OK.... as you may know, I've got Commander Dante and honour guards. I've got the Furso Dreadnought and Tactical marines.
I'm sorta mixing a bit of 40K rules on the organisation.
Not sure if allwoed what I'm planning.
I have Commander Dante and Honour Guards as HQ.
I'm wanting to have Captain Tyco, Apothecary Corbulo, Librarian Mephiston, Chaplain Lemartes as another command squad HQ.
2 squads of tactical marines. 1 squad of assault troop.
Furiosos Dreadnought and Baal Predator.
What do people think? Or should I put Captain Tyco with the squad of tactcal marines?
Now the scenario is that they've been dropped onto an island to assult it by drop-pod and thunderhawk... problem now is how does a Baal Predator gets transported?

it would depend if you want these as gameing figs or just for display... either way i thing Tyco and Lymartes should be on a base with a few regular marines... kinda leading the assault look prehaps, and Mephiston, with Corbulo with a more supporting look to the base...
as for what your wanting to make, it could easily and list legaly make a small marine army...

If you're going for display I'd buy a FW Thunderhawk Transporter when it comes out... very pretty, and it's designed to carry 2 Rhino-sized hulls at a time.

As promised, my attempts at a Baal predator and a furioso dread.
The Baals turret is just 0.5mm plastic tubing in two sets of seven.
The furioso's second power fist arm is almost all greenstuff except the gripper at the end which is a spare one I had after making a siege dread.
I hope they help with your blood angel army.

OK... I got the Tacticals done, and I've got black shoulder pad borders... but standing these next to the honour guards and Tyco looks fine... unfortunately my assault marines have yellow jump packs... so they look odd.
How are the blood angels shoulder colour pads go? or are they the same as Ultramarines?
Painting the Dreadnought, and its entirely red... so not sure whether to paint the claws yellow to fit in with the Assault marines or black markings to fit with the Tactical.
Shall I paint the Tactical marines bolters yellow and the dreadnought claws yellow? But then the Honour guards dont seem to fit in with the rest, although i dont think they need to.
Any ideas? suggestions?

Usually blood angels shoulder pads edges are black and helmet colour changes per unit type (red-tac, yellow-assault, blue-dew and many use gold with veterans)
I think little details makes dread fit to formation a lot better.
something yellow for assault could work great, try it at claws. For devs dreads shoulder pad could be blue etc.
Just my 2 cents...
