It's finally time to start a thread here in B&C too, brethren. My loyalist splinter of XIV Legio Astartes, known as the Echoes of Eisenstein, is a labour of love that has now taken three years and lost all brakes a while back. When I got hold of my first Betrayal at Calth set, the path to damnation was set and I knew I had to go and start a whole army of truescaled marines. There would be no respite. There would be no models left unconverted. There would be only chopping and the laughter of ever growing mountains of grey soldiers waiting for their day.

So, welcome to gawk at my insanity where I'll ever so slowly go through the same process with the rest of the 150+ guys I have either unbuilt or unstripped from previous owners of 5 boxes of Calth and Prospero, scratch tanks from busted Rhino carcasses, learn how to paint through my irrational biases ("dang my steel just looks bad in true metal but brass and copper, yaaaas queen!") and occasionally create piles of terrain out of ice cream boxes and my significant other's diabetes waste.

Hi, does anybody know how many Cataphractii/Indomitus shoulder pad arms are in the Blight Lord kit? Are there enough to give them all Cataphractii, for example, instead of the mix? Or at least enough to have some with both Cata and some with both Indom? I can't stand the odd mix haha. Also, if there's not enough, does anybody know if there are any decent 3D printed replacement bits to use with the Blight Lord kits?

Dune Serpents - XIV The Envenomed Hunters http://i284.photobucket.com/albums/ll24/demarcs/f9569692-7595-4f83-8116-d141f8447dae_zpshdvreyh9.png http://images.dakkadakka.com/gallery/2016/3/28/788744_md-.JPG They are a dark, terrifying Legion. Barely human at all. They view honour and bravery and kindness as diseases, to be excised from themselves and exploited in others. And they will stop at nothing to get what they want. –Diary entry of [REDACTED], Remembrancer attached to the 412th Expeditionary Fleet Numeration: XIVth Legion Primogenitor: Azus Bahmut Allegiance: Fedelitas Scindere Cognomen (Prior): Sightless Fourteenth. Observed Strategic Tendencies: Stealth Operations, Guerrilla Warfare, Terror Tactics, Use of Chemical Weaponry Noteworthy Domains: Dhul’Hasa and its orbiting space stations. The Emperor’s Fourteenth were often known as an honourless Legion. Of all that was whispered of them, that much, at least, was true. Operating from the shadows, striking only where they knew they could win, and fleeing before the enemy had a chance to strike back, the Dune Serpents’ way of war was described by their Primarch as ‘practical and practical alone, for war’s purpose is to yield results no matter the means’. If others had viewed the Fourteenth Legion as unpleasant and without boundaries during the Great Crusade, the Icarion Insurrection would escalate these views tenfold. The Legion splintered after news of the Stormlord’s betrayal, with nearing 40% of the Serpents casting off their Imperial colours and joining forces with the Insurrectionists, or simply making their own way in a galaxy of war. Their Primarch, however, stayed loyal to the Imperium, though whether out of respect for the Emperor or simply a need to survive is to this day murky. The Dune Serpents exemplify the belief of some that, to wage war against monsters, one must become a monster oneself.
