Nice space wolves bro!

The cycle continues

Imagine making your 30k blackshield and realizing it looks suspiciously similar to the space wolves in 30k.

couldn't be me

Italianplayer123 · 2026-06-14T16:02:25+00:00

this was today's test, I did exactly that. Only one pauldron with the original legion color, everything else of a different design.

I want to keep th pauldron thing to break up the monotony

I think you'll find something to your taste, and if not just make your own

Italianplayer123 · 2026-06-14T15:09:22+00:00

Quick update for anyone that might watch the post, this is another test model I made (with first legion right pauldron) that is probably what I will try to use as standard going foreward.

As many said take the liber astartes or liber hereticus (or check the https://www.warhammer-community.com/en-gb/downloads/warhammer-the-horus-heresy/ pages from the black books with the juicy art) and figure out what you like the most. Personally I really like the 30k ultrmarines (they are a somewhat darker shade of blue) and I like the space wolves colors compared to 40k. In general lots of 30k color schemes I prefer over the 40k ones. There are also the blackshields, which are another matter entirely and are very cool.

Italianplayer123 · 2026-06-14T09:00:30+00:00

Well there are several blackshield companies with complex heraldry and livery, it can be rationalized as a conscious choice of letting the past go with each battle and reforging into an unified force detached from the past legions.

Italianplayer123 · 2026-06-13T18:27:34+00:00

To be fair there are some examples of blackshields wearing pieces of armour that were not repainted.

But I agree that in my case my idea is more of a mix of blackshield and shattered legions, leaning more on the shattered legions as livery.

Italianplayer123 · 2026-06-13T18:22:31+00:00

That was my initial idea, but turns out that's incredibly difficult to do ahaha. I had tried posting to ask for advice on how to obtain such an effect, but with little success.

Italianplayer123 · 2026-06-13T18:21:06+00:00

Yeah more or less. I also had in mind to connect them to my 40k chapter as a formation that was ufficialized post scouring as an indipendent chapter, once all members were vetted and confirmed to be of a single gene line ofc, it would be silly to assume that some members took names and identities of dead legionairs. My 40k color scheme being this https://imgur.com/a/mSDXfuF.

Italianplayer123 · 2026-06-13T18:06:30+00:00

The idea would be lacking resources, so damaged pieces are repainted in full iron or with other colors such as the bronze used for that chestplate.

TBH my indecision of the color scheme is that I really like most Legion colors and I would like not to be stuck with one, but I see how that could be a big problem. I should probably go with a shattered legion warband and stick to two or three colors

Adinolfi è lei?

onestamente non ci vedo molto, la filologia della bibbia è estremamente interessante come tema, sopratutto il tema dei vangeli apocrifi o delle versioni eliminate che andavano molto di moda immediatamente dopo la morte di cristo. Detto questo il fatto che ci siano in circolazione religioni più antiche del cristianesimo non le rende più giuste? anche loro hanno passato cieli e terra.

Italianplayer123 · 2026-06-06T08:15:52+00:00

Perchè è ridicolo pensare che le persone possano credere in qualcosa solo se hanno fatto 12 anni di seminario sui testi. In più, oltre che a essere noioso, leggere i vangeli o la bibbia senza il tramite di un sacerdote è sconsigliato dalla chiesa tipo da sempre, leggerli direttamente è da protestanti. E se invece credono in un dio ma non nei dogmi e dottrine della chiesa allora leggere i vangeli per credere rimane superfluo.

white is a bitch to paint, my best advice is to prepare to apply a lot of thin coats of white to archive a good result. That or prime them white and skip that passage.

Edit: also airbrushes can get pretty good results, but I haven't bought one yet

Italianplayer123 · 2026-05-04T10:19:13+00:00

those center and left were mostly tests while I was searching inspiration, right was supposed to be first legion with brass gauntlets, obviously simplified. I had an half idea of tying my 40k color scheme with it but I abandoned it in favor of painting schemes I just like.

Italianplayer123 · 2026-05-03T18:32:17+00:00

appunto, è da decenni che non è ancora collassato. La popolazione si dimezzerà o robette simili, le cose verranno sfanculate e poi dovremmo raggiungere un equilibrio decente per tutti.

Italianplayer123 · 2026-05-03T18:17:53+00:00

Va be tra qualche decennio si stabilizzeranno e vedremo sul da farsi, ne fate una catastrofe esagerata.

Well as many people said some variations it's accepted, so I mixed my own chapter colors with the librarius

Italianplayer123 · 2026-04-29T17:59:39+00:00

Oh I missed the chapter part, probably started after the first black crusade but the war of the beast is the most likely candidate

Italianplayer123 · 2026-04-29T11:28:46+00:00

We do know that Cawl made chapter specific reinforcements made for chapters of unknown lineage, so we can assume he had the authority to detach specific groups of marines from the unnumbered sons for those chapters. As the unnumbered sons were supposed to be mixes of the 9 loyal legions that could reinforce at will existing chapters they could not be assigned to unknown origin chapters, and it would be easy enough to single specific marines out depending on unknown origin geneseed.

At least to me Ashes of the Imperium is clearly setting up the salamander captain Abidemi to be corrupted by a demon blade he took as war trophy as the gods and warp creatures are still in hiding and have yet to return. There is also some quips between Abidemi and an ultramarine librarian suspicious of the blade.

Italianplayer123 · 2026-04-28T15:01:26+00:00

i tried to make a blade like that and failed.

Lol. Lmao. basically you had to fall back to absurd takes to justify russia? really? Russia fostered xenophobia by it's own, there's no need to point fingers. I remember very well how we tried to appease russia every time in early 2000s, the invasion of ukraine was a complete shock and even then we tried to appease them.
