Chaos Chosen Finished - video

Here are finished Chosen Marines and a tutorial showing how I painted them up. Like I say in the video the bronze trim adds a lot of time to the steps and I'll be happy when I'm through the Chaos in this set.

Chosen Marines WIP 2

Here's another batch of work in progress shots of these guys. Someone asked what I meant by a metallic base last post... I'm saying paint them the darkest metallic first (the whole model) then pick out the colours on top of it. Give that a wash to shade and disguise any mistakes then start highlighting.

Dark Vengeance Chosen Marines WIP 1

Here's the first set of pics for the Chaos Chosen Marines from Dark Vengeance. The detail is pretty cool on these guys, but I always find the metallic edging takes a lot of extra time. This was true for Space Wolves, and I'm seeing it again with these guys. It'd almost be better to start with a complete coat of metallic, wash it then start painting the colours on top of that (like I do with some ork stuff). Anyway, too late for that with these guys, so here we go...

Also, I've added the paint swatches to the end of the post... I usually do that with the final video, but I figure it might help now too.

Dark Vengeance Company Master WIP

Here's the 2nd guy I'm working on from the Dark Vengeance starter set. Nice model with lots of details, but will paint up pretty quickly. I'll be using mostly the same colours as the Chaplain, with the addition of a purple cloak.

Interrogator-Chaplain Seraphicus WIP2

More WIP pictures of the Limited edition chaplain from Dark Vengeance. Sticking to the new GW paints in a pretty standard way here using a base, shade and two layers for pretty much each colour.

Dark Vengeance Assembly part 4

Here is the start of the Chaos forces from the Dark Vengeance box. It looks like GW had some extra sets of the limited edition, so most local stores got more limited sets and the normal ones were delayed. Wonder what that means.

Dark Vengeance Assembly 2

Some more Dark Angels assembly pics from Dark Vengeance. I'm working my way through the assembly of these guys basically in the order that they appear in the assembly guide. Its much better having all the parts numbered than trying to look on the side of the box (like island of blood).

Dark Vengeance assembly 1

I've been assembling the dark angels from the Limited Edition box and have a couple observations. The first is that some of the terminator are very similar to the space hulk ones and the second is that the marines are very similar to the Assault on Black Reach ones. The characters are much better quality, so I'm really looking forward to painting them.

Dark Vengeance Unboxing and review

Here's a full unboxing and look at the sprues. I'm sure you're already aware of what's in the box, so its more about me sharing my thoughts on the kit and impressions. I'll be doing an assembly video and start to get into painting these guys as soon as possible.

Dark Vengeance Sprue and Assembly Video - Interrogator-Chaplain Seraphicus

Here we go, fresh out of the box, the limited edition Interrogator-Chaplain Seraphicus of the Dark Angels. The sprue is the same size as the Fantasy heroes that GW released after 8th edition (clam shell), so hopefully this means they will be doing these for 40k now that 6th edition is out. He is not snap fit like the rest of the box, so you will need glue and something to clean up some mold lines.

Sprue pics and assembly video shown after the break.
