Goodbye Blood Angels! :(

Sooooo today I finally had to say adieu to my first army my Blood Angels Space Marines! :( I have had a long career with them and many glorious victories and ignoble defeats but they were a pleasure to paint, model and game with! However, I'm going off to college and now they will serve again to provide funds for my education. Maybe one day in the future I will rebuild my Second Company :)

Armies on Parade Cont.

Here is an up close picture of my Vostroyans, more to follow. The army composition is as follows:

HQ:

One Command Squad, with a Lord Commissar, and a Witch Hunters Inquisitor.

Elites:

Twelve Snipers (counts as ratlings)

Ten man squad of Storm Troopers

Troops:

Infantry Platoon w/ command, two infantry squads, and a commissar

Two Veteran Squads

Fast Attack:

Hell Hound

Heavy Support:

Two Leman Russ Battle Tanks

Macharius Heavy Battle Tank

This is me standing in my local store, next to my Vostroyan 18th Heavy Infantry Regiment of Foot! The top hat was lent to me by a friend to cover a mess of hair not fit for public consumption lol

Armies on Parade

So with the end of the first round of Armies on Parade, I thought it would be fun to start a blog in order to share with the community of gamers, and (as I am sure I will) learn a great deal in return. I have been a dedicated hobbyist for around ten years or thereabouts. Around three years ago I finally found my feet, mostly due to the great group of gamers at my local store. I have two armies, a Vostroyan Firstborn regiment of Imperial Guard, and a Blood Angel's army that I am repainting in its entirety (be ready for more on that later). For the mean time, I'll simply say I am excited for this opportunity to share my work, and I freely invite people to share their opinions and indeed their own models, or armies as well! Happy Gaming!
