Here are some examples of other Dark Angels Marines I have completed in the past, I have another plasma canon devastator to paint, and when i get to him, I’ll do a full progress log and I think I could now paint one better than the one pictured here.

These old metal scouts have a crazy amount of detail on them for basic troops and take a long time to paint well. Made it quite a challenge to complete this lot as I decided to paint them as a squad rather than individually like I normally paint most of

These new Deathwing Knights are such awesome models, this guy is the first of the squad and currently the only one I have painted, took me around 15 hours but is now probably my favorite model in my entire army. (yes i am aware I haven’t painted the face

Here is my HQ inner circle, the Dark Angels Supreme Grand Master Azrael, Grand Master of Librarians Ezekiel, and Master Interrogator Chaplain Asmodai. These models are all the original metal ones. Azrael and Ezekiel are still metal, although they now include sculpted banners which my originals did not come with

What a marathon painting this guy was! Maybe close to 30 hours all up I think, and I haven’t even done a base for it yet, (planning something special for the base). I magnetized the arms, first unit I have ever magnetized, but now that I’ve done it,

Something a bit different today, not Dark Angels for a change! This is Waaagh da Ork who is very proud of his pink g-string! Painted him for my girlfriend a while back, if I ever decide to start collecting Orks, this will be my color scheme for sure :P

Its been too long since my last update. Although now I have painted a few models recently. I thought I would post a painting tutorial for my Deathwing Knights since I have completed a few of them now. Each knight took me approximately 15 hours to paint. I do them

With my Dark Angels I generally use red fairly sparingly compared to the official codex color scheme. Generally I don’t paint entire gun casings red, opting to use red instead for smaller details such as the grips and handles. However given how awesome this plasma canon and devastator marine

Just finished painting the last of my metal scouts, these guys have so much detail and take ages!!! I particularly like the way the sniper rifles and lenses have come out. You may recognize the sergeant as “Veteran Sergeant Naaman”, an old out of production Dark Angels character I’ve

I really like the pose of this model, my intention is to add a severed Tyranid head with a spinal cord into the power fist at some point in the future to make it even more dramatic! I have included the work in progress pics as well, if you want

This model is a bit of kit-bash using bits of the metal Dark Angels characters I had lying around. The left arm is the plasma-combi from Azrael, the right arm is the Sword from Asmdoai, the head is from an old space wolves tactical squad and the backpack is from

So I finally got around to painting some Deathwing terminators and decided to start with the squad from the Dark Vengeance set. I’m still working on the sergeant and the assault cannon dude. These models are good because they have dynamic poses that you cant replicate with regular terminators,

No guides or tutorials this time, just showing some of the models I have completed recently. These are all old out of production metal models I have had in my to-paint list for far too long! I wanted to use a really bright color pallet on the tubing on the

I like plasma weapons, so its a good thing I collect Dark Angels so that I can have heaps of them in my army! I really like this guy, hes a veteran with a plasma gun. The combination of everything, stance, robes, shoulder pads and the backpack with some extras.

So this is a new technique for me, surprisingly I’ve never really done a power weapon like this up until this out of production metal Captain I’ve had forever that I finally got around to painting… here’s a guide on how i did it * Step 1: Base

So here is a progression picture and guide to how I paint my Dark Angels marines. Takes me between 4 and 7 hours depending on the day and the model to get a single marine done. I tend to do step one in bulk as a squad and individual models
