I think of this guy as "The Grey Hunter", out on a solo slog across Fenris to slay a monster between campaigns. Think he's probably the sole survivor of his pack, and maybe fresh home from a rotation in the Death Watch? Converted from a chaos warrior. Going to experiment with some snow effects to do up the base, and then weather the cloak to match. Would love c&c if you've got any - i know its not the best photo so might be hard to comment.

From the album: Brother Talon's Project Challenges
All your likes are belong to LUCHES, whose imagery and skills made this possible. ---> An Unending Crusade So, long story short, between a move, rowdy friends, drunk friends, and some damaged property.... ..I had to outsource, rebuild, and find exact pieces to match what I had before. The minute that was done, I buckled down and poured as much time as I could allow as my actual job tends to run me ragged and overly stressed... which makes me quite incapable of holding a paintbrush steady. Time scale of all that mess? 2-3 months. This is including other projects and my personal 40K army I've been building. Many of you will immediately notice a few deviations from the actual image this model is based off of. Allow me to set a few things clear. One, I'm doing this out of appreciation, and am an AMATEUR. I am not a professional, nor have I ever claimed to be. Two, finding exact parts is rather difficult. Three... that helmet... I honestly could not acquire the actual helmet, had to sub it for a grey knights helm. As for color variations, and the obvious random strokes of metallic paint? It's difficult at time to nail exact color patterns, and again, I'm a novice at this. I've only been in the hobby for a fear years, and have no actual training at all, period. All of this is done based off of what feels right or natural. As for the dirty, scratched up appearance, I'm a major supporter of Warhammer 40K's grimdark war-torn universe. I like my models looking like they've just crawled out of massive firefights, or as if they are moving through a series of firefights. No bland poses, everything must be dynamic, and filthy as hell. Sorry for the rant. Here's Venerable Brother Hildebrand at his current stage. Not fully finished, but nearly complete. Took me waaaay too long for this project, but real life tends to do that. -

This is one of my most recent Black Templars. Parts from various kits. The sword is from the Grey Knights Strike Squad. Didn't need to make him, but I was bored and needed to build and paint something. Also I had a fortunate moment when I was cleaning my apartment and found the parts needed to make this guy and about 15 other marines. Pro tip: Clean your place. It has treasure! -

Just some Crusaders. I normally run a couple of Crusader Squads like this one here in my 2,000 point games. Small kill-teams with a heavy weapon. -

This is my first converted Emperor's Champion made from the Masters of the Chapter. His weapon is from the Warriors of Chaos Knights set. Just filled in the chaos symbols with green stuff and BAM! Emperor's Champion. I'm really hoping in the upcoming codex that there will be an option of weapons and other gear for the Champion; considering his weapons and armor are dependent on what's currently the best available in that particular crusade. -

Black Templars Terminator Command Squad

From the album: Crusader_91
This is my current Terminator Command squad led by my Terminator Marshal. The Flail in the Sergeants had counts as a Lightning Claw most of time. But it also works as a Power Maul. Some of my early source lighting and weathering on this unit as well. Weathering is mainly found on the sergeants Storm Shield and forward leg. A little bit can also be found at the bottom of his tunic. The source lighting is coming from the various lanterns and the vents on their backs. -

A few plasma gun marines painted up once 6th Edition changed Preferred Enemy. Then I realized that our beloved Chapter lost such an amazing rule and was given rage in its place... There was much rage... -

This is one of my most recent characters. The last Templar I painted. I should have gotten a photo of his back side because I started doing a lot of work using source lighting. -

This is but a piece of Crusader's army. These are just the models I had on hand when I decided to take it all out and photograph it. Back at home, I had another 4 Land Raiders, some Rhinos and a couple more squads of Crusaders, Terminators, etc. I want to say I have somewhere in the area of 13,000 points and pretty soon I will be building the Marhsal's Household.
