This is more to keep myself accountable than anything else. I've picked up the dark Angels codex, and I am building an army of it, and my goal is to paint it in full before August. This is my 1850 list.
Demi company includes: Chaplain (kitbashed and finished painted 7/22/2015, images on page 2) Three tactical squads, two with rhinos (I've worked on the squads since Saturday) (Update, finished July 11, 2015, images below) One assault squad without jump packs 7 man Devastator squad with four missile launchers Rifleman dreadnought (base coated green) (Update, finished July 13, 2015, image below)
Other units: Azrael (dark vengeance company master, already painted) and watcher in the dark with his helmet Tech marine (finished 7/22/2015, images posted on page 2) Land raider crusader (base coated green) Vindicator
I am at work right now and have no photos, but wanted to toss this out there.

How are you running the assault squad, in the LR w/ IC's?

I'm planning on putting the techmarine and azrael in the squad with them. As for the squad'so load out, I'm going just sword and pistol on everyone except the sergeant who has a power sword.

First update: I have painted the 30 tactical marines. I have not based them because I am either going to get larger bases for them to be game legal, or I am going to get base extenders. Probably the latter because it's cheaper that way, and I'm cheap. Without further ado, I have finished photos of the three tactical squads (except for company marks on the left knee pad and squad numbers on the right shoulder. I'm doing them soon, shut up!) Group shot of all three squads. First Squad, with some sand because I had worked on them before this month. Second Squad, all work done within the last two weeks. Third Squad, all work done within the last two weeks.

Oh, it looks like you can see the dreadnought and the assault squad in the background. Walker is next.

And here is the rifleman dread. *edit, not sure why the picture is sideways, but oh well I'm really liking the airbrush I got, thank you to all who advised me in what to get and and how to operate it. Next to the dread is the dark vengeance company master that I like a lot, so I am using him as Azrael. He's been painted for more than a year, so he doesn't count, but I still need to make the watcher in the dark that holds his helmet. Assault squad is next.

New rule: no points for a sideways model.

You've let your power corrupt you. And he's been hanging that Super Scourge thread over our heads ever since #neverforget
