  1. Hi All! I have not ventured into this forum much despite owning a few Inquisitors, I usually keep them more aligned with my IG collection and WIP as they generally don't have their own retinue. I had been holding out for a dedicated Custodes subforum and now with the release of the new FW Beta rules for ALL the units I've decided now is the time to start this thread. I do have a fairly reasonable collection so far, albeit mostly unpainted. I blame that on deciding to go with the Solar Watch colour scheme... The guys have sooo much detail... I do think it is worth it in the end. My hobby goals for this year are to finish some random guard projects I haven't completed and then focus on getting a painted and playable Custodes army. Some pic's of my collection so far My initial purchase I actually have Trajann at a semi decent TT quality, but apparently not uploaded any pics of him yet I've built most my bikes! Although I do have 1-2? boxes left to build since I did these... My first bike and scheme testing, Vallejo colours helped me achieve the ivory and gold I wanted The Terminators are possibly some of my most favourite models in 40k atm And this is essentially my only fully painted model in a year or so of collecting... My xmaspresent from last year Which is now doubly so thanks for FW's release today! He's already washed, ready to assemble and magnetise Over the long weekend last week I managed to build 10 Custodians to finish of my battalion requirement I already had assembled and magentised 1 box, these guys I didn't bother with Local store had a 40-50% clearance sale on GW the other week picked up some more models that I probably didn't need... Hopefully will order some of the new Venatari soon too Having finally kicked off this thread, I hope it spurs me more to finish this army sooner! And for those wondering
  2. Hey everyone, thought I'd make my first WIP thread for my Custodes to help motivate me to finish. I've decided on the Dread Host as I wanted something slightly different from the standard gold/red and also their fluff is pretty cool. Naturally the ETL has been the incentive to get this army started at last. Here is a rundown of the models: Captain-General Trajann Valoris Shield Captain in Allarus Terminator Armour w/Axe Custodian Guard Squad w/Sentinel Blade, Storm Shield & 2x Guardian Spear Custodian Guard Squad w/Sentinel Blade, Storm Shield & 2x Guardian Spear Custodian Guard Squad w/2x Sentinel Blade, Storm Shield & 2x Guardian Spear Allarus Custodians w/5x Castellan Axe Custodian Wardens w/5x Castellan Axe Vertus Praetors w/2x Salvo Launcher, Hurricane Bolter This is the basics of a 2000pt list which I'll then add to with more models to increase my options. For example I plan on raiding Forge World for some of their sweet Dreadnoughts Here is the start of the army, I hope to make some progress in the next few weeks to show.
  3. So I guess I've unofficially started these guys based purely on the novels, and the models. My hope is to flesh the army out and get some good advice on how to play them, and make them look decent. Hopefully I'll be throwing all that stuff down here in this thread to chronicle the events as I awkwardly attempt to defend the Imperium! Prot's Custodes Thread: - First up I will kick off the thread with my first troops. This is 9 dudes that I got way back in the Burning of Prospero Box. I had another set of 5 guys painted but sold them on Ebay.
  4. I am everything the Emperor dreamed Humanity could be. There is no greater blessing, and no greater burden, to be His perfection made manifest. I have no peers in the arts of war, philosophy, politics or poetry. Every fibre of my being is a tribute to His greatest works, and his vision for Mankind. I am Adeptus Custodes. I am Charlemagne Aurveskar, Prefect of the Aquillan Host. And I am His finest creation. Hi everyone, Decided to finally paint the Emperor's favourite golden boys from my BoP set. Hoping to expand out into a kill team and maybe more - just have to see if I have the patience to do all those highlights all over again.... Anyways, hope you enjoy...
  5. During the Psychic Awakening timeframe, Warhammer Community released a short story by Andy Clark titled Consequences: https://www.warhammer-community.com/2020/04/20/psychic-awakening-consequences/ Reading both the story and the community reaction to it inspired me to create a 1-page comic, which I've since updated slightly: Posting here for posterity and for hopefully the ease of searching, in case you want to forward it to your Warhammer WhatsApp groups. Thanks for reading.
  6. Greetings and good day to you all. With the Custodes releases well underway I've got some motivation to get some neglected Prospero kits out of storage, clipped and built. Started a while back with a few built and one painted before life got in the way and hobby took a back burner. So, I'll start with them and go from there. Also planning on getting a light booth so pics will improve. Have some fun home brew IC's as well planned, they'll pop up in and about whenever. Picked up a few of the first wave kits, Valoris, Allarus Terminators and Codex. Really really looking forward to next weekend, going to have to exercise restraint. For now, I have almost three guard sprues so updates should be regular. Right first up, My kit bash Ixion Hale. Who will now be standing as one of a few Shield Captains. Just some closer pics. This one was going to be my counts as Valdor, but now just a spear guard. Raise it high brother! WIP on a Vexilus Praetor (Imperius) Mostly Blu tacked at the moment. Going for standing against the wind pose. Will likely have him equipped with a storm shield. C&C welcome.
  7. Was told by a friend to move this to the army specific forums, so here we go. Very PIP, C+C welcome, was looking at doing a unique color scheme.
  8. Hello fellow genetically augmented posthuman and xenos scum. Like many are right now I'm building up a smallish force of Custodes, and am going to be needing a few character models. One is already made out of the normal kit just using the cape, but there doesn't seem to be a whole lot of ways to up-bling the already blingy Custodes, and I'll probably want a couple more just to have the options. How are people signifying who is a Shield Captain? Any advice on how to make them stand out? I hate using bare heads so want a helmet, but most ideas I'm coming up with just seem to be for a slightly different looking Custodian. Thanks for any ideas :)
  9. So I love the new Custodes Jetbikes and have just built my first one last night, but being completely honest the Custodes lance really puts me off. It got me too thinking of putting a Primaris marine on top, if possible and using them as counts as white scars jetbikes. My question really is would this work well if I fill another detachment with Primaris Scars, how well people think this army would work, and how hard the conversion would be in the first place? + Edited for tags and grammar +
  10. Hey guys, I'm just curious what you guys have been doing for the base stems on the Vertus Praetor models. As I build them I can see a potential issue for models just falling off during movement. Over time this could get worse. I really didn't think the magnet thing was going to be something I wanted to do with these, but I'm wondering what you've done, or perhaps they're fine?
  11. With another year finished and more side projects building up, I've decided to try and focus myself by showing my progress (or lack thereof) focusing on my Imperial Projects (first?) Although there will be periods of inactivity when I'm working on some of my historicals and my Death guard. I don't expect to hit all my targets, but the visible reminder they are out there should stop me from quite as many impulse purchases...

Well lets see how I get on.
  12. So with the new models for Valerian and Aleya arriving soon (February at the Weekender I believe?), what are people's thoughts on what we might expect rules-wise for each of them? 1) It seems to me that basing Valerian's statline off the Brother-Captain would make sense, but in terms of special rules? will his guardian spear just be regular, or will it be 'special' ? 2) Do people have thoughts on if Aleya should be an HQ or just a character-upgrade for a Sisters squad? 3) Do people think this is likely to tie-in to Psychic Awakening at all or remain entirely separate? (gosh if it does Sister's could do with an HQ upgrade...
  13. So Chris Wraight tweeted this fancy cover. Does anyone have any idea what it could be for, because it looks fiiiiine! EDIT: This too!
  14. We donned the black as a sign of commitment to His great work. With it, we showed all that we had set ourselves aside from all chances of glory. There was honour in that. Until the Crimson King showed the full extent of his ignorance. We stood by while our brothers fought to protect His great work, steadfast in our duty and our commitment. We wept tears of rage at the loses. For years we waited to be called to act in its defence, but never were. We stood there as the dream died. We were there when the Wolves of the Sixth sanctioned the sons of the Crimson giant. We showed them the true extant of our fury, our anger, our shame. Could we have done more? Want to use the summer holidays (joys of being a teacher) as a way of getting motivated to try and complete my Custodes army. Enter the 'Wardens of the Vaults of Rython' By the way, potential spoilers ahead (Master of Mankind). Hidden Content Doesn't seem to be a huge amount written about them. The one member written about didn't seem to have any records of him before the burning of Prospero. The fluff mentions the vaults of Rython being 'a particularly sequestered and forbidden sub-division of the deep levels of the Imperial Palace. That kinda makes me think they are something to do with the Emperor's work on the webway-his most secret project and something hidden deep down in the palace.Tried to do a little research on the word Rython and it came up with the Greek Rhyton, or ancient Greek word ῥυτόν (rhy̆tón or rhŭtón. It roughly talks about a drinking vessel/pourer. A link like this makes me think of a webway portal, especially when the Rhyton is used in ceremonies-with the establishment of the human branch of the Webway being the Emperors crowning achievement. Part of me thinks the Warders are meant to be linked to the portal entrance, but Warders also refers to guards in a prison. The webway project was so secretive that the Emperor could have set some of his Custodes to watch over those involved, to act as jailers for the technicians and the Mechanicum linked to the project. In my head that adds an extra layer to the Emperors plans that he didn't even completely trust those involved in his most secret project. The second part of the fluff about the warders mentions about how desperate things were for them to be involved. In Master of Mankind the custodes are referred to as 'the Ten Thousand'. This is pretty implicit about the number of them. Before Magnus broke through and damaged the Webway project wards there was a Custodes and Sisters of Silence presence in order to protect the Unifiers (the mechanicum involved). Then there was the incident with Magnus and daemons and stuff started attacking the Imperial presence inside the Webway and more custodes had to be drafted in-eventually whittling down the Ten Thousand to under a Thousand. This is were the Warders would come in with the whole Burning of Prospero. If they were so strapped for numbers they would have to draw them from where they could. If Prospero took place after the events of Master of Mankind then their role as watchmen over the project would have ended, thusly freeing them up for more active roles outside of the Palace. Just a few thoughts abouts them, a bit scattered and random I know.
