Dark Angels Vehicle Doors

Every Astartes transport looks like every other one until the doors change, which is the whole reason panels like these exist. These are hatch faces cut in the First Legion's style: the winged sword, robed and hooded figures, and the heavy gothic framing that separates a Dark Angels machine from a generic hull rolling out of a forge world. The Dark Angels keep more secrets than most chapters and their heraldry says so. The iconography is monastic, ceremonial, faintly funereal rather than triumphant, and on a tank flank it does a great deal of narrative work for very little effort. A plain armoured box becomes a Ravenwing or Deathwing vehicle largely through the marks it wears. Supplied as a single file. Aimed at kitbashers and army painters who want chapter heraldry on their armour rather than blank plating, and at anyone stocking the bits box ahead of an army-scale project.
