Dam13n Posted March 8, 2012 Share Posted March 8, 2012 Well I did this a while back for a local GW painting comp (best vehicle) http://i352.photobucket.com/albums/r358/MatthewDaunt/WordBearersDreadnought01.jpg http://i352.photobucket.com/albums/r358/MatthewDaunt/WordBearersDreadnought09.jpg http://i352.photobucket.com/albums/r358/MatthewDaunt/WordBearersDreadnought08.jpg http://i352.photobucket.com/albums/r358/MatthewDaunt/WordBearersDreadnought07.jpg http://i352.photobucket.com/albums/r358/MatthewDaunt/WordBearersDreadnought06.jpg 1 pre-heresy word bearer dreadnought. I didn't go into the engraved text as I didn't think I'd pull it off too well at the time. I personally love the idea of doing a pre-heresy Thousand Sons force using C:GK or World Eaters using C:SW. Though all that red or white might put me off after a while. Laterz... Edit - managed to find more pics, though some are unfinished - the SETMM was corrected on a number of areas prior to me entering the competition.

Coryphaus 101 Posted March 9, 2012 Share Posted March 9, 2012 I think a whole army of really well done pre-heresy Word Bearers would be awesome. Not a flashy and fancy Thousand Sons army could compare to an army of granite grey clad warriors, covered in engraved text and purity seals. Just searched the net for pre heresy word bearers and this came up in images: http://i41.photobucket.com/albums/e296/evilamericorp/HDR/WordBearers.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/248058-most-interesting-traitor-legion-to-see-modeled-pre-heresy/page/2/#findComment-3011286 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Black Mage 257 Posted March 9, 2012 Share Posted March 9, 2012 I always loved Pre-Heresy Death Guard, a guy at my local did a Pre-Heresy Contemptor Dreadnought in that scheme and it's one of the best models I've ever seen. I'll see if I can get the picture when I get home from work. I think Word Bearers are very under-rated when it comes to Pre-Heresy, everyone tends to lean towards World Eaters and Thousand Sons as the most interesting ones, but I personally think that Word Bearers, Death Guard and Iron Warriors could easily be some of the most interesting.

The_son_of_Dorn Posted March 9, 2012 Share Posted March 9, 2012 And that right there is the reason why you dont give Iova's witnesses access to gene seed and heavy weaponry...........you try closing the door on a terminator of GOD!

Praetor of Calth Posted March 9, 2012 Share Posted March 9, 2012 I would like to see a Pre-Heresy Luna Wolves army! One of my most favoured colour schemes and I really like their iconography and seeing Horus in all his loyalist glory.

Am really tempted to start a new marine force from the ground up entirly in a mix of MKII,III IV and VI plate, but can't afford it B) The most I am proberbly ever to do is a squad and a charecter.. not sure which legion, proberbly Salamanders.

All your pre-heresy stuff is top notch, love it. Now I expect to see a whole army of those World Eaters.

Rune Priest Ridcully Posted March 15, 2012 Share Posted March 15, 2012 I am thinking of possibly starting a small pre heresy/heresy era Salamanders force, entirely mounted in drop pods or speeders, as it would be different to my what I collect at the moment and I figure a force entirely in either Mk II, IV and VI armour could be quite impressive looking, but I am not sure which armour mark would be the best to have the majority in, any suggestions or should I have them entirely in one mark? Also any ideas to represent their craftmenship in the models?

Sun Reaver Posted March 20, 2012 Share Posted March 20, 2012 The pictures of those wonderful Luna Wolves and World Eaters has made me want to start on an army of my own really badly. I want to do Alpha Legion but I feel it would look a bit boring as they go through great pains to ensure they all look the same. My second choice is Blood Angels as I don't ever see those armies around and the new plastics would give it a lot of flavor.
