Hi,

Here are the first elements of my new PH Word Bearers army.

 

Comments/feedback very welcome.

I agree, that is a nice looking gray, but I especially like the amount of text you have on the models, it seems to separate them from average gray marines. The terminator looks good on the top hatch too, not too bulky to seem unbelievable, but bulky enough to separate the conversion from a regular power armored model. Keep up the good work!
I like the occasional use of GK parts in an army where it's fluffy, but just using GK termies strait out of the box is a big no-no for PH armies in my opinion.

 

I understand the concern, and I was a bit hesitant to begin with, but after filing off all the GK/Inquisition iconography (and converting the shoulder icon into the WB burning book with some green stuff) I really thought they looked the part - especially with all the scrolls/scraps of paper/purity seals as well as having the armour engraved with text as the Word bearers are meant to.

 

I suppose just down to taste in the end.

Yeah I suppose so. The only bits I didn't like were the wrist-monted storm bolter (iconic GK) and psychic hood (non-psycher but other wise impossible to make the chest look so good). The halberd would be cool if you could incorperate it some how.
