  • 10 x Vigilator Squad
    Cloaked in rich black armor, this squad is ready to strike with their precise, deadly blades. The detailing on their robes and weapons adds an additional layer of depth to their imposing presence.
  • 3 x Shield Captain
    Standing tall, these leaders bear the iconic Custodes insignia with authority. Their armor gleams with dark metallics, and the shield and weapon effects reflect their unmatched skills and tactical prowess.
  • 3 x Telemon Dreadnought
    Massive and intimidating, each Dreadnought is designed with heavy accents and ominous undertones, representing the Custodes’ raw power and resilience. The weathered textures and highlights capture their indomitable force on the battlefield.
  • 2 x Navigator
    With an ethereal look, the Navigators bring a unique aesthetic to the Custodes ranks. The subtle use of color differentiates them, highlighting their distinct roles in supporting the Custodes on their missions.

With each model painted to a high standard, this Adeptus Custodes project balances both dark tones and highlight detailing, making this army ready for epic battles in the Warhammer 40K universe. Our High-Level miniature painting standard brings out the finest details in every model, from precise armor highlights to weapon textures. The dark and bold color scheme is further enhanced by custom, realistic basing, designed to complement the Custodes’ fearsome aura.
