"By the Lion's Blade and First Legion Honour."
Long before the modern era, the I Legion marched across the stars clad in unrelenting black ceramite, bearing the sacred heraldry of Caliban. Today, our studio is proud to reveal our latest completed project: a custom 1/18 Dark Angels Horus Heresy Dreadwing / Deathwing Veteran.
Starting with a high-detail 1/18 base figure, this build incorporates custom-sculpted armor upgrade parts and a precise multi-layered painting pass to reflect the grim, ancient knight aesthetic of the First Legion.
⚔️ Calibanite Winged Helm & Heresy-Era Black Ceramite
The core armor celebrates the First Legion's 30K origin prior to the tragic Fall of Caliban:
-
Satin Black Armor Finish: Layered in smooth matte-to-satin black tones with sharp metallic silver edge highlights that define every armor panel.
-
Iconic Winged Helm: Features golden-trimmed red wings cresting a knightly visor, paired with glowing red lens effects to strike fear into enemy lines.
-
Heraldic Tilting Shield & Checker Patterns: Hand-painted black-and-white checkerboard patterns on the shoulder tilt shield and forearm plate, anchored by the iconic red winged sword crest on the chest.
💥 Heavy Power Fist & Luminous Plasma Pistol
Built for intense boarding actions and purging high-priority targets, this marine comes fully armed:
-
Heavy Riveted Power Fist: The left hand is fitted with a reinforced, spike-detailed Power Fist designed for crushing heavy armor, complete with custom wrist piping and green sensor accents.
-
Glowing Plasma Pistol: Hand-painted with a smooth cyan-to-white OSL (Object Source Lighting) heat glow effect on the plasma coils.
-
Spiked Pauldrons & Relic Keys: Includes studded Mk III style shoulder armor, lightning motifs on the greaves, and a waist-mounted key vault pendant symbolising the Secrets of the Unforgiven.
