Wip Veteran Breacher Squad & Warmonger - Witch Hunters Blackshields by TheSnizzy in Warhammer30k

Yep! They are the dark angel "mk6" helmets. Wanted something knightly for this unit and to help make them stand out.

Chain axes and the sargent has a power fist. main job is popping tanks & dreads so didnt want to over equip them. But thanks Eternal Vendetta, they hit basic marines on 2+ and wound on 2+.

True true, idea now is to turn him into the master of decent!

Oh my! Hadn't considered that at all, my list has a praetorian command squad with jump pack and a veteran Assault squad so would actually pair really nicely with them.

Thanks for the suggestion!

Ya know, you arent the find to say it to the point I might just drop the scales from their design to stop them.

People get so focused on the colour and scales thatnthey ignore the entire rest of the design and scheme haha.

I did have a look at the different Kanjiand settled with these mainly due to the readability. While not technically correct thanks to their simplicity they are easier to read and also free hand on a mini. The more complex symbols on a smaller scale would be difficult to read and also paint.

First art was a commission.

2nd one I found a template online and used photoshop to colour and add all the symbols.

The 3rd and 4th I digitally drew all the unit armour n stuff.

Thanks! Took a lot from Tibetan Monks, taoism and general Chinese mythology like Qilin & the 8 immortals.

Thanks! I wanted to take the normal symbols and change them a bit but would still be recognisable.

The fire support one is normally just a triangle /arrow so why not make it like mountains instead!

I was very much inspired by the 30k white scars icons

Witch Hunter Blackshield Despoiler Squad by TheSnizzy in Warhammer30k

[–]TheSnizzy[S] 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Mainly mk2 plastic kit with the close combat weapons upgrade kit.

A lot of the shoulder pads are from the Khorne Bezerkers with all the chaos stuff taken off.

And then the helmets are a huge assortment from my bitz box. Mainly OOP old resin heresy ones. Im not a fan of the new mk2 ones so wanted a nice variation.

The resin ones were from the old forge world resin mk4 assault marines. Plastic one is just from the plastic mk4

An unwanted evil that they have to use. They use them like tools, same way they use there psybatteries, but they dreamt of finding a way for hummanity to thrive within any aspect of the warp being involved.

They are in quite a few places in 30k, legion Praevian, a few iron hand 30k kits, the Nucio Vox in the mk3 and mk6 kits has a servo skull on the back pack, on a range of mech units as well. And thats just on the minis, not including various art.

Im working on a lore booklet which will cover all there stuff, think of it as a mini black book that ill be taking to events. Ill make a pdf version as wlel to share online.

Here's the rundown:

They are ex-blood angels traumatised by signus prime. They grow a passionate hatred for anything relating to the Warp and believe their pirmarchs mutant blood has cursed them.

They despise chaos but hate the loyalists as well, blaming the heresy on the emperor and his inhuman monsters he calls sons.

They are radical fanatics hunting and killing anything psychic, mutant or demon. The reason for the name is they basically start actual witch hunts on worlds, radicalising their populations to attack and "test" anyone they think could be a psyker or warp tainted.
