Dark Angels Tactical Marines

Tactical Space Marines


TActical Dark Angels

Well some of the figures so far have been a bit old so these are some of the later incarnations of space marine. Fairly standard iconography for them. All are from the 4th Company so have knee markings where these appear. Using the bolter in the standard Tarrantino fashion in the bottom figure. So accuracy is probably rubish. I use black for suit intersections and hoses, red for weapons and often a blue/grey for Dark Angels insignia. Pipes and conduits are in yellow to stand out.


Since its been about 30 years of collecting Citadel miniatures, my brother and I have armies from most of the Warhammer range. He got rid of his 40k stuff some time ago, but I have Dark Angels, Imperial Guard, Chaos and Eldar. Warhammer armies are Dark Elves, Wood Elves, Empire, Skaven, High Elves, Dogs of War, and Slannesh. My brother has Dwarves, Orcs, Beastmen, Nurgle, Khorne and Tzeentch. So we cover most of them! I'll put some of them up at some point in the future.

Cheers

Dark Angels Running Combat Squad


On looking through the various squads after sprinkling pieces from the new Dark Angels Veterans through them, I noticed that I had a number of running poses. Have to put these in squad 2, and move a veteran seargent back to squad 1. Putting these with the new Squad 2 seargent who was also running this would give me a combat squad of models advancing at pace. I'll do them as squad 2 figures so I will need to do a bit a repaint job on some for shoulder pad markings and fill in the gaps back in squad 1.

Dark Angels Space Marines Tactical Squad

Beaky style Tactical Marines

Well this squad was more or less finished but with the new Dark Angels Veterans squad I have put a new squad leader in with flowing robes. There are two of the original Rogue Trooper Marines in here. One has the oldest style of missile launcher which I have decided to keep, the other has a new issue bolter. Both of them have new style shoulder pads to replace the old pin dot style. There are also a couple of guys with old style armour but in metal. I do like the muzzle snout on the one.
