Assault Marines

This week I've pulled some minis that don't usually see the light of day. I was really enthusiastic when painting them at first. Then I used them in battle and, against Tau, they really don't do any good. 

Dark Angels Assault Marines

These are the older models, not the cool new kit. They still look very cool though. I did throw a Dark Angels power sword on the sergeant. One of these days he'll get to use it. 

I'm pretty please with the results, they are by no means competition styles but they look good on the table. Please forgive the mold lines. I got lazy... Also trying to put transfers on a curved surface is nigh-impossible! Seeing as my buddy, whose Marines these are (I'm painting and storing them), got the transfer sheet from Forgeworld, I'm going to use them. 

 

Here's your token front-on shot, also know as the "first turn look" before they're all dead. And below, proving that I do finish every last bit, the backs.
