The Death Company squad for the commission army that I am painting is nearly done. All that is left is a few detail pieces and another wash for the metal. These models are really nice- full of detail and capture the spirit of the Blood Angles very well. In fact, I like these models much more than the Sanguinary Guard, who lack a lot of detail on the those models. There is a lot of plain gold on those models, which is just a pain.
Here are the Sanguinary Guard that I have painted at the moment. There are another 4 that I have started on to bring the total up to 19! I thought I was done with painting gold, until I realized that there is an honor guard squad as well! More gold!! At least they don't have big white wings as well. :)

Gabe..you need to clean up your Diorama..they all appear to have gum on their shoes.. :P Excellent work man! I envy your ability to paint smooth white.
Looking very good, Dr.G... but after this will you ever be willing to paint gold again? I really like how the Death Company guys are turning out, too. How much is left for you to paint once you've finished them and the Sanguinary and Honor guards?
Hexeter- white has become kinda easy. I started with a grey foundation paint and then several layers of white. Just move in the same direction with every brush stroke, and do it a lot! Foundation paint is the key to painting white over black.
JJ- Thanks, but I don't think I'll ever paint an army that wants a total metal paint scheme again (I am looking at you Necrons!). 10 Troops plus two characters and one tank. So almost done! Only 5 of those models are solid gold.
