Firepower Posted September 14, 2015 Share Posted September 14, 2015 Judging by the proportions of the character, I don't think that's a powerfist.

Firepower Posted September 15, 2015 Share Posted September 15, 2015 You ever see the art from 2nd Edition? Those were awkward proportions. That is just...stylized. :D Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/292060-rare-and-cool-templar-art/page/11/#findComment-4172465 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kastor Krieg Posted September 18, 2015 Author Share Posted September 18, 2015 OK, maybe not Templar (though this could be a Crusade allied House!), but so rare and cool, I thought I'd share.

Marshal Reinhard Posted September 25, 2015 Share Posted September 25, 2015 While technically they're "Deathwatch", the one paying his respects to the fallen Blood Angel comrade is clearly a Templar initiate.

Firepower Posted October 7, 2015 Share Posted October 7, 2015 (edited) I don't feel that modern 'cleaner' art really captures the grim gothic aesthetic of 40k, but there's no denying that piece has captured the aesthetic of Templars splendidly. Some of the ripe-for-plagiarism designs in there make me ache over my lack of sculpting skills.

Metic Posted October 7, 2015 Share Posted October 7, 2015 (edited) I really like the white/crossed exhaust vents on the packs. I might have to steal that idea and put it some where in my own crusade.

rye0006 Posted January 31, 2016 Share Posted January 31, 2016 Some of my mates went to the London comicon last year and had a 'saw this and thought of you' moment. Awesome Templar art.

Sete Posted February 13, 2016 Share Posted February 13, 2016 (edited) Not the right place but, in the Emperor Expects, Templars still hate psykers, Marshall is confirmed to be same status as chapter master, and castelan uses red helmet.

Brother Talon Posted February 23, 2016 Share Posted February 23, 2016 Seems like "Militus Unicae Lucis"... Horribly botched, loose translation and guesswork going on... but Militant Unique Light.

Honda Posted February 23, 2016 Share Posted February 23, 2016 "Even in death I grind hand rails and 360 kick flip." any one have a translation for the script either? google yields nothing. I'd buy that. @Ace: How about something traditional like "No Pity. No Remore. No Fear" or "Accept Any Challenge". I'm thinking it should be something iconic that everyone else would identify with us. Also, "BURN THEM ALL!" works for me. :) Actually, I just thought about this, but what about taking the Black Templars script and moving it into that space? Increase the size of the font so that it's something like: <maltese cross> Black Templars Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/292060-rare-and-cool-templar-art/page/11/#findComment-4316219 Share on other sites More sharing options...

AlmightyWalrus Posted February 23, 2016 Share Posted February 23, 2016 Seems like "Militus Unicae Lucis"... Horribly botched, loose translation and guesswork going on... but Militant Unique Light. Possibly twisted to Divine Military Light? Gave it a shot, anyway. Disclaimer: I have a very rudimentary knowledge of latin that I've sort of picked up here and there, so I'm probably going to mess up. I'd presume that it'd be "Soldier of the Unique Light", i.e. the Emperor's Angel of Death. "Lucis" definitely is the genetive singular of "Lux", meaning light. "Unicae" is, presuming I didn't screw my grammar up, the the feminine dative form (as "lux" is a feminine word) of "unicum", meaning "unique", "sole", "single" (duh). "Militus" should probably be "miles", meaning "soldier". The phrase thus reconstructed would be "Miles unicae lucis", or "Soldier of the Unique/Sole/Single Light". C.f. "There is Only the Emperor".

Kastor Krieg Posted February 23, 2016 Author Share Posted February 23, 2016 I'd go even a bit looser for a literal meaning of "one who fights in the name of the Only Light", as in source of Astronomican, Him on the Golden Throne.
