Just to get used to painting and improve my techniques, i thought rather than trying it on my army, i'd try it on some other models i had given to me as a gift by the lovely girlfriend. When i started i couldn't decide between Orks or Ultramarines, so she got me a bit of both, a box of Ork Boyz and Marneus Calgar. When the Blood Angel Codex came out, that threw those ideas out the window. I painted them anyway and think they came out ok. The cloak of Marneus looks cool but doesn't look so good on the photograph. I couldn't seem to catch it right (and i'm a photographer!! i quit!! haha). I just painted the Nob of the boyz but Orks are very cool and fun to paint
I'm currently painting a 5 man Death Company Squad. They should be done soon so i'll get a picture up as soon as they're done.
Very nice work! For someone who has been out of the Hobby a while you certainly haven't lost any of your painting skills!
