Haven't got a lot done on these guys yet, they are being ran as a successor that is in direct relation to the Flesh Tearers, hence the slightly altered chapter symbol prominent on the side of the Land Raider. Well, here is the goodies, remember C&C is MOST welcome ^^
First up is my Dcompany Dreadnaught with Magna Grapple and Blood Talons.
Here is the LRC side hatch with chapter iconography as well as some other views.
Next are some of the BA special characters in varying states of completion.
Gabriel Seth
Chaplain Lemartes
The Sanguinor
Counts as Mephiston (i hate the actual Meph model, and in the process of writing some fluff up for this guy) He is wysiwig except for the Hood.
Lots more images are in the gallery, again please feel free to comment on any/all of the images, and please remember to vote if you view the images. Thanks again!

I like this. Not so hot for the 'Pew pew' insignia, but that's just me.
Your paint jobs are excellent. Truly phenomenal.
Question though...is part of the chaplain's face green? If so, why? It isn't bad, just left me a little confused, that's all.
I love the vehicles, by the way. Most people just leave those big open spaces blank. Nice to see someone doing something with them. Also, that 'counts as' fig is out of this world.

Lemartes' face does indeed have green on it, i was trying out OSL *object source lighting* for the first time, and wanted it showing from the eyes. Didn't turn out too hot but when viewed from a slight distance it doesn't look as bad. I have done some on his shoulderpad with the skull as well. Guess i need some more practice on it all lol. But thank you VERY MUCH for the awesome comments! Makes me feel good to know some one likes my work ^^
And as for the "pew pew" banner on the assault cannon lol, it was mainly an inside joke between me and a buddy.

Thanks! I recieved the dreadnaught as a horrible conglomeration of paint, guck, *is that a word lol* and yuck, it cleaned up nicely thankfully. Both of the arms were built using leftover killa kan parts ^^, so i guess i reverse engineered orky konstrukshun?

Rampaging Furioso Blood Angel Dreadnought

Kickass dread dude. You should definitely be proud to hit the table with this army.
My only criticism might be the Sanguinor's face... though you did say some of these were WIP ...and the writing on the top of the landraider looks a little crazy - but otherwise I am really digging these models.
Love the scratch on the side of the raider...

Thanks again! Well, the sanguinor is basically done. I however despise the entirety of the head on this model, but yet don't want to cut on it any and replace it. And seeing as basically Flesh Tearers helms are typically black as are the shoulders i tried to keep with it seeing is his head is basically a mask/helm thingy.......... very odd to say the least. But i vowed i would put no "gold armored pansies", in my army lol. *inside joke*

These look pretty good! The detail is a little rough up close, but from further out they just look awesome!
Kudos on taking thsoe steps into uncomfortable territory with OSL, and other techniques. Many of them are paying off well, even if the details still need a little work. The thing I like most about these figs is the stark contrast. I think it gives them a very striking appearance overall.
Keep it up! This army is going to look fantastic once completed.

Yeah, uncomfortable step is an understatement lol. I think what i really need to start practicing is my blending from baseshade to highlight. I enjoy the stark contrast with each other but, the overall model would benefit from a smooth shade..... anyways thanks for the comments! Keep em comin!

...urrrr... I dunno

I think the chaplain is intense. He looks a great deal like he wishes to leap from the picture and tear out my greenskin-playing throat, before telling me to play a "proper" army. Really good job on it all, I really like the work on the Dread (those drills. Those DRILLS) and "Mephiston" who is a really good conversion/paintjob/everything.
Good show!

Thank You all! Makes me feel good knowing fellow wargamers enjoy my work. As stated each model aside from the dreadnaught is in differing states of WIP, so they will be finished in due time. I will continue to update the thread with future works other than those shown already if everyone would like. Plz remember to vote! lol

I'll second that the dread is stupid awesome. You've achieved the ever coveted so silly it works level. Where did the drill arms come from btw? Wouldn't mind trying to make my dreads look a bit more unique as well.

The drill arms actually came from some left over killa kan bitz and gubinz, basically cut off *the rokkits i think>* and placed the drill CC weapons in their place. I just really wanted something different for bloodtalons, as everyone and their uncle seemed to be doing typical stuff you would expect but, idk. And not saying any of the other blood talons conversions out there are bad; far from it actually, i enjoy seeing all the ideas that pop up. That goes for the magna grapple as well, i had the image of this + shaped "magnet" thats suuuuuuper strong and glowy.... why is it glowy, well.... idk, but i liked the image i had in my noggin lol. Anyway thanks again for the kind compliments!

Love the pew pew banner. That's damn funny.
Land Raider looks great all around, the freehand (it is right?) looks amazing.
Drills for Blood Talons is epic. Where did you get those anyway? EDIT: haha, I need to read more.
The characters look pretty good so far. Chaplain Lemartes looks a little wonky in his face though, the green light is a little far down his face to be coming from his eyes, imho.
All around great work.
