Great work, especially on the wings and his fur coat. And kudos on making a 99% golden armor look not boring

Thanks Viterbi! I fussed over the gold armour for a long time before starting not being able to decide between TMM or NMM for the gold. Glad I went the TMM route...might save the NMM for the other version with the demon base.

Thanks Tauist! Yup I always knew I had to paint one to add to the collection and finally decided to push through with it. Now all I have left are the hundreds of other first born marines before I can start on the primaris stuff...

Speaking of Firstborn, are you going to be adding the new Mk VI armoured ones to your collection? They should be out some time this summer..
I'm actually keen on seeing what you would do with them, since your BA army has always been a big source of inspiration for me (I'm slowly building a 100% Mk VI BA army).

Yes definitely will be adding the new MK6 beakies to the backlog. They will go nicely with the still to be painted MK3 and MK4 marines from the previous 2 boxsets
Think I might try to do a big batch paintjob of all of them at some point this year just to clear them off my list. I'll be sure to document the process when it comes up!

Still plugging away at my first born backlog and have been making some decent progress over the past month. A few more years and I'll finally be able to start on the Primaris!
First up is one of the OG terminator librarians. I've got a few old school models with the banner pole but no banner sticker. I understand the older models came with stickers that you can put on them and they were pre-printed. I ended up just painting up the models without any banners for now until the day I can get some banner references sized and printed out.
Next we have one of the last Terminator Librarians GW has produced that isn't a Primaris model now. I think he was meant to be an Adepticon special before COVID came along and cancelled all those plans. Got him as a MTO model from GW and happy with how he came out. I like to include at least one skull on all the bases of my HQ models and the great thing about him is he came with one pre-molded into the scenic base already!
Finally we have Captain Karlaen from the Deathstorm boxset who I finally painted up. Been so long that I'm no longer able to find named character rules for him so I suppose GW has put him as a regular terminator captain in the current edition.
Last we have the Baal Predator. This one is one from maybe 4th or 5ed edition which was made around 2003. Has the metal assault cannon, side flamer sponsons and BA gunner head bits and pre-dates the current full plastic kit. Now if I can only track down a 2nd edition Baal Predator to paint up my Baal Predator collection will be complete!

Thanks MegaDave! Yup the OG models have a certain charm to them with the added bonus of being easier and faster to paint.

I don't know that I've ever seen those before.
So... they're beautiful like all your work. I am particularly drawn to the cheek shading to nearly black. Really adds dynamism to the facial sculpts. Nicely done Egg.

Thanks muette! Took me years to get my process down and I'm still constantly making improvements/tweaks so don't be discouraged.

Thanks Gits! Yeah these guys used to be a Japan exclusive (think the idea of blind boxes are more popular there) and they eventually brought them to North America though in a smaller release with I think only 8 out of the original 13 models. I think Series 2 ( SM Terminators) and Series 3 ( CSM Plaguemarines) saw worldwide releases. Overall these weren't too popular as most people moved onto Primaris stuff by then but I'm just glad to have these in my collection for completeness sake

Update for the month of June:
Many years ago, I had painted my FW Chaplain dreadnought not knowing it was support to be a chaplain so it was done up in regular blood red colours. After finding out he should have been black, I took some time a few weeks ago to repaint the red parts in black and add new decals. Here's how he turned out:
Work for this month was to finish off a 10 man squad of Terminators I had primed and ready for a while now. These will be added to the 20 other terminators I painted earlier this year:
and the Ancient in terminator armour:
Got an order in for Age of Darkness along with the new deimos rhino and kratos assault tank. Can't wait till those show up!

Stunning work as ever - both the latest post and also the last couple of pages that I've just caught up on. I probably said earlier in the thread but I love the quality that you maintain on these despite the vast (and ever growing) size of the army, absolutely one of my favourite collections that I've seen on the boards.

Cracking job you've made on the SMH series models!
Can't wait to see your take on the Age Of Darkness box minis.

Thanks Bellerophon! Never imagined when I decided to collect Blood Angels that 12+ years ago that I would get so many models but here we are! Hoping to build out my collection to be one of the biggest BA collections!

Thanks tauist! Yeah, can't wait to crack open that box though I am conflicted as I haven't even started on my previous Betrayal at Calth and Burning of Propero boxsets.

Thanks Viterbi! I'm quite happy with how he came out and the black does look better on that model. I think when I first painted him in red someone mentioned he looked like a colourful parrot

My Age of Darkness boxset finally arrived along with a demios rhino and the kratos battle tank. Spent the last few evenings assembling the Spartan, Demios and Kratos. Love the way the new kits come together and how easy plastic is to work with compared to FW resin.
The Spartan tank kit seems to come with different sized doors - at least my FW land raider doors for the BA doesn't fit very well inside. Since the stock doors are quite bland and I don't want to utilize the iconography that's included with the kit, I decided to 3d design and print my own. Digitally kitbashed the doors along with a BA icon for the front door which came out very well:
Still need to do a design for the Demios Rhino side doors as I don't like the look of the FW version - that was the only FW BA door I didn't buy last time I was at Warhammer World as the design makes no sense to me...the icon literally prevents the doors from opening:
