NOTICE
if this is on the wrong board, just inform me and I'll delete this thread and make a new one on the correct board.

so I made my own space marine chapter, called honourbound, which are basically space samurai.
I have their lore written, and now I'd love to make a codex for them, however, I'm running into a few issues.
1. for the cover I want an image of a group of honourbound tactical marines but I have no scenery, however I do have one of those boards. (or however you call those)
2. i need a few high elf shadow warrior bitz to make the chapter master and a librarian, but i'm not gonna buy a 40 euro kit for a few heads, and can't find any bitz retailers that sell those bitz. links to the 2 bitz can be found at the end of this post.
3. because it's a space marine chapter, i want the ''codex adeptus astartes'' thing on the front, but i can't find that as an image anywhere and i also need the font(s).

are there any other sort of pitfalls i should watch out for? thanks for any sort of feedback or support.

Sounds like having a sit down with Photoshop or Gimp would be a good idea for you.
When you have something specific in mind these programs are fairly easy to use.
