I will keep the talking short and pictures at Max.
Quick backstory is simple. They are a late Heresy Era Sons of Horus force. Taking place right after the fall of Horus.
I bring you my Legion Praetor, (also counts as Fabius Bile in regular 40k games)
He needs a bit more work around the servo skull (needs cables) and the 2 demon helpers need tools. Otherwise hes good to go. Does anything look "off"?

Still a bit of a WIP but here is the Standard Bearer and right hand man for the Praetor. He will get a shoulder pad on his right arm to match the Praetors. The left pad is a filed down astral claws pad that will be a large eye of Horus.
Oh and for the base, I will do all the armies bases at once. Gives them a very uniform look.

This is the overall Terminator style im going with for the army. I like the Cat terminators but dont like the slightly better save. Id rather be quick on the feet so these were born.

Not sure about the mutated power claw on the terminator, but otherwise a stunning set of conversions. I love the idea of the Praetor having little deamon helpers. very much looking forward to seeing how the rest of the army comes together.

I wasnt sold on it either. Ive since changed it to be the old 2nd edition chaos marine power fist/claw. Ive also added trophies and more detail on the grenade harness.
Thanks for all the support guys!
I was digging around my bits stores inventory for what I need to make the first 3 Breachers. I plan to include 2 ten man units, each with 2 grav guns.
These first 3 show the modified shield designs and the studded mk2 shoulder pad, similar to the studded mk4 pads. Those gave me the idea for a more heavy armor mk2 but not quite mk3.

I went ahead and decided to include a Siege Breaker as my Lt in the army. Seems fitting since the vast troops choice will be filled with Breachers.
I went rather heavy on the conversion, using tiny bits from several FW kits. It took me a bit of time to remove the bits used from my bits store but it was well worth it based on how sweet the conversion came out!

http://i1302.photobucket.com/albums/ag126/resinforge/seigebreaker1.jpg
With his Wrecker and Tank hunter special rules, I built 2 semi unique weapons. A "Chain Claw" basically a lightning claw with Wrecker and a modified combi bolter with more detailed Melta for the Tank Hunter ability. I still need to add some antenna to represent his Vox.

I do plan to add weather pigments and other goodies but not until the army is painted to an equal level. Its the only real way to get the same results with weathering on them all.
Im always open to feedback and comments!

Almost done with the Siege Breaker. He still needs a few minor touch ups and tuft grass added to the base. other then that, hes good to go.

Teal to me is a tad to "off" from the colors described in the Betrayal book. The pictures arent the best but I think it first the early sea green perfectly. My guys arent full blow siege of Terra, just on thier way to corruption. :)
On a side note, Resin Forge (link in sig) is now offering 20% off all FW bits, some GW weapons and now spreading into books, such as rulebooks, HH book Volume 1 and much more!

Thanks again for all the support and comments! Its whats keeping me motivated with updates all the time!
Next up is the 2nd Apothecary. hes made from more bits then I can count but if anyone is interested, I can break it down bit by bit if anyone wants to recreate it.
I wanted to show mutations begining as well as the fact he is still an Apothecary. I think the cloak and backpack really sell it.

Bases need a bit more work but it gives you all an idea how the army itself will be based. These first 10 are for the siege breachers.

Speaking of the Breachers, I did more work on the vox guy as well as work on a soon to be better conversion for a lascutter.

Very nice. The bases look like they'll be quite cool once painted up. Both conversions look great too, though surely that is more of a Plas-cutter?

Sadly Breacher squads cant get plasma cutters so ill mod it and remove the coils to make it a fancy las cutter as I hate the boarding party one :)

Update time!
There have been tons of requests on how people can make the 'Fabius' counts as. Well here you all go:
http://i1302.photobucket.com/albums/ag126/resinforge/countsas_fabius1.jpg
Hello everyone! Resin Forge here with the start of a series of guest posts., starting with a counts as 'Fabius Bile' for a Sons of Horus Heresy Era army. Before we begin, yes, the actual Fabius Bile was a member of the Emperor's Children but please keep in mind this is simply a character recreation set in the Horus Heresy time period, not an actual recreation of him during that period (although with shoulder pad swaps it could count as him very easily)
Lets jump right into what bits the conversion is made up of.
Head:
Right side - FW Mk2 Tank Commander head
Left side - FW Mk2 Apothecary head with the lens intact.
GS studs to connect the lens portion of the helmet.
FW Inquisitor Iron Halo
FW Inquisitor Lok Servo Skull Scribe Arms
Torso:
FW Red Scorpion Magister Loth Honor Guard Torso
FW Apothecary Vial attached
FW Mk2 Backpack Fan Vent
Belt:
FW Plague marine shoulder pad decaying head
FW Inquisitor Solomon Lok Data Servitor back module
GS Cables
Backpack:
FW Astral Claws Valthex Techmarine Backpack
FW Mk2 Apothecary Backpack Vials
Plastic Imperial Guard Servo Skull Half Halo
Mk2 Backpack Bottom Side Vents
Pewter Fabius Bile Backpack Mechanical Arms
Plastic Imperial Guard Vox Speaker
Finecast Dark Eldar Haemonculus IV Bag
Right Arm:
Mk2 Apothecary Arm
Mk2 Closed Assault Hand
Finecast Thunder Cannon Techmarine Staff
Finecast Thunder Cannon Techmarine Plasma Cutter
Pewter Inquisitor Servo Skull
Black Legion Pewter Shoulder Pad
Left Arm:
Mk4 Apothecary Arm
Mk4 Bolt Pistol
Finecast Thunder Cannon Techmarine Backpack Sensor
FW Inquisitor Solomon Lok Data Servitor cable connector
Black Legion Pewter Shoulder Pad
Legs:
Pewter Iron Hands Bionic Legs
Base:
FW Angron Fallen Marine 40mm Base
2 Pewter Warhammer Fantasy Familiars
Plastic Imperial Guard Servo Skull
FW Titan Tech Priest Mechanical Servo Arm
FW Flamer Tank
FW Magister Loth Honor Guard Helmet
Where to begin..... I suppose its best to start in the same order as the parts are listed above.
1) The head is a combo of the 2 halves from the Mk2 Tank Commander head and the Mk2 Apothecary Heads with the Iron Halo attached to the back of it. The brown lens was added based on plastic rivets. The Lok Servo skull Scribe arms are attached to the lower half of the helmet before its glued on.
2) The torso is almost entirely based around the Loth Honor Guard torso with the Red Scorpion icon shaved off and replaced with the vent fan from a Mk2 backpack. The vial from the Apothecary set was then mounted on the right side of the breast, on top of a GS mount.
3) The belt items were taken from 2 bits. The first being a severed, decaying head taken from one of the FW Plague Marine shoulder pads and the second, coming from the Inquisitor Lok Data Servitors back module. It was carefully cut off and trimmed down to be a sort of scanning device.
4) The backpack is built around the Astral Claws Valthex Techmarine pack. The side mounts are cut down and replaced with the pewter Cogs that become the mounting for the Fabius Bile Mechanical arms. On the top, on both sides above the cogs and mechanical arms the small Mk2 backpack lower vents are added. The Mk2 Apothecary backpack vials are then mounted on the center with the plastic servo skull half halo cut and removed to be mounted onto them. Finally a single plastic brown rivet was added as a lens for the skull, creating a mini servo skull. On the rear of the backpack, the cut down Imperial Guard Vox Speaker was then mounted in the center with the Finecast Dark Eldar Haemonculus IV Bag mounted alongside of it with the hose connecting to the bottom of the speaker.
5) The right arm is built around the Mk2 Apothecary arm. Before anything was done the hand was removed and the shoulder mount was cut off to change the position of the arm. Once the arm was reglued to the shoulder, the Mk2 closed hand was then drilled out to allow the staff to fit in its grip. It was then mounted onto the arm. The staff itself is made up of the lower half of the techmarine staff with the plasma cutter barrel cut off and glued just above the hand. I did pin all of this to make to stable. The pewter servo skull was trimmed down to then fit on top of the plasma cutter barrel and coolant ribs. Once this was all done the shoulder pad was added.
6) The left arm is a bit easier then the right. Its almost entirely the Mk4 Apothecary arm. Only the hand was removed, a bolt pistol from the Mk4 Assault set was added. The front half of the bolt pistol was first cut off and the finecast techmarine sensor was added in its place. The small tip was cut off and replaced by the small data servitor cable connector to make a sort of needle launcher. Finally the shoulder pad was added.
7) The legs are simply the pewter Iron Hand legs with a slight bend to make them fit onto the fallen marine base. A single GS cable was added to make both sides look similar.
8) The base is from the Primarch Angron. The floating Servo skull is a cut down plastic Imperial guard on with a Titan Tech Priest small servo arm added so it could be picking the geneseed from the corpse. A Magister Loth honor guard helmet was added to spice it up. The 2 familiars are simply picked from the Warhammer Fantasy Familiar blister. Slight reposing was done on the familiar in the front to be standing on the fallen marine. Finally 'Fabius' was pinned in place so that he could be stable and yet be removed for painting.
That's how he was created! If anyone has any questions at all, please do ask and ill be more then happy to help explain it better. This is my first tutorial so please forgive me if anything is confusing. And now with Bitzbox and Resin Forge teaming up, all of this conversion and future conversions can easily be built by you, the readers! Stay classey everyone and remember, support for your bitz suppliers means support for amazing conversions!

Sons of Horus Consul Moritat.
http://i1302.photobucket.com/albums/ag126/resinforge/moritat_comp1.jpg
I made up the whole techmarine style within the legion as a sort of "pre obliterator idea" In this case, they use some forbidden mechanicus tech that allows them to warp a short distance away. the problem quickly came to like that they were then at risk for possession. These guys tend to use possession as a sort of tool, again, sort of akin to 40k obliterators.
Not the best fluff but explains the super large backpacks him and the destroyers will all have instead of normal jump packs.
Next up...

He will have the armored tabard that the Deathshroud have. I added shin rivets like mk2 and mk3 armor has as well as various other do dads.
The real work will come once the Deathshroud arrive as these guys will escort the Siege Breaker.

It would be pretty hard without damaging the legs and needing serious GS work to repair the damage. I simply made my own GS versions. :)
And a small FYI Resin Forge sells all the bits needed to make any custom terminator armor you could imagine!

From what i've seen I can always beat the costs at stores and even more online places, even when it comes to international. Shipping costs are still the flat rate of 5 dollars and the main key is, most people that would buy the bits boxes would also most likely buy bits to fill them.
if you have any other points such as price you can get yours for that match the size and quality Resin Forge will begin selling, please do share as we would always love to lower cost even more.

Still needs GS work and gap filling around the brass etch areas.

That looks great! :D Would a MK2 crest fit on where you put the topknot on the Contemptor?

I wasnt going to but it seems the general feedback is they should either have a banner bearer or the sgt have a back banner. Ill figure something out.
I wanted to mess around with the MIG set shown earlier. I finished the Contemptor's knee so far.

I think it looks quite nice. :) As always I'm looking forward to seeing it finished. How would you suggest I cut the armour plating between the Deathshroud Terminator legs.

A really sharp xacto and cut the sides first then a small cut at the belt area then bend back.

Ive decided to go a bit more 'Chaosy' with the SoH Legion CC Veteran Tactical Marines. Still needs a backpack, but im torn on which to use, a FW one of any type, or a normal plastic chaos marine pack.

I think thats the route ill be taking with these as they are CC assault troopers.
Excuse the horrible quality photo. Its 730 am on Sunday and I had a rough night. I figured id work on this guy.
The chipped paint doesn't even show the highlights, but that's ok, ill just buy Photoshop and make sure all future pics are actually decent!
I'm always open to feedback. I do plan to weather the force like the Contemptor, with heavy dirt and dust along with some limited rust and chipped paint. So if its not a good idea, I'm all for reasons behind it!

Nothing to fancy, just a modified Recon Marine with custom backpack and helmet.
As many others have already thought of, I wanted to make a small Tau Force for when 40k is played. At the same time I also wanted a force I could use in 30k. With the Mechanicum rules being pretty small for now, what better way to field Thallax then as Battlesuits!
I know, ive already gotted ripped for this idea as being stupid on reddit but honestly, my gaming group and I all think its a neat idea.
First up is a Thallax (battlesuit) armed with dual fusion cannons and a missile pod. I'm very much open to ideas, even if its just, "your idea sucks".
