[JAG Templar]

Apologies if you have already seen this model but I’d be interested to get the community’s thoughts on this guy.

The version with the shield would look more appropriate as a Bladeguard.

[Marshal Reinhard]

With shield, its a blade guard marshal, without... maybe? I tend to avoid 3rd party models, but that does look pretty sweet.

[Medjugorje]

it looks amazing

[Sword Brother Adelard]

That's probably one of the best 3rd party Black Templars I've seen. 

 

Tempting...

Not to hijack this thread but this is another 3rd party templar model that I have come across via the 3DArtGuy patreon:

Hijack away! Have you seen any printed versions because the 3D renders look amazing.

 

Edit: or are these already printed? In which case amazing!

Okay, is it just me, or is that first image from the 3DArtGuy is totally based on the new Lion El'Jonson model?

 

Because I'm looking at mine and it's a near one-to-one recreation, just Templar.

Great finds! Is that Abbadon the Despoiler's severed head in the Champion's free hand?

Judging by the hacked off Talon of Horus lying at his feet - I'd say yes. Maybe it's even a reinterpretation of Sigismund?

Here's a YT painting vid that uses it:

First things first. Both of those models are a heaping helping of dopesauce. Freaking rad. The one with the shield could easily be an Indomitus Captain (Marshal)

 

"You will die as your weakling father died. Soulless. Honourless. Weeping. Ashamed."

[Bjorn Firewalker]

"You will die as your weakling father died. Soulless. Honourless. Weeping. Ashamed."

The last words Abaddon the Despoiler heard, before a triumphant Sigismund beheaded him, in this AU?

Other than the feet feeling too stubby, definitely a neat model.

I think thats fixable with greenstuff, you could give the front the mk III boot shape. I would use that as a basis for a primaris EC, looks a bit tall for a non mainline personality. If I wanted Sigi, I'll just buy the real one IMO.

What's wrong with this one?

 

Looks nearly identical to old EC (save for helmet), very similar pose, right loadout, better details than 3D printed stuff above (at least in 28 mm scale), I am just surprised people don't seem to like that model...

[BLACK BLΠFLY]

That Lt model is not suitable Imo unless you want to do some major kitbashing .

[Marshal Reinhard]

Eh, he's fine. You just gotta do some alterations, most notably the sword and adding a loincloth/tabard. You'd probably want to add some general ornamentation as well, but that's true of any Primaris EC conversion that isn't just a ready made 3rd party miniature.
