GrandMagnus Posted December 10, 2014 Author Share Posted December 10, 2014 Thought of a Chapter badge that resembles the Blood Angels, but is a bit more basic, which I think might work. Atleast Im keeping it in the "possibles" pack: http://i1056.photobucket.com/albums/t373/Philip_Breusch_Magnussen/Sintiacutetulo_zps72926146.png It was done on paint in less than 5 minutes, but just to give you an idea. Also, I discovered a BA succesor called the Golden Sons without any information except that they are extinct, so its a possibility.

knife&fork Posted December 10, 2014 Share Posted December 10, 2014 I like it Perhaps scale up the "blood drop" a bit so it's easier to distinguish on a small surface like a shoulder pad?

GrandMagnus Posted December 10, 2014 Author Share Posted December 10, 2014 Thats a good idea. It is kind of small compared to the "wings". I was initially thinking about adding a bird head to the "drop" turning it into an eagle, but that might be too standard.

Slips Posted December 10, 2014 Share Posted December 10, 2014 The Cog-y ness of the "wings" could lend to stronger ties with the mechanicum? Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/300160-help-with-diy-chapter/page/2/#findComment-3886027 Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrandMagnus Posted December 10, 2014 Author Share Posted December 10, 2014 The Cog-y ness of the "wings" could lend to stronger ties with the mechanicum? Thats actually something I had not considered. Hmm... The chapters has no strong ties with the mechanicum apart from the usual "give us supplies in the name of the Emperor". If anything its just a simplified version of the Blood Angels badge. If the wings where stylised, which actually wouldnt be too dificult to do, they would look too much like the BA badge, right? The personality of the chapter is very monastic and religious, on the point of fanatism, so any suggestions on how to apply that to the chapter badge? Consider they believe themselves as literal "angels" of the Emperor, not just as augmented super humans.

GrandMagnus Posted December 11, 2014 Author Share Posted December 11, 2014 Just preordered the tac. squad and a load of paints I needed. Still unsure wether they will end up as my DIY, Knights of Blood or Blood Angels. It depends on the paint tests :P Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/300160-help-with-diy-chapter/page/2/#findComment-3886490 Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrandMagnus Posted December 14, 2014 Author Share Posted December 14, 2014 Nearly done working on the chapter fluff, schemes and a few ideas for badges (just waiting for my order to arrive). But I have a question: Ive never been a big fan of the death company squads os Im wondering if it would be un-fluffy to have the chapter "execute" the brothers fallen to the black rage and therefore having no need for death companies?

Slips Posted December 14, 2014 Share Posted December 14, 2014 No problem. I'm in the other boat: I love the idea of the Death Company. if I were to make my own BA DIY, I'd have them be Venerated / seen as blessed by the Primarch or something :P Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/300160-help-with-diy-chapter/page/2/#findComment-3889981 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Teetengee Posted December 14, 2014 Share Posted December 14, 2014 I think executed them would be perfectly flufftified. Might tick off the blood angels though.

GrandMagnus Posted December 14, 2014 Author Share Posted December 14, 2014 Well, my chapter is a divergent chapter and very superstitious and suspicious of strangers. They follow some of the traditions of their parent chapter but are not exact copies. I considered that being a chapter that follows the Imperial Creed they consider the flaw as a shame that must be purged.
