Thank you so much. I was super happy with how they turned out. I thought of how I was going to do that while I was painting the assault squads. It worked out better than I had hoped for too.
Solid video!. Very fair criticism of the box set and I agree that they should include a transfer sheet at minimum for other models you'll purchase beyond the box set itself
Excellent video and perfect timing. I just bought this box set of my first ever models as I love the IX legion! This will help tremendously, now just need to buy paints and tools! 🫡
@@morewarhammer Cheers for the response. But unfortunately I’m not to be honest, I’m having a tough time choosing quality tools and paints. I know I will want an airbrush but sounds like I’ll be spending more than the cost of the boxset by the time I’m done 😂
Class video again man and yeah agree with Adam about the fair assessment. Fair play on the hand painted crosses on the shoulders. Beaut models for sure
You will get better and better. Just start. Also make sure you thin your paints with water to keep the coats thin. This will make it much easier to respray them on you want to later down the line. Check out wet pallets.
Thank you so much! It was a lot faster than I expected which was nice. Do like to break out the sponge from time to time. Will/have you be painting some?
@@morewarhammer I’m gonna have to try it out, it turned out epic! I have painted them, they were so much fun but I was definitely not as speedy as you were haha
Great video, the models turned out awesome. It seems like quite a few people are enjoying AOS/Spearhead a bit more lately....I think that is great, I love bouncing between AOS and 40k armies.
Thank you so much. So happy with them. Yeah I am loving spearhead. I am excited to get another game in soon. Have you played much spearhead? What’s your armies for both?
Awesome video as always dude! Even though I’ve abandoned Sanguinius for Russ, these look amazing! I’ll be using some of these techniques for my home brew chapter for sure! Great work buddy! 🤙🤩
Watching this has made it difficult not to succumb to my grey [pile] rage and buy this box set. Great video. Blood angels are definitely my favourite chapter now. Fangs down.
Very cool idea on painting black. I still cannot believe how fast you can paint. Do you glue on the grass after painting the base? You can add that new combat patrol for some gold and red for the army. Looks like you have plenty of blood angles in your collection.
Thank you. It worked out better than I expected honestly. The grass has a little tacky texture to the bottom so I just stick them down. I am excited to get the new guard too.
Great video! Why did you decide to take the whole slap chop route for the black armor instead of a simple gentle dry brush of grey right over the primer?
Did you steal these painted minis from the eavy metal team directly or how did you manage to do such amazing work in such short time. Brilliant paint job
Astorsth looks great! What did you use for his armour? I cannot wait for my copy of the box :)! 18h for all is fast, i cannot even come close to such a time frame xD
Thank you. I dry brushed him then used blood angels contrast on the muscle fibers on the suit. Then I dry brush the red with some Mephiston red to make it pop a bit more. It was a lot faster than I expected. It was a minimal approach too. I didn’t stick any extra equipment on the marines but I don’t like doing that much anyway. I find it makes the model look too busy.
I just got this box but I really don’t want to paint them black. But it feels like a waste to not utilize the death company stuff as it is? I’m just starting Blood Angels so I’m kind of lost.
I was thinking as I watched, "it didn't come with death company shoulder pads?" What a weird choice. Looks great though, Lemartes especially. How did you find the Black Legion/ Black Templar is my go-to black for everything, that paint is amazing, but I don't think I've ever used Black Legion.
Yeah I thought it was a weird decision. I know they exist too. Thank you so much Lemartes was a lot of fun to paint. Such a great pose too. I prefer legion to Templar for true black. Templar has a little bit of blue in it from what I remember them telling me. I can’t imagine there is a huge difference though.
Dark angels player here: I wanted to know from BA players if you’re let down a bit from the upgrade sprue and this box of death company. When it was revealed I just saw this as a lets get rid of stocks of minis that aren’t selling well and attach 2 HQ and not give them a dedicated shoulder pad for the company they are meant to lead. I feel they could have removed some of the bare faces and squeeze in the death company pauldron. I’d appreciate hearing your thoughts on it.
100% dissapointed. I preordered the box expecting that the upgrade sprues will have the dedicated shoulder pads and other iconography just to find out that they do not. It can not get any more basic when it comes to the sprues... I'll resort to purchasing dedicated shoulder pads from some 3D printer person on Etsy.
Yeah I was disappointed honestly. Blood angels are of course my favourite lads but they just missed it on this one I think. It’s not the worst but it could have been better. Dark angels are a beautiful army too. Painting the deathwing box made me fall in love with them too.
Watching this is not making it easier for me to avoid splurging on this box today. Do the new upgrade sprues give you enough to make the DC comparable to firstborn?
I hope you can resist the urge…but I also don’t 😂. Not sure as it been a while since I have seen a firstborn DC model but there are a decent amount of sprues on the frame and you get 4 in the box.
I was bummed too that they didn't include any Death Company specific iconography in the box set. But they didn't with the Death Company Intercessor box either, so I'm not really surprised. I think from the idea that, as a Blood Angel succumbs to the Black Rage, they wouldn't issue new armor to the marine, they would paint the armor of that marine. So not having DC symbols as part of the armor design kind of makes sense (if you forget that they use to do that with Death Company prior to Primaris Marines). Still, was very happy with the box set. The special edition codex and data sheets with the blood red leafing was a very nice touch in my opinion. But Games Workshop putting out a Death Company box without include at least Death Company pauldrons was a let down. The new upgrade sprue was nice too with having fangs on the heads without helmets.
@@morewarhammerno problem. I personally don’t have a big problem with you using it and I can also see why you didn’t catch it being ai because it looks really good. Fantastic video btw. I am really looking forward to getting this and was surprised that its still available
@@morewarhammer Yeah, they look good and they looked fun to paint. I've come to the conclusion that, even though White Scars are the coolest of all space marines, the rest of my unpainted, chainsword wielding, medically enhanced supersoldiers will be from a custom chapter. Painting white is just to much of a hassle and red on top of white is really unforgiving 😩 Might end up using some of these tricks in that process 👌
@@sanderhpyeah white is a very hard colour to work with. I would do them grey seer prime then wash with apothocary white contrast. That might make it less unforgiving.
Great video again … that Astorath model’s armour looks incredible should be proud of that 👍
Thank you so much. I was super happy with how they turned out. I thought of how I was going to do that while I was painting the assault squads. It worked out better than I had hoped for too.

Brilliant video. I've been binge watching a ton of your videos, keep them coming! This is the kind of 40k content I've been looking for 👊🏼
Dude thank you so so much. You have no idea how much comments like this mean to me. Appreciate you and your support mate.
@morewarhammer that's great to hear! Looking forward to future videos 👍
Great video! Love Blood Angels!
My chosen chapter for sure. Who would be your 2nd favourite?
About to do the same challenge
How did you get on?
As a templar painter....i know the pain of painting black so much 😂 its painful! But you did an amazing job. The Astorath model is beautifully done!
Ohh yeah I bet you do haha. I was thinking of you when I saw the death company 😂. Thank you! He was a lot of fun to paint too.
Favorite army you’ve done so far! Epic!
Ahh thank you so much. I really enjoyed this one.

Thank you Jonny.
Cracking job Ben! Death company are awesome
Really appreciate you dude. Always see you comment on my videos and I really can’t thank you enough.
Great video brother. Going in later this week to buy it after watching this 🙏🏼
Thank you dude. I hope you enjoy it as much as I did. Some beautiful models and the codex 😍🤌🏻
These look great!
Thank you so much Bob. Really appreciate you.
Astorath looks epic. Great job and a good time on all the models.
Honestly I was so happy with him. Decided to go for a flaming axe rather than the plasma looking one they have.
Looks great, pre ordered my copy today and can’t wait to get it
Ahh hell yeah James. You going for death company too?
Have this preordered - loved the end result so will try and copy your technique!
Any help just ask. Really appreciate it and I hope you enjoy it as much as I did.
Top paint jobs here absolutely smashed it!
Thank you so much Mitch. Really appreciate that. Death company were a fun challenge for sure.
Models look amazing and its great to see your channel growing so quickly! Keep up the awesome work! 😁

Great job man!! I’m gonna do this for mine - it won’t look as good but I’ll take what I can get!!!
I am sure they will look great Stuart. Any help just ask by the way. I hope you get yours soon.

Welcome to the team brother.
Class video again man and yeah agree with Adam about the fair assessment. Fair play on the hand painted crosses on the shoulders. Beaut models for sure
Thank you man. Yeah something to address that would have been great. Some are better than others 😂
Ordered it as my first army, completely new to warhammer and i im so scared to paint it

nice one mate
Thank you man. So happy with how it came out. Who is your favourite chapter?
Great video!
Why did you decide to take the whole slap chop route for the black armor instead of a simple gentle dry brush of grey right over the primer?
That would also have been a good idea. I honestly didn’t even think about it.
Thank you so much for the support and suggestion too.
On the blood angels what would be better to highlight pink or orange
I would push up to orange rather than pink.
Great review! Question, is there anywhere I can see up close pictures of the miniatures from this video? Specifically the Company Heroes?
I should do a full army showcase shouldn’t I. I was actually really happy with those company heroes.
I think I will drop some on my IG (@morewarhammer)

Did you steal these painted minis from the eavy metal team directly or how did you manage to do such amazing work in such short time. Brilliant paint job
😂 thank you so much. The trick is to paint one model or two then just break in at night.
Black primer... Details then oil it. 😅
Smart 🤌🏻

Thanks Seb. Really happy with how the box turned out.

@@LetsGeekItOut appreciate you dude.
Hello from France ! Nice job ! I d like to make mines like you death company. How did you make the Aquila ? Wich colors are ?
Thank you so much. Welcome to the channel. That was runelord brass or bronze.
I've bought some Death Company transfers from etsy so I don't have to freehand the crosses
You legend! I will have a look there.
ayo was hoping to find this kinda comment still pretty fresh to painting WH mini's aint no way im free handing the red X's LOL
Can u paint these guys as normal blood angels? Like does the thing on the chest have the blood angels crest or just like an X m
Yeah 100% you can paint them as regular blood angels. 💪🏻
I hate that they didn’t do shoulder pads. How hard would it be really? I’m going to have to buy some as I can’t have just painted ones
I agree. It was a shame. I thought I had just missed them but nope. Apparently Etsy has some good options.
Any idea when this box will be out as I can’t find it on the website. Great video
It’s been out a while now. You might have more luck on other website like goblin gaming, wayland or element of you are UK based.
Hi, any chance you could let us know what music is playing at the showcasing? 9 minutes in? I just need more of that please :d
