Going to be starting a space marine army after Christmas and want to paint them as an official chapter, but not one of the mainstream ones.
Was thinking a successor chapter to the smurfs but which one??

Here's a list of the 2nd founding chapters, if you're interested.

Iron Snakes or Aurora Chapter look pretty good from where I'm sitting.

celestial lions are cool and have some pretty awesome fluff

Sons of Orar have a good look, as long as you don't mind all the 'you painted your blood angels wrong' comments
