More themed Imperial Guard armies all commissioned on a well done display case. Then id buy guard models with my infinite funds and sell them for 20% retail value and make a killing on the market. Win. Win.

If I had infinite funds I guess my next army would be the Imperium of Man, all several billion of them. I'd need every commissioned painter on the planet to paint it, but hey, I have infinite funds, right?

I think I would build the entire Order of the Argent Blade, which is the name I've given to the Minor Order Militant of the Adeptus Sororitas I've used in a number of games, and for which my Sisters forces are painted to belong to.
They tend to favor mobility, so that's a hefty number of Dominican-pattern drop pods and Rhinos to field, as well as a thousand Sisters of various classifications.

I'd then use Movie Marine stats for them, and go ask at my FLGS who is up for a no-points-limit Apocalypse game.

Preacher of the Emperor

More space nuns. Specifically, my own custom Minor Order built up to 1000 Sisters. Tactically, they enjoy hitting the enemy as hard and as abruptly as possible, so that could mean Dominions, Seraphim and Rhinos/Immos being quite prominent. And, of course, there would also be plenty of accessories throughout to give a few models here and there some character. Things like purity seals or bionic eyes.
But, if I wanted to be silly, all six Major Orders. Each one can be up to 7000 Sisters strong (I think...), so that's a whole lot of space nuns.
