A Different Custodes Look

Warhammer 40,000 – Purple and gold just look good together, I was very happy that this Adeptus Custodes project uses a different color scheme than the traditional gold, red and black. I’m just getting back to a regular 40K rotation so I’m not sure what the sudden interest in Custodes is all about but this force is so nice looking that I’m tempted to look at building a similar force. (Probably won’t but who knows)

Warhammer 40,000 – There's gold in them thar .... Well something like that. I'm working on a large force of Sisters of Silence paired with Adeptus Custodes for a client. This is an army that is almost completely gold with some red highlights. It took me two solid nights to get all the models assembled (minus the magnets for the Dreadnoughts which are to come.) It's been a little while since I had a full army build from the ground up for a completely new army. The sprues for these two armies are identical to the ones that comes in the Burning of Properso box game, so the force really consists of 5 sculpts of each model with variations on weapons. With the Custodes you can swap around the arms to get some variation but the sisters are really just mono-pose with different weapons.
