rye0006 Posted November 12, 2017 Author Share Posted November 12, 2017 I have done various bits to my crusade over the previous months, but not posted anything as I've been having camera issues. Anyway, here are a couple of vanguard sword brethren with dual chainswords that I kit bashed yesterday. They'll be next up on the painting table along with a couple of our sword brethren models. I have also finished (bar applying decals) my 2nd stormtalon helicopter conversion.

Marshal van Trapp Posted November 12, 2017 Share Posted November 12, 2017 Omg are those the Lego single wing pieces? That's an amazing use for them I might have to steal that idea!

Sword Brother Adelard Posted November 14, 2017 Share Posted November 14, 2017 I've always wanted to make my StormTalon look like an Orca from Command and Conquer, someone has done a conversion of this online, but I don't think it works.: http://gravengames.co.uk/project-storm-orca/The issue for me is that round rotors don't look right on an imperial vehicle, the Imperium aren't renowned for their love of circles!

rye0006 Posted December 22, 2017 Author Share Posted December 22, 2017 I've had an idea to make a standard bearer (now chapter ancient apparently!) for the Domus Crusade for ages, but didn't have the parts to complete it. Well I haven't bought any models for around 6 months, so I thought I'd treat myself to buying the bits. So, I've been tinkering around this afternoon kitbashing... The head will be a helmetless stern-faced one, suitably grim. The thing I can't decide is what to do with the left arm - should he be pointing, firing a bolt pistol, firing a bolter, etc. I need some advice here, what do you think?

Brother Christopher Posted December 22, 2017 Share Posted December 22, 2017 Nice kitbash. The only thing I'm not a fan of us the hourglass. As for the left arm, I vote for a bolter.

Aegir_Einarsson Posted December 22, 2017 Share Posted December 22, 2017 I think firing bolt pistol would be best option:) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/305274-the-domus-crusade/page/3/#findComment-4966391 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marshal Wolfhart Posted December 22, 2017 Share Posted December 22, 2017 I actually dislike the two spikes pointing downwards on the "halo" on top, reminds me too much of chaos. And the twin tailed hammer on the backside of the standard would make a nice spot for a plain maltese cross... Otherwise a nice idea and i really like the portable relique, because what else would a crusader bring? :tu: Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/305274-the-domus-crusade/page/3/#findComment-4966463 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bjorn Firewalker Posted December 22, 2017 Share Posted December 22, 2017 The standard looks great, but what is it? The skeleton of an Emperor's Champion who gave his life so Imperial forces may claim victory, now mounted and displayed so even in death, he may continue encouraging Black Templars and Imperial allies to greater feats of valor?

rye0006 Posted March 2, 2018 Author Share Posted March 2, 2018 Decided to convert a terminator chaplain using the hq model from the Calth box set. I know it's the wrong firm of terminator armour, but I don't care - rule of cool. What do you guys think?

Marshal_Roujakis Posted March 3, 2018 Share Posted March 3, 2018 imho, terminator armor is terminator armor... even if he is on Cataphractii TDA, rule of cool trumps over basic principle of rules... good conversion btw.

Bjorn Firewalker Posted March 3, 2018 Share Posted March 3, 2018 The Chaplain looks promising. Is the weapon scratchbuilt? Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/305274-the-domus-crusade/page/3/#findComment-5024015 Share on other sites More sharing options...
rye0006 Posted March 3, 2018 Author Share Posted March 3, 2018 The Chaplain looks promising. Is the weapon scratchbuilt? It's the power axe from the Templars upgrade kit. I just cut off the axe head and glued on the cross piece from a different axe.

Firepower Posted March 3, 2018 Share Posted March 3, 2018 For the Ancient, I recommend his left hand be reverently holding a Holy Hand Grenade aloft.

rye0006 Posted July 29, 2018 Author Share Posted July 29, 2018 I know that it's slightly heretical for Templars, and I'm unlikely to field them very often in my Templars army (I'd intended to use them more with my inquisitors), but here are my sniper neophytes (minus some small decals for shoulder pads). I really don't like the sniper scout models, so I wanted something different - cue anvil industries. Really like these models and I enjoyed trying a camo pattern on their fatigues and armour. I wasn't originally going to paint them as Templars, but couldn't bring myself to paint another chapter.

Bjorn Firewalker Posted July 30, 2018 Share Posted July 30, 2018 The Neophyte snipers look great! I know that it's slightly heretical for Templars, and I'm unlikely to field them very often in my Templars army (I'd intended to use them more with my inquisitors), but here are my sniper neophytes (minus some small decals for shoulder pads). A proper Templar should focus on the ends instead of the means. Will sniping kill enemies of the Imperium? Will it corrupt the sons of Dorn and make them pawns of Chaos and/or xenos? If the answer to both questions is "no," then snipe away.

rye0006 Posted January 23, 2020 Author Share Posted January 23, 2020 2 quick builds from odd bits I had laying around - Neophyte sergeant ready to punch xenos/heretic face, and a sword brother because who doesn't like an angry Templar staring you down armed with lightning claws?

Brother Christopher Posted January 23, 2020 Share Posted January 23, 2020 It's great to see people still working on 'regular marines'. The Neophyte 'sarge' looks great. A real bad-. Also, the piece of detail on the SB's lightning claw seems interesting. It looks like an ornament from a power fist trimmed down to a shield or plate. Is it so?

Also, the piece of detail on the SB's lightning claw seems interesting. It looks like an ornament from a power fist trimmed down to a shield or plate. Is it so? It's part of the crotch plate from the centurions kit. When I made my assault centurions I wanted loincloths so cut the crotch plate away. With this lightning claw, it's actually a wolf guard one and I cut away the wolf skull on the back and therefore wanted to cover up the mess. I though an ornamental shield in the back of the fist might look quite cool.

Marshal Mattias Posted February 4, 2020 Share Posted February 4, 2020 These guys are looking great! I like your list; like my current efforts, it's great to see plenty of Original Templars hitting the field. I'm looking at a surprisingly similar list myself, and I'm relieved to know I'm not alone Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/305274-the-domus-crusade/page/3/#findComment-5472025 Share on other sites More sharing options...
rye0006 Posted June 20, 2020 Author Share Posted June 20, 2020 Starting work on a new project - a chaplain dreadnought. Love chaplains, love dreadnoughts, so what could be better than an awesome combination. I think I'm going to go to town on this model. (Just hope the new edition doesn't mess with the rules to make it pointless) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/305274-the-domus-crusade/page/3/#findComment-5545443 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Medjugorje Posted June 20, 2020 Share Posted June 20, 2020 Would love to see it but maybe the model does not get rules for this edition because FW didnt produce them Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/305274-the-domus-crusade/page/3/#findComment-5545463 Share on other sites More sharing options...
