The Primarchs would have owned helmets (for space actions if nothing else, even Primarchs need to breathe), but FW never made any. So what would they have looked like? I've found a few pictures, post if you have any others!

I am curious to the helmet designs of the rest of them. Gulliman's (at least on his new model) is just a slightly fancier current Space Marine helmet. I think the only one that doesn't use/need a helmet would be Mortation because of his gasmask

Always wanted to see what Horus' helmet would have looked like, given it is described as being incredibly intimidating when he puts it on in the presence of Maloghurst in Vengeful Spirit. Would have been nice for FW to do helmet upgrade packs for most of the Primarchs.

Konrad Curze had a winged skull helmet, there should be some decent art around of that.

Where he's punching dudes in half. It's pretty 40k for sure.

Greebo had spent an irritating two minutes in that box. Technically, a cat locked in a box may be alive or it may be dead. You never know until you look. In fact, the mere act of opening the box will determine the state of the cat, although in this case there were three determinate states the cat could be in: these being Alive, Dead, and Bloody Furious.

Is there really that few pictures of the helmets? Even a Google search shows there's not even really fanart either. Kinda amazing, really.

Like the idea for the sanguinius helmet, maybe corax's was the base of what would later become that of the Corvus/beakie power armour

I can imagine petarbos being tricked out with some kind of advanced optics to fit with his heavily upgraded and modified Armour.

Mprtichions. More a Mk3 maybe design master made but nothing showy.

FudgeDumper - It could be that you are just so uncomfortable with the idea of your chapters primarch having his way with a docile tyranid spore cyst, that you must deny they have any feelings at all.

The first Night Lords novel Lord of the Night revolves around protagonist Zso Sahaal recovering the Corona Nox, a crown that belonged to Konrad Kurze that would "unite" the Legion.

I always pictured some sort of pointy batman ears.

Am I the only one that thinks the Lion's armour looks suspiciously like that of a Chaos Warrior? Just a coincidence, I'm sure...

Maybe a lot of chaos warriors look like Dark Angels... as if they had some kind of shared heritage or something...

I could imagine Russ having a breather mask just so he never has to wear a helmet - just to be different.

I don't break the rules but I'll bend them as far as they'll go.
