Sons of Horus Justaerin

Determined to maintain (read: not entirely repaint) my Sons of Horus, I have chosen to field them for my club's upcoming 40k tournament.

I have deemed Codex: Space Wolves ideal to reflect their superiority over other legions. Grey Hunters contribute a strong, versatile core of astartes with a very flexible and characterful contingent of Wolf Guard to use as squad leaders and Justaerin Terminators. The options Wolf Guard have are ideal for fielding any combination of gear.

Painted Mark II Son of Horus

The model created in the Mark II power armour series and bolter created in this tutorial have have received a brush licking to join the ranks of my Sons of Horus. I've changed the arms and stance a little from the model shown in the tutorial. A tutorial for doing the base is also available here.

Pre-Heresy players – are we codex criminals?

As a player of pre-Heresy marine armies, I, and many of you, have to fight a struggle to justify the use of the Codex we deem most suitable for our legion, lest we be labelled all sorts of fashionable names! I find it somewhat amusing that we are accused of jumping upon bandwagons or riding the power creep of newly released codices. Are we supposed to sit back and let them gather a little dust before daring to write a list? I chose to represent myself as the Warmaster's finest legion, the Sons of Horus, so I refuse to sit in the shadows and hide my secrets (Yes, I'm talking about you, El'Johnson). I will readily admit I want a strong list of heroic marines to represent my army. Is this a crime?
