Alternative DC models

Hello brothers,

 

As most of my ASM is based from DC box, and only thing that distinguish my DC from ASM is the black armor ... I was thinking about remanking them or just adding another 7 as atm I have 7 bolter/PW/PF ones/

 

I was thinking about these models:

I know they need some emperors touch as they are quite a bit too much chaotic, however do you think they might fit into DC thematic?

Moreover, is there any DC specific iconography to bare in mind, moreover to do something for the flag?

 

THank you,

~BT

Love those models, including the command squad if you want some more subtle DC members with axes.

 

Definitely ditch the eye and clean up the spikey edging a little, but don't distract too much from the models  - last one I saw that did that seemed to have taken away the personality of the armour angles.

 

Shoulder pads for DC.. don't forget the ones specifically with the big red cross, that's the key icon !  You could also consider the skulled pads from FW too.  But then - the only real downside is a 'counts as' for those chain axes.

Sorry dont have my BRB near, what is the downside with the chain axes, do they get same I "buff" as power axe weapons?

 

On the other hand I plan to do some GSing as there is lot of chaos iconography, not sure about using DC shoulder pads as they might not fit to that armor type, pehaps just cleaning them and than paining with DC icnography.

 

Lastly, fluff wise, I am just not sure, that DC marines would be allowed to go into DC in that  "anciet" 30k armor type. Any toughts?
