    Default My Sons of Horus

    Hi all

    Here is the start of my Sons of Horus force for some 30k fun



    I started these due to a little twitter initiative called #ForgeWorldOnly in which you build up a force slowly.
    It now has it own blog [url]http://forgeworldonly.blogspot.co.uk/[/url] and if you are interested you can read the "rules" over at the creators blog [URL="http://skirmishgamer.blogspot.co.uk/2012/10/forge-world-only.html?m=1"]HERE[/URL]

    Its a simple concept and will certainly help deal with FW prices well if you want it to anyway

    They look great! That green SoH color is really tricky too but you made it look good. Personally I would have gone darker with it (more black accents too) but I like the simple subtlety of yours. I am particularly impressed with those bases, they look incredibly gritty and real and they really make the models pop.

    Thank you.

    I agree darker could also work (all I would need is to use a darker grey).
    The bases are great fun mixture of cork floor boards, sheet styrene and the waste resin blocks from FW

    Ditto on what Just_Me said. Very well executed. Have you got any more pictures from lower down and different angles? What else are you adding to this force?

    Best I can do is this - [url]http://forgeworldonly.blogspot.co.uk/2012/12/sons-of-horus-terminators.html[/url]

    At the moment I am working on a Contemptor dreadnought and I have plans to use the Minotaur special character as my Legion Praetor.

    As well as the standard marines to make it a legal force

    Well it has taken a while but here is my Contemptor dreadnought.



    I have magnetised the arms as well so I can swap around within the Talon I am planning.
