Code 187 Posted April 17, 2017 Share Posted April 17, 2017 Apologies if this is already covered somewhere-if so please merge this post. I'm looking to get some SG added to my army but for me they're a bit too blingy. I want my army to visually centre round Dante and the other HQ characters. Plus, most of my models are quite old now and from a time when we didn't get lots of extra gubbins to make them look all fancy. I'm thinking of doing the SG without the wings to keep them more in line with my other guys. Just looking for ideas/suggestions from what other people have done with their SG that isn't the stock paint/assembly scheme. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xenith Posted April 17, 2017 Share Posted April 17, 2017 There's a few very good examples of that on this forum, I'm sure their owners will pop up soon to show them off Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lirksus Posted April 17, 2017 Share Posted April 17, 2017 Tinbitz/Bronze with white feathers on the SG armour and Gold for Dante. Thats how I roll. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tyriks Posted April 18, 2017 Share Posted April 18, 2017 I can't find the picture I have of mine, but I used an ASM kit and just used arms/weapons and occasional bits from the SG kit as SG but then used the actual SG kits as HQs, because I agree they are too well decorated.

Chaplain Gunzhard Posted April 18, 2017 Share Posted April 18, 2017 I stuck with traditional Gold sans the wings, and I personally think they look much better (without them!): http://atticwars40k.blogspot.com/2016/03/blood-angels-command.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure someone did them in red with the wings. Gives me something to ponder anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Indefragable Posted April 19, 2017 Share Posted April 19, 2017 I personally love what brother LutherMax is working on. I may steal the idea myself! http://www.themightybrush.com/sanguinary-guard-wip/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gav1892 Posted April 24, 2017 Share Posted April 24, 2017 I didnt use the winged jump packs for mine, i put those to other characters and instead use FW Ashen Circle JP's Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Code 187 Posted April 24, 2017 Author Share Posted April 24, 2017 I didnt use the winged jump packs for mine, i put those to other characters and instead use FW Ashen Circle JP's Spoilt for choice with ideas now. Really like those FW jump packs. Considering these with the Heresy era heads as well, not a fan of the SG standard heads to be honest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gav1892 Posted April 25, 2017 Share Posted April 25, 2017 Currently building the entire Golden Host and having to use other bits like off the upgrade sprue, FW heads and Torsos etc to keep them all different Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paikis Posted April 25, 2017 Share Posted April 25, 2017 The helmets from the Sanguinary Guard kits are pretty good IMO. I've used the Death Masks on mine and plan on using the helmets on other troops, probably Devastators. They are covered in Blood Angels icons, which is something I really like. It does make them take longer to paint, but they look great IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You get 5 death masks, 5 helmeted heads and 5 bare heads, all reasonably unique, and great for dispersing among other units. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charlo Posted April 26, 2017 Share Posted April 26, 2017 The amazing thing about the DG/ DC kits is that they are basically bits box bloaters for BA players :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tyriks Posted April 26, 2017 Share Posted April 26, 2017 Charlo, do you just buy whatever the newest release is? If so, I don't blame you, I often want to. I suppose this is why I had to set a very concrete hobby budget... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dolchiate Remembrancer Posted April 26, 2017 Share Posted April 26, 2017 I went with a kit bash based on the Grey Knight bodies. They look nice and simply and once you get the -][- off of them can look pretty darn cool! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suppose this is why I had to set a very concrete hobby budget... God no....! ...Except a bit of Ad Mech. I just get very swept up in the hype and enjoy talking tactics about the new armies! I'd spent ages trying to decide on a legion, but knew I'd always regret what I chose once BA are out in full (unless they suck - unlikely with Sanguinius getting rules...) but when I saw the Talon's rule I jumped straight on them as YES CUSTODES. You were washing Deathguard? ...well....i guess they needed it after all. Heh heh heh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
