I been painting my Blood Angels by priming the model white, then a coat of blood red, ink the model in magenta ink, then doing the other details. Is there any other way thats easier?

Do you mean easier or better? Your title says better your post says easier. I think that as far as easy is going you sound like you have a quick and easy method. If you want to get better results you could try some highlights. A very small amount of orange applied to the edges of the Blood angels armout will bring out the shapes of your Marines. You could also try more shading by using black in the corners and recesses of your Marines.

Basic version of the way I did mine...

Chaos Black base
Mechrite Red
black wash
Red Gore
black wash
Blood Red
redgore wash
Blood Red highlights
Blood Red / orange fury(?)

Basically lots of thin layers wins the day.
