Flesh Tearer Squad complete

Flesh Tearer squad

I finally finished these guys the other day. They are pulling double duty being fitted with regular packs and jump packs as well by the way of magnets. They were huge departure for me in terms of how I highlight models (following the GW scheme) and painting a darker red since most of the time I paint a much brighter and purer red for Blood Angels.

I have to be honest, I really like how these guys came out and they are in my top five color scheme for sure. Here are a couple of the squad members.

I'm going to include a picture of the banner bearer as well since I'm still putting the "how to" together for it. I think this guy really makes the squad stand out. Of course I'm partial to banners so it may just be me.

Flesh Tearer Banner bearerThis one was a real challenge for me since I was working on the plastic Space Marine banner and not starting from scratch and using cardstock as I prefer to do.

The image was provided and it was my job to simply get it on there. I think I did a pretty good job in the end seeing as how I don't do it this way very often and I wanted to make sure the quality of the banner held up to the quality of the squad overall.

I won't lie, I learned a good number of lessons painting this thing. I'll have all of them together in another post on the banner alone in the coming days.
