The army grows

I have reached the point where I can double the size of my army and using the 6th edition rules I can include the Blood Angles to my force. Instead of being a separate army, I will add only jump infantry from Blood Angels list to keep things clear for my opponent. The Blood Angels list will provide some needed punch to my assault forces without being too expensive points-wise. Also the Stormraven will be a treat for my flying Red Talons (too bad I can’t put the Space Marines in the Blood Angels’ transports).

Here’s my TO-DO list for the 1000 points army:

1. Paint the Razorback!
2. Paint the Land Speeder
3. Basecoat and paint the Assault Marines
4. Scratch-build an Assault Chaplain (I have some ideas already about the helmet and the Crozium)
5. Build the second Tactical Squad and get it painted

The list

HQ

Space Marine Captain with Relic Blade. - 130 points
Executioner Osiron, Captain of the 2nd Company of Red Talons. 
A bulky warrior with arcane power armour. Menacing and silent. Never really got used to the moving without jump-pack. Was the Iron-Brother Sergeant of 7th Veteran Squad of 2nd Company. Has a long kill list including the Tyranid Broodlord and a full Necron Lychguard.

Troops

Space Marine 10-man Tactical Squad with Plasmacannon, meltagun. Sergeant with Chainsword and Storm bolter. Carried in Razorback Stronos with Dozerblade. - 270 points
"Red Tyrants", 3rd Tactical Squad of the 2nd Company of Red Talons. Long history of fighting against Tyranids. Most notable conflict was the Deliverance Incident on M38.

Led by Iron-Brother Lurcas. A tough warrior with scars to prove it. Has been able to dodge some bullets during Deliverance war. Carries a Storm bolter and a servo-engined plasmacutter/chainsword. Also bears the squad banner. Is a Deliverance veteran with over 100 confirmed kills. Has been in the 3rd squad since initiation. Has fought beside Osiron for long time.

Rides in Razorback Stronos "Deliverance Hammer", one of the oldest vehicles in the chapter. A custom armoured vehicle with countless campaigns. Has been in the force since M35.

Space Marine 5-man Tactical Squad Sergeant with Chainsword Plasma pistol. - 105 points
"Gaunt Killers", 2nd Tactical Squad of the 2nd Company of Red Talons. Long history of fighting against Tyranids alongside the 3rd and the 1st squad.

Led by Iron-Brother Feros. A mean fighting machine from the 5th Company. Former assault sergeant chose to guide his battle brothers in more subtle manner. The subtleness however doesn’t show in any aspect.

Space Marine 6-man Scout Squad armed with Bolters, Missile Launcher.. - 98 points
"Brood Maimer" 1st Scout Squad of the 10th Company of Red Talons. 
The whole squad was terribly maimed. The 1st squad gathers the most bionical scouts in the Red Talons army to form a tough fighting squad.

Squad is lead by a seasoned veteran Iron-brother Pherra. He was an Assault marine sergeant in 8th Company but was promoted to lead the 1st squad of recruits during the Deliverance Incident.

Fast Attack

Space Marine Land Speeder Tornado with Multi-melta and Heavy Flamer. - 70 points
"Sand Deamons", 3rd Land Speeder Squadron of the 2nd Company of Red Talons. Heroes of the Tallarn Campaign on M39.

Led by Iron-Brother Burthens, a marine that is more machine than a man; and liking it! Using his tactical acumen he leads the Squadron into the enemy flank with deadly precision. He is known to give the recruits a hell of a ride. Barrel-roll, spins, jink-maneuvers are his specialty.

Allies:

HQ

Blood Angels Reclusiarch with Plasma pistol. - 145 points
Judge Ern, 2nd Judge of Villains, the Judge of the 2nd Company of Red Talons. Judge Ern has specialized in a jump pack assaults. He is known to build a battle frenzy for the brothers he’s accompanying. He has been mentored by Iron-Judge Quersina, the 1st Judge of Villains, for thousand years. 

Troops

Blood Angels 5-man Assault Squad with Plasma pistol. Sergeant with Power fist and Plasma pistol. - 155 points
"Kobalt Fists", 8th Assault Squad of the 2nd Company of Red Talons. The squadron is the fighting spearhead of the 2nd Company. During the 13th Black Crusade they fought the Unclean Legion on Kobalt II being victorious against the plague horde. Consisting of Plague Marines and countless Deamons the 2nd Company managed to drive the deamons back to warp and destroy most of the Plague Marines. Finghing alongside the Flesh Tearers chapter has thought them a savage way of battling the well defended foe.

Next up:

Finally some treat for the ones waiting for the Storm talon: the WIP pictures of the finished base for the Stormtalon.

I used plastic card, tube and a cable pipe for the structures

Greenstuff was used to create banks for the sewer pipes

PVA glue and sand was used to create texture

Some old internet cable was used for the power cables. Some odd Necron head was also used.

I left a space for the flyer stand so it would stand firm in the base.

Also some skulls and zombie hands were glued to where the sewerage would spill out.
