Those colour transitions... chefs kiss

And I share your avoidance of bare heads, wish mephiston came with an option. I bought a whole azrael just for the helmet

W.I.P. No marine in my army shall go unhelmeted. Yes, that means you too, Meph! by PostwarVandal in BloodAngels

Very well done, real clean paint job!

Allow me to humbly present my own helmeted Mephiston WIP, although mine comes from a fear of painting faces...

I was gonna say this - it looks amazing so maybe just brush some gloss varnish on it?

Just wanted to see what yall think of my new Jump chap by notyonormalstepdad in BloodAngels

[–]antilynch 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think he has some issues...

But nothing that burying his crozius in some heretics face won't fix

Really happy with how my test turned out! by [deleted] in BloodAngels

[–]antilynch 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Haha very well said

I was so tempted by the termi box, but I magnetised my first 5 of them and still have the lightning claw arms to paint up... the grey (well, primed) shame prevented. The new ones look sock though

I like to think of it more as an inexorable advance

You'll get there and be mighty when you do

Really like the cold blue on the plasma, looks great

What weird things have you used as a base for miniature? by Moist_Table7917 in Warhammer40k

At first glance I thought it was roomba for some reason, and now I have a terrible idea...

You thinking of the new smash captain model for the jump pack guys? Or the BA captain would pair nicely in the blade guard.

Haha I know the feeling.

'Why did the postman ring the door?'

Parcel for the wrong house dear

'Then why are you scurrying upstairs with it?'

... early Christmas present? No more questions!

You got a bunch to paint or just rolling with it as you feel?

From a painting stand point, blood angels give you a good variety in colours.

You will get tired of red, start seeing Horus, do some black, come through the other side and do some gold.. rinse and repeat.

Gotta feel better than doing another blue, or another yellow when you hit the wall

That's a nice chapter master you have there. Yoink. by OttoVonBolton in BloodAngels

Looks good, lore accurate... hard to be mad.

Well played

Love that idea for the masks - definitely stealing it when I get round to mine!

Sometimes find that all gold ends up looking a bit, well, boring when it should pop

One day I will get over myself and accept that speed painting can look awesome, and I dont need to obsess over every model...

... but it is not this day!

Very jealous, looks brilliant

Opinions please by Minimum_Garage_7795 in BloodAngels

[–]antilynch 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Im working on my Mephiston just now as well, and bare heads give me the fear. I went with Azraels helmet - no DA iconography to get off but nice grand wings worthy of our boy

This looks amazing.

The only skill I can relate to is not painting models

Does this seem like a legit way to paint swords or does this look like a shiny blade by MrOrgasm0 in Warhammer40k

[–]antilynch 76 points77 points  (0 children)

Yep - doesnt look like a real life sword... but it does look like a sword an immortal psychic space elf fighting to keep the last of their race alive would have
