**The Bloody Handed God**

H'okay, so I'm going to be starting to build out the 2500 or so points in CSM that I have and I was looking for some help on the paint scheme. I have a few different schemes I was looking at using and I'd like some input. I'll be making test models for them but I've got these so far.

Nightlords

Apocalypse company

Brotherhood of Darkness

I really like all three of them mainly because of the extra added stuff I'd paint on whether it's runs, fire, or lightning.

**Vindicator#9**

I actually like Apocalypse Company then Night Lords. Its close between those two the last just looks too busy to me. Hey what do i know everyone likes something different.

**IZ TOM**

The bleak brotherhood(Which is the exactly the same as the apocalypse company, a mistake by gw)!

**The Bloody Handed God**

I was thinking if I did apocalypse company that I'd do four horsemen of the apocalypse type something, maybe lords or sorcerer's or something, but an hq most likely. One for each god though, I think it'd be interesting.

Also, brotherhood of darkness, if I did them i wouldn't put so much stuff on it, that's just way too hard to put so many runes on.

**Grambo**

Night lords

**The Bloody Handed God**

I think I'm mainly between nightlords and apocalypse company right now. I was considering alpha legion as well though. I don't want t do something so black I guess, but I really like the look of apocalypse company and I think I could get some goof fluff out of it.

**Teeffless**

1st one all the way, imho

**RaegMachine**

Night Lords

What are you referring to because it sent me to the main site...

**Scrazza**

i'd choose the night lords.

**The Bloody Handed God**

So I'm thinking about Alpha Legion as well

I've also had the idea to combine the apocalypse company and brotherhood, keeping the black and green color and flames, and then runes, but doing a quartering method with it. I think it'd be pretty cool looking. I'm thinking of subbing out the black for a different color though.

**poipo32**

Brotherhood of Darkness all the way, the runes look badass.

**Q0rbin**

Make your own chapter!

**The Bloody Handed God**

I've been thinking about it to be honest. I have been messing around the the bolter and chainsword painter a bit, I need to get photoshop though so I can tweak it more than the painter allows me to.

**31rls31**

Apocalypse company

ive never seen it on a tabel

Dito

**Torch**

Apocalypse looks super bad. So I'd definately go with those. The details may get strenuous doing a 2500 point army. Thats alot of flames...

**The Bloody Handed God**

I really need to download photoshop so I can merge apocalypse company and Brotherhood of Darkness. I'd love to try a quartering scheme with green flames and runes.

**Samus_aran115**

ALPHA LEGION!

They're really cool. I was thinking of doing them, but decided on black legion for some reason. I'm integrating some word bearers too.

**BAD2**

Apoc! Have a theme reflecting the end of the Imperium!

**The Bloody Handed God**

Yeah, I'm definitely thinking I'm going to do a model with the apoc color scheme, some flames and some runes. Plus I have an idea that they'll be chaos undivided and make the four horsemen of the apocalypse. One for each god, ok yeah, I'm loving this idea. :3

**Nalyd**

Nightlords!

**Praxiss**

Go for the apoc. compnay. The main legiosn are oens you see wuite often so you woudl have a truly unique lookign army.

**The Bloody Handed God**

Yeah I think I'm going to make an alternate apoc like I said before. I;ll probably get a test mini done this weekend.

**Alpharius**

Clearly Alpha Legion are the best, but since they are actually quite loyal, you'll probably have to go another direction...

Night Lords are quite good too, but I'd minimize (actually, eliminate) the bat wings on the helmets and go more for the 'terror markings' (white skull painted over the face) instead.

Keep us updated!

**nirvana69**

brothers and apocalypse are pretty cool...

**Valkyrie**

I would go for the Apocalypse Company if their emblem was different, but the Night Lords are equally as cool.

**The Bloody Handed God**

I am really excited to paint up my idea for brotherhood of darkness. apocalypse company mix and match. It'll get done this weekend for sure. Might do up a nightlords and an alpha legion model as well. Mind as well seeing as I have a three models made and primed for it.

**hershey555**

Brother hood of darkness. no contest.
