Well Gents,
A little while ago I posted a thread talking about having all my
SM armies under one chapter. The idea was simple, have multiple codex armies, just all painted the same to allow for free use and quick swap ability. The decision from there was tough, which one chapter to pick. I currently have
SW,
DA, Pre-Heresy
DA (Doubles as Chaos),
BA, and some vanilla marines. With that being said, I have settled on converting everything to
BA. They were my first true
SM love, and what brought me to
40k.
I am going to do this in phases:
Phase 1:
SW
Phase 2:
BA Assault Army
Phase 3:
DA
Phase 4: Pre-Heresy
DA?
Starting with Phase 1: I will be taking my
SW and turning them into
BA. This will include some simple repainting, but also some new modeling. This is where input from the dakka-dakka community will help.
Anyway, here are some pics of the
SW before they see the Simple Green/Totally Awesome Vat.
I will be stripping most of the marine with the skull markings on their weapons and replacing them with more "ornate" weaponry. So that leads to the issue of the "Mark of Wulfen" troops. How do I model them in
BA? I was thinking of a savage looking
BA Marine with half his armor gone, like someone gone over to the Red Thirst, but some modeling tips/advice would be helpful in that regard.
Anyway, this will be updated as much as I can. Due to work that may be once a month. But I generally do a lot in a little time.
An open mind is like a fortress with its gates unbarred and unguarded
