Hey ...... Ive been playing 40k for 20 years or so ... Ive been waiting for a new blood angels codex for a long time.. Ive played a lot of different armys over the years.. here are some picts of some of my new army. Tell me what you guys think!! .. Some of the models arent exactly legal ... but they counts as most of the time..


A few squads lined up...




Second Super Raider ready for wash....





Started on the rest of the Preds .....





Some shots of DAnde,The Sang,Az,Meph,and Tyco.....

Wow those land raider are crazy lol! All in all everything looks good.

really nice man
love the raiders
everything thats bigger than the original is cool

cheers

Thanks ! ... so far I have 10k points painted. Been gathering this stuff a while now ..

t t t t t 10k?

Win. Those raiders are nice, and a fair few assault squads

First thought "WOW!"
...then i saw the second picture :O
That is cool as!

Holy cow... do all of those marines have those pointy heads? (corvus pattern if memory serves...)

LOL yeah ... a little over 10k ..... thanks for all the positive comments guys !! ... yeah all they guys in me army have Beakie/Corvus heads ... Ive really liked them for a long time. Here are some more picts ..... tell me what you guys think !!!













Thanks again for lookin at this stuff ... hope you guys like it ...

awsome dude!!!!

Very nice. I'm especially liking the sanguinary guard in red. That's not something I've seen too often but I think it looks pretty darn good there.

Sweeeet thanks guys .... you guys rock !! just makes me want to build more stuff. The Sang guard are really my conversions of the HQ units out of the sang guard bodies. let me see if i have a better pict of them ....

Dantae,Tyco,Sangunar,Mepheston,Azaroth... altho I could make new ones and use these as the guard .... hummmmm

I'm loving the terminators with missile pods on their shoulders, AND duel wielding a pair of assault cannons...

Apparently they're firm believers in the ancient maxim

"You just cant have too much Dakka."

Any particular reason you put jump packs on your bikes?

LOL .... hecks yeah !!! ... that just have to be my sig !!

Yeah i just like the JP look on the new armor ... they really don't do anything in the game ..... just look cool ? lol

"You can't have too much DAKKA!!"

Ahh, okay, missed that among all the pictures. Still works really well.

Awesome !! thanks man !! ..... These picts arent really in any order ...... I will post more in a few.. I really like the new sang models ..... well cept maybe the over pronounced nippage ..

Here are some picts of the dreads .......

these are just block painted....





after clearcoat ...



Termies before clear-coat....


and after wash and clear.....



Some Chaps ....







And some Libys .....

Vaguely reminiscent of Crunk Marines, what with the Land Raider limo and the Pimp Cup. Honestly, that's a rather impressive force you've spread out, there. Thanks for the pics.

I'm not normally a fan of extra-tall dreads, but with the reverse-joint legs you pull that off pretty well too. I especially like the creative use of the backpacks as toes and joints!

Damn, that's some clean painting right there!

WOW thanks guys !! It keeps growing too ... lol ... Yeah ... its hard to do tall dreads and thanks for noticing the bac packs as toes !! .. lol The raiders I was looking for a cheaper way to make a quad godhammer / command post version.... ive seen a 3 raider version on the net and it looked awesome !!... I just wanted to try with 2 raiders . Thanks guys !! all the C&C are great !!!

Termies with jump packs? We're f'd…

lol yeah ... just imagine if they really worked in the game ... if all that tonnage lands outa control ..... on me head ...... OUCH !!!

Your army is really cool. I like the fact that you use your imagination and creativity to make a special and unique army.

Thanks a Ton !! with this army i wanted to make something a bit different ... i mean i like the models as they are supposed to go together ... I just wanted to be a bit unique ... LOL ... The bases i molded myself. They are in a series of 50 ... so I can do 50 guys and not one base will repeat. I still have some work to do to them tho... need to add grass and the such ...

All the comments you guys are giving is really great !! ... thanks for lookin at me stuff !!! you guys are awesome !!

A random priest ..... and before paint a group shot ...




A few more of the MCP .....







Hope you guys like these ... let me know if there is something else you guys would like to see from the army so far !!!


Thanks again for lookin at all this !!

Really nice stuff.
However, I notice your dreads lack jumppacks, whats up with that?
(Nah, just kidding , this all looks really really great. Keep at it!)

Yeah, dread-packs ftw, seriously that is one of the best armies i've seen, especially for it's (your) imagination and of course jump-pack'd to the max. tell me tho how did you get that many corvusses (corvai?)
Just noticed the gunner on the front of the Land raider doubles, that's really cool!

i would like to see some WIP pics of your streched limo landraiders... i would love to see how you pulled that off...

and by the way what sum did you invest to get that amount of minis...???
your a big spender man^^

and although i am not a fan of BA tehre is the old saying: everything counts in large amounts^^



vik

Wow what kind of product did you use to do the reds? especially the LR

@Fayric: .... DOH !!! thats what i forgot !! ... LOL if you look close .... (i need to get some better picts up of them .. I will in a few..) They have jump jets even ... and the legs have HUGE shock absorbers on them .... not that the game supports it ... but thought it would be kinda cool. and thanks for the kind words man !!!

@General: .... The Beakies ive been collecting for decades literally .... they used to come in a box of 30 marines ... all of had them ... love those things Thanks for the cudos man !! makes me wanna build more !!


@Vik: .... bah im not really a big spender ... ive been collecting for 20 years .... this is the culmination of a DEEEEEEEP bits box dive Ill get the few wip of the raiders i have up in a few. Yeah .... strength in numbers !! Thanks man ...

@LunaHound: ..... i base em in medium gery primer ... then spray them with Krylon satin .... Colonial Red ... then just block paint the details ... then wash with babab black mixed with a bit of common brown ink from the art store ... indian that is .... then dull clear over everything... Thanks for the interest... Im more than happy to share the way ive come up with all this anytime !!!



Thanks again you guys !!! more picts to come !!!

Build. build to your hearts content! more stuff for us to look at!
