The Descent of Angels.

Well as one of the two founding members of The Cold Steel Bisons I thought that I would kick off our Hobby Blog discussing not only my progress with my Blood Angels followed up with some pics. But Also I would like to discuss a topic that I think all of us 40k enthusiasts would agree upon.

In the back is the Aztamouth award winning honor guard!

So when painting my Blood Angels I began to remember a fond memory of the Color of the Armor before me. The deep rich red swam in my mind until finally the memory surfaced. I was ten in some small hobby store in Lewiston, NY that closed as soon as it opened.  However not before it imprinted on me something  that obviously I never shook off.  I bought a terminator Sgt. and I tried as hard as I could to paint it the way I saw it in that shop.  I failed miserably, then I went back to playing Battletech. But I never got over the way that Terminator or any Space Marine looked, and when years pasted I found myself brought into the Fold of the Imperium.  Loving every bit of the Dark 41st Millennium and the Brotherhood  of Post Human Super Warriors Known as Space Marines.

Which Brings me to the meat an potatoes of this post. If you play 40k you love Space Marines. You might be a hardcore Tyranid player, or ork, necron, etc... Somewhere inside you is lurking that inner Astartes. Me and Mike where talking the other day about which Chapter we would belong too. With my love of Grey knights and Crimson fists aside it was decided that I am indeed a Blood Angel. I am noble and refined but get me in the heat of a fight and I am an animal unleashed. Our friend Jay is a true blue Ultramarine player however he is a Dark Angel. Cause for as much as I respect and hetro-love the man. He is as Arrogant as  he is brilliant a true son of the Lion. It was also decided that we all have an inner Space Wolf. We all have the hidden deep down desire to just eat, drink, fight, and well you get the hint. Mike for as much as he loves being sneaky and underhanded, a prime Raven Guard Candidate. He is however an Ultramarine he is a by the book, regimented kind of sneaky and underhandedness. Something that the Ultramarines would just called ingenious tactical maneuvering lest their honor be sullied. So I will pose the question to you, and your group. What chapter are you?
