Get the testor's striping from michaels. It will make adding stripes and designs much easier Way ahead of you, been using it for my thousand sons stripes for over a year! It's a god send (and how I did the stripes on my bike above)

I'm not going to paint anymore corsairs or dark eldar until we know how they're going to play. Only shredders.

Mocked up what the primaris space marines would look like with Achean heads from FW and the pre-heresy thousand sons theme - thinking about making them an extension of my heresy army, write some fluff about either A) my thousand sons getting caught in a warp storm and finding themselves thrown forward in time to the 41st millenium where they fight for gulliman in order to make up for Magnus' turn, or B) maybe Zhao Arkhad, the thousand sons forge world during the heresy, secretly starts producing primaris marines with a sample of magnus original geneseed or C) gulliman tries to remake the fallen legions - but without their gene flaws this time - using the primaris gene therapy process. Thoughts?

ordered them from a buddy at the weekender 2 weeks ago - didn't realize he would be available for order right after! Still going to get more Achean heads with you though for the next order don't worry!

Finished getting magnus together (or at least, into sub assemblies) thursday evening - but with Dark Imperium and 8th dropping this weekend, I spent my time learning the new rules and getting games in on Saturday...and trying to plan out what I'm going to paint my primaris marines like. I've narrowed it down - rather than doing just "thousand sons primaris" and using the fluff around the Dark Imperium novel to justify it, and rather than sticking to "colors of armies that I don't yet have", I decided to do...both. Behold! The Forgotten Sons - a thousand sons geneseed based primaris chapter, thinly veiled by Bellisarius Cawl so he can use all 20 legion geneseeds without being too upsetting to the imperium. The basic trooper color scheme is shown (the yellow and the scarab motif will be the same color gold, not actually yellow/brown), with the variant shoulder pads and helmets for sergeant, veteran sergeant, and commander level helmets (and shoulder pads) as you move from left to right. The only thing I'm not sold on yet, is which symbols to use on the right shoulder pads. What do you guys think - basic scarabs, or the more stylized winged scarab motif?

I like the idea! I bet you could use both symbols, and just differ based upon the unit. Regular marines can have just the regular scarab and sergeants and the like could have the fancier one.
