Brother Mord Posted March 3, 2009 Share Posted March 3, 2009 I was looking over in the hall of honor section at all of the cool models in a post your favorite model thread. I always admire others painting skills and work. So I would like to create a "post your favorite Black Templar" thread with a few criteria. Post one model (or two or three maybe) and Give an explanation why it's your favorite. Is the Model/unit/vehicle your favorite based on ONE of three things: 1) You really love the paint job 2) The model/unit/vehicle really kicks butt during game play, and how so. 3)The model itself is your favorite because of the way it is designed, or a conversion you did, just looks cool, ect... So here is my entry Brother Chaplain Orros of the Argossa Crusade REASON I really love the pose of the model and how the skull helmet looks. It was my first Chaplain model and has led my Templars to many a victory, I have an emotional attachment to him. Sadly with the new prefered enemy vow I have had less reason to take chaplains so he has been shelved for a while. Might be time for him to make an appearance again.

Brother DjoulZ Posted March 3, 2009 Share Posted March 3, 2009 Another Chaplain. Chaplain Magnus of the Lustrum Crusade He was my first HQ model and first conversion. Left arm comes from the missile launcher guy. I bent his last two fingers to give him a religious gesture and it turned out to be some sort of martial art gesture too. Because I was too heavy on the varnish he turned out very shiny, hence the name of my crusade. Lustrum = shiny in latin. For some reason my very recently finished TDA marshal received a good cover of varnish too... :blink: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reaver13 Posted March 4, 2009 Share Posted March 4, 2009 Obviously not completely finished, but I seem to have an affinity for never finishing anything :D Anywho... ignore the termies as they suck. It's the chappy and his paint scheme (shamelessly stolen from GW of course) that I'm attempting to show off. http://img181.imageshack.us/img181/7513/termiesvo8.th.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Kael Posted March 4, 2009 Share Posted March 4, 2009 Well my favorite is not really a model, its a squad. ;) Here you go. They are the first BT squad I have completed. Sorry about the image quality, it doesn't really show some of the highlights on some models. Some have flash and some don't. http://i400.photobucket.com/albums/pp87/Captain_Kael/DSC01212.jpg http://i400.photobucket.com/albums/pp87/Captain_Kael/DSC01215-1.jpg http://i400.photobucket.com/albums/pp87/Captain_Kael/DSC01216.jpg http://i400.photobucket.com/albums/pp87/Captain_Kael/DSC01214.jpg http://i400.photobucket.com/albums/pp87/Captain_Kael/DSC01213.jpg http://i400.photobucket.com/albums/pp87/Captain_Kael/DSC01211.jpg http://i400.photobucket.com/albums/pp87/Captain_Kael/DSC01209.jpg http://i400.photobucket.com/albums/pp87/Captain_Kael/DSC01202.jpg http://i400.photobucket.com/albums/pp87/Captain_Kael/DSC01200.jpg http://i400.photobucket.com/albums/pp87/Captain_Kael/DSC01199.jpg http://i400.photobucket.com/albums/pp87/Captain_Kael/DSC01198.jpg Captain Kael :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jubei124 Posted March 4, 2009 Share Posted March 4, 2009 This is my favorite model that I've painted so far, He still needs a little work though (script, highlightsand drilling out the stormbolter barrel to name a few things) but I think its just an awesome looking model overall. http://i581.photobucket.com/albums/ss254/jubei124/CIMG0958.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BTmadcow Posted March 4, 2009 Share Posted March 4, 2009 This model is my Marshal, and I have to say he is my favorite model because of the conversions I made on him. The body, right arm, and hammer are all part of the GamesDay 2008 miniature (chopped off the left hand from the hammer and put on a nice random skull and spike at the base). The shield was a chaos warrior shield I found in my bitz box so I just shaved off the chaos emblem and put the sword over it. The wings, which have to be my favorite part, I got in a bitz lot off ebay. Anyways sorry about the picture quality I know its not the greatest. http://i256.photobucket.com/albums/hh179/eednarb11/njion003.jpg http://i256.photobucket.com/albums/hh179/eednarb11/njion004.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother Mord Posted March 4, 2009 Author Share Posted March 4, 2009 Great stuff so far, keep it coming. I was very tempted to pick my Chaplain in Terminator armor. That is a very fantastic model. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Black Bear Posted March 4, 2009 Share Posted March 4, 2009 My Favorite is my Chaplain Azzael of the black flame and his three cenobytes. http://i207.photobucket.com/albums/bb311/BlackestBear/chaplainazzaelfront.jpg http://i207.photobucket.com/albums/bb311/BlackestBear/chaplainazzaelback.jpg http://i207.photobucket.com/albums/bb311/BlackestBear/chaplainholyhandgrenade.jpg http://i207.photobucket.com/albums/bb311/BlackestBear/standardagain.jpg I knew how I wanted him to look when I first began this hobby, and although he changed slightly from then, I am very happy with the way he looks. He is still the only character I ever came up with a back story for. Actually the backstory just came to me without much effort on my part. When I saw him I simply knew who he was and what everything on his armor meant to him. And he rocks in games. Although I still need to add text to the parchments.

FateSealer Posted March 6, 2009 Share Posted March 6, 2009 My favourite unit would be my assault squad, lead by a chaplain. There are 3 marines still in the works. I've converted and painted them to be an elite looking force (they are definitely Templars though), merciless and efficient killers. I like the idea of them charging into enemy lines recklessly before the main force and just wrecking everything up haha. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v247/ryanchen/Games/Warhammer/026.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Von Richthofen Posted March 7, 2009 Share Posted March 7, 2009 My favorite would have to be my Chaplain. I have alot of character models that I really love, but this guy takes the cake. I put alot more effort into converting him than any other model in the force, and he's really unique. Chaplain Marduk Eisengrim: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
