Blood Angels 5th Company

[RGilbert26]

Inspired by ilikebmxbikes over on Warseer (http://www.warseer.com/forums/showthread.php?226641-Full-Blood-Angels-2nd-Company-by-ilikebmxbikes) ive decided to create the Blood Angels 5th Battle Company. Now i dont know how long this will take but i have worked out what i need. Four Blood Angels Battleforces, two Tactical Squads, two Combat Squads, Two Devastator boxes, four Rhinos, three Dreadnoughts, one Captain and his Command Squad, one Librarian, one Chaplain and either a Razorback or Land Raider for the Captain and Command Squad. Assuming i manage to get far with this project i will add units from other companies; such as one or two units of Scouts, Terminators, Veterans etc.

At the moment i have one Battleforce, one Dreadnought, 3 previously built Rhinos, Masters of the Chapter (borrowed that idea from ilikebmxbikes), the Librarian and Chaplain.

At the moment both the Librarian and Chaplain are in their clampacks and i have slightly converted the Masters of the Chapter into the Command Squad, the Captain has the Thunder Hammer.

Here's some pics of what ive done so far, enjoy. (WARNING: Pic heavy!)

The models in the next three pictures have had one layer of basecoat applied and their back packs are ready for other base colours.

C&C welcome.

Just one point, on an organisational level the vehicles are not associated with a specific company, similiar with the chaplain and librarian.

Are you spraying or painting them?

[RGilbert26]

Well im copying the way they did it for the Apoc Reloaded data sheet, which is why each unit other than the two Assault Squads gets a Rhino, though I might ditch the two for the Devastator Squads.

Chaos Black undercoat and then painting afterwards.

[Wolfshade]

Have you also considered magnetising the Rhinos so that they can double up as Razorbacks as well?

[RGilbert26]

No as I prefer Rhinos for Tac squads.

[Wolfshade]

I look forward to your updates. Hopefully, they shall encourage me to sort out my 3rd company a bit quicker.

[RGilbert26]

Hehe, I'm a bit on/off at the moment so what might happen is every now and then an update with lots of pictures - showing quick progress etc.
