Den of Imagination Table of Blood Angels: Retro Army

den of imagination blood angelsBlood Angels never looked so good! Check out this incredible army done up in some deep blacks and crisp reds from Den of Imagination.

Den of Imagination has some signature painting styles that they’ve thrown into this Blood Angels showcase. Check out this army full of depth and conversions as we get a deeper look into the armory of Baal.

Let the Blood Flow: Den of Imagination Blood Angels Showcase

Den of Imagination Blood Angels ShowcaseThis army was first painted well before Primaris were ever a thing in 40k. So as we go through this army, you’ll notice that there are a lot more bodies than what a normal Blood Angels army might run on the tabletops today.

But on that note, most of the Blood Angel’s star units aren’t even Primaris anyway. So let’s dig into what the Sons of Sanguinius have to offer.

With the Stratagem support that came out of Blood of Baal, these dudes are no joke. Especially if you use them in conjunction with a Death Company wrecking ball squad to clear screens.

Den of Imagination Blood Angels ShowcaseNow would you believe that Den of Imagination can do some free-hand work like nobody’s business? What looks as crisp as a normal stencil, these Death Company logos are actually all done by hand…But you haven’t seen anything yet.

Den of Imagination Blood Angels ShowcaseLook at this masterpiece on the back of a Land Raider. Sanguinius and Horus have been painted with the outcome the Blood Angels really wish they could’ve had- where Sanguinius killed off Horus before anything got out of hand.

The army is a collection that any Blood Angels fan would love to look at. If you’re wanting to see even more, press play on the full showcase from Den of Imagination on YouTube below.
