Very nice flint you can almost feel their character....very noble

But they're supposed to be Templars. :(

The Templars were the Knights of the Temple ofSolomon so I'm confused as to the disappointment.

Holy censored.gif guys. Talk about keeping hobby batteries charged!

Thanks so much. I don't think I've ever gotten such a positive response to a post before. I'll be sure to do that enthusiasm justice.

Speaking of which, I've had a ton of folks ask about my prospective color scheme for the Templar-Brethren, so I thought I'd post a painting WiP.

Here's Knight Levasque sans backpack, basing and a bit of neatening up. Feel free to make C&C, since he's still very much in a WiP stage.

Replies!

@ Recon - Thanks! I wanted to straddle the line between avatars of the Emperor and vicious, pragmatic warriors.

@ Brother-Cap'n Arkan - All the likes, Sir.

@ JackDaw - Glad to hear it. Domino Burkhardt is my favorite (and most in depth) conversion to date.

@ Slipstreams - Awe, does it not warrent Raul Julia Bison levels of approval? sad.png

Thanks buddy biggrin.png

@ Noctis - Ah the Templar we all know and love won't be around for another 10,000 years or so. These are my take on their start.

@ Dantay - Excellent! Glad to hear it

@ Kizzdougs - Thanks buddy! How's the paint looking so far?

@ Kol - I was thinking more loosely based on the Knights Hospitaller, or the Templar of Malta and Rhodes for mine. Thus the red Maltese cross and white "tabard."

@ Augustus - Thanks! What say you to paint so far?

@ LionofJudah - See, in the entertaining convo I had with Heinrich before we started this tread, my exact words were "I wonder exactly how little yellow I can get away with?" biggrin.png

So far one knee pad and the FIST circle is the length and breadth of yellow I want on there.

@ Hushrong - Thanks buddy! We'll make sure not to disappoint.

@ KBA - Pretty tall praise coming from you biggrin.png

I will say the Templar Brethren kit is an absolute dream to build. The only "downside" is you have to use a MK 3 despoiler squad with them. Any other armor mark of legs (even MK2) looks absurdly tiny with how beefy the armored torsos are.

Refer to previous post biggrin.png!!!

Your new avatar should be a mangeko sharingan

I would but I like Cybernetics more than ninja-manga-magic-shenanigans :P

Man Flint, they were looking good, then I got to that Champion...jawdrop.gif THAT is a champion.

Is he just made from the Templar upgrade kit?

ALso, + 1 for the Knights of Malta reference. I have a feeling that the Soverign Order would find a way to survive until 30k.

@ Larkyn - Do it! Always happy to see some inspiration happy.png

@ Slipstreams - I thought you were already a closet Fist player biggrin.png

@ Roland - Haha, I like the strikeout correction. And thanks for the praise. I feel like Burkhardt is my most involved conversion to date.

@ Kizzdougs - How does he hold up now?

@ Recon - Thanks! I feel like I'm slowing figuring out how black works.

gibber gibber, that black and the white are so damned near perfect.... Nope in no way jealous at all... Love the Sin City-esque almost monochrome feel with a little spot colour here and there...

 

And the very subtle osl from the plasma pistol looks great too....
