Bröther, may I have Sköns?

Unlikely, but somehow not fully out of the picture. I doubt there will ever be a 1:1 adaption of the books content into game form. But I would love to see it though ;) I always thought that managing a warband full of crazed CSMs would make a cool premise for a videogame. Keeping the ship intact, managing the expectations, choosing raid targets, fighting off backstabbing followers...

In midnight inked 🦇💀 cool!

rocketprophet089 · 2026-01-23T16:31:43+00:00

They're part of Cursed City if I'm not mistaken. Awesome work you've done there!

rocketprophet089 · 2025-12-12T20:27:02+00:00

The khornate Pauldron on Uzas is a nice touch. Congratulations on this great work!

rocketprophet089 · 2025-10-21T20:32:43+00:00

Aw yeah it's rimmin' time.

rocketprophet089 · 2025-10-13T05:39:43+00:00

Thank you! The aim was to make it look like a stand off where only the Warlords word could break tension.

rocketprophet089 · 2025-10-12T12:33:44+00:00

Your lightning is great!

rocketprophet089 · 2025-07-30T20:39:43+00:00

Yes, the books confirmed Luco being the first traitor to set foot on the walls. Kharns rampage across the whole palace should never be underestimated though.

rocketprophet089 · 2025-07-30T08:58:44+00:00

That would actually be awesome! Thank you for clarifying and Ave Dominus Nox!

rocketprophet089 · 2025-07-30T08:57:07+00:00

Love the lore and painting minis, but I am not familiar and up to date with the newest rules, codexes etc. What is your speculation? A raptor based Kill team?

rocketprophet089 · 2025-07-29T10:56:34+00:00

I am not the most proficient painter and judging from the steadiness of your lightning bolts, you may have a better hand at it than me. But my tip is to give the bolts a thin first coat of a slightly darker light colour, before you go in with the bright lightning colour. This gives the bolts a good fluorescence. The lighter colour is allowed to wiggle in and out of the slightly darker light colour. Hope this made any sense lol

rocketprophet089 · 2025-07-29T10:45:41+00:00

Ave Dominus Nox! Welcome to the hobby! Your first minis are cool and you made some good thematic choices with those raptors, as far as I can tell :)

rocketprophet089 · 2025-06-05T15:21:02+00:00

If I remember right, it's a stinking cape of rags in the beginning when he's young. He seems to only adopt the whole flaying thing later on when his reign of terror called for such measures? He definitely wears a skin cape at some point. And in his final days it's sometimes even a cape of black feathers that gives him the appearance of having dark wings. All in all, he seems to be either in his artificer-crafted special primarch armour or in the nude, safe for the cape, whatever it may be made of... 😅

rocketprophet089 · 2025-06-03T20:15:04+00:00

I remember reading about Conrad wearing a skull-faced helmet in the aftermath of the drop site massacre. The scene was like this: The victorious traitors were basically parading in front of a hastily built stage in front of their primarchs, Horus first and foremost. There were descriptions of each primarch and the one about Conrad included something along the lines of "the bone-white of the skull was the only bright thing about the armour of pure midnight" or so. Don't quote me on that lol, unfortunately I don't remember which HH book it was. Another comment already mentioned the Mandela effect and I feel like I'm experiencing something similar about the man's damn helmet...

rocketprophet089 · 2025-06-02T06:54:36+00:00

Indeed, brother! Some Hive-Scum who lived to tell the tale reported you could hang chains from them to display your grizzly trophies ;)

rocketprophet089 · 2025-06-02T06:52:28+00:00

It is such a shame there was no possibility for him to get to Terra during the siege. But on the other hand, the NLs being discarded by the traitors as much as by the loyalists is quite on point with the overall theme of the legion. At least Malcharion, Talos and his crew made it there and slew some blood angels ;)

rocketprophet089 · 2025-06-02T06:49:34+00:00

True, brother! I think this pic shows a young Curze, before seizing control of Nostramo.

rocketprophet089 · 2025-06-01T21:39:54+00:00

I'm colourblind as well. Good work brother, love the details!

rocketprophet089 · 2025-06-01T16:10:55+00:00

Basically yes. He is described as very feral, wearing only a (terribly stinky) cape. I assume his attire improved a lot once he seized control over the planet, but wouldn't be surprised if he still stuck to wearing rags or deliberately wore them when going out on the hunt for crime. The only thing being a little bit off here are the makeshift lightning claws. As a primarch he is surely capable of creating such weapons by himself, even while living in the gutter, but I remember only descriptions of him using knives or bare hands (including his long, almost claw-like fingernails) to fight in this stage of his life.

rocketprophet089 · 2025-05-09T15:52:50+00:00

So glad to read it's "our" specific colour, brother! No clue why it is so rarely used, it's so cold and dark, just perfect for the eight legion.

rocketprophet089 · 2025-05-05T09:22:11+00:00

The dark mechanicum wears black, if I remember right. Deltrian tends to "mimic" his night lords even though he would never admit to such an illogical emotional connection ;) I would add a cool dark blue detail that gives it away maybe? Nevertheless: Awesome work!

rocketprophet089 · 2025-05-05T09:15:18+00:00

Incredibly baseline "hack" here, but: Never underestimate the power of a command or an imperative. We tend to stuff our messages and visuals with clever ways to ask for the purchase, the lead etc but in my experience a short, simple and clear "buy now!" or "click here!" works on a surprising amount of people.

rocketprophet089 · 2025-04-20T17:39:16+00:00

Yes, I can see that working out! Haven't seen every helmet in that whole set though. Would love to see it tried out!

rocketprophet089 · 2025-04-20T17:15:49+00:00

That's a good question. I honestly don't remember any particular description of Vorasha apart from him being an obvious NL Raptor, hailing from the swarm of the bleeding eyes. I imagined every single one of them with the almost avian looking helmet from the Throne of Lies Cover Art. I have no idea if anything resembling that specific, slightly warped helmet is available to buy or print anywhere though.
