Hi,

Trying to add some flare to my Imperial fists.

I've just started swaping out sargeant helms for greyknight helms to add a little fuedal era flavor to the army.

I ran out, so I humbly ask dakka dakka for help.

So what would you put on the sargeants? IYHO what is the coolest/ most epic helms in the GW line?

Or something I could sculpt.

Plz include pics or links if its cool.

In my view the best helmet for a space marine is the Iron Warriors head on the middle and right:

For one-off helmets I really like the puppetwars Spartans, they really add a unique touch to a mini.

They are not 'GW line' as such but useable with them, designed for them and you can still play in a GW store with a model that has one.

My vote goes for the Corvus Power Armor, aka Bird-Helm. Mostly because to me, the others look odd... Except maybe the Iron/GK helmets. Those look good.

I ain't got time to die, I'm too busy exterminating!

Now, we descend into battle like Angels from on high. The Emperor depends upon us as his messengers, and we shall know no fear! WE ARE SPACE MARINES!

Space Marines can only be male because marine implants only take with the male physiology. Males and females have differing hormone levels in terms of estrogen, testoterone, etc. Thank you for reading this.

I think the guy on the right, here, is awesome, simple design with just a little chapter iconography added. If so inclined, you could use these and justify the scorpion iconography by saying a sergeant has to go and kill a giant scorpion fromthe blah blah whatever plains...

Sevrin Loths Honour Guard, from Forgeworld. I do think the GK helmets will be a much easier (and more readily available) option for you though

If you're up for sculpting something though, check out the helmets on the SoB (bottom left of this pic) - they're pretty cool and would be unique in a SM force

Personal vote goes to MK VIII 'Errant' helm, but not because of the helm. The raised-collar look gives it a superior feel that I like. Second place goes to beakie marines. Third and fourth place aren't technically helmets, but bare heads.



Best looking head in the Imperium. (Personally, I went with grey hair and a more Phantom-esque bone color for the mask) Great for someone you want to stick out.

The last one is one of the Chaos Marine heads. I can't find a picture, but it looks like a bare head, with just the breather apparatus on. Very sinister looking.

My vote is for Mk IV helmets. They're pretty boss I believe.

Imo the best helmets are found in the Eldar/Dark Eldar mini lines. Personally I think the Incubi helmets are both unique and badass.
