Seems like ages since I've last painted anything Epic so maybe this could be a good opportunity to finish off an old project of mine. Some 3 or 4 years ago I started converting Space Marine infantry for a small Dark Angels army. The basic idea was that every unit, vehicle or infantry stand had to be converted in some way or another. From the simple addition of areials on a tank, to full weapon swaps and reposed infantry. You have probably already seen some test pieces from this army like the Marine Scouts I entered in last year's EpiComp. Still sitting in a box is the rest of the army waiting for me to crack open those pots of green paint and get to work.
The proposed army list isn't meant to be particularly tournament effective, but is simply a way to include a number of different units for a nice and varied looking army. where I can paint up both Deathwing and Ravenwing units for a bit of variation.
The list is as follows:
August: 2x Tactical Marines + Rhinos = 600 points (Plenty of units to get the hang of the color scheme - hopefully my DA green hasn't dried up completely yet)
September: 4x assault – 175 + 4x devastators + razorbacks 250 + 100 = 525 points
October: Land speeders – 200 + Scouts – 150 + Thunderhawk 200 = 550 points
November - Land Raiders – 400 + Bikes – 200 = 600
December - 2 x Warhounds = 500
Then there's a couple of optional units like a commander, librarian etc. Some of these will be infantry and some might be converted onto vehicles but I haven't quite decided on those just yet. I also got a FW reaver titan that I might paint along with the Warhounds to round off my Lucius Pattern Titan collection. ...that is if my timetable doesn't go completely out the window once Uni starts again
