Dark Angels Tactical Marines

Dark Angels Tactical Marine 4th Company

Well some of the figures so far have been a bit old so these are some of the later incarnations of space marine. Fairly standard iconography for them. All are from the 4th Company so have knee markings where these appear. Using the bolter in the standard Tarrantino fashion in the bottom figure. So accuracy is probably rubish. I use black for suit intersections and hoses, red for weapons and often a blue/grey for Dark Angels insignia. Pipes and conduits are in yellow to stand out.

Dark Angels 40k tactical marine bolter and bolt pistol

Since its been about 30 years of collecting Citadel miniatures, my brother and I have armies from most of the Warhammer range. He got rid of his 40k stuff some time ago, but I have Dark Angels, Imperial Guard, Chaos and Eldar. Warhammer armies are Dark Elves, Wood Elves, Empire, Skaven, High Elves, Dogs of War, and Slannesh. My brother has Dwarves, Orcs, Beastmen, Nurgle, Khorne and Tzeentch. So we cover most of them! I'll put some of them up at some point in the future.

Cheers

Wood Elf War Dancers

There are a number of warhammer armies that I have been collecting since Warhammer began really. Having moved house this was an opportunity to get some of them out of the attic and view them in more detail. The armies in my collection are Wood Elves High Elves Dark Elves Spotting a theme! Empire Chaos Warriors Skaven Dogs of War With significant collections of dwarves and orcs/gobbos. Plus lots of models I got just because I liked them. In terms of 40k Dark Angels (Main collection) Eldar Imperial Guard Chaos Marines I'll try and lay some out so I get more of them up, but this post is just about one unit. Wardancers I have only done half of them here, as I need to get the photography set up with a tripod for indoor work. Anyway, they follow the basic theme for my Wood Elf army, quite a bright green for most of the units with some being a bit more russet. Half my Wood Elf Wardancer Band Colour scheme is a lighter flesh, with bright green and bro...

Old Apothecary

I do have one of the new style ones that I need to paint up, but this is an original guy. Still have the White Dwarf article somewhere where they were introduced along with Imperial Guard Medics (have to finish and photograph that army at some point as well). The only Dark Angels iconography is in the painted pin shoulder pad. Uses a blue white rather than just using whites and greys. Dark Angels Apothecary

Legolas Greenleaf

Well got some of the first figures in from Ebay for the LOTR strategy battle game. They are a mixed bag and I am always amazed at how badly painted and prepared most of the figures are. It is as if no one has ever seen White Dwarf or the Games Workshop website and haven't a clue. Learn how to use a brush. The most overused and innacurate statement on Ebay for Games Workshop figures is Pro Painted! Anyway this is the first example, I am going to tackle, our little pointed ear friend Legolas Greenleaf, prince of Mirkwood and son to Tharanduil. He appears to have green hair in the figure that I have got, so much work to be done to turn him into a decent figure again. I got the whole Fellowship on their presentation stand as one of my first purchases and I will go through the reasons for which models I got in a future post.
