Codex Unforgiven

I've had several requests asking how I painted my Deathwing. I can empathise with this, since Bone can be a very difficult colour to do properly. It was frustrating for me when I was looking for painting guides and tutorials online and couldn’t really find any, back when I had just started on my Wing. Finally I just used a combination of several techniques to come up with my current style. While it can be time consuming, I feel that with a Deathwing army it is worth the investment to make a good looking force- especially since there are so few models to paint! Others prefer Darkseer’s slightly darker style- I would recommend this if you are after a faster method that still looks great.

The Model to be Painted

For those of you who don’t know me.  Which as this is my first article, I imagine is all of you. I am a proud member of the royal air force and so, when I was told I was going to be spending four months in the Falkland Islands I took it as an opportunity to do something I had been meaning to do for a long time.

That’s right start my first ever space marine army. Now some people may have spent time trying to pick a chapter but for me the path was already laid.  I had had an affinity for the Dark Angles ever since I bought my first ever White Dwarf in 1994, in said White Dwarf there was a battle report featuring the Dark Angels verse the Orks. It was basically a showcase for the release of the codex Angles of Death and I still have the image of Azrael and brother Bethor leading a squad of Deathwing down the centre, everything the Orks could throw at them bouncing off the Lion helms power field or the impressive tactical dreadnought armour.
