Priests. I know it's not for everyone. I coat the base with standard mech grey, then some nuln oil, then a dry brushing of dawnstone, administratum grey, and ulthuan grey. Done. The sides are steel legion drab. Karlaen's original Iron Halo broke and I needed a stand-in. He was also painted a long time ago back when I went with more wild rider red edge highlights, I've moved away from that now.

BloodyB Posted November 2, 2021 Share Posted November 2, 2021 (edited) That JP is a great conversion! Your Astorath is a great model too, I got one as a Christmas present the year it came out, and it has been a favourite of mine ever since. Â Edit: Ninja'd by OP, but so glad because Karlaen looks snazzy as well!

Helias_Tancred Posted November 2, 2021 Author Share Posted November 2, 2021 Captains! Logic says I should have gotten into using magnets long before I did. Case in point two of the exact captains instead of one lol. Of course good ol' Tycho since I do the 3rd Company, he was also my favorite character back when I got into the hobby and choose Blood Angels as my army but I hated him not having a visible Iron Halo .... Still love him even though he is long passed.

Helias_Tancred Posted November 3, 2021 Author Share Posted November 3, 2021 Thanks. Â My go to red on these guys are a base of chaos black spray, a spray of mephiston red ... then I shade with agrax, then its usually a top coat of evil sunz scarlet. The top coat is a combo of an edge highlight or a full covering depending what part and how it looks? Â It seems right now there is a split in how to paint techmarines with either an armor base of Khorne Red (old) or Mephiston Red (new). I've always preferred the darker maroon look (Khorne Red) especially since most of my army is based in Mephiston Red.

BloodyB Posted November 6, 2021 Share Posted November 6, 2021 Loved the Primaris ancient, and the green on that Techbois grav pistol was very nice. Â But my favourite bit was the first on the Sanguinary Ancient. That one made me get my own paints out for a whirl, really good work.
