Evening all!
The Eradicators are the custom chapter I used through my undergrad years in Maynooth and now they're back. With a vengeance!
The original scheme used black armour and fiery orange shoulder pads inked to the max with chestnut ink. Looking back it was terribly painted so I've gone back to try and reinvigorate the Chapter and start playing it again.
....with extreme highlighting :)
Instead of fiery orange it's now Macharius Solar Orange, no inking this time. The highlighting was to break up the dark scheme and I have to say I like it. Obviously something like extreme highlighting isn't to everyone's taste but I think it suits this scheme and an army like space marines.
I'll be going for a list with some bikes, three vindicators, some land speeders and some basic troops in razorbacks with assault cannons and a single drop pod.
I'll be using Codex: Blood Angels for this, my original chapter used lightning fast tactics and the destructively fast nature of the Blood Angels book seems to suit it quite well.
I'll throw the list up here soon enough and over on onthestep.net so feel free to criticise the paint scheme and the list and if you have any similar stories of custom chapters you've invented and how you played them feel free to drop a comment.
