This was another experiment of min for my new army ‘Luna Wolves’. After reading the first three books out of the Horus Heresy set. I realized i had to create an army along these lines, more along the lines of, Horus never turned too chaos and stayed true his father. They carried on upgrading their Armour thus becoming the same as his brothers legions.
Anyway, all the colours and techniques were done due to previous and experimenting on making him look as best as possible. The colours were based on the second book 'False Gods’ front cover.
So here goes, the colours revealed. I cant say the mix to the point but ill try explaining it:
