Plasma Inceptors

These Inceptors were another second hand pick up and came with a light almost Salamander green paint job. A 50/50 mix of dark green and black speed paints darkened the paint on the power armour to make them match my other Dark Angels Inceptors.

The plasma coils used my current approach which starts GW white air paint followed by the plasmatic blue speed paint.

The armour trim used gold speed paints with Vallejo gold and GW silver highlights.

I prefer these GW flights stands for flying bros rather than the current trend of tactical rocks. I positioned them as if they were coming in “hot” using their plasma at short range. I also had them at different heights to break up the unit.

The base uses cork for the rocks and various flocks. Vallejo earth, beasty brown, leather and bone white paints were used to paint over the astrogranite base.

Inceptor Sergeant

The latest addition for my Dark Angels is an inceptor sergeant. I did not have a flying stand so decided to use a marine who is being turned to chaos from an old chaos daemon kit.

I fixed the chaos marine to the base for stability and similarly drilled the Sarge into his neck/ shoulder.  This hid the marines face as apart from his left side of the body he looked too imperial for my liking.

I also added an old chaos space marine backpack and a few chaos transfers to ensure his allegiance to the dark gods is apparent.

The red power armour and pink/ purple tentacles completed the contrast with the green Dark Angels power armour.

The Sarge’s head is from the primaris upgrade kit which provides a heap of options I will be using for my  next bros. 

I really like the finished mini as he looks like he is getting some good air off this filthy follower of the dark gods. As always he will be out front leading the charge.

Primaris Inceptors

I have finished my first four primaris inceptors for my growing Dark Angels army.

Based on feedback I have darkened (pun intended) their green power armour compared my earlier bros who will similarly be darkened up.

Decals have been added with the sarge having a campaign symbol.

Next on the painting table will be some Deathwing terminators.
