Kill Team Battle

First PvP game with the new rules and the new team. Ran the Tempestus Aquilon against my friend's Heirotek Circle in the Global Event scenerio.

Dropping in on turns two and three was a pretty slick mechanic. Gave a lot of board control from the sheer unknown is who would show up where.

The Necrons felt right with the resurrecting and living metal making so I had to kill and kill and kill them again.

The Deathmark vs Aquilon Marksman sniper match was super cinematic: Deathmark took out the Grenadier in one shot before he even got to activate, then the Marksman dropped right onto the tallest tower and dropped the Deathmark through the window. Then a helpful Reanimator scuttled up and brought the Deathmark immediately back into the game.

I felt dominant coming out of turn two, but I over extended trying to clear out a resurrected Immortal and lost my Gunner and Precursor, when I should have had them play to the objective instead. Game ended in a tie. Not bad for a first outing and hopefully a sign things are at least roughly balanced.

Blood Angels Death Company Pt2

Five more Death Company Marines! I may go back and paint in some flesh, but I thought it looked fun in this Nosferatu style so I just did the fangs and a drop of color on the eyes.

Blood Angels Death Company

First five Dear Company Marines ready! My head canon is that these Blood Angels consider being in the grips of the Black Rage to be worthy of equal respect to being an honored Veteran so the pauldrons are painted in the same scheme I used for my Sternguard.

Blood Angels Assault Marine Thanks to the shift to Primaris I now have an unprecedented number of potential test minis to try different ways of painting! This is a pretty basic slap chop, but with some push on the highlights afterwards. Really quick work, but ended up with a ton more contrast and interest than I got just using contrast/shade/highlight method. #Warhammer #WarhamerCommunity #Warhammer40K #PaintingMinis #Miniatures #MiniPainting #MiniaturePainting #SpaceMarine #AdeptusAstartes #BloodAngels @[email protected]

Ghostkeel

I painted this one earlier in the year but never posted it anywhere. Inspired to grab a picture now by @[email protected] great version!

Don't ask to see inside, however. I got distracted and never finished painting the pilot.

Death Company Smash Captain

Almost time to start the new Death Company! Did this Blood Angels Smash Captain up in my Death Company style.

With all the gold trim on black armor it did start to look like he might see Horus in the mirror.

Still working out the kinks on my photography setup though. Not sure what is going on with the focus here. I want to learn to do that better, but I'm not sure I want a whole other hobby.

WIP Wednesday

Several different states of progress on the desk at the moment. From broody Necromunda bros to a giant Death Company Dread. I really don't know how to resist doing Tycho's feet as open-toe power sandles. I'll figure out the lore reason later.

Blood Angels Jump pack Chaplain

Mostly experimenting with my new photography set up. Still some work to be wrapped up on the base, but otherwise I'll call him finished. Putting the slotted base on top of a modern 32mm base gives enough bulk that I think he's ready to hit the table in 10th edition after until years waiting on the shelf, unpainted.

AdMech Color Test

I wanted to see if I could slap chop some white armor plating, so I grabbed a Makers Cult FDM print I have had laying around for a very long time. In this light the white plates and the silver gears look too similar, but I'm pleased with the white overall. The weathering was a blast, too!
