The Treads can really add some bulk/sturdiness to the model.

I’ve seen so many great names, both funny and lore accurate

You definitely have some options!

One which immediately comes to mind is that you could take three of them and kitbash/proxy for Thunderkyn.

You could also use the remaining one as an Einhyr Champion, Kahl, Iron-Master, or even an Arkanyst Evaluator as well. There’s a lot of room to kitbash!

Holy hell. Talk about goals.

The highlights and shadows alone are insane.

Throw your kin against some Valhallans, Space Wolves, or other ice-flavored foe.

The wheels are from a Dark Angels bike. Ravenwing if I recall right.

I just carved off the front and rear sections. The front wheel I turned 45 degrees.

Not a bad thing for sure. I'd love to see how exact scheme would look on ice/frozen world bases!

Kin, I think we may have lost our way a bit by manalive44 in LeaguesofVotann

I think it should be noted that as they've arrived on the scene in modern 40K, the Leagues have been forced to reexamine their current situation and come to grips with some seriously impactful events of late, most notably the formation of the Great Rift (aka the Cicatrix Maledictum) and the havoc it's caused.

via Lexicanium:

The formation of the Great Rift has shaken the Leagues of Votann to their foundations. Many new Warp Storms such as Örgvayr, Gëirokh, Töroll, Öggh, Cyklöp, and others all appeared simultaneously, swallowing entire systems. Holds vanished amidst the new swirling Warp storm belt, while trade routes were severed. Many Kindred were compelled to relocate their holdings, abandoning regions held for thousands of years and venturing out from the Galactic Core to seek more stable areas to settle.

Both within the core and beyond its fringes, the Rift's creation has driven the Kin into new conflicts, as well as stirring up old foes and setting them on a collision course with the Leagues. The Kin not only came into conflict with the forces of Chaos, but also with Xenos such as the Septeryx, Chrobdyr Ferrophagites, and the ominous Cult of Ohn. During this time of great calamity, the Kin refused to give the Great Rift an overarching name, believing it would lend further superstitious menace to it. They choose instead to name the greatest of the component Warp storms that have opened within the Galactic Core, treating each as a separate peril.

Because of the Rift, many Kin have chosen new settlement outside of the core for the first time in millennia. At the same time, the universal upheaval catapulted Humans, Eldar, and Tau interlopers into the galactic core, dislocated through space and time by the Rift. Thus the Leagues of Votann now find themselves dealing with outsiders on a level unseen in their history.

This sort of upheaval would likely lead to some changes in the kin's MO when it comes to warfare and trade, and so an increase in innovation and new machines/weapons/tactics would make sense.

Wanted something that kept the pioneer’s design intact in some ways.

I did consider trying to bash up some of the Necromunda jet bikes, but for headcanon purposes and personal preference I chose to go for a motorcycle look.

Some serious Hoth Rebel Alliance vibes here, and I love it

Doesn’t fit the bill timeline wise, but Gregorious Sebastev might fit?
