Squad Alphaeus
The first figures myself painted for the Shield of Baal Campaign and also the second Squad painted so far. Maybe you will notice the thick paint on the models. Relating to the time I was really new at this Hobby and so myself take the paint directly out of the pot to the miniatures. Not even primer are applied to them. The Bases where made with stones and some #Tyranids Bits which remained from previous painted Units. Also referring to fact that these models are related to my first days in this Hobby the whole Squad was nearly fully sub-assembled.
Tactical Squad Delta
Dark Angels are also called First Legion before #TheHorusHeresy. So it just suitable that these are my first models ever painted. It's a little bit ironic that I was thinking about starting this Hobby and painting some Space Wolves. It happened like that myself visit a hobby store and this was the only remaining starter box: Five miniatures with six paints. After finishing four of them, the next step were the models from Shield of Baal Campaign box. The last model, the Sergeant, was later give away to someone else who was also thinking about starting with this Hobby. So these Unit will never receive his Sergeant and stay with four Brothers - Delta.
The Children of Cryptus
The Children of Cryptus consist out of many many Genestealers from high fleet Leviathan. Related to the fact that these are one of my early units, a lot of disadvantageous during the modeling and painting process were made. Every single piece of these unit were painted in fully sub-assemblies. Paint was taken directly out of the pot thought the models. Shading in most of the cases were applied fully over the whole models. Nevertheless the highlights were made with a detail brush. Also the bases need some work, maybe they will get some rework in the future with the other Tyranids models from high fleet Leviathan.
