I remembered seeing some of Bryan Ansell's collection on the Eldritch Epistles blog and headed over there to browse the galleries (as you do) and decided I would try and emulate the Advanced Space Crusade Plastic Sergeant in the Blood Angels colour scheme.
Here's my attempt:
Not an exact replication, but I'm more than happy with him.
I'm not sure wether I'll use plastic or metal (or a mix of both) minis for his squad...
Thumbs up from me! :)

ReplyDeleteCheers mate :)
DeleteNice work, Bruno. Think I prefer yours, personally.
ReplyDeleteThanks for that mate.
DeleteI like it! Nicely done! :)
ReplyDeleteCheers man!
DeleteI like it, its red rather than orange, which I prefer. Its a funny old goofy sculpt, definitely a classic in its own strange way.
ReplyDeleteIf you have the appropriate metal scouts then I would mix them in if I were you. Those plastic scouts are a bit cookie cutter and the metal scouts help to break them up a bit.
Ta mate, it's definitely a bit of a goofy sculpt- the Space Wolves got (3!) metal Sgts and it's a shame the regulars didn't.
DeleteI have enough scouts for 2 BA squads and 2 for my yet to be painted Wolves- I'm planning on mixing the metals through each.
Great work, Bruno. I prefer the metal versions but I agree with Cheetor that a mixed squad of both looks pretty good. This also reminds me I have 5 or so of these plastics in need of love and attention...

I'm definitely going to go the mixed route, cheers man.
DeleteI've finished a regular plastic squaddy and they're surprisingly nice minis- better than this guy.
