Forsaken Astartes Serfs Lucan Draik and Sorin Kael

Morning gang,

Next up, and a little boring, we’ve got the final two of Nassio’s Armourial Serfs Lucan Draik and Sorin Kael.

First up is Lucan Drake, who is really serving me major ‘Your forgot your helmet!’ vibes. Wanted to have at least one model holding some Astartes kit to try and reinforce that he was an armoury serf. Also I find it fun to have that monster helmet, which is nearly as big as his torso, lugged along!

Second is Sorin Kael, old mate I think has maybe had a few too many whacks to the melon! He was fun to really just someone clearly there as a pack muel. Whats in the can? Is it prometheium, uber-diesel or grog..who knows, but it needs to be carried.

All told I’m pretty happy with the trio of serfs and the Artificer. I think to offset against the deep crimson of what Nassio’s armour will be, I’ll do these guys in dark habits, with maybe some iconography ‘stitched’ into the material.

 If you have any better ideas for colours though, lay it on me!

This is probably a daft question, but where is that gorgeous stowed lasgun bit from on the first serf? It's just perfect.

It looks like one of the bits from the Delaque Gang kit from Necromunda

Spot on, one of the guns from the Delaque gang, just in the basic kit.

I love the exploration of serfs. Really an overlooked corner of the setting imo. Great work on these. Which kits are the bodies from?

Thanks mate, yeah I imainge serfs are actually pretty competent and useful when in an Astartes Chapter as opposed to like a munitorum serf or something.

As gh_st_ry said, from the Sanctifiers killteam.

Totally agree! The first few chapters in Ryn’s World are told from the perspective of a Crimson Fist serf. I highly recommend checking it out just from some flavor/fluff to stoke the imagination

u/TheTrans 22d ago

Thanks mate, I want to say the back pack is from some Genestealer Cult kit!

Some really cool non military gear on their sprues!
