Greetings and welcome back! I don't believe I ever posted the build of the three Dark Angels Inner Circle Companions that came in the launch box with Lion'el Jonson. Well, that was three models and a full squad can be six. That's well and good, and I'd probably have stayed with the three models, except that the kit builds two variants of each model. So, the collector in me was nonplussed that I had only half the available variants.
So I had the occasion to fix that yesterday, as I made a trip to meet a friend at a local FLGS that opened last year in the area. I did not intend to pick up anything as regular reader may have become aware that I am fully stocked on plastic soldiers - most in bad need of some paint. However, one does wish to support the local economy AND the typically struggling FLGSs. So I HAD to pick up a box of the Inner Circle Companions to complete the collection. The three once missing poses are shown above.
These models are just fantastic - particularly if you find yourself with a multi-decade love for the faction as I do. So, 'nuff said on that. I will look forward to putting paint on this squad at some point. I may take that on sooner rather than later to get back into shape for painting Asmodai, Belial and the Lion. Say what you will about crossing the rubicon, but it sure is great to finally have decent sculpts and scale models for the faction.
What's on your workbench?
Cheers and Happy Gaming!
The full squad of six does look impressive, and understand the completeness aspect as well. Nice progress on the small tanks as well.
ReplyDeleteGotta catch them all! I know the feeling!
ReplyDeleteOf course I do look forward to seeing your Sicarans - these variants are very nice miniatures. I should get some of them for myself...
