Balthasar (Master of the 5th CIA), Sgt Granatus and more Deathwing Terminators

The Cia Master Balthasar is ready, so now I got all my Dark Vengeance box painted.
Also, in the last week game, I got one lone Space Marine as a MVP in a game against Orks. All alone, after losing all his squad, he manages to assault a Trukk (with full HP) and blows it up with a granade, successfuly securing a objective (4 points in the Scouring Mission) and turning a disgraceful defeat in a glorius draw. After the game, I promote him to Sgt, changing his boltgun for the chainsaw and granade, and puting a thropy in his base.
Also, one more squad of Deathwing terminators.

Deathwing Terminator Squad Barakiel

I tryed three or four times to start my Deathwing terminators, but I always stop. To me, it's the most dificult color scheme of all my WH40k miniatures.
This time I went till the end, and finish a complete squad.

September 7th Army on Parade: Ravenwing 2nd CIA (Dark Angels)

To celebrate the Brazilian independence day at September 7th, here's my army on parade.
Unfortunately it's not my full Dark Angels army, but it's my whole Ravenwing 2nd CIA.
Next week, one surprise of the same kind.
Thanks to Nico for lending me this awesome tile, and  to my wife for taking the photos.

Dark Vengeance: Ravenwing Bike Squadron Arion

The next squad is ready: the bikers of the Ravenwing Bike Squadron Arion.
I profited the 'momentum' to keep doing the others Ravenwing units, instead of switching to the Deathwing squad, so very soon I'll post the others bikers, with two HQs.

Dark Vengeance: Tactical Squad Raphael

With the finish of some of my projects, I decide to start painting my Dark Angel army.
I've been assembling it since the Dark Vengeance release, and now I think a got a good army to launch this project.
I'll start with the Dark Vengeance miniatures, as I use them as a good base for some initiations in my game club, and I started with the Tactical Squad Raphael in honor of my nephew Rafael, that will arrive (born) very soon.
For my color scheme, I use the basic Dark Angel scheme with some customizations: the left shoulder plate in white, the weapons cover in yellow (to skip the Christmas look of the green/red, and to give Brazilian flavor to them), and other little things to make them unique.

Chaos Close Combat Cultists

For this week, 20 new close combat Chaos Cultists arrive to boost my Crimson Slaughter army.
I painted all of them in at the same time, using four main colors (red, blue, black and bege) and just placing them in different places for the same miniature pose.
This painting exercise wasn't bad. I even enjoyed the experience.
Now, I got 10 more cultists (with autoguns), one Hellbrute, one Rhino and I waiting for my Helldrake, Chaos Spawns (2) and Defiler to arrive.

Kranon and Cultists

My first HQ for my Crimson Slaugther army is ready: Kranon, the Relentless.
He doesn't come alone: a scort of cultists is there to guard him.
My army grew a little this week: I bought an extra Hellbrute, 20 more cultists, and a Demon Prince.
However, as I received my Dark Angel Codex with a some of the new releases, I spent a lot of time this week-end assembling them. I made 4 Black Night riders, 1 attack bike, 1 Land Speeder Darkshroud/Vengeance and 1 Darktalon/Nehilim Jetfighter. I magnetiezed them so I can chosse wich version I want to field.
