Enzephalon Posted December 14, 2011 Share Posted December 14, 2011 Hi guys, Something new. I managed to finish this model. It's a Sanguinary priest in terminator armour for my WIP assault terminator squad. It's a conversion from a Space Hulk terminator and a few Grey Knight bits. He is completely wysiwyg as he is swinging a force weapon. I decided to go for a staff because it makes him look much more like I imagine a priest of the 40k millenium. Enjoy.... http://images.dakkadakka.com/gallery/2011/12/14/305121_md-.JPG http://images.dakkadakka.com/gallery/2011/12/14/305122_md-.JPG http://images.dakkadakka.com/gallery/2011/12/14/305123_md-.JPG Next to his power armoured little friend for size comparison: http://images.dakkadakka.com/gallery/2011/12/14/305124_md-.JPG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leonaides Posted December 14, 2011 Share Posted December 14, 2011 I hate to say it but he isnt WYSIWYG... Power fist is not an option for a Sang priest, nor is a force weapon. Which is a real shame because I do like the conversion you've done on him... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fivepointedstar Posted December 14, 2011 Share Posted December 14, 2011 Just say its a Power Weapon and your in the clear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The force weapon is a translation mishap. ^^ I allways get confused with the german names and the english counterparts. It's power weapon of course. ^^ Concerning the fist... You're right. I thought it wouldn't automatically count as a power fist when used with terminator armour. I hope my opponents will tolerate him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fivepointedstar Posted December 14, 2011 Share Posted December 14, 2011 To me, it looks like his left hand has a narciecium ( the sensor). and in his right hand is his staff of office, as a priest which is a PW. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nice... That's a good one. Would be easy to really convert it into a narthecium. Thanks man. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Morollan Posted December 15, 2011 Share Posted December 15, 2011 If you have the Space Hulk minis then you can always chop the power fist off and add a hand holding the grail. I used the Lorenzo figure and chopped off the storm bolter, replacing it with the grail. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I used the Lorenzo figure and chopped off the storm bolter, replacing it with the grail. Thank you for the input but I think it's kind of silly that the priests actually carry a grail in their hands. I know.... Corbulo has one too. But I do not like the idea of bringing an oversized cup to a battle, so my priests only get the little grail on top of their armour, as you can see. I guess I will stick with the narthecium conversion and the rule-of-cool argument. ^^ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I doubt anyone will have too much of an issue with your figure not being 100% WYSIWYG as long as it is clearly a Sanguinary Priest with a power weapon.

Mind sharing the pictures of your priest? Would love to see how he turned out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's too expensive to buy him for a sanguinary priest I probably only use in bigger games, which I do not play so often. ^^ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
