With the Tournament in just two weeks away I finished the second Devilfish. I bought it from a friend and it was in a really bad condition. It took me the best part of the day just to tear it apart, clean up all the glue, file and correct all the imperfections and then to glue it back again. Painting it was difficult too, so I used more black colour to cover up all the flaws. Nevertheless, the model is now ready for battle.
waiting the Dark Angels Codex I painted those 3 Death Company Assault Marines. Recent play-testing proved that the Storm Ravens can’t always deliver their deadly cargo into the enemy lines. I played with two storm ravens with 8 Death Company Astartes in each of them and also, a third Death Company Squad led by Astorath The Grim. Unfortunately, a lucky shot blew my flyer off the table and with it 2/5 of my roster. On the other hand, the death company squad led by Astorath brought untold carnage, so I changed my roster to 3 Death Company Squads Astorath, Lemartes and one more Chaplain, all of them with Jump packs. Hehe I can’t spell Slaughter without laughter.
I just finished the first Devilfish for my Tau army. This model used to fill up my ''failed project'' box but now it can take a place in my collection and more important in my roster. Now I only need one more Devilfish (is already WiP) 4 pathfinders and some shield drones.
The tactical squad is already halfway finished. Two more bolters and a flamer are joining my Drop Pod Army List. Now I only need 3 more bolters and a Combi Flamer armed Sergeant left to finish. Well, of course I have to finish the Devilfish I am painting and three Panther Tanks for my Flames of War army.Well lot of work.
I decided that in the upcoming tournament I will participate with my Tau. I am a few unpainted models short, so all my efforts go to completing my army list. So, here is another squad of Fire warriors, rising my total number of 24 and now I am only 5 models short. Also I will need 2 devilfish APCs and 4 Pathfinders. Lucky for me still have a month till the Tournament.
Greetings everyone and Happy new Year! More Dark Angels! This chapter is ideal to restore old models from old failed projects. Models that I was an inch from throwing away are becoming one of my best projects yet. I still own a large number of models so I decided that few of them will become the third Tactical Squad. Here are the first 3 models.
As the last post of this year allow me to close the ''Project Dark Angels'' as we know it already. In a few days the new codex will bring new tactics, new models and new rules. As such, I am happy that I finished the ''Dark Vengeance'' and ''Assault on the Black Reach'' box sets and some more models! Now I feel confident to start this new year with more models , making my Project a Competitive Army.
