Angels of Redemption Veteran Sergeant WIP

It's been a while but I finally finished building my Veteran Sergeant. Just in time to enter him in a conversion contest that Heresy Online is running. Hopefully I can now get him painted in time to enter their painting contest as well. We'll see. I also tried a new post production style in an effort to make my photos a little more professional looking. I think it turned out well.

Conversions Commander! - Gothic Thunder Hammers

Standard Thunder Hammers look alright but not great. This had occurred to me before but when I finally got around to having a good look at my soon-to-be Deathwing on their sprues I decided to do something about it. I'm going for a fairly dark and gothic vibe with my Dark Angels so I found some suitable bits and went to work.

WIP Angels of Retribution Sergeant

This model is the third one I have ever painted and probably the very first one I built. You'll notice that the weapon loadout I gave him is actually illegal but how was I supposed to know? The Devastator Sergeant on the box had a bolter and a chainsword so why couldn't mine have a bolter and a giant fist? Oh well.

Humble Beginnings

I thought I'd post some pictures of my first models. I got them from a friend already assembled and decided that since I wouldn't be able to get very good access to the chest for painting that I would use them as my learning models. Not worrying about screwing up as much let me relax and just paint them, trying to learn as much as possible on the way.
