Classic Berzerkers

This post shows off my recently completed squad of classic berzerkers. I managed to find a complete box (10 models) of the plastic berzerkers, all unpainted. It was a very lucky and bargain find! I then picked up the two metal ones to add to the squad, with one of those metal ones, with the power fist, becoming the squad champion, Threxos Hellbreed.  Hellbreed is a well-known champion of The Hounds of Abaddon, mentioned in the 8th ed Chaos Space Marines Codex. Hellbreed is now leader of the Hounds of Abaddon, but since these are classic berzerkers, I'm going to say this is an earlier version of him, as he was working his way up the ranks. 

It was really enjoyable to put these models together, and I tested my conversion skills by sawing and cutting the two-piece models to create some different poses. Painting them was also fun, and not too difficult - I probably said before that Black Legion models are very easy, with all the black and metallic colours. 

I plan to paint up some more historical models in the future, now that I know I can get some nice results from them! Until next time...
