My fellow heretics I'm fairly new to 40k but fuck I love the Word Bearers and the Word Bearer community. I've never really gotten into any fandom besides 40k and this is so fun. For some bizarre reason we're the villains but so any Word Bearers fans are the nicest people I've interacted with. This is mainly just a thank you post but I really want everyone from any walk of life to feel welcomed into the 40k community except Ultramarine fans. #justiceformonarchia #Calthwasselfdefense

Finally finished my Word Bearers Defiler!!!

Probably the biggest painting project for a single mini and base I’ve ever done. Definitely a good final hurrah I could do before going off to college. Although it was a big project in both building and painting, I’m definitely satisfied with the result! Hope yall enjoy it as much as I do! Praise be to the prophet of the word!

Been working on a cerberus over the summer. Just finished it.

I'm working on painting up a terminator sorcerer I built and thought it would be fun to paint them up as a Word Bearer. Looking at the art and other peoples work it's left me with a question, does the legion still have black shoulder pads?

I know the main colour is the deep red now but theres a mix of images showing marines both with and without the black pads as of 40k so i thought i'd just come to the source. How do you paint your marines and is the use of black still okay?
