One of the biggest things I like about the warhammer universe is the fluff, so I like to make sure all my armies have some, in this case the knight is called Sir Krohn and he is from House Steinschild, which is on the planet Voyria. I used a made up house, so I could do what I want with them. Because this is a knight and heraldry is a big thing I have tried to get as much meaning as I can into the armour, so:
- The right shin plate and shoulder pad show the house's allegiance - half Imperial and half to Horus (I have left the armour showing their crusade allegiance)
- The shield shows the house symbol - the boar on a yellow and white background.
- The left shoulder pad shows the knight's personal device - the rabbit (probably a hare) with an axe.
- The left shin shows the house symbol and the knight's personal device together.
*Really loosely - badger not a boar
Considering this was a model I bought on a whim and had sat on a shelf for a couple of years, which me hating the colours I had used on it, I am really pleased with the eventual outcome and I am very tempted to expand this household in the future.
