FateSealer Posted January 3, 2009 Share Posted January 3, 2009 Hey guys, hope everyone's doing well. I've been away from the hobby for over 2 years since starting university, but I plan on completing my Black templars assault squad sometime soon (I'll make it a new years resolution!). They are painted in a blue flame theme, and are supposed to be extremely badass :( . Here are pictures of the completed models, and the three that I will be working on. Chaplain: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v247/ryanchen/Games/Warhammer/chaplain.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v247/ryanchen/Games/Warhammer/026.jpg Templar, sword and shield: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v247/ryanchen/Games/Warhammer/Assault1.jpg Templar, powerfist and chainsaw katana http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v247/ryanchen/Games/Warhammer/Assault2.jpg Unfinished templars http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v247/ryanchen/Games/Warhammer/028.jpg I plan on adding an intricate design along the bottom of the chaplain's cloak, but I need to regain my skills before I attempt that! All the best, have a great new year! -Ryan Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/156423-bt-elite-assault-squad/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brother SRM Posted January 3, 2009 Share Posted January 3, 2009 Love em! They look like street racer space marines... Also, the chappie's cape looks fantastic. Striking, especially against dark armor. Hope your skills return to you soon! It's just like riding a bike ;) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/156423-bt-elite-assault-squad/#findComment-1828685 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lord Exedore Posted January 3, 2009 Share Posted January 3, 2009 Powerful!! They are really dynamic and very nicely painted. I hope to see the full squad one day ;) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/156423-bt-elite-assault-squad/#findComment-1828707 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Gordofski Posted January 5, 2009 Share Posted January 5, 2009 Lovin' the blue blade on the storm shield marine. Where is it from? Very pleasing scheme overall, and the chappy's cloak is great stuff.

airbender Posted January 5, 2009 Share Posted January 5, 2009 Is that freehand on the templar's sword? The icy blue has such nice contrast with the black armour! also seconding post #4 and #6, where is that sword from?

FateSealer Posted January 8, 2009 Author Share Posted January 8, 2009 Hey guys thanks for the comments. The sword is from an old weapon sprue I bought through GW mail order, when you could order individual parts. It came with a hammer, the one Valten of the Empire army uses. The hand attached to the sword is armoured and looks perfect on a space marine. Also at the very hilt of the sword is actually a maltese cross, so it fits even better for a BT! Hope that helps.

Captain Engelhardt Posted January 8, 2009 Share Posted January 8, 2009 And where is that long chainsword from ? Is it just several chainswords glued together ? It looks really cool !

FateSealer Posted January 11, 2009 Author Share Posted January 11, 2009 The chainsword is modified from two normal chainswords. And I curved it slightly to look like a katana sorta hehe. And also SFD you misunderstood! Those three were painted before I had quit. The unpainted three will be my test, though I'm currently just doing some normal templars to get the feel back.

c-wrex Posted January 11, 2009 Share Posted January 11, 2009 I love the concept of special 'more-elite-than-elite' units for marine armies. And these particular iterations of that theme are incredible. You rock, and roll, at the same time. edit: Is it just me, or do 'beakies' look best as assault marines with jump packs?

Lokes Posted January 13, 2009 Share Posted January 13, 2009 WoW, those guys are awesome!
