Dracos Posted December 14, 2018 Share Posted December 14, 2018 I'm contemplating how to represent a Veteran Primaris in my DIY Chapter and thought a grey shield somewhere on the model would be a good way to represent a former member of the Unnumbered Sons. Anyone else given this kind of idea any thought? If so what did you decide on? I'm still working the concept but with Vigilus coming out I thought it was a timely topic.

Panzer Posted December 14, 2018 Share Posted December 14, 2018 I'd just build/paint them as general veterans. Since I'm playing a BA successor that largely follows the BA heraldry that would mean a golden helmet and since it's a homegrown successor I changed a little detail and gave them all small shoulder shields for squad markings instead of having it on the kneepads so I'd paint those gold as well. As for Indomitus Crusade specific markings ... do we have any official fluff on that? Would be nice to give them a small trinket or something like that.

Kinstryfe Posted December 15, 2018 Share Posted December 15, 2018 Many of my Lamenters Primaris have a blood angels red right shoulder pad to pay homage to their primogenitor chapter and to represent them formerly being basically "Blood Angels Greyshields" before being assigned over to the Lamenters. Those who are newer, non-veterans will have a yellow pauldron like normal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
9x19 Parabellum Posted December 15, 2018 Share Posted December 15, 2018 Similar to what SFpanzer said, I'm going to do a unit of 10 RG intercessors with white arms and helms. I might add some other minor designation to be Indomitus Crusade veterans specifically. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hellebras Posted December 15, 2018 Share Posted December 15, 2018 I'm just planning on putting together a squad of Intercessors with a bit of extra veteran bling and maybe some personalized heraldry painted on the knee-pads. Just the company's longest-serving veterans from over the past couple of centuries of war, grouped into the elite of Squad Primus under the company's senior-most sergeant.

BLACK BLΠFLY Posted December 15, 2018 Share Posted December 15, 2018 You could paint the right arm and possibly the shoulder pad grey like Deathwatch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laughingman Posted December 15, 2018 Share Posted December 15, 2018 They were described (when fighting as the unnumbered sons in Dark Imperium) as wearing a pardon with grey chevon on it along with their legion colors, How you would represent this in Veteran Intercessor is anyones guess...

Doghouse Posted December 15, 2018 Share Posted December 15, 2018 You could use the shoulder pad tilting shields, maybe have a grey chevron on it. It might be worth waiting to see how GW represents the grey shields in the new book then base it on that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
