Hey guys, I've been working on a project for another customer of mine. This time it's good old Blood Angels. For now it's 10 Sternguard, five Vanguard and five Sanguinary Guard.



First I did a test mini:

The customer approved enthusiastically so on we went. Only thing is that he prefers corroded metal on the meltagun rather than the green.





Here are some WIP pictures:

I haven't painted any regular Marines in a while and it's always good to some back. I'm not a Marine player myself, or at least haven't been in a long time, but there is something all-encompassingly cool about Marines in power armour. On a side note: Blood Angels indeed were my first army when I got into 40k. But then it was 2nd edition and the Blood Angels were all over the place (box cover, campaign book, and so on). First codex I got too.



Hope you like them!

I do like them, they look fantastic. Looking forward to the Sanguinary Guard.

@Asamodai: Cheers. These Sanguinary Guard were quite a lot of work. Funnily enough not on the golds as I expected beforehand but I wasn't aware how many bloody feathers they managed to stick onto their armour!




Quasi-finished Blood Angels:

Hope you like them!

Very nice. I particularly like the blade work on the sanguinary guards. It gives the effect of a highly polished or luminescent blade, which is very effective,
Great job.

@Tawa: Thanks very much!
@R_Squared: Thank you!


Hullo! This is no time lapse, it's just the really fully totally finished Blood Angels minis!

What changed is that I added some OSL around the eyes, finished the bases with these obsidian black rocks and added some Baal desert dust around the feet and tabards. :

Very cool. Personally I think the helmet crest looks a little odd on the MK6 helmet. That's the only thing I could possibly critique though. Your blades and metallics are particularly awesome.
