Gander's Blood Angels


Recommended Posts

So after purchasing the new AoD box I had to think what legion(s) I wanted to paint. Though about adding to my large Death Guard army but decided I wanted a change and eventually opted for the 9th Legion.

So I present the command Squad of the 14th Company of the IXth Legion;

(I'm more of a painter and not a gamer but I am aware that some imagery such as the chalice on the chainsword may not be consistent with 30K lore but I'm going with the rule of cool here)

These are great. I don't know what it is, but they have a really 'classic' feel to me, like I'm looking at a White Dwarf from 15+ years ago. That's a compliment I should say, because that time period was my formative Warhammer years - muchos nostalgia from those times!

Marvelous looking Blood Angels! The legion specific upgrades and kitbashes really make them look very different from the stock kits. 

I'm looking forwards to seeing more of these awesome angels.

I added some different armour marks to my tacticals. That brings them up to 15. I plan to mix and match armour parts for the last five. (Someone is going to notice the mark four guys have mark three legs. All the forge world mark three legs I have look so thin and weedy now. I'll maybe use them for recon marines or scouts.)

 

I also made the bases a millimeter taller to compensate for the slightly larger scale of the AoD box marines.

Real nice work - the leather shade you've gone for work really well with the red also. My only critique would be that they've all found a convenient piece of tactical rubble to stand on - like they're playing the Floor is Lava 40,000 - having some variation in height might be cool also, like some on the ground, one leg stepping onto the rock etc?
