Its been a while since I posted here, so I thought I'd do something (Been addicted to World of Warcraft  :(  )

Since I made my Commander Dante
http://lexcore.co.uk/Epic4/apage.php?al ... =SM&sub=BA

I've been trying to make a small Blood Angel army, and its taken me probably over a year to make a 10 man squad of Assault marines using the same method as Commander Dante's honour guard.

I'm following the 40K rules, so hoping to do two mandatory tactical squads.

I'm wanting to do a conversion for each character, but then it means creating a core formation for each. Still working on this idea.

So... I guess I'm just wondering if anyone else has done any blood angel conversions.

I have done two conversions for my BA successor chapter.  The first is a furioso variant dreadnaught and the second is a baal predator (with sponsor heavy bolters rather than flamers)

The Dante model is awesome - no wonder it's taking you so long!

What method are you using? Are the jump packs sculpted, or made from bits?

Regards,

Okay, scratch that question - I've just found the page which shows how you did it:

haha, thanks for all the comment. I am planning to do captain tyco and others (yeah, phonenix lords too), but just do characters aint no fun if you don't have an army for them to lead... hence trying to do a few troops for Commander Dante.

The fruioso dread I did was in the single unit epicoom competition, and I haven't posted picture of my baal yet.  I'll try to get one up tonight.

Wow....... those WIP shots really show the level of effort you have put into these.  I wish I had the skills and patients to do something half as good.
