In the Collected Visions artwork, there are numerous illustrations of 'Recon' marines. They range from what we know now as scouts, to fully power armoured astartes. Some are geared with what appear to be Las carbines, some with communications gear. This may be another case of artistic license, but the range of pictures suggests something more.
Such units don't exist in 40k, largely due to scouts filling the role. In the 30k era this is not necessarily the case. Regardless, just one picture of something novel is enough to inspire people. In this case, it has.
Over on the Great Crusade forums, there's an ongoing showcase of people's Recon marines. Check out their work and show us your own! Pictured here is one of Ilmarinen's White Scars.
EDIT: It seems my hint of a competition in the thread has turned into an official competition. Get to work Heretics!
