Will be interesting to see if I can pull it off with some careful cutting of the knight helms and with some green stuff, give it that more Norse look. I also want to do the helm in a more Norse and less knightly fashion as well. I like the dreadknights sword so that is an option I am considering, though if I can find a Norse looking axe that is large enough, be sure I will be using that. The major work I really want to do is to replace the chain sword with a giant axe or sword. The fluff I'll work on more as well, but I really love the knights and I can't wait to get to converting. During the 13th black crusade they fought in defence of Cadia and drove back the dark legions in many engagements, earning them a high reputation among the cadian shock troops. During the Crusade the world nearly fell to the foul xenos orks, but the vylka fenryka saved them and the knightly house now is sworn by honor to the space wolves. The back ground is going to be of a knight house from a feudal world close to Fenris. So the idea is to go with similar colors and iconography of the sons of russ.

Space wolves are my second love and I cheat on my IG with them from time to time. What I think I am going to do is go a little wolfy.

Now my titan is red in the colors of Legio Invicta, so thats taken also.

Anyways, I have been thinking about my Knight and how I want him to align and what colors to go with, I really want him to stand out from my IG, as I really don't need another green thing. I will have to say I am now sold on an airbrush and if any of you are serious in the hobby even a little, go get one, they are so amazingly awesome and will save so much time on your part.

Luckily I finished the psykers the other night and with my buddy letting me use his airbrush, my three new chimeras are nice and green with only detail work left. Mainly is because I have enough models in the que right now that need painting and work, the biggest being my Warhound Titan: Vindex Draconis. I picked up my Knight over the weekend but it has remained in its box for now.
