Manda’s (Amachan) Dark Angels 5th Battle Company

About the Project
This is my Dark Angels 5th battle company from around the 13th Black Crusade era, so before the Primaris heresy. It started out as my half of the Dark Vengeance box back in the day and has been growing into a full battle company ever since. After a couple of years of this project being dormant as I struggled with 8th edition 40k. I am now re-imagining the project, re-painting the army in a grimdark style and finishing it off before the proper standard space marine is completely eradicated in current GW lore. The army will be for 7th edition 40k, I may try it in 10th at some point if I can make a legal list, but the focus is 7th edition and 8th edition if needed.

Turmiel Progress Update 3
I put some Desert Dust on Turmiel, the librarian attached to my Dark Angels 5th Battle Company. He is ready for his varnishes when dry.
Turmiel Progress Update 2
I did a lot more work on Turmiel, the librarian attached to my Dark Angels 5th Battle Company. Just a couple of things to do when he’s dry and then he can go get varnished.
Turmiel Progress Update 1
I made a start on basecoating Turmiel, the librarian attached to my Dark Angels 5th Battle Company.
Balthazar Progress Update 3
Balthazar, the company master for my Dark Angels is now ready for his varnish coats.
Squad 7 Progress Update 7
The transfers are applied on Squad 7 and once the varnish on the shoulder pads has cured I can start painting them.
Balthazar Progress Update 2
I did some more work on Balthazar, the company master for my Dark Angels. Just waiting on things to dry before I can continue.
Squad 7 Progress Update 6
The second half of squad 7 has been base coated and I have started applying the decals.
Squad 7 Progress Update 5
I finished most of the last details on squad 7 for my Dark Angels. Just varnishes and then they’re done. I won’t make finished pictures until the full 10-men squad is done.
Squad 7 Progress Update 4
I made quite a lot more progress on squad 7 for my Dark Angels today. They’re still not done, but getting close.
New Acquisitions.
The twin assault cannon for my Dark Angels Razorback I ordered from Wargames Exclusive came in today. I wasn’t aware the gun would come with headlights, so I ordered a set of headlights with it and now I have 2 sets. Perfect excuse to also get a Vindicator for my Dark Angels.
The Disco Doctor
The Disco Doctor or otherwise known as the apothecary for my Dark Angels with an afro is now completely finished.
Squad 4 Progress Update 1
Squad 4 for my Dark Angels has been re-based from their 25mm bases to the 32mm bases like the rest of the army has. These models are from the Dark Vengeance box set.
Squad 7 Progress Update 2
Over the last 2 days I have been nursing the transfers on, first one and then the second over that on half of squad 7 for my Dark Angels. 2 men of that half can’t have transfers on their shoulder pads.
Squad 7 Progress Update 1
After about an hour of doing the details on my assault squad, came to the conclusion that I should do the weathering after the transfers and before the detailing. ? So now the shoulder pads have a coat of gloss varnish drying on them to prepare them for the transfers.
Predator Progress Update 3
I got work done on my predator for my Dark Angels, mostly on the lascannons and I got the top gunner finished as well.
