Chaplain Cypher - The finished Article

Oh bloody hell its been a while, but at last here is my Cypher model transformed into a chaplain for my Dark Angels 2nd founding all finished and painted up.

The idea behind using Cypher is, since he only ever shows up on a battle field momentarily (and the fact hes been taken out the chaos codex) is he is searching for his lost primarch. Hence the reason he carries The Lions sword around with him at all times. To be honest with you ive just decided whilst writing this that that is the story behind The Archangels...........Ha-Ha its funny how things pan out isnt it. Cypher disappeared with Johnsons sword so that no-one else could wield it in battle apart from rightful owner - The Lion. Rather than a chaos warband of marines led by him, the Archangels are the loyalists who were in the wrong place at the wrong time when the chaos gods banished the fallen throughout time and space. The Archangels learned of the Dark Angels 1st company primary mission of hunting down the fallen and making them repent for their sins against The Emperor and The Lion. The Archangels made it their primary mission to make sure that The Dark Angels achieve this without realising that they are being helped so that one day they will meet their primarch once again and clear their name and re-unite all the brothers of Calliban.

So as usual comments are very welcome as i need the criticism or praise.......... your choice.

So till next time ...............Oorah

Chaplain cypher

Just a quick one here really, I've finally got to putting this guy together after having him for almost a year. I always wanted him as a chaplain so I needed a crozius for him but I wanted one unique to him so I used a power sword arm for the ARM and hilt, a power maul for the shaft and an ornament bit from the dark angel upgrade sprue for the weapon bit at the top (mmm that sounds correct) and hey presto the crozius is born.
when it comes to painting this guy its obviously gonna be black but the outcome will hopefully be that of the punisher as me and my mates have set each other a challenge to get marvel/DC characters into our armies :-) .

As always leave a comment :-) .

So till next time .............Oorah

My Captain My Captain

Gonna be playing in my first tournament ever at the end of September at the Hull's Angels gaming club, and to make it better its for the macmillan charity for cancer support.

 Now the thing is i wrote out my list which included a captain on a bike (as always) but i usually just use my chaplain on a bike to rep a captain BUT as its a tournament everything has to be WYSIWYG (What You See Is What You Get). As this left me in brown sticky smelly stuff i decided to do something about it and make my own out of what ive got in my bitz box. Lucky for me i had an old bike so that was the main bit sorted. As you can see i added bits from the dark angels upgrade spru and had to adapt a pair of bolters for the front fairing. Now i love the rules for auxiliary grenade launchers but there just isnt a model for it (yeah thanks again GW) so i took to cutting and hacking away at a smoke launcher and voila acouple of grenade launchers were born. As for the look of the bloke riding the bike i wanted something a little different to the rest of the army characters so i hacked off the horns from a chaos helmet and did a bit of filing and he was done, ready to strike fear into the heart of the enemies of the imperium.

So till next time.........OORAH

Blue Archangel (Librarian)

Hello there people, it is I Gingerkid, back from real life to FINALLY update the blog again.

 This time its my old school metal terminator Libby, which i gave a little bit of an upgrade to bring him into the modern day. Well i say upgrade like i did a great deal to him but really i just gave him a storm bolter arm from the dark angel upgrade spru and angled his force weapon arm from his body so it wasn't stuck straight out in front of him and filled the gap with green stuff.

Got him painted up last week and to be honest i'm pretty pleased with the end result. Yeah yeah I know its not gonna win any painting competitions but its good enough for me as i only really play mates anyway.
.
So anyway here's some pics of him. Let me know what you think.

So till next time ................OORAH
