From JohnM: Finally some Epic (10 Points)


It has been a year since I added any figures to my Epic Armageddon Blood Angels force. I thought to celebrate the dawn of 2018 that it would be nice to paint some. In AHPCVII, I had painted my way to just over 2000 points of a planned 3000 point force. Time to add some, methinks.

I had these 5 vehicles left over from the prize I won in last year's challenge, so they were pulled out yesterday from the lead pile and I rushed to get them done before the New Year. They are certainly much more complicated to do than WWII 6 mm armour. I still do not have it right, but they look a little better than last year's efforts.

Well that is it for 2017, time to get ready to go out for the celebrations. Happy New to All!

Ah, it's great to see you painting up some of the loot you received last year. I think they look great (that 'Falchion' is so badass) and will be a much welcome addition to your Blood Angels force.

I think we counted the Super Heavy tanks as three standard vehicle models by the end of the Challenge last year, so we'll go with that. 14 points. Woo!  

Nice one, John. Now, go out and have a great New Years celebration.

  4. A worthy last project for 2017. I quite like the subtle weathering you did on the tracks.

  8. Oh YEAH! Some more 30k goodness! You and Byron are pulling me away from my (admittedly flimsy) commitment to try and focus on historical stuff.

    That Falchion in particular looks great, and just wait until you get to fire it in a game! Good times await!
