Legio Custodes Army (Picture Heavy)

[VAGABOND8]

First post and thought I'd share my Legio Custodes with you all, been working on these guys since December and finished them last week. There loads more photos but I can only upload 4 at a time so I will add another reply with more.

All 3,500 points worth of Grey Knights! :)

Great work! I especially like the spear the wielded by the Dreadknight.

:eek: I so want to play against this army...it's so shiny.

[Meph]

Ow yeah, good stuff, good stuff. :D

[celestialatc]

That army is just....epic.....I hope you do some battle reports with them, so we can see them in action!

[FTE-Charge!!!]

Very nice looking!

A few questions: How do you use this army? From the large bases I am guessing that it is a Paladin army?

You made a good amount of heavy support choices- are these just for variety or do you proxy and count as stuff as to use the whole collection?

Great work!

those look awesome id love to see a closer shot of a couple of your squads. I very nearly tried to made one of these even making two or three conversion peices to see how they would look before i got sidetracked. Im glad someone else actualy did it and did a great job of it as well i love how you did the heavy weapons. I was thinking purifiers when i made mine what are you going to play them as?

[sangrail777]

Those look great, really like the Knights. Looks like you used Scibors' Heads right and a few shoulder pads?

[VAGABOND8]

I run this army as Draigowing and have great success with it so far. I bought the Dreadknight models and used them in a few games but didn't like then abd they were dying very early on and not really making their points back.

I swapped them for Psyfleman Dreadnoughts, Vindicare Assassin and a Techmarine. I've been doing well with these guys and currently on a 16 game win streak ans they seem to kicking the crap out of local gamers in my local GW.

I played against a Space Wolves player earlier on with 6 Thunderwolf Cavalry, 2 Long Wang Squads, 3 Plasma Dreads and Plasma Bjorn. I won 7-1 on KP.

I'd love to do some battle reports against some good player and see how things went.

gold is a difficult colour to bring off without looking ..well just flat gold you've managed to carry it off rather well :D

[Denzark]

My main opponent is in gold armour. Of course I have nick-named them - 'The Golden Shower'.

[VAGABOND8]

The Gold armour was one of the main concerns I had about getting it right, I also run an all Sanguinary Guard army and used the same recipe as that but with a few tweaks.

I think the gold has came out pretty well and the highlighting makes it stand out more.

If anyone wants to view closeups of the army then PM me. :)

I recorded this earlier today to share with you guys and show you more of the army.

I am Scottish so I'll understand if you can't make out the accent. :)

[Bionicknees]

Wow! Fantastic looking army, Ive always wanted to do these but you have pulled it off completely
