It was good fun making these. I’m making some Oddboys next and will give each one or two grot assistants.

So, significant Other out of town for the weekend... I thought, well maybe I can do this in a day. Figured ok, it's go time. Let's do this. 12-year old me is outrageously excited. 21 year old me thinks a tavern sounds better. 35 year old me thinks I don't have the patience or stamina for this. Well, it took about 2 hours to cut, clean, sand and glue. I tried out a new paint scheme on an intercessor so I didn't have to waste a lot of time deciding on that. I'd never done the non-metallic metal style on a vehicle. It confused me greatly, as it's the opposite of a zenithal I usually do on my guard tanks. Base-coating, Painting, detailing, and sponge chipping took 5.5 hours yesterday, and 2 today. Basing, weathering powders, and decals (with several gloss and matte coats) took another 2 hours. I wish I'd planned the base better in advance. Now that I think about it, some shell casings would be a nice touch... Bah, I'm calling done. Didn't do it in a day, but I'm happy with 48 hours to completion. DORN LIVES!!!!! OMEGON, I'M COMING FOR YOU!!!!!!

I, Leonaides, vow to complete a Space Crusade squad for the Further Glory of the Blood Angels Forum on or by the 15th of August 2020, or bare the Badge of Shame until year's end.



-This, children, is exactly why they send terminators into space hulks nowadays - lifespan of these guys was measured in seconds if a dreadnought snuck up on them.

I'll just leave this here... (and the lovely original box art paint scheme below)

But - do i do an oldstyle paint scheme as above, or try for a more modern version (less orange and cartoony)? Do i go for the white-armoured captain/sergeant or red? Thoughts appreciated gents/ladies/xenos fiends...

I once one-turned the Dread with my Sergeant; he was the axe/pistol kind!

 

Edit: It was also first turn. Insane.

Why not a more modern scheme, but with the iconic white sergeant? It would be a nod to the classic look and a refresh at the same time. Either that or just go the whole hog and make them Flesh Tearers instead of Blood Angels!
