Cassor the Damned



During the Shield of Baal Campaign Cassor the Damned served under Captain Aethon. Painting was way easier than other members from Death Company. Related to bigger details and less blood drops. The exhaust was really fun to paint, like the oaths of moment, just the red crosses and white wings was struggling me. Also the last member of Death Company myself painted up to this point.









Drekka's Nightblades



The Nightblades based on a funny story. My Battle Brother and I were drinking some Mate. We had several discussions about Warhammer 40000, Painting and Playing. My Brother was struggled about the whole painting stuff, like me in the beginning. So I pick up some frames and paints and placed in front of him. The result are two Wolf Scouts and later several Ork units that was painted by him. Sadly these Orks slay many many of my Blood Claws so far.















Kurtha Seed's Legion Veteran Tatical Squad Rho



Kurtha Seed's Legion Veteran Tatical Squad Rho consists out of ten Tactical Marines. It takes some time until every marine was completely painted. Armory was chosen depending on the Betral at Calth rules, so seven Marines carry a bolter. While the remaining Members taken a melter, rocket launcher and power fist. The Sergeant carriers a lettered power fist and a bolt pistol. His backpack were taken from some #DarkAngels sprue. Furthermore take a look at the banner bearer, with his lowered bolter and fascinated field of vision. Maybe you already notice the marine equipped with rocket launcher and eye lenses. As there are Word Bearers who served the dark Gods, even a more cultism marine who already sacrifice his hand is there.

































































































Phodian Hive Warriors



After painting a lot of #Genestealers this unit was taken. Armory is oriented by the Shield of Baal Campaign, Bone swords, wipes and venom canon. During the painting process these models where sub-assembly, so the arms were painted separately. Furthermore these unit was not completely shaded like previous Genestealers, the Shade was only applied into recesses. Shading the thorax in this way was a little bit challenging, after all it succeed and looks well, in compensation to the Genestealers. Thereupon the Canifex and Broodlord followed.

































Raphen's Death Company



Raphen and his Brothers fight alongside with Captain Aethon during the Shield of Baal Campaign. Still remembering all the countless blood drops. To paint only these tiny drops take at least a whole afternoon. One specific model own round about 20 of them... However painting the whole Squad was quite funny and was done within a week. The basing of the Squad is reference to Squad Alphaeus and Cassor the Damned, to get some link between the three units. Thereupon the next model to paint was Cassor the Damned, he was way easier and with way less blood drops.







































Spawn of Cryptus



A Broodlord from high fleet Leviathan, also called Spawn of Cryptus. Still remembering the modeling process. Getting these model on his fancy base take many tries, during these also the tongue broke into two pieces. In the end the tongue ended up really downside, related to the original position. At least it does not harm the model and looks really well. During the painting process the arms were painted separately and glue together afterwards. Like all other Tyranids the base from Spawn of Cryptus still needs some work.















Squad Alphaeus



The first figures myself painted for the Shield of Baal Campaign and also the second Squad painted so far. Maybe you will notice the thick paint on the models. Relating to the time I was really new at this Hobby and so myself take the paint directly out of the pot to the miniatures. Not even primer are applied to them. The Bases where made with stones and some #Tyranids Bits which remained from previous painted Units. Also referring to fact that these models are related to my first days in this Hobby the whole Squad was nearly fully sub-assembled.

















































The Beast of Phodia



The Beast of Phodia, a Carnifex from high fleet Leviathan. Largest Tyranids model myself painted so far. The armory was chosen in coordination with the Shield of Baal Campaign. Like other Tyranids models the arms were painted separately. Shade was only applied into recesses, like in cases for the Tyranid Warriors.















The Children of Cryptus



The Children of Cryptus consist out of many many Genestealers from high fleet Leviathan. Related to the fact that these are one of my early units, a lot of disadvantageous during the modeling and painting process were made. Every single piece of these unit were painted in fully sub-assemblies. Paint was taken directly out of the pot thought the models. Shading in most of the cases were applied fully over the whole models. Nevertheless the highlights were made with a detail brush. Also the bases need some work, maybe they will get some rework in the future with the other Tyranids models from high fleet Leviathan.
