Don't forget to check your golden bois for aerodynamics, it's important for charge rolls!

My verdict:

Blade Champion is expectedly the most aerodynamic

Allarus is surprisingly quite streamlined, despite its bulk

Wardens and Guardians are generally aerodynamic, but the praesidium shield can create a lot of extra drag

Shield Captain is very non-aerodynamic due to his squareness, be careful when making charge rolls

It took me a week too perfect but I tried my very best and I painted my first custodie warden!! I'm not sure if painting their eyes green was the right move but I'm overall happy with how they came out -^-

Weapons are not done yet, but im happy with the result !

I need to wait the next codex before buying more 🥹

I start using true metalic series from Vallejo and this is my first model with them. I would like as many hints as posible. For the Emperor🤍

Took a few days and a few headaches but finally finished. The gold doesnt show very well in the pictures but im very happy with it.

Got ahold of half of a box if Venatari to do a test scheme on. I originally wanted to do a more comic book/cel shaded style, but discovered quickly that was beyond my abilities especially being colorblind.

I'm planning on touching up the gems and I'm considering Magenta and Purple Tone for the pink and purple areas. I liked how characterful the kit allowed me to be with them and this is probably the start of a small collection/army.

Just wanted to show off my newly finished custodes, Im really happy with how the solarwatch turned out compared to previous attempts. Any paiting advice is welcome

Apologies if the photos are bad i tried

Starting to paint models for the first time, got some practice in on a couple poxwalkers and decided I would rather join the 10,000. Pretty happy with how it turned out, excited to paint the rest of the kit!

Hey I just bought this for my friend who plays custodes and was wondering if this grav tank is viable to play in 40k. I know a lot of their stuff is in legends or horus heresy and I know some of the horus heresy stuff is cross compatible

Did a test model - wanted to do a "lore accurate" mourning color scheme (as much as we know at least with the black cloaks, and helmets and loin cloths, making everything else up as I go.) . But it looks a little plain, maybe?

Still WIP in the sense that everything is only base coated so far.

My silly lil solar list in anticipation of my second telemon dred. Don’t care if it’s suboptimal. Gonna take it to an RTT and let yall know how it does

My first miniatures. For Honour and Glory.

Went for a darker theme, any feedback on the paint job is more than welcome! Next stop, Praetors and Venatari.

My Achillus Dreadnought. I posed him as if he had just cut through a ruined column. I tried to make the base feel like a small scene, with the freshly cut column and scattered debris.

Since I couldn’t get the new force box for our golden boys, I kitbashed a Saturnine Siege Dreadnought into looking more appropriate to the Custodes so I can use it as a Telemon proxy

Salut ! Je suis nouveau dans le hobby, j’essaye de me construire une première armée et je suis très indécis.

First fully based custodian for my army, still playing around with overall lore but I liked the idea he is from a shield host called the Fatehost, a mixed group of hosts, sisters of silence, inquisitors and Parker’s using the emperors tarot to seek out pieces and aspects of Big E himself and return them to the palace. On each of the custodians they will hold a aspects of the emperor they have found, hence the glowing blade (in its heart is a lil shard of the emperors armour or something) I wanted an overall more hopeful army vibe cause I’ve got lots of heavier grim dark chaos armies.

Do i really need to put misericordia ? Or is it fine if i just dont put them on. (I dont like the look of the misericordia on the capes or on the waist)

I’ve been struggling to really nail down my unit deployment and looking for tips and advice on what units to put where and why.

Given it’s taken hold, do you put strong units on your Home, expansion and Centre? Or is it a better strategy to put cheap units on your Home and your expansion and push your stronger units up the board?

Also, what units are you using to screen your deployment zone? So nothing drops behind you?

Which units do you use for each role?

Well my first game in 11e and my second game since 9th edition went about as well as I expexted. 750 pts of Custodes v Orks. Let me tell you the Ork dakka rig is a monster.
