Dorns Templar Posted March 22, 2013 Share Posted March 22, 2013 Greetings Brothers (& Sisters!). I have finally managed to post pictures of my vow for this year. Going back to the first army I collected - Black Templars, which I subsequently sold and have lamented ever since. I have vowed to paint a 10 man Crusader squad and a Land Raider Crusader. Made progress on the hurricane bolters, and the assault cannon. And a little further forward with the crusaders. Should have more pictures to post of my progress soon. Feel free to comment everyone, cheers! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dorns Templar Posted March 24, 2013 Author Share Posted March 24, 2013 Thanks!! Got some pictures of painted mini's now. Painted furiously over the weekend after realising I only had 1 week left to finish my vow, gulp! Pictures of the Crusader squad. Bodies finished, just needing their heads and arms!! Now, this is not part of my vow, but I got distracted last night and cobbled together a Chaplain based on the Tyberos body. I'm using the original heelmet at the moment, but i'm not sure how I feel about it. C&C welcome as always. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Firepower Posted March 24, 2013 Share Posted March 24, 2013 It's all so...clean. Like, even down to the organization of your models, their pre-painting pinning, and the workstation itself. What sort of orderly monster are you!? I would stick with that head on the Termi Chaplain. It is Templary enough, and can easily be painted into a skully-look if you use a little imagination ;) Anyway, this is all very solid work so far. Easily 'Eavy Metal standard. Deadline or no deadline though, I wanna see some more detail on that Raider! A BT tank is naked without lots and lots of white scripture, seals, shields, heraldry and maybe a couple of candles, or a shrubbery... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What sort of orderly monster are you!? Organisation and execution is impeccable - I will be keenly following this! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Midnightmare Posted March 25, 2013 Share Posted March 25, 2013 Good stuff indeed, and loving the termie although I always like to see a suitable skull helm, this could work if painted in bone Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dorns Templar Posted March 25, 2013 Author Share Posted March 25, 2013 Thanks for the kind comments everyone. Firepower - a Templar orderly maybe? I can't help being a control freak! Midnight Runner - I would probably go with a skull helmet if I had one. The picture of the MoS in the Templar codex has a Mk V helmet, and I'm sure Grimaldus has a similar looking helmet as well. Probably painted bone it would look ok, but I'm still thinking about it. Hmm. No pictures tonight, though I have got the arms half finished so I should have something to show tomorrow.

batu Posted March 26, 2013 Share Posted March 26, 2013 I like it so far. I think this army will look fantastic when finished. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dorns Templar Posted March 30, 2013 Author Share Posted March 30, 2013 Hello again everyone. After a busy week, i've just managed to finish my vow in time. Sorry for the lack of updates since last weekend. Vow complete! Just enough time for a coffee before work. C&C welcome! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Biohazard Posted March 30, 2013 Share Posted March 30, 2013 These look great, I wish I had half your discipline when it came to organising my workspace I tend to just work from a random pile of bits and knock a lot of stuff over lol. The Land Raider looks awesome with the added scripture, are those decals? As for the Tyberos head I reckon that could be made to look a little like the Punisher skull with a little touch of GS. I love the pose of the Chaplain though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dorns Templar Posted March 31, 2013 Author Share Posted March 31, 2013 Thanks Biohazard. I can get a bit messy whilst putting models together, I just can't paint when it's that way :) Those are indeed decals on the LR, from the Forgeworld Black Templar sheet. Great to work with, though I admit I'm a bit miffed that the gloss that I painted on first shows so much, even after a coat of matt. Think I'll spray the whole model gloss next time. I like the idea of the Punisher skull. May have to have a go at that, thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
