Hi All
I have been working on my Blood angels and have added 2 baal preds at christmas and now 3 storm ravens and a furioso/librarion dread.
The stormravens are still being painted and i magnetised the side sponsons so i can take them on or off. I also have not glued the dreads front on so i can swap between furioso and chaplain as needed. the new furioso kit is great i used the 3rd chest for the death company on my old death company dread - it was a complete pain cutting off the original front of the dread but the new death company one is so much better, just got to finish painting that too.
what do you think so far?

Yeah.
I like what I see.
Some close ups would be nice.
; )

I wish to have such a force once.
Really impressive.

cool.

some close ups as requested. still working on the ravens and dreads

Looks good! I like those vindicators.

Really nice.
I like them a lot.

Something tells me I've told you before, but you forgot to paint the eagles above the 'window' on the dozer blades

the close ups are older pics. if you look in the main pics they are painted.

I tried highlighting a LR once. Finished 3/4 of it before I gave up.

Kudos on doing that for an entire force! Well done!

That's awsome.
I justed started the painting on my BA Vindicator.

a couple more pics, the ravens are detailed some more and the dreads have some details also.

Wow great army lucky rich bastard :p looks great!

Any chance you can show me were you mangmatised the guns so I know were to do mine thanks!

here are pics of the sponson magnetization. the magnets are drilled in to the ends of the sprue, they are 2mm by 2mm magnets. make sure you place the sprues at the top of the sponsons. it works best there as the bottom of the sponson is secure enough.

As for the rich comment lol. I sold a load of my orks to get the ravens and dread. still have more orks going in the trade forum.
the titan was joint birthday presents and some saving up. my christmas and birthday lists for the past 2 years have been GW entirely.

Thank you so much great job

It is amazing how fast you were able to paint 3 storm ravens to an acceptable table top standard! Great work!

Very nice work- love the way you magnetized the sponson weapons for the chibi hawk!

thanks for hte feed back everyone.
I have been doing a couple of hours a night on them, its a batch painting nightmare with 3 or 6 of everything.
finally finished magnetising the stormravens today. they now have magnetised wings, top air intake, sponsons and turret weapons and covers. the front weapons are interchangable inthe kit, so now all weapon load out options are possable.
just got to paint the servitors and base them and they are basically finished.

Yea ur army is great!

Solid effort bruv'. I'm still at a loss at why you need that many tanks.

Some great Blood Angels there! I am currently painting up my Stormraven and Furioso at the moment! Was contemplating magging the front plate, but i'll never use a libby dread i reckon! Managed to find a good bits dealer on ebay so i can at least make the torsos of the other two models in the pack! Just need to find some dreadnought legs!!!

you my friend are missing some bitz great army

Nice work!

Always a pleasure to see other peoples armies! (Specially when they're BA's!)

thanks for all the feedback.
I have finished basing the stormravens and have now gone back to the troops to finish basing them.
also got another sanguinary priest to complete my 3 stormraven list.
managed to play 2 games last night with my 1500pt and 2000pt 3 stormravens lists and they are great fun. won both games but to be honest 1 was versus necron so he was at a disadvantage with his 4th ed codex and the other was against a vindicator and rhino ultramarines list which was too slow to do anything major to the ravens as they stayed back launched 12 bloodstrikes and lots of las to knock them out.
looking forward to playing some more with the ravens
