Dark Angels – Last of the Terminators and Whirlwind complete

Howdy folks, long time, no post. Real Life(tm) has been an absolute bear of late, with work and to a lesser extent the band eating up nearly all of my time. Coupled with the stress of an impending layoff I haven't really been feeling my hobby mojo and so there hasn't been much going on worth posting about. However, this past Saturday I ended up getting snowed in and had a free day so I dusted off the paints and got stuck in on the last of the Dark Angels.


First up is the unit of Deathwing Knights. I really dig these models, but their rules on the tabletop seemed a bit lackluster so they've been languishing on the to-be-painted shelf. I really like the addition of the little Watcher in the Dark!


Next up is the Deathwing Command Squad. Not much to say here, I used one of the left-over Knight torsos for the company champion, but otherwise they're pretty straightforward. I did enjoy painting the banner, it looks a little washed out in this pic unfortunately. Still getting the hang of the new picture taking setup...


Lastly, the cheap-as-chips Whirlwind. In the DA codex, it's taken a significant price cut, so it's almost an auto-include at this point for some extra anti-horde firepower.

With these done, the army is now completely painted! I'll try and find some time to drag them all out and get an army shot taken. Unfortunately, they're all going to be going up on eBay soon - as I alluded to earlier, there's a fair chance that I'm going to be getting laid off at the end of the week, if that proves to be the case expect to see a fair bit of stuff going up on the auction block over the next month or so. Not ideal, but mortgages much come before miniatures...
