  1. Nice dude, you have an awesome amount of work done already. Here's what you have to do in my humble opinion....Take a unit that is partly painted, and set aside the rest of your army. Just looking at them all can be EXTREMELY daunting. Once they are set aside, take that partly painted army and go to town. Looks like you have most of your units like 1/3 of the way done...

    Now that you have your unit set aside...Try running a nice wash over them, letting it set into all the cracks and krevices and give it time to dry. Once dried...get a lighter blue since your army is pretty darn blue..and Dry-Brush over your models..that will be the 2/3 point.

    Last but not least add your simple highlights and details to the smaller areas...eyes, edges of armor and make sure to do SOMETHING with your bases afterwards because that makes all the difference in the world!

    From there dude, honestly make this unit something that YOU are SUPER proud of, because you want to look at this one everytime you go to paint a new unit...it will totally inspre you to take another unit and then another after that until you feel like a Freakin' Rock Star when you put these out on the table and play. ;)

  3. The feud was one to be written into the scrolls of time and told by both sides as stories to our companies in latter years. No one ceased the victory as it was shared between the two feuding chapters. The objectives were owned by Dark Angels and Space Wolves alike.

    -I sure as hell learned alot about my army.. :)
