Hello there my fellow Spikey-nauts! (This is the term I've decided to use for us regular Spikey Bits Blog viewers, we'll see if it sticks.) I suppose an introduction is in order, as this is my first post on the Spikey Bits Blog.
I go by Gruebot on several other web forums, so I think I'll stick with that here as well. I'm from Albuquerque, New Mexico where I game regularly with my 40k club 'Bolters Con Queso'. I've been playing 40k since about 93' and just recently picked up Warmachine as well. I usually play Space Marines or Chaos Marines.
So today I've decided to post a few photos of my Relictors Chapter. For those of you who don't know or have never heard of the Relictors, their back story can be found here: RELICTORS . Lets start with a few of my HQ choices. At this point I have one of all most one of every type painted up. As you can just below is my Terminator Chaplain (one of the first models I painted for this force).
I have also a Terminator Librarian. As you can see there is a Slaneshi Chaos symbol on his force axe. I wanted to make his weapon somewhat chaotic so as to keep it in line with the Relictor's back story. But I also really liked the force axe that this model all ready had so I decided to just embellish it.
And lastly I have my SM Captain. In order to 'chaosify' his weapon I did a very simple conversion for this model. I really just switched out his normal sword with a daemon sword from a Bloodletter. I think it makes a great relic blade and fits perfectly with my overall theme.
Well that's all for today. I hope you enjoyed viewing this post as much I did writing it. See you soon!

I like that the Chaplain is purely Imperial but the other characters have a little Chaos zing to them. It fits the backstory of the Relictors nicely.
ReplyDeletelooks awesome i cant wait to see more
ReplyDeleteLovin' it so far! I'm excited to see more...
ReplyDeleteDamn it the Relictors aren't renegades, radicals yes but they are still loyal to the Imperium..
ReplyDeleteI believe in one of the references to the Relictors after Armageddon, they were classified "Excommunicate Traitoris" even though they are not followers of Chaos. :P My favorite chapter!
ReplyDeleteWe are still Loyal! Maybe not like the lapdog UM's however, we serve the One true Emperor just the same - our methods may be a little 'radical' to some but they get the job done and banish Chaos wherever we find it, often using the Chaos 'Relics' against the filth - and my 5th Battle Company is growing all the time, nearly back to pre-exterminus levels, Thank-you Grey Knights... :(
