scruff Posted July 24, 2008 Share Posted July 24, 2008 Here we go, an old conversion I did of a librarian based on a spare grey knight miniature I had knocking around. Finished around a month before pics of the new GW miniature started popping up online at which point I felt just a bit upset. Anyway here goes with the pics, oh and can anyone guess the origin of the fingers on the left hand?

nurglespuss Posted July 24, 2008 Share Posted July 24, 2008 I like this, very dynamic and original, and some nice appropriate sculpting too :> The only thing I can possible suggest, is to paint the Ultramarine Sign on the top of his terminator carapace white, to stand out against the gold wings :> Great original work!

Prtyjedi Posted July 24, 2008 Share Posted July 24, 2008 Hey, that's a really cool model, and a nice distinctive look thanks to the GK bits. What bothers me is the left hand, because the thumb's position/pointing makes it look silly. But that's just me.

Kryppers Posted July 24, 2008 Share Posted July 24, 2008 I'll take a guess and say the fingers are from the PA Rocket launcher's support arm. its a well converted model, and you've done a good job making it look like a librarian and not a GK.. nicely done. although.. my only major criticism is that the back of the torso looks raised too high Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/141848-converted-um-termie-librarian/#findComment-1640136 Share on other sites More sharing options...

madman544 Posted July 24, 2008 Share Posted July 24, 2008 Are the left hand fingers from a wraithlord? ;) that would explain why there are only 3 ive spent way too much time repositioning those tiny pieces not to recognize them lol Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/141848-converted-um-termie-librarian/#findComment-1640232 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kushan Blackrazor Posted July 24, 2008 Share Posted July 24, 2008 Thought for sure they were from the gunner's left hand in the old Vindicator kit...

scruff Posted July 24, 2008 Author Share Posted July 24, 2008 He did have four, will have to see if I can find the missing finger.

homerjwho Posted July 24, 2008 Share Posted July 24, 2008 Looks awesome, I like the grey knight head idea. Is it Stern's hand by any chance? Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/141848-converted-um-termie-librarian/#findComment-1640713 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Irabrai Posted July 24, 2008 Share Posted July 24, 2008 Would it be a space marine hand chopped up so that the fingers are pointing out, instead of being clenched? Lookin good.

Fuhror Templar Posted August 1, 2008 Share Posted August 1, 2008 yeah, I like the whole conversion and the grey knight head looks awesome for a librarian as well as the scripture from the GK terminator. I don't think the hand is from Bro-Cap Stern. I wanna say the hand from the roke launcher cut up and put horizontal, but that was apparently a no, so i think its all green stuff maybe?

Mal Posted August 1, 2008 Share Posted August 1, 2008 is that a tac marines hand, the one that grips the boltgun near the barrel? It looks like those fingers were once curled (from the joints) but there are 2 joins made there... so it could possibly even be from a fist..

Midas Posted August 2, 2008 Share Posted August 2, 2008 The model is great. The hand came frome the warp. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/141848-converted-um-termie-librarian/#findComment-1650597 Share on other sites More sharing options...
scruff Posted August 2, 2008 Author Share Posted August 2, 2008 The fingers are actually the tips of aerials from the old rhino kit, so just from the bits box no where as exotic as the warp. I might give him a bionic pinky thinking about it, that's not a bad idea at all.
