Jain Zar

Short background story: I think the howling banshees squad in my army is one of the nicest. However, they see little play time because there is little room in my list once the obligatory harlequins, 10-strong wraithguard, farseer, and heavies are included. There is a Indy Tournament at the end of the month that is being held at the Battle Bunker and I've decided to sacrifice my normal recipe for a softer but more spectacular-looking composition that will have the full compliment of my banshees. Furthermore, I've recently finished the banshee's Phoenix Lord model, Jain Zar, to make sure they gain the centerpiece status they deserve. Below are views of the finished model. I went all out on the NNM and you may notice hits of OSL scattered about.

Blood Angels Assault Squad

I finally finished the Blood Angels assault squad. I put these together a long time ago, so there are some mold lines that I never used to worry about... Also, I put 2 plasma pistols in this squad for some unknown reason. These guys count as Troops now! With the 'Descent of Angels' special rule, these guys are great for taking objectives in the middle of the game. I played around with the Sergeant's power sword, I think one side looks better than the other.

Note: The Sergeant group of 5 was painted after I finished the first group. I didn't like the way the helmets of the first group turned out, so I used much darker shading for the second group.
