In my army, I'll be referring to them as First Acolyte Zelos and the Dark Apostle's Honour Guard. The shields and the halberds are all from the Chaos Knights kit for Warhammer Fantasy. I think it gives the squad a more 'heavy' and 'ponderous' feel to them compared to normal (Chaos) Marines.
Now, the only god-specific Troop type I'm missing is a squad of Plague Marines. I have a few ideas, but I'm not at all sure how I'll represent the T5 and FnP without doing some serious conversion work...
I think the use of parts from the Chaos Knight on your “Dark Apostle’s Honour Guard” worked very well indeed! The shields are a good representation of their extra protection, and definitely give them a “heavy” and ancient look. As always – strong paint job.
ReplyDeletePlague Marines – I guess the key word is “decay”….
Nice work indeed.
ReplyDeleteThe "storm" shields really makes them stand out from the rest of the army and ads a nice touch to the models.
job`s a goodn
Hey, look! The 'Honour Guard' squad picture was featured on another blog; Screwed Up Dice.
