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

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.

Slannesh Warhammer Army

As mentioned before have built up quite a few Games Workshop armies over the years, and one that I have for Warhammer is the that of the Slannesh Chaos Champion Valsav of the Hrud. Yet again since it has been built up over time it has a number of old models in it as well as some of the newer ones. So for example the Chaos Lord incarnation of Vaslav is the latest Chaos Slannesh hero, but the Demon Prince alternative uses the original Keeper of Secrets. I also have some of the first Chaos Warriors from the first box set in there. Below are two figures, mostly finished although the bases need more work. A Chaos Warrior and a Marauder. The Chaos Warriors are using a basic black scheme for speed of painting whilst the Marauders unifying element is the red and white shield design. Warhammer Chaos Warrior Slannesh Chaos Marauder

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
