Custom built Custodes, Gallery #1
This will be the first of two set of images showing a squad of custom built Costodes which I painted. Ever since I got the giant Horus Heresy in pictures book a few years ago, I thought custodes would be a very fun project!!

Sorry! I looked around, there are no images of them unpainted...I very rarely do that anyway.
DeleteNo worries, I was just curious about what bits were used and what was sculpted. Anyway, great job on them, and thanks for all the posts on the blog.
