Belial: Master of the Deathwing, and my free time.



Hi folks,

I started building the terminators for my dark angels army: the deathwing. The dark angels' codex allows you to take terminator squads as regular troop types if you have Belial as a HQ choice. Also, if you spend an extra 25 or so points, and include the deathwing chapter standard, the terminators each get an additional attack. However, GW does not manufacture a Belial mini. So, I began to convert on of the terminator suits to reflect a Belial character. These, above images, are the beginning. Just laid down some of the paint and a bit of the detail. I still need to do highlights and text on the armor. Also, most of the back of the model is unpainted. I also intend to include a standard.

  1. Dude, very nice paint job. I like the terrain he is in too. Is that Gothic looking piece of ruin from Hirst arts or is it plastic originally? Looks very nice either way.

    With all your free time, I cannot wait to see the Amazons when I am down in May. That's right, beyotches, save the MFing date, I'm coming back down for some smack down. Open gaming dates include 5/22, 5/23, 5/24, 5/25. Open groupie dates avail. upon request.

  2. Excellent, I look forward to the challenge. And, I will have your Amazons done by the time you arrive. Though, you know, they will cut into the new Crimsom Fists Spearhead that I will be working on. That's right! I'm gonna be fielding some Pedro Kantor! Orbital bombardment! Lookout!

    I made a scenic base, oversized, for Belial so that he would stand out amongst my terminators. The stuff is from the Imperial Guard Battleforce sprue. It's a tiny ruin that is included just small enough to fit on a 40mm base. Glad to see you posting. It seems that I've been picking up the mini slack along with bubblewrap.
