My journey towards a Horus Heresy Era army has been a long a winding one. Thus far I have thrown together test models for almost every legion in my search for something that I am happy with. Finally I have settled on the Blood Angels and this post covers the painting progress of my test model.



Some of you may remember this guy from my earlier Horus Heresy posts. After being painted a Son of Horus he is now stripped off paint and detailed up with some Forge World Blood Angels Brass Etch.


The model is now pretty much complete with the Blood Angels color scheme laid down, detail work done and metallics at a satisfactory point. One thing I am not sure on though is the crest... any ideas on how this could be improved then please comment down below.


The base was a reasonably simple affair following my usual process. To finish this off i need to tape everything off proper and then do the blends on the blades... again I am not certain what color this should be any ideas?
