Well, I've been the go to guy for odd jobs, and just general storage of warhammer stuff. Hence the lack of general direction to this blog. Most of my stuff will be the red and white of the Angels Malignant (my chapter) and the fluff below is what I'm trying to accomplish with my army. I'm not very good, and I get bored easily so basically everything is a WIP. Well, have fun.

(here's the fluff of the angels... read at your own peril)

The Angles Malignant are a penitent chapter, who believe that only by understanding, and subsequently destroying, the enemies of the emperor, can they understand , and subsequently destroy their inner demons.

This philosophy was gained on the streets of Plathrias, their Former home world. At that time they were a new chapter, Their first company only 50 years old, when the hives were attacked. Darkness covered their home, and for days flares of drop pods fell from the sky, as the night lords fell upon them. The first weeks were a massacre, the local PDF forces were savaged by heresy, desertion, and the unrelenting guerrilla raids by the night lords. after several months of brutal fighting, even the Fortress Monastery, still under construction, was burning. But the Angels malignant did not tire, their senses became keener, and they learned how to infiltrate deep into enemy positions, their bright armor doing nothing to hinder them. They learned to move with speed through the crowded hives, leaving behind bikes, which had difficuly maneuvering, and Landspeeders, which could neither climb, nor capture key targets, in favor of jump packs. Using stealth, guerrilla raids, they began to push back their enemies. After 12 long years of hunting, they finally removed the last of the vestiges of chaos from their planet. But the cost was great, their world lay in ruins around them, and trillions were dead. So, to a man, they left Plathrias, taking what was left of the populations in great ships, and began their wandering.

Now, 300 years later, they have regained their full strength, and have earned many laurels. They are able to employ, not only specialist space marine companies, but vast regiments of Imperial guard, who share many of the specialist qualities that the Angles malignant hold so dear. Often, these guard regiments will fight alongside the companies of the space marines, or individual squads will serve alongside their allies, complementing the fury of the Angels Malignant, with the proud guns of the Shadow of Plathrias.

In their battles, Commanders lead from the fore, commanding elite squads of assault marines in order to quickly respond to any situation. In addition, though the Angels malignant do not utilize tanks as much as other armies, (though maybe more than the Blood Ravens) Techmarines also are a common sight amongst the assault marines of the Angels. They attempt to gain first hand knowledge about alien artifices, so that new, more effective weapons may be forged. This has put them at odds with the Adeptus Mechanus on many occasions, but the aid of the Angles Malignant in gaining several precious tech templates has served to somewhat smooth the tension. The Angles' philosophies have also set them at odds with the Ordo herectus, who have tried on many occasions to organize support for their extermination. However, The strong alliances that the Angels' enjoy with both the Ordo Malleus, and the ordo Xenos has served to defeat this threat to their sovereignty. Indeed, The grey knights have a permanent station aboard the Choir of Angels the fortress ship of their chapter, and the Angels also boast a high number of permanently acquisition instructors amongst the Ordo Xenos.

The Angels Malignant are host to a huge variety of specialist, and though they are almost chapters unto themselves, they are able to fight with cohesion, whether the red and gold of the assault marines sect, the red and black of the heavy support sects, or the red and white of the tactical sects, all of the Angels Malignant work towards one goal: the extermination of the corruption in the hearts and minds of men.


(/fluff)

Anyways... I've been working on a bunch of random stuff, but the only thing I have pictures of right now is the Land raider that I fixed up for my friend ( who later gave it to me ) and some of his terminators that I've been painting


Obviously very WIP... but I felt that I should post something up here... even if it's crap

more to come soon... I hope

I like the contrast, it breaks up the smurfiness of a regular ultra marine army.

Also, my friend wanted me to do 6th company, and having terminators seconded to the 6th seemed like a good idea

Well, back again after a long hiatus of about... 48.2 seconds... here is more of the angels malignant

Note, these pictures are not posted with any regard to organization so if there any questions, please ask.

Also, nothing that I show you is done... nothing... and most of the stuff that I post is not only not done, but so far away from a state of doneness that it is... well I lost my train of thought but yeah... all is WIP here... unless I state specifically otherwise.

This is the first guy that I started painting for 40k... and as such he is the closest to being done, not done... but close.... him and a marneus calgar that I did for my friend

I'd also like to say that this guy looks way better in person... and that I'm still looking for good lighting for my pictures... the guy isn't great, but the camera doesn't do him justice

dude... that Ultramarine's symbol is crap

also, the little nub on the back of the carnifex head is supposed to be a vertebrae sticking out... it looks better now that it's primed... kinda

also, that weird blue smudge like thing on the guy's chest is the rest of the carnifex's tusk that pierced the armor... yeah... it will look cool if I can spontaneously learn how to paint decently sometime soon

"dude... that Ultramarine's symbol is crap"

If the author sez it's crap then i can offer some constructive CC too.
The way you've posed him is bad, rather than draw attention to both models and link them together as part of the same scene you've posed the marine to not be facing the head and it separates them as two different stories.
And if a marine just slew a carnifex you'd expect him to triumphantly stand atop the head and yell or something, not just happily stroll past his battle honor. Also i'm wondering how me managed to so cleanly behead the 'fex with only a power fist.

He pulled its head off

Also, the idea is that the hero is so amazingly bad@$$ that he has no need to draw attention to the fact that he just killed a carnifex, because he knows he will be killing several more before the day is done.

but, I'l see how it looks with the changes suggested

Alright, I've become less than enthusiastic with my current color scheme of White, red and gold (with some random black bits)... so I have decided to change the fluff a little bit.

Instead of just the angels malignant, My space marine chapter will be remnants of destroyed chapters that unite to keep themselves from extinction. The angels malignant have the greatest presence, but there are representatives from several different chapters.

I'm doing this for several reasons: one i get to try out lots of different paint jobs, so i won't get bored (hopefully). It also gives me a fluff oriented reason to take everything from tanks to assault marines, and everything in between.

Here are a few of the color schemes that I've come up with with the order being: 1st) Main color 2nd) trim 3rd) accent color

sunburst yellow, black, turqoise

Lich Purple, Bleached bone, gold

Bone, Snot green, Gold
