Heresy Era Blood Angels


Recommended Posts

Hello all!

 

I am attending the October Throne of Skulls tournament and taking my Heresy Era Blood Angels. I thought that the Blood Angels subforum deserves a log of its own since it has provided me with both tactical and paintnig inspiration!

 

Here is the first of my Terminators,i will post pics of the rest of my completed minis soon.

 

Brother Sergeant Leonis,3rd Terminator Squad,Blood Angels Legion.

Land Speeder Fury, Blood Angels Legion. The Marines wear blue helmets because i thought (contrary to established fluff) that since the Tornados are crewed by Assault Marines, the heavily armed Typhoons should be crewed by Devastators.All Blood Angels like to fight in the air after all.

The Land Raider 'Cruor Telum',loosely translated from High Gothic as "Blood Spear", has a long and honourable history with the Blood Angels Legion.It has served with the 2nd Company since the 124th year of the Great Crusade,delivering veteran Blood Angels to the thick of battle and blasting the Emperor's enemies to oblivion with its powerful guns.It suffered nearly catastrophic damage during the ill-fated Signus Campaign and it took all the skills of the Legion's Techmarines to restore it to fighting condition before the Siege of Terra begun.During the siege it held traitor armour at bay with its newly installed Godhammer pattern Lascannons and led several Imperial counter-attacks,sometimes even transporting squads of the Legio Custodes.Its is rumored to have destroyed 2 enemy Land Raiders belonging to the Night Lords Legion and several Rhino transports and Predators of the World Eaters.In recognition of its service during the Siege,'Cruor Telum' earned the honour to bear the Emperor's Aquila upon its hull.The venerable Land Raider is always at the forefront of the Blood Angels forces during the Great Scouring,always spearheading the assault and bringing swift death to the enemies of the Imperium.

Some of the best looking blood angels I've ever seen! Anyone would be really proud to field them! Definetly an inspiration to me so please keep posting any further work you do!

 

I would love to know how you got the sang guard chests on those terminators! It looks so cool!

 

Also are those chapter house studio heads you got on some of those marines? Or did you get them somewhere else?

These are ALL pure awesomeness, thanks for sharing! Loads of subtle (and not so subtle!) conversions but the painting is just something epic :lol:

 

On the SP; you could just call 'em apothacary's as Deschenus Maximus has it right, they were created after the heresy using the dead Sanguinius' blood. Though I notice 'scouring era' in your sig; that'll do me thinks ;)

Actually it was Sanguinius himself that created the Sanguinary Priesthood during the Crusade or Heresy (cant remember right now),its in the Codex so its all right to call them by their given title. :D

 

And since he was mentioned....

 

Sanguinius,Primarch,Blood Angels Legion.

I'll be using him as the Sanguinor in ToS.I went for a kinda rugged look,after the beating he took on Signus and around the time he gathered the Legion for the defence of Terra.

 

Hope you like him!

This is oozing with so much awesomeness that I must complete more of my army. Your combination of part mixes, nice little background stories for your minis, and great paint scheme make for a great looking force.

If you look up "perfect" in a dictionary, your name and pics of your models appear! :P

 

I'm totally in awe, your painting style is very clean, solid colours and the freehands are amazing. Perfectly executed, as is the overall theme of the army. The rich blue on your librarian furioso is exceptional, as is your interpretation of Sanguinius. Do I spot Sanguinor's legs, Necron C'tan robes and a Chaos Deamon sword there? :P

 

Words can't really describe the awesomeness of this thread.

Thank you all for the feedback. :)

 

Snorri,you are correct mate.The blade is from a Bloodcrusher's bloodletter(and went to the Blood Angels Primarch,a Legion full of bloodfists,blood champions,bloodstrike missiles and bloodshard.See a pattern there? :))

 

 

The army was originaly Scouring era but now i am slowly taking it backwards and turning it to a proper Pre/Heresy era force.

 

Cheers!
