Some paint in progress of Ezekiel,

That's looking awesome. Great conversion. 

 

I absolutely despise conversion work myself, but seeing something like this really does tempt me.

 

Personally I'd like to put Ezekiel with Inner Circle Companions. I think he could do well there. I know most like the Judiciar in there, but this could be a cool combo too.

I'm taking part in the Knives in the Shadows Kill Team Event, and have completed an Angels of Absolution Kill Team fo it,

 

 

Strike Force Baradiel was assembled to assist an Unforgiven Task Force in responding to a distress transmission from the Inviolate Rage, flagship of the Heralds of Devastation, crashed upon Vatarus, a planet beyond the Eastern Rim, within the Voltronus Sytem. As the Founding Chapter of the Heralds of Devastion, the Angels of Absolution had a vested interest in the fate of the Chapter, perhaps in recording the cause of their demise, or aiding in their continued survival. Captain Baradiel of the 5th Company volunteered to select a squad of his best and make haste to the Voltronus System. With which challenges they would face unknown, Baradiel selected a wide range warriors from all the squads in his company, each a master of their own weaponry of choice. Ultimately the Inviolate Rage was lost to Xenos interferance, Chaotic machinations, and the re-awakining of a Pho'tekh Dynasty Tomb world, however, the Heralds of Devastation Chapter Master, Variel and a few hundred Heralds were saved from the same fate as the Inviolate Rage.

 

 

Spoiler

 

Captain Baradiel of the 5th Company is a veteran of five centuries service, the last 275yrs as Captain of the 5th Company. Baradiel spent most of his service in the 8th Assault Company, honing his mastery of all melee weaponry and skills. His preference for close quarter combat is still apparent in his choice of wargear, a power fist and plasma pistol. 

 

 

Company Veteran Sarpestus is a member of Captain Baradiel's Command Squad. Sarpestus is an umatched sniper, and ranged combat specialist, and relishes every opportunity to forgo his Tacticus armour for his Eliminator vestments. 

 

 

Brother Kaveiol's preferred place is on the battlefield with a Heavy Bolter in his gauntlets, and a mass of foes before him. Although experienced and skilled enough to lead, he does not seek the responsibility of leadership, and chooses to remain a Brother within the 10th Support squad.

 

 

Veteran Sergeant Adontris is 1st Sergeant of the 5th Company's Tactical Squads. With a keen mind for battlefield tactics, he is sure to find his future within the command structure of the Chapter.

 

 

Brother Zephrael's weapon of choice is the Auto-boltrifle, with which can maintain 100% accuracy, even when firing on full-auto.

 

 

A master of fire arcs, angles, and ricochets, there is no safe place from Brother Matthaeus' grenade launcher.

 

 

Veteran Sergeant Zakariah is Adrontris' polar opposite, where Adontris is taciturn, Zakariah is fuelled by piety and rage, the fury of his assaults have broken uncounted enemy combatants time and time again. It is rumoured he even survived melee combat with the infamous World Eater, Khârn the Betrayer.

 

 

Brother Toriel is an expert at providing support and cover to his squad, either with devastatingly accurate pistol fire, or by accurately dispensing one of his myriad of grenades.

 

 

Brother Gemoran is Zachariah's protege, and will always be found at Zachariah's side in the thickest of combat. He is a consummate swordsman relying on precision to best his enemies, and is renowned within the 5th Company for returning from battle without a scratch on his armour.

 

 

Although a very competent warrior on foot, it is in the air, born aloft on a jump-pack that Brother Nathaniel's expertise is brought to the fore.
