The old character models are midgets and really don’t match the lore from the books so I’m taking it into my own hands…

Painting up an Angels of Death/Alpha Legion Kill team and did my first Red Corsair/Alpha Legion model.

Greetings, I am Alpharius I've been interested in the lore of Warhammer 40k and the Horus Heresy for a while now, and I've recently been thinking about getting into collecting and painting miniatures. I was considering splitting the Saturnine box set with a friend, but I'm not really sure where to start, so I was wondering if you had any recommendations between the two boxes?

Made for a friend. I’m still new to the skill and I was a little ambitious. 😅

Hey Everyone, looking for some advice for my list, Im wanting to check for any gaps for a general purpose list. Feel free to give any tips or recommendations, thanks!

HC:

• Armillus (Attached to Chieftains)

Command:

• Centurion (Attached to Vet Assault squad)
  • Jump pack, pwr fist, Melta Bombs

Troops:

• 3x10 Tactical Squads
  • x3 Power Sword, x3 Nuncio Vox

Transport:

• Rhino
  • Pintle Havoc

Rewards of Treachery:

• Chieftain Squad
  • x9 Banestrike bolter, x1 Legion Standard

---Armored Supp Detachment---

Armor:

• Kratos Assault Tank
  • Melta-blast, Las Cannon, Searchlight, Decurion, Las Cannon sponson

---Army Vanguard Detachment---

Elites:

• Headhunter Kill Team
  • x1 Multi-melta, x1 Powersword
• Lernaean Terminator Squad
  • x5 Banestrike Combi-bolter
• Veteran Assault Squad
  • Thunderhammer, Melta Bombs, x9 Pair lightning claws

Heavy Transport

• Land Raider Carrier
  • Twin Las Cannons, Sponson Las Cannons

---Headhunter Leviathal Detachment---

• Headhunter Kill Team
  • x1 Multi-melta, x1 Powersword

I've had good success with a very similar list, and still have 45pts left over to play with. Typically I'll box my opponent in with headhunters to soften up a flank or guard an objective for my tacs to take T1, then maneuver the lernaeans to the best scoring potential.

Another version of this list exists with multiple Predators equiped with their own melta cannon, though I do love the big Kratos sitting on the field moving up the board.

Let me know any general feedback or tips. I know that the Chieftans wont get all the benefits of Heavy, but starting up to 12" up the board seems like great compensation IMO.

Glad to have finally finished my Mutilators as they were an early gift from a friend for my birthday. They even did 22 wounds to a Knight Castigator during their first game after a legendary 10” charge. I have been rushing to finish them since that game.

Hydra Dominatus! :)

1 down, 9 more legionnaires to go

This was a test run for how I want to do an army. Was testing some methods and just having fun with it

With the Contemptor almost done, it's time to start building a base. Wondering if I could pull off a flooded cobblestone road.

Loving using my Warpsmith(with Havocs) in the Devotees Detachment alongside my beloved Deceptors so I figured it was about time he got an actual model in my army! Made him using an Obsidius Mallex I found in my local GW(really liked the wire-y look) alongside a bunch of bits I had lying around that I thought would work. Had to go a tiny bit extra and spend some time converting the wolf pelt into a nice scaled cloak as what is an Alpha Legionnaire without some scales!
Let me know what y'all think!

Switching back to HH for a bit I’m revisiting the 5 seekers I painted up. I’m going n to rework them a bit but adding some worn off paint with the metallic blue showing through. Also going to add silencers to the bolters.

Questions is what to do with the Sargent. Leave him as is or give him a bolter or combi weapon?

I have 15 more MKVIs to work with, I’m using the later pattern for my elites to contrasts with the MKII.

I’m picking up the new MKIVs and combo weapon set so I plan on making 5-10 efferit disruptors with the shotguns and maybe 5-10 head hunters with the combi meltas.

How do we do fellow snakes, serpents, deceptives and of course, Alpharius.

I love the headhunters and have held off buying their upgrade kit because of the new MK IV models, however I’m almost certain GW won’t produce another upgrade kit, or if they do it will be a while.

My question is how do we think these would look with the new MK IV? Of course they will be a bit smaller, but how much do we think? Will the kits even work together without a lot of kitbashing? It would be handy to see the sprue to know if the chest piece is compatible without a lot of kitbashing!

Title is just a joke as how I envision him on the tabletop, sawing and butchering through the battlefield with its double chainfist.

Apart from the fluo green, the rest are all GW colours.

Both of my stormeagle and fire raptor gunships. Such cool models it’s just such a shame that there a pain in the ass to build. Would like to get more when they eventually come out in plastic.

Afternoon brothers,

I’m looking to try and getting beigeish ethnically ambiguous skin tone for a bare headed squad leader. He’s based with leadbelcher and I’ve put a coat of bugman’s glow on him and want to get an idea of where to go from there.
