dark angels 3rd company wip

[Master Gadreel]

hi
I'm a new member here and I thought i would do a thread on my 3rd company project.
1st a little about me. I have been away from 40k for over 10 years. Seeing some photos of a friends painting got me interested in starting again. last time i painted space marines they where white metal and not as detailed as the current plastic ones. this will be a long term project getting models as and when funds allow.
Any tips and advice will be appreciated
thanks for reading

Hi, Glad to see another Dark Angels player. I really like how your green turned out on the devastators.

When you say tip and advice is there anything in particular you are looking for? like painting tips or...?

[Master Gadreel]

Hi thanks for the comment :)
No tips in particular just any pearls of wisdom from your experience of painting dark angels.

[Roy Gibson]

washes.. lots of washes. especially on the terminators :)

[Master Gadreel]

cool thanks for that.

Brother, I really like these models. Thanks for the pics. If I may ask: What steps did you use to paint these models, and how are you going to paint the Deathwing? I have the entire 1st Co and 3rd Co but have yet to use them because they are unpainted.

Hi gorechilde
To paint the devs I first undercoated them black, I then base coated then with caliban green. Then gave them I a wash of devlain mud and when it was dry I reapplied caliban green to the large areas. As a final highlight I went over the edges with knarloc green.
To be honest I haven't thought about how im going to do the death wing yet.

[Gorechilde]

Thanks for the info. They do look good.

[Master Gadreel]

No problem and thanks

Unfortunately I changed my Paints so I am going to have to repaint them as I used the original Dark Angels green and there is a difference in the shades between the old and new paints.

Going to repaint them using the Army Painter Angel Green Spray and I will post up my models when I have a squad done
