I also designed my army with a similar concept from the Night Lords where instead of decorating their army with glorious sigils and emblems, they decorate themselves with skulls and spikes. I think I got the idea of this from lots of black metal bands wearing spiked arm and knee guard lol


I was even considering just using some chaos models but play them as loyalists because I don't think you can get the hair plumes as individual bits. Anyone done anything like this before? I'm not too great on conversions and the such.


And as a related/side question: Is there any special customization you give your army besides just painting them their own colors? ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/695660/8754898.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/695660/8754898.page GMT FLGS with a squad of them painted up like Space Wolves for some reason and it looks pretty good. I never was able to ask the owner why somebody used CSM as loyalists though.

Another option is third party bitz places. Just look up 28mm helmet crests and you should be set.

As far as customization, I use a Micron Pen on my tanks to write silly stuff like GI tankers did in WW2.

Also my Space Marines are almost all in Mk 4 armor.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/695660/8755055.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/695660/8755055.page GMT Your chapter concept seems kinda dark (which is totally cool) but I feel that you may find, in the end, that they simply look like a chaos army.

If I were you I would consider kit-bashing between regular and chaos marines and cut away/file off any obvious chaos insignia.

Something else you may consider (as Chef of Cadia mentioned) is looking into 3rd party bits. Do not forget about Forgeworld either.
I feel like the Sons of Horus kits may be right up your ally as far as spikiness is concerned

I hope this helps ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/695660/8758285.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/695660/8758285.page GMT Stay away from the Daemonic and provided you have a well laid plan I reckon it wouldn't look too bad or Chaos-y. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/695660/8758454.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/695660/8758454.page GMT
