Task Force Armageddon

...took a number of shortcuts painting them -I didn't even highlight my bolters.

umm... dude, you said you spen like three hours on each model, if your gonna spend that much time you may as well do it properly.

 

they're still freakin' awsome though!

 

the only problem I have is chaplain#2's grail looks weird, and how is he gonna attack with that arm?

Here's a few more pics of my Chaplain. Initially I had planned a head swap for this model, but when the new Cassius model was released, I liked the look, so the head remained. Like Cassius, my Chaplain has taken a lot of abuse over the years so I thought that a more 'augmented/repaired' look was apropos.

In this pic you can see part of the Chaplain's skull revealed as well as more of the piping and wires.

Just a quick "?" for you Mr. Koyote, Wylie J. ;)

 

How did you paint the tabbard on your chaplain? I have tried to get the same effect but cannot pull off the smooth blending of the white and undercoating of brown. And what shade of white is that? Skull, Bleached?

I don't know if an overall army pic will be that spectacular. How about some squad pics instead?

 

This is my 10 marine Devastator squad (9th squad). These guys do the shoot'n.

These guys carry the extra ammo and for some inexplicable reason, always seem to die first. ;)

OMG: The sergeant has just detected infiltrating Wolf Scouts sneaking up behind the Devastators and he's yelling at me, "Why don't you arm me with a power weapon instead of this stupid auspex?!?! This always happens when we fight Space Wolves!" :D

;) funniest thing i've heard today.

Actually, isn't your sgt yelling at your Devies to get back behind that cover they just left after Blood Ragin' for the 6th consecutive turn?

 

Maybe so.

 

Instead of blasting the heretics with their missile launchers my Devastators 'raged' on the last turn of game 5. This cost me the game and was responsible for my only loss at the GT this year. ;)

 

Oh well. There is always LA... :D

Or was it the "composition" of the raging units you had that led to your poor showing in Seattle?????

 

Now that is just mean... But hey, what are friends for? :unsure:

 

Actually, my post was lamenting my win/loss record, not my overall score, but thanks for reminding me.

 

 

*Hmmm? There doesn't seem to be an emoticon giving the finger. Too bad.*

My Blood Angel Scouts are the only squad in my army that does not belong to the Third Company. Please excuse the poor photo quality.

 

This is my 10 marine Scout squad.

Yes, I know I used the scout sergeant model twice, but I dig the model.

And here we have one of my 'shooty' Tactical squads (6th squad).

Sadly, as my good friend Lance pointed out my comp score wasn't so great in the GT so I have plans to replace this Tactical squad, my Scout squad and my Attack Bikes with two Baal Predators and two Land Speeders in an attempt to make my 'all infantry' army appear like a more typical Blood Angel army (i.e. mobile firepower). I may also toss the grail. :unsure:

And here we have my 10 marine assault squad in its entirety.

 

All but two of the marines in this squad have hand painted squad badges (8th squad).

If I had to remake this squad from scratch, I would be more mindful of the poses and mix in a few standing legs to depict models landing or preparing to jump.

This is one of my two, 10 marine "tactical" Tactical squads (2nd squad). In some of my squads I skimped a bit on the squad badges as the 'greaved' legs make painting squad badges more difficult. I did however hand paint the skulls on four squad members of this squad with knee pads.

I feel that the multi-melta & melta gun combo is a very flexible and hard hitting combo. The lighting in this photo makes the multi-melta look much darker than it really is.

Not much to say about these guys. The photos look dark, but it may just be my monitor here at work.
