Eberious Posted July 17, 2020 Share Posted July 17, 2020 You are most welcome Reinhard, it truly brings me the happy when I read this. So thank you. and as per your post looking forward to seeing it fully complete. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother Kraskor Posted July 17, 2020 Share Posted July 17, 2020 Beautiful conversion and paintjob - can't wait to see him finished. Particularly impressed by the freehand cross on the long purity seal, and I like how even his plasma pistol is bigger. In a world where both exist, I can imagine Firstborn Grimaldus asking Primaris Grimaldus "compensating for something are we?". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marshal Reinhard Posted July 19, 2020 Author Share Posted July 19, 2020 (edited) Might've just stolen my own thunder with the previous post, as he's done now, and there might just not be too many noticeable differences since last time. Easiest to spot among them is probably the skull on the base, which just had to be of an ork. Other than that, mostly details on the back, and highlight cleanup in general. Heck even spotted a few taking these photos. Beautiful conversion and paintjob - can't wait to see him finished. Particularly impressed by the freehand cross on the long purity seal, Ah, its actually a transfer. Have put a bit of red paint on it now so that i'll match the "text" scribbles better in tone. Also had to take a duo shot of him together with the Emperor's champion (whose helmet needs a lot of attention i realize, dangit) Next is a second Impulsor that I have kept putting off, then we might just be getting around to Indomitus after that.

Brother Kraskor Posted July 19, 2020 Share Posted July 19, 2020 Oops! Well, you've skillfully made it appear to be freehand then! The EC looks like he means business, the bulkier Armour of Faith perhaps revealing something about the Crusade's disposition. The war has been long and hard and they've had to be more ruthless and pragmatic even with their holiest warrior. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marshal Reinhard Posted July 30, 2020 Author Share Posted July 30, 2020 (edited) Very happy to be working on proper close combat troops again. First intercessor of the Indomitus box is... well he's 90% done. Fair bit of cleanup needed here and there, and maybe a transfer or two. Like with the Dark Imperium, I cut out and replaced both shoulder pads, replacing the large one with a Templar brethren one from forgeworld.

Bjorn Firewalker Posted July 30, 2020 Share Posted July 30, 2020 Excellent work on the Intercessor. I'm glad to see he bears a sword, as all Templars should. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eberious Posted July 30, 2020 Share Posted July 30, 2020 Very nice, might do my weapons on the CC guys red or yellow. I usually do good old black. But this time might just make the effort to splash some colour on them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marshal Reinhard Posted July 30, 2020 Author Share Posted July 30, 2020 Oh I never pretended I would go for red, though they are considered close support, so that would be the correct look. Sword Brother Adelard 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marshal Reinhard Posted August 2, 2020 Author Share Posted August 2, 2020 After finishing the intercessor, I quickly threw myself over a more complex model. He's very rough around the edges still, but it gives a pretty good idea of where he'll end up. Very fun to paint.

UtariOnzo Posted August 2, 2020 Share Posted August 2, 2020 The Indomitus box has really upped the Stonks level of Black Templar Primaris, great job especially with the roundel shield Marshal Reinhard 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marshal Reinhard Posted August 3, 2020 Author Share Posted August 3, 2020 A fair bit more polished now... except i keep spotting things to fix. Heck the camera helps me to spot things to fix. Still, I'd never get to upload anything if I stopped every timed I noticied something to fix. Anyway. I wanted to paint the judicar and chaplain next and... I'm at a loss on what to do with the Judicars head as I'm not too fond of his standard one. On the one hand i have this spare standard chaplain head, that could work. I also have some spare deathwing knight heads, that work pretty well due to their hoods, given that he'll be part of the coat squad. I just have a hard time deciding if I want to go with either head, or something else entirely. If I don't go with the left option, I can potentially use that head on the chaplain, even though I quite like his head (it just isn't a skull helm).

Urkh Posted August 3, 2020 Share Posted August 3, 2020 Let's play spot the differences between the two pics! I've noticed three so far, but I'll just say one. Let's see how keen eyed our brethren are! The script on the crusader* seal by the shoulder guard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let's see how keen eyed our brethren are! The script on the crusader* seal by the shoulder guard. I'l add the script on the purity and/ or crusader seals on the relic shield. Nice game of catch, kind of Concerning the Judiciar, i like the hood a lot, i guess it'd need a huge cross though, to not be confused with the first. Besides, i'm usually going with the old trope of chaplains never showing their face to any but the most high ranking brethren. Their helmet is adorned with HIS face after all. So maybe the skull helm is the better choice after all. Edited August 3, 2020 by Marshal Wolfhart Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sword Brother Adelard Posted August 3, 2020 Share Posted August 3, 2020 Are you good enough with Green Stuff to put a hood on the skull? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
painting.for.my.sanity Posted August 4, 2020 Share Posted August 4, 2020 I think I prefer the hood - given they're not full blown Chaplains yet, I like the idea of them looking menacing, but not having a skull helm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marshal Reinhard Posted August 6, 2020 Author Share Posted August 6, 2020 Well I decided where I would use the left option head,so here's a WIP of the Indomitus Chaplain: This bad boy I feel makes the fugly-ness of this particular chaplain head work straight off the bat.I'd originally used it on another chaplain I converted but swapped it out later, as it wasn't clicking with me... I do like the original head he came with, but that likely just means I'll find a use for it somewhere else, later. Are you good enough with Green Stuff to put a hood on the skull? Sadly, no. And its in use now anyway I think I prefer the hood - given they're not full blown Chaplains yet, I like the idea of them looking menacing, but not having a skull helm. This works for me as well lorewise, but at the same time the original head of Judicar is clearly a skull helm with a veil, and I'd like to not reduce the number of skull helms in my Reclusiam, so I'm likely just going to go with a different option entirely... But that'll be later, so shelving the Judicar for now while I work on other pieces from the Indomitus box.

Clearly different from the rest of the Reclusiam as they're not a full-blown Chaplain yet, maintains the masked aesthetic of the original model, and doesn't reduce the number of skull helms. I don't recall ever seeing any Reivers in this thread, so let me know if you need me to send you one. Sete 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll let you know if I want to take you up on that, for now I will mull the ideas and options over as I work on the rest of the models Edited August 6, 2020 by Reinhard painting.for.my.sanity 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
