Next week we’ll see the new codex Blood Angels. After the last couple of codices I’m not very thrilled about the new book, at least we’ll get a couple new models with it. Anyways, I’ve finished the first batch of three assault marines. Means that, together with my test model, half of the unit is painted already 😉 Four models left to do. I’ll work on them in batches of two.

The mysterious masked Stahly is the founder and mastermind of Tale of Painters. Hailing from Craftworld Germany, he has been walking the Path of the Warhammer Collector since childhood. Over the decades, he has painted multiple armies and countless warbands and miniatures. When he's not painting miniatures or working on his library of hand-painted colour swatches, he's testing the latest paints, tools and model kits with German precision and a no non-sense attitude.
The mix of parts is very balanced, are you waiting even the new Tac Squad of BA for further new customization?
Not for the assault squad, but some of the bits might show up on futura BA models of mine 😉
Splendid as usual Stahly.
I know that these guys will be following the pattern from the previous Blood Angels but have you thought about applying some battle damage? May be an interesting challenge.
No, I like my Marines clean 😉 But I'll try some sponge weathering once I get around painting some BA vehicles.
