So in my attempt to build a drop pod skitarii list it turns out I need marines for the drop pods...
On a fluff sense iron hands works great, but I really hate the bland black and white. Especially as I've gone and done traditional skitarii colors.
So I'm thinking a successor chapter. Keeping in line with iron hands/Mars theme maybe the "Void Dragons" or such?
What I'm hoping to accomplish is what color scheme would you expect to see? And blend well with skitarii as well?

I've seen some super cool looking Iron Hands "homebrew" chapters online painted in the traditional red/bone of mars, and it can look super cool in connection with the skitarii.

Void Dragons sounds good, but maybe too Salamander'y? Maybe I'm just thinking of fiery flaming stuff when I think of dragons.
The official successors are Brazen Claws (Red and Blue quartered), Iron Lords (no paint scheme that I can see), Red Talons (Red), Sons of Medusa (Green), Steel Confessors (white and grey).
So I guess if you want, Red Talons is a Red coloured Iron Hands successor that you could give some marble white trims to (plus using the IH upgrade packs) and it'll very nicely match those Martians.

An alternative take/way to get pods would be too take cads from codex: Spacemarines of a Tech Marine, 2 squads of scouts, and 3 drop pods. Convert some "Scout servitors" and the tech marine all look very martian already. Use Iron hand Tactics for that feel no pain.

Will has the general idea of what I'm planning to do. With servetor style scouts and tech marines the black and white of iron hands may not be so bland, but I still want a but more color splashed in there.
Void dragons would be a throw back to original fluff where the void dragon was the machine God of Mars supposedly housed deep with in the planets core. (Supposedly some link to a lost necron God there).
