After Charad stole my idea (or rather posted here first!) the burner was lit and I decided I better get cracking on my own Knight Legion.

My Suns of Damnation will be accompanied to battle by these boyos here. This is a first attempt and did not involve much conversion (knight cannon and SM chainsword). This will be my paladin STC. My Lancer will be similar but will have a lance instead. I am planning on my errant to have a predator style cannon on his shoulder and 2 combat fists. I have no idea yet for the castellan variant.

All comments welcome.

One idea might be to replace the heads with those of T-sons space Marines (Slightly converted of course) to make them look slightly less Necronish.

While the central idea has merit, these are too obviously necrons.

A head swap will certainly help.

I have a bunch of khemri heads that could do the trick but I was saving these for the seneschals.

The Necrons and Thousand Sons share a distinctive imagery . Along with early Eldar sketches they all have egyptian iconography and imagery associated with them.

While thousand son heads might be helpful I think they might be out of proportion but i will see. I have a lot of them as well as my 40k Sons have been put on hold until GW release a cult list for them or do another revamp. My club mates still play with the old codex so they may get a dusting off...

Will get some paint on him and finish the other members of the squad - these are all I have to work with at the minute.

There are plenty of bits to rip from the Tomb Kings fantasy army as well.  You can use all sorts of fantasy stuff, if you simply paint it metallic instead of realistic.  For example, replacing the Necron heads with hawk heads and painting them gold will give a look like Egyptian statuary.  Khemri shoulder pads from Blood Bowl are shaped like Scarabs and come on sprues for easy use.

Is the plan to use the AMTL 2.0 to make a titan/knight list, just with a Tzeentch theme?

That's the plan Neal - I would like to have each titan I have to have its own knight household to accompany it.

Heavy weapon loadout titans will have castellans in support and assault / tactical titans will have lancer/errant and paladins respectively.

Nice idea with the hawk heads and such, will look into it. I have a lot of bits from Khemri range and can see what I have to use.
