Armies on Parade. Blood Angels of the Andromache Sector

[gideon stargreave]

This weekend I managed to add a little more texture and detail to the terrain box 

[gideon stargreave]

I threw some spray paint all over so that I can see what I’m doing for the last stages of the build. I will go over everything to make sure there aren’t blobs of spackle or glue, then add some more narrative elements

Im taking part in an inq28 event in autumn, so took a break from the terrain to mock up this beautiful lady

I’ve always been interested by the red thirst. We know so much about the black rage, and ever since the loose definitions in 2nd it has pulled my attention. So here we have a monster from the tower of amareo.

A blood angel and his retinue for inquisitor

Underpainting on the warbands. I use fluoro Vallejo paints and water them down. I think this gives a nighttime effect without me having to paint them very dark.

Very atmospheric

Thanks! I just realised I put this photo in the wrong thread. I need to tidy it up some day. More blood angells soon

My local warhammer is doing a mini armies on parade on A5. Here is my WIP entry.

Oils on. Just some last touches left

Looks good - it has a very nice sense of atmosphere to it.

Thanks so much! I learned a lot doing my inquisition stuff

I need some help! What colour should I paint the frame? Black? Gold? 

[Firedrake Cordova]

I'm not sure I can see a frame in the image?

:cuss: you’re right, it’s so dark in the photo you can’t even see any of it. I’ll upload a new one later

I’m almost done with this blood angel for mini armies on parade. Just a few details to finish up

The Red Thirst. 

[Firedrake Cordova]

I'm really liking The Red Thirst

All finished with this mini army on parade. It was tremendous fun working on this, and really interesting further exploring a traditional horror in blood angels. 

Some individual shots 

And top down to see the trapdoor. You have to have a trapdoor in a haunted castle 

[Firedrake Cordova]

I think that came together very nicely

Thanks! It was such a good project, and really nice return to last year’s grimdark/ art scale blood angels but with a slightly different twist
