Time for an update, work has started on the squad of Red Corsairs. First in line was the leader of the squad:
Bit of rough fluff for him:
He is a Fallen Black templar disillusioned with the imperium, with him being an accomplished swordsman he soon fought his way to a position of command within the corsairs.
For the models themselves I don't want on overly chaos feel to them as in little of the traditional banding and spikes. I think this will help to distinguish them from my Word Bearers,plus they will also have newer marks of armour and their weapons will be largely be unchanged from imperial ones bar defaced aquillas.
The Templar cross and wings on his breast plate have been attacked with a knife and will be painted as if he has ritually shattered it, much like how Talos shatters his aquilla in the night lords novels.
I've also kept the theme of beads and trinkets on thread like I did on the Corsair I made ages ago
Well thats it for now, I've started converting the 2nd member of the squad and shall liekly have him posted up in a few days time
