Merc's madness

Awesomeness overload! Also, that bird icon on the titan, that would make an awesome chapter badge (thank you for the idea, its mine now! MUAHAHAHAHHA :tongue.: )

I'm using it as the house icon for my Knight(s).  It's the hawkshroud ones from the knight transfer sheet with a little extra paint added :-)

Man were does the time go? Oh yeah, work, school, family, home repairs...

Anyway, I have been busy with a few things, some of them involving paint!

Firstly I made two squads of acolytes for my inquisitor. I wanted something that looked a little different then the off the shelf models and something that would fit in with the theme of my other models as well. The background idea is that I'm using the inquisitor/knight rules/models as more of a pdf to go along with my BA successor chapter.

Some pre shots of the the acolytes:

And once I managed to get some paint on them:

There has also been a bunch of new stuff released for BA lately, of which I have picked up a few things, Picking up all the campaign books netted me some more plastic to work with. I started with the Dread:

And then ended up making him a friend out of extra parts:

I start with the base colors on both, and have finished off the libby dread so far. I'm working with a little bit different orange then I did when I started the army, it ends up being a bit darker but it is MUCH easier to pull off as I'm using an airbrush to do most of the coloring as apposed to 10+ layers by brush. It also ends up a lot smoother.

Libby Dread pics (some WiP ones first):

And some finished pics, along with a side by side of an old dread to show the difference in the orange:

I have some more pics I need to post for things I have finished, but since it is that time of the year...

I Xmercx answer the call of E TENEBRAE LUX and vow to complete [1 Plasma Obliterator (230pts.) 1 Captain Karlaen (160 pts.) ] for the Nova Angels [successor Chapter of the Blood Angels ] of total value [390 pts] on or before August 1st. Success will bring eternal glory to [All the Sons of Sanguinius] and failure will doom me to bear the Badge of Shame until the year-end

First vow has been completed. I must say that the plasma obliterator is one of the worst kits assembly wise that GW has ever put out, at least out of the ones I have handled over the past 20+ years. However, once you get past that it is a decent looking model with a lot of little detail. Photo dump inc:

Took a little longer than I wanted but 3rd vow is completed:

gallery_33706_8353_522189.jpggallery_33706_8353_380710.jpggallery_33706_8353_327757.jpggallery_33706_8353_270025.jpggallery_33706_8353_184726.jpggallery_33706_8353_228270.jpggallery_33706_8353_30877.jpggallery_33706_8353_293675.jpggallery_33706_8353_72627.jpggallery_33706_8353_126898.jpggallery_33706_8353_387016.jpg

and for my next trick...

I Xmercx answer the call of E TENEBRAE LUX and vow to complete [1 Librarian in terminator armor with stormbolter.) ] for the Nova Angels [successor Chapter of the Blood Angels ] of total value [95 pts] on or before August 1st. Success will bring eternal glory to [All the Sons of Sanguinius] and failure will doom me to bear the Badge of Shame until the year-end.

(I'm no good at telling if librarians have the right markings for the higher ranks so leaving as a level one psyker for points, plus the BA dex no longer seems to give a separate name for the higher ranks)
