Hey all:
I'm wanting to build some veterans for my blood angels and am thinking of doing a greek theme. I'm trying to decide which "greek themed" helms to buy and hoping people can throw some photos of their models up to help me decide. I've looked at the Chapterhouse and the helms from Anvil Industries but any pics would be nice.
Thanks

If you hang on a bit, forgeworld might bring out the basic marine conversion for these bad boys (http://www.forgeworld.co.uk/New_Stuff/ASTERION_MOLOC_AND_IVANUS_ENKOMI_OF_THE_MINOTAURS. html)

ooh, just remembered these guys, you can just stick these straight on standard marines (I assume)

See My Spartan Greeks fully painted with hand painted shields in the Historical section on this forum, for ideas on Spartan Helms :)

Those greeks look awesome Dad, I really like the feel of marines looking like your hoplites also do you have outdoor gaming table? That's brilliant!
And Tsini thanks for the secret weapons link, I didn't even think to check them out. Good idea as well to wait and see if forgeworld comes out with anything.

I made the horse hair crests for my Greek themed Marines from scratch using plastic card and rod. Check out the drivers on these Land Speeders.
