GW had a long history of codexing units it then didn't produce models for. "Codexing" - so totes a wurd.
I've built a squad of jump 'zerkers.
Lined up on the Brick of Scrutiny: Anvil and GW bits.

So, then tossing some ideas around for actually painting them - here's my quandary:
- Classic mostly bright red with metallic detailing (like other 'Zerkers)
- Brass (a bit like Minotaurs) A sort of Khornate Elite [Sanguinary] Guard
- Black with red crosses on their shoulders and legs
I'm thinking of a sort of Sanguinary Guard. Once they're painted, they will be virtually indistinguishable from blood for the blood god angels anyway. But I am open to other suggestions.
Blood for the blood Emperor an' all that.
And because they're wearing jump packs, they can be artfully arranged like a flower. It's not all blood and death then. Oh, wait...
Not all Berzerkers are World Eaters. I painted up a squad of Berzerkers in Night Lord colours.
ReplyDeleteYour Berzerkers could always be a squad of corrupted Blood Angels who have finally given into the Blood God and gone renegade.
They look pretty sweet. I think going for the bronze would be cool to distinguish them and running them as raptors.
ReplyDeleteEaster Marines - make them pink like the Easter Bunnies cos they've got the silly helmet ears for the job. (Might need fluffy cotton tails too...)
ReplyDeleteThanks for this post, funniest thing I have read all day (it's been a bleak kind of day).
ReplyDeleteI am particularly fond of the Brick of Scrutiny, it's title suggests that much heavy pondering occurs in it's presence.
I think brass or bronze would look good. I like the idea of sort of mirroring the Sangiunary guard.
ReplyDeleteThank you gentlemen. Brassy brass it will be...
