Interrogator Stobz Posted November 12, 2012 Share Posted November 12, 2012 From behind he looks a little 'Fallen'. Let me help him into this nice comfy chair in Cell 42.... Maybe he'll even get Gulf'd :) Nice model though ;) stobz Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/196588-stabbin-and-such-triumphant-at-last-2917/page/7/#findComment-3235877 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Firepower Posted November 12, 2012 Author Share Posted November 12, 2012 I like the Chaplain. Is the top of he crozius from a nemesis force stave? And where did you get the left pauldron? The Crozius is a force stave with the weaved bit by the fist cut out of both sides. The shoulder guard is from a Sanguinary Guard sprue. To be honest I'm thinking about replacing it with another one, but shaving off the emblem in the circle to make room for a cross. For a Templar, he seems a bit short on crosses to me. Then again, Jasper doesn't have many himself... From behind he looks a little 'Fallen'. Let me help him into this nice comfy chair in Cell 42.... If you don't like how he looks from behind, say it to his front. I'm sure he'll be totally understanding...we Templars are a cordial sort, after all. :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/196588-stabbin-and-such-triumphant-at-last-2917/page/7/#findComment-3235879 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Interrogator Stobz Posted November 12, 2012 Share Posted November 12, 2012 Heh heh, "cordial" but not overly tolerant, so I'm told. Love the choice of bits you've used regardless, the skeleton on the pack is very 'Chaplainish'. s Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/196588-stabbin-and-such-triumphant-at-last-2917/page/7/#findComment-3235884 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Love the choice of bits you've used regardless, the skeleton on the pack is very 'Chaplainish'. We're incredibly tolerant with people, once we get rid of the ones we don't approve of. :) Thanks much. I tried to get a skull on every piece of armor. Short of his right pauldron and arm, I succeeded.

Firepower Posted November 12, 2012 Author Share Posted November 12, 2012 So I couldn't help but think something was wrong with the Godhand. I meant for the entire arm to resemble a singular relic/weapon, but the pauldron was distinctly separate and 'wrong' against the fist. Plus the gold blended in with the bone of the wing too well. I realized it was a palette problem, and fixed it thusly: It was the red circle 'round the skull that broke up the shape, and I'm much happier now. Thank the Throne it was such a simple change. :P Blowing up images in photos always brings out the obsessive tendencies, and I can't help but go back and fix things. :) Even with this pic I see tiny little details that I will be fixing presently (the tiny bit of paint beneath the skull on the pauldron, for instance). The most annoying part is that damn chain- it's not a very good sculpt and it makes it damn near impossible for the paint to not look sloppy from one angle or another (particularly this one). :) But overall I think I got the effect I was going for now, and from the tip of the wings to the knuckles the Godhand looks like a proper relic now. :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/196588-stabbin-and-such-triumphant-at-last-2917/page/7/#findComment-3236491 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eberious Posted November 12, 2012 Share Posted November 12, 2012 Looking awesome FP, the change has indeed improved it. And I know what you mean, its like you've just finished painting and you took your time, then when photo time comes you see lots of little mistakes you just have to fix. I'm the same, hope to see more on a regular basis.

Firepower Posted April 6, 2013 Author Share Posted April 6, 2013 Wow, wasn't expecting to see this on the front page. I've had a handful of Templars half done on my desk for some time now. I just got tired of painting black and bone, and now I've got an airbrush and a DIY project taking up most of my interest. But those poor headless sods on my desk are getting sorry to look at so..hmm. Maybe some time soon. But generally, with a thread this old, it's better just to send a PM rather than dabble in Threadromancy.

Dark Scipio Posted April 6, 2013 Share Posted April 6, 2013 Why? Never understood that Threadromancy complaining. It only makes sense for threads that are not up to date (marketplace, old rules ...).

Krikey Posted April 7, 2013 Share Posted April 7, 2013 I, for one, am grateful for threadomancy. Without it, I probably wouldn't have seen these miniatures, having been inactive so long. Those are beautiful, Firepower. Nice freehand skills, too. I'd like to see what else you've produced since these. Even headless sods would be welcome. ~K Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/196588-stabbin-and-such-triumphant-at-last-2917/page/7/#findComment-3344565 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dark Scipio Posted August 18, 2013 Share Posted August 18, 2013 I just saw in antoher thread, that you stopped doing Templars because you ran out of things to build paint. However you dont even went for Assualtmarines, Dreads or Sword brothers. So how do I say it most polite?: Back to the workbench! ;) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/196588-stabbin-and-such-triumphant-at-last-2917/page/7/#findComment-3426833 Share on other sites More sharing options...
KBA Posted August 30, 2013 Share Posted August 30, 2013 Hey man, a while back I ordered a set of bolters from Forge World, and instead, they sent me Terminator Templar pads. I've found no use for 'em the past year, but figure you might. Want them?

Firepower Posted August 30, 2013 Author Share Posted August 30, 2013 Our own Venerable Deard Templar 14 also dropped the classic metal Veteran w/ Mace into my lap just a day or two ago out of the blue :D Now I got all this pressure to paint more Templars! I need to get off my duff and finish the pauldrons of these last 4 guys so I can greet the inbound Vet and new models with an empty, hungry workbench.

Honda Posted August 30, 2013 Share Posted August 30, 2013 I really like that chappie. I'm of the opinion that you can't have too many and now, we could even put a whole squad of them out there as Sternguard. Anyway, bravo.

Firepower Posted August 30, 2013 Author Share Posted August 30, 2013 Chaplains as Sternguard? Unfortunately, if current rumors are true, Brahm won't even be legal as a Chaplain. Their only CCW option is a Crozius. Anyway, if anyone's gonna be doing the Sterning, it'll be the Arrows. Let them do the trigger work. Templars are an assault centric army, and they always will be :P Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/196588-stabbin-and-such-triumphant-at-last-2917/page/7/#findComment-3441054 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Firepower Posted September 3, 2013 Author Share Posted September 3, 2013 (edited) After almost a year of hiatus. Blam. These poor shmucks have been on my desk all that time. They were so glad to be finished that they wouldn't even let me finish painting their bases' trims before taking pics. It also might have had something to do with my current lack of varnish.
