Sword Brother Adelard Posted November 25, 2020 Share Posted November 25, 2020 Can anyone help me track down any more terminator sculpts with full tabards? I'm trying to piece together an Ancient to match the rest of my termies without having to learn to Green stuff first! Currently I have the really old terminator captain with sword, Storm Bolter and a back banner, but, while a fantastic sculpt, he is really quite small by modern standards. There's also the 5 Deathwing Knight torsos, all have full tabards, and I already have two of each body on my Templar army. There's also the Dark Vengeance Deathwing Sergeant, which is proving to be difficult to source on his own... Anyone aware of any more? Character sculpts or special editions perhaps?

Sword Brother Adelard Posted November 25, 2020 Author Share Posted November 25, 2020 He's workable. Belial may be worth a shot as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sword Brother Adelard Posted November 26, 2020 Author Share Posted November 26, 2020 Librarians are tricky because of the hoods, That's one of the best stormcast conversions I've seen. And I think 90% of that comes from the leg swap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mandragola Posted November 26, 2020 Share Posted November 26, 2020 That Stormcast conversion is spectacular. You could make some fantastic bladeguard that way, for something like BT or DA. The most obvious place to get terminators with tabards are the Deathwing Knights. These come in a box that can be made to make normal DA terminators, meaning you get tons of weapon options. You actually get two sets of chest pieces, so you could take the knight chests for conversions and still make a whole normal terminator squad. https://www.games-workshop.com/en-GB/Dark-Angels-Deathwing-Knights Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charlo Posted November 26, 2020 Share Posted November 26, 2020 Stormcast bits on Space Marines is usually a pet peeve of mine, but replacing the legs like that is a whole different ball game. It looks incredible!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marshal Reinhard Posted November 26, 2020 Share Posted November 26, 2020 a lot of "conversions" with stormcasts i've seen have more or less just been sticking marine helm and backpack on an otherwise complete stormcast model. refreshing to see one that's more marine than stormcast WrathOfTheLion, Charlo, Champion Rawne and 1 other 4 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

painting.for.my.sanity Posted November 26, 2020 Share Posted November 26, 2020 Oh, you don't have to sell me on the virtues of the Deathwing Knight bodies... This makes me very excited to paint my old Deathwing that I'm stripping right now :D Sword Brother Adelard 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sword Brother Adelard Posted November 26, 2020 Author Share Posted November 26, 2020 I have 5 more on the way, bit sick of them now, as they are soooo detailed! Painting a FW shield is like painting a whole separate marine sometimes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
painting.for.my.sanity Posted November 29, 2020 Share Posted November 29, 2020 Just finished stripping my childhood Deathwing. There'll be a little repair work and neatening up to be done, but hopefully by early next year I'll have five tabbarded Terminators to show off here (plus some others with hoods).

Sword Brother Adelard Posted November 29, 2020 Author Share Posted November 29, 2020 The grey knight heads fit well in those bodies, and the one with the hood moulded in can be hacked out and replaced. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
