Just found this Dark Angel rattling around in the bitz box (probably looking for the Fallen in there). Indeed I think I first acquired him as a test model for a scheme to build some Fallen Angels to serve as backup to my Chaos Marines, a scheme which has been on the backburner almost as long as the Dark Angels have been hunting for the real Fallen.
Empowered by the warping energies of Tzeentch, and with the Changer of Ways very much on my mind after this weekend’s releases, I found myself asking – could I turn him into a Sorcerer using the parts that were left over from Mazzakim? After all robes are very much the clothing option of choice for knights of Caliban and wizards alike.
Overall I’m pretty please with him – what do you think?

Perfect natch of styles – me like!

Aye, that’s what I thought. I’m off to rummage around and see if I can dig up the rest of the squad!

I like how he is holding up his off-hand. It looks something like either how people sometimes hold up their hand in martial arts movies when they are trying to concentrate before attacking, or how they did ancient statues of victorious conquerors where they have one hand raised with two fingers extended. Of the two, it looks more like the first one to me — I think someone is about to have a bad day via force axe.

The former was very much what I had in mind – although he’s a sorcerer he’s a space marine (and thus a warrior) first and foremost and I thought that when it comes to focussing and unleashing his powers he would concentrate his energies in a similar fashion to a martial artist. I like the second possibility as well though, it adds to his sense of grandeur and arrogance.

You can never have too much grandeur and arrogance to counter the misplaced arrogance as well as the false grandeur of the so-called loyalist marines!

Haha. My WP kept crashing so I wasn’t sure if it worked.
