Unbreakable Posted September 26, 2014 Share Posted September 26, 2014 Hi all, Decided I would share my progress with the IX legion. The army will be based around Captain Nassir Amit's 5th Company. 15man Tactical Squad http://i514.photobucket.com/albums/t342/dansc_photos/2014-09-26141014.jpg http://i514.photobucket.com/albums/t342/dansc_photos/2014-09-26141001.jpg Still got some chipping and weathering to do on this squad, any recommendations for a chipping colour? Im thinking grey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Chaplain Posted September 26, 2014 Share Posted September 26, 2014 Gorgeous red you've achieved on these BAs. Mind sharing the recipe? What else is going to be painted up for this force? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unbreakable Posted September 26, 2014 Author Share Posted September 26, 2014 Gorgeous red you've achieved on these BAs. Mind sharing the recipe? What else is going to be painted up for this force? The recipe for the red that I used is: Vallejo Mahogany as base coat Evil Sunz Scarlet Carraburg Crimson wash Highlighted with Evil Sunz Scarlet and Squid Orange I will be adding a lot more to the force, currently finishing off another 15 man tactical squad armed with fraying knives. Also have some cataphractii terminators, HQs, command squad, sanguinary priests, seekers and a fire raptor to paint. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrandMagnus Posted September 26, 2014 Share Posted September 26, 2014 Really nice blood angels, brother! I cant wait to see more of your work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Solar_Pattern Posted September 26, 2014 Share Posted September 26, 2014 I really do like that red, reminds me a lot of the BA artwork in Visions of Heresy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother Dallo Posted September 26, 2014 Share Posted September 26, 2014 Lovely. Will any be kitted out with flaying knives, which the 5th are famous for? I'd reccomend using kroot knives, if you do go down that route, as they look fairly brutal. Like these: http://bitzbarn.com/oscommerce/catalog/product_info.php?cPath=22_42_150&products_id=861&osCsid=g2kbr1fp2opbh2gb8rpdm82b54 Keep up the good work Dallo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unbreakable Posted September 26, 2014 Author Share Posted September 26, 2014 The squad I'm working on just now is armed with flaying knives, Iv just used the serrated chaos marine knives to represent them. Should get pictures up in the next day or so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother Dallo Posted September 26, 2014 Share Posted September 26, 2014 Awesome. I'll keep an eye out for them. Do you plan to make any references the the fact that they will, in time, become Flesh Tearers instead of Blood Angels? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StruManChu Posted September 26, 2014 Share Posted September 26, 2014 They are exceptional! The red is absolutely spot on. Looking forward to more of your work, especially a Fire Raptor in BA colours. Keep it up! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DietOfLiquor Posted September 26, 2014 Share Posted September 26, 2014 Ooooooo. I love seeing more of the IXth legion come into the fray! Love the red! Keep up the good work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Combat_Vet Posted September 28, 2014 Share Posted September 28, 2014 Beautiful work and I love the red. I am really looking forward to seeing more of your guys as I am about to start my own Blood Angels this week :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother-Chaplain Kage Posted September 29, 2014 Share Posted September 29, 2014 I'm glad I'm not the only one who likes the HH paint jobs in muted tones. As many have already said, that is a beautiful toned-down red. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unbreakable Posted September 29, 2014 Author Share Posted September 29, 2014 Thanks for all the comments. I have another update today. 15man Tactical squad armed with flaying knives (extra close combat weapon in game terms). Like the 1st squad I still need to do some chipping and weathering, also need to get some decals for the right shoulder pads. http://i514.photobucket.com/albums/t342/dansc_photos/2014-09-29124645.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flint13 Posted September 29, 2014 Share Posted September 29, 2014 Very pretty. Like everyone else I love the beautiful brick red. 5th company is my favorite of the 9th by far ^_^ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daemonclaw Posted September 29, 2014 Share Posted September 29, 2014 nice work brother ,personally i like these darker red boys better than the blood red variety Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Telhdrat Posted September 29, 2014 Share Posted September 29, 2014 Have to agree with everyone, that red is just beautiful. I'm a bit annoyed though, because now I'm feeling like making a few Blood Angels as well, and it's not like I don't have enought to paint already Fantastic work!

Brother Pheidias Posted October 1, 2014 Share Posted October 1, 2014 I salute you, brother, on a most marvellously painted squad. Will follow this! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Solar_Pattern Posted October 8, 2014 Share Posted October 8, 2014 I will say, they do look slightly thousand son-ish. But never the less those guys look bloody good! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unbreakable Posted October 8, 2014 Author Share Posted October 8, 2014 Too much gold? I was initially thinking of using silver. Not sure if the Blood Angel legion uses as much gold as the chapter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother Dallo Posted October 8, 2014 Share Posted October 8, 2014 I like it. They do field entirely gold clad warriors in the form of Sanguinary Guard. The power weapon effect is really eye catching. Care to share how you did it? Dallo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
