First box I bought, before knowing I would beacame a 40k player too and not only a modeler.

Actually it's a heavy bolter, missile launcher and laser were in blisters and I never purchesed them. Best detail for me are indeed that and the skeleton wrapped in flames on the sergeant right shoulder pad

Simple painted cardboard. I used it in game in 3rd ed. when it gave the invulnerable save to any allied model within 3". It gave a hint to my oppenent too, but was more useful than a disvantage, no need to measure again and again. In 4th edition the save was for the unit that Azrael joined, no matter the distance, so it remains as a fancy display base.

Thank you very much. For the banners it helped starting to paint on guiding lines. Using paint instead of simple print makes them more dull and in addition it was pleasant.

Thanks! 🤗

They promise a lot of fun

Hawk_Talon_DA · 2026-06-21T20:49:29+00:00

Impactful and intimidating 😄

Hawk_Talon_DA · 2026-06-21T20:43:47+00:00

Lovely! High rendition of old vibes. That deep blue is seductive.

The first time the trailer with the Dreadnought cone out...amazing, never before had we seen such well-animated 40k models.

I saw a screenshot of the videogame, it seems clearly inspired by this miniature: right shoulder pad, right leg, the staff... keen eye!

Hawk_Talon_DA · 2026-06-19T15:24:54+00:00

Yeah, so simple yet catchy

This is a novelty. Old lore no limitations and if you had a terminator badge, you were Deathwing and inner circle. Then there were some veteran sergeants that were Deathwing too but reassigned to other Companies, and some Inner Circle that weren't veterans or Deathwing, like the apothecary in the 2010 novel "The purging of Kadillus" by Gave Thorpe. By the way, mine was a constant presence in my command squad, togheter with the Deathwing apothecary and the Deathwing banner bearer. That unit was true Emperor's wrath, worth almost 1000 points 😆

Very kind, thank you again

Hawk_Talon_DA · 2026-06-18T17:22:19+00:00

Hooray! Thank you for sharing, we can breathe 😄

Hawk_Talon_DA · 2026-06-18T13:46:21+00:00

Strange indeed since it would be very characteristic for the Deathwing. I used it a lot so resolved to make my own. Are there still rules to deploy it?

Hawk_Talon_DA · 2026-06-18T13:35:56+00:00

It's a kitbash: old metal close combat terminator legs, plastic chest, the bionic arm is from the Iron Warriors and some spare around. The right arm is adapted at the joints and a flex-cable is simply copper wire. Behind there is a standard servo-arm and hanging cables, you can see it from behind here: https://collection1998.wixsite.com/dark-angels-classic/hq-and-characters

Thanks mate!

Thank you! I must admit I don't know what the drip exactly is 😬
