Hi Dakka, I have already started a thread before on my 10,000pts+ Templar army that i am currently working on. I thought id wack a new thread up i the correct place being the painting showcase area and with hat ive taken some new photos of my templar that ive painted so far including a section of initiates that havent been shown yet.

If you can keep the comments flyin on ideas for conversion and stuff that would be cool, im actually very interested to hear if anybody has got some good ideas on Neophyte conversions...Peace out.

First up the Marshall for Fighting Company Turantulas. Youve all seen him b4 but beter pics now, hopefully to your likeng its the best i reckon my camera can do.

Lazarus

shweet

Next is the Castellans tha have already been posted. I havent made the third Castellan yet as im trying to come up with somethin awesome with a hood and ties in with the marshal above....Ideas anyone?

Anyways heres the other two FC Castellans not named yet.

Next is my Emperors champion, i call him diarteas.

You've got some lovely Templars and great talent.

I notice the use of St Celestine's cloak on that Champion.

Keep up the good work.

Thanks very much and yeah i know the capes being used alot these days but it doesnt stop it from being the coolest thing you could do to an emperors champion. Thanks again

Next the big Venerable Dread and im waiting on a defiler parts from a mate to fatten the legs alittle.

a couple of closeup pics of my first painted assualt crusaders. Theres an apothecary to jion them next week.

last for now is my first terminator that ive painted, First of many. Im currently in the middle of converting and painting the other four for the squad, This squad along with 3 more will be the only ones without sword brethren robes and hoods.

I also finished a squad of Initiates today but i wasnt ganna show them till i finished Neophytes to go withem but screw it. First pic is my guys and second is a pic i found on the web of some IG guys which im ganna base my Neophytes off

A 10,000+ points army painted to this excellent standard is simply too mind blowing for me! Keep it up!

These are amazing, I can't wait to see what's next!

Really nice emperors champion, you've made a great straight off model an even greater one.

That's a nice Emperor's Champion. Good painting too!

My thoughts exactly

I love these!!!! They are simple in their look (although im sure they are far from it in creation) and that's what is so wonderful about them. Nothing looks forced to look awesome! They just ARE. I especially love the initiate holding his helmet and with the banner and the assault guy with two chainswords (he REALLY wants to kill stuff i guess haha).

AWESOME!!!

The more Black Templar i see, the more I want to have an army of em! I may just be a convert yet! haha. They always were my favorite chapter besides Dark Angels (to be honest, they are tied haha).

thanks alot Varden V2 for the comments, im not quite sure on which initiate your Talking about holding the helmet...theres one about to throw a holy orb of Antioch that might be what you mean? Anyho thanks again for your Kind words.

Interesting to search for neophytes out of the box. Certainly, that is the way to go, instead of taking the obvious scout models. Scouts, BTs don't even have scouts... Superb and well thought out plan there thedevilgunner.

im not to hot on templars but these are the best ones ive ever seen

especially the converted lord marshal

great work

As promised the next termi finished, looks exactly how i wanted it to, in fact im ganna be doing alot more weapons on chains coz it turned out so good.

Let me know what you think dakka.

thanks alot Varden V2 for the comments, im not quite sure on which initiate your Talking about holding the helmet...theres one about to throw a holy orb of Antioch that might be what you mean? Anyho thanks again for your Kind words.

Oh, you are right. Doi! It is a holy hand grenade (first though shalt count to three, no more, no less ). I was also talking about the guy with the mustache and the banner. It looked like a hand with a helmet at first glance. I see it as a power fist now? The image I am getting is a ittle out of focus there. ANYWHO, it looks awesome and I love the facial hair haha.

and in terms of that new terminator i say awesome! 0.o I love the red checkered pattern. Very medieval and knightly. I too wonder why nobody uses as many chain weapons such as flails, maces, etc for Black Templar. They are so knightly haha. Awesome stuff!

-VardenV2

While I love them all, the Champion really does stand out in my eyes! He's beautiful!

Now THAT'S awesome!

wow thats a fething sweet looking army. On average how much time do you spend painting each model?

Those are pretty spectacular figures thedevilgunner. That venerable dread is particularly fantastic.

thanks guys for your comments and im so with you VardenV2 there should be heaps more chain weapons for BT maybe they might release some in the next codex update.

An answer on your question ironsilence on average a group of three initiates will take 5 hours, The Lord marshall took 11 hrs, the Castellans 4 hrs, the champion about 14hrs bitch to paint that one, and the first terminator took 8hrs, the second terminator only 6hrs coz i took away the grey shading stages on the black armour.

...
Hello Mr Awesome how are you?
Seriously awesome work.
Keep going.

HAHA thanks i will...

Another quick one, i was looking through some pictures for my next terminator build and found that i just had to have some marnius calgar looking weaponry on my Lord Marshall so here it is my fix to the model only took 15 mins and his now even more kickass but i think not to overdone.

I am crying as I see this amazing paint job.

No not really, but that models is ''ACE".

I'm a bit of a stickler for blood, but I feel that there should be more of a splatter effect on the mace.

Anyway, these are some of the best models I have seen. Keep up the good work.

They look amazing. Really nice chain mace on the last termi....Interesting use of a bare head in the dreadnought (which looks too top-heavy right now...could just be picture angle) and I'm not sure it works...really nice painting though....

That's some fantastic modelling and painting you've done there, very unique.

One suggestion I would make is perhaps look into using Tamiya clear red and Tamiya smoke mixed together for your blood effects. It's so much better than flat red paint which to my mind doesn't fit the rest of the great work you've done.

amazing work!!! great conversions as well.

Astounding, love the aspergillum guy the most, he oozes menace and character.

thanks for the comments guys and ile definetly try that idea with the Tamiya paints for the blood.

I'm blinded by the epicness

If you dont mind me asking how did you the chain weapon?

These are actually amazing.

Very fookin' cool. Love the red and white helmet.

Marines with flails rock. Thumbs up.

got tired of painting today so i made this dude hes something like what im after for the sword brethren terimnators my army will have. The idea behind this guy is that hes jumped up over the rise and is shooting a something that hes about to put his fist through note the draw back of his power fist arm,the robe is all green stuff and i made the rope holding it on to his armour out of very thin steel wire.

Second picture is a set of objective point markers.

I really like the objective markers. They look like the burial place of one of the Templar warriors....
Something about the termi doesn't look right, other angles may help with that though.

Imp. Monkey

I agree with IM on the objectives. Really nice. Not sure about the termie but then it might just be the camera angle.

They are all very kickass!

Freaking Mind blowing!

More angles on the termi wold be great. The objectives are stunning.

Beautiful templars man.

heres some more angles on the sword brethren termi

here is the next next termi i am painting should be finished tomorrow, just keeping you guys updated.

I'm still not sure about the flying terminator, something just doesn't sit right about his position...
This next one looks really cool though!

Imp. Monkey

just trialing something new im actually not so sure of it my self thats why i posted it,thanks anyways Imp monkey

Are you painting the rest of the Space Hulk termies as well?
Can't wait to see Zael and Claudio

these models are badass!

Concerning the jumping terminator. I like the jumping pose very much. I've looked a bit more at it and I think the unknown "disturbance in the force" might be about the legs. It looks like the termi is standing in mid air. You might want to try to stretch one leg, and maybe lift the other knee a bit. I've done something similar with my shrikes ( http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/305797.page ) if you want some ideas. The tabard might be flapping in a odd direction too? I don't know, but the front view/power fist pose make it look like it's jumping in the direction of the gun, but from the back the tabard make it look like it's jumping toward the left (seen from behind), which make the draw back of the fist a bit weird, weird as is "he's jumping to the left, wanting to hit something on the right with his left fist", if you follow me.

here is the third Terminator, and no there not all ganna be space hulk Termis i just liked this one coz of the tyranid head. Ile be painting my objective markers tomorrow so ile post them up when im done,hope you like.

if anyone kows how to get a good stringy blood and guts effect could you please let me know as thats all ive gotta really do to this bloke to make him look more kickass.

Beautiful work devilgunner! The way you treat the armor really makes the red and white jump out. Nice!

Truly awesome

Fantastic conversions to really pull together a cohesive Templars army. There was once a time where Templar armies were everywhere and unfortunately, they were a sea of black with white shoulderpads. Great to see a Templar army so well executed. Thanks for posting.

The best way I've found to do a "stringy blood and guts effect" is to glue small pieces of thin fishing line, about 5 - 15 mm from the weapons edge. Then dribble some of the glue down the fishing line so it formes a dropplet at the end. then mix some nice blood paint (I use a gloss engine red myself) with some everyday beach sand (not too much, a little go's a long way). Paint the sand/blood mix onto the dried fishing line and your done. easy to do and looks fantastic when your through.

Interesting! Do you have any examples?

Wow i love the red and white pattern on the helmets great work!

Amazing models, great work.

Holy crap that is awesome. O.O

Thanks for the tips sub-zero i will have to give that a go.

thedevilgunner wrote:Thanks for the tips sub-zero i will have to give that a go.

No prob, post some pics when your done.

Thats amazing work. I realy love the inlays and scroll work on the Terminator Lord.

So much awesome in this thread. Stand out is the termi with the ball on chain. Love how you've got the blood trailing back as if he's just mashed something in front of him. (Though I have to second what Natorum said about Tamiya clear red).

Outstanding!

Keep it up.

wow, i just found your thread. I love the modeling you've done. The terminator with the chain/flail conversion is awesome. I look forward to more!

holy hell IceAngel 20K of blood angel ,i wanna c that seriously thats kick ass....i dream to have that many SM. Thanks for your comments to.

As a fellow Black Templars player, all I can say is that you are my new God.

thedevilgunner wrote:holy hell IceAngel 20K of blood angel ,i wanna c that seriously thats kick ass....i dream to have that many SM. Thanks for your comments to.

check out my gallery and you'll see an old picture of about 15k of it, but believe me i'd rather have higher quality models such as yours before ever having the 20k worth. It's a huge pain to have repaint them all, lol.

i seen your stuff iceangel and i still reckon thats awesome and the paint works not to bad, you did choose really hard colours ie white, so the quality is still definitly there.

The amount of awsome in this thread is like fangourasly grand!

Wow, these models are beautiful dude. Keep em coming!

been busy lately but ive managed to just finish a assault marine for my second squad im also already half way done on another to,it should be finished wendsday.

This guy took 5 hours which is a bit longer than usual but i was experimenting with some new yellow and brown paints to get the gold effect.

Still as lovely as ever. Why do you have to be so damn good? Make the rest of us look like crap...

Wow thats really impressive dude, where did you get the parts for this guy? Is it Foreworld or a lot of green stuff?

its originally a one off made by scibor and a whole lot of green stuff.

Nice work mate, there's a whole lot of win going on with this army. I feel so innadequate :.( lol

your stuff rocks in particular the lord marshall and the termie with the ball n chain.

Having just finished Helsreach I'm hoping to see a great kit bashed Reclusiarch soon

Excellent work/conversions. Those objective markers are superb. The marshall is outstanding, you can feel the authority pouring off that mini
Looking forward to seeing more!

P.S. Makes me want to strip down all my minis and go back to BT!

Hey guys as a quick update to what ive been doin...i finished a few more minis over the past two weeks to play in a local tourni which was 1000pts.

In the tourni i played the army as tainted BT and used chaos rules, which is why i went out and finished a vrok deamon to be my GD in the army take note of the BT symbol with the chaos symbol bloodead over it on the deamon robe.

Second photo is the last of the termis for my first squad and a melta gun dude.

Awesome models,really liked the Champion.

Btw how did you make that Daemon?
It looks seriously epic.

To add to my last these are the next pieces im workin on. as theres another tourni comin up in march thats 1500pts and i wanna play the army as normal BT ive gotta get Helbrecht and the tech marine biker done aswell as these as there in the army list.

the deamons straight from ultraforge.i worn you if you want one that you must wash it with some warm water before you do anything as the resin has a thick glaze film over it but aother than that one of the best minis ive ever seen in the quality and pose and sheer size.

For the win!

Hey Dev, just wondered where you got the skulls on the razorbacks come from? I'm starting a small doom legion force and the look like they'd be good for the chapter badge.

Looks nice, not sure about the missile on the Heavy flamer termi, and anyway if you are using it as a cyclone then its not pratical. Bad armour save roll and you've lost both the HF and the CML. plus he can only fire one...

As for the melas gun dude, the BT symbol on his face doesn't look quite as neat as your normal work...otherwise really nice stuff.

Wow, wow wow wow. I am absolutely loving this Black Templars army. I am in true awe! Your Lord Marshal isn't over the top, he is on the perfect level on the scale

the skulls are from non other than forge world and about the face i was alittle stung for time for the tourniment so these two were alittle rushed,his face is better now though. Been bunkering down through cat 5 cyclone at the moment so no updates probs for the next two weeks till i get gak sorted here.

thanks for your comments gents.

You have done an amazing job mate your theme, painting, posing n everything looks damn great! I enjoyed it for good

Sweet stuff there, man.

hey guys ben awhile since the last update but anyways here it is. This model is going to be my high marshall and i am also currently painting his command squad which made up of sword brehren and some bit bashed guys, all in yellow armour.

Hope you like

wow stunning..

Yellow? now hold yer horses there...that don't sound like a black templar!! looks good though

Simpley amazing

wow these guys are ooomasing!!! I whish I could paint lke that.Alos good use of AOBR sarge into a aussalt marine and that space hulk converted termiei!that high arshal is probbly the best guy apartrom the first guy you posted up!

thanks for the replies guys and as for the yellow im making some fluff on the army for a tourni that has the high marshall and others originating from the imperial fists and being promoted to the veteran chapter. Hence the yellow and not black.

Sort of building the army off a very near post heresy timed theme when the BT chapter was first founded. That and i think the yellow in the command squads looks quite good and is very easy to tell between.

Wow man, your work is amazing. each model looks well together, and yet it stands out on its own.


I know you were looking for an idea on doing gore effects. The January 2011 issue of No Quarter Magazine (privateer press's magazine) has tutorials on adding bruises, gunshot wounds to flesh, and how to do drool (they also said blood droplets work well too). I would give it a gander and see if you like it.

Great stuff here! I love your painting style, it's not too over the top but looks excellent with each mini having their own individual themed feel to them, the red and white accents are spot on for the way you paint too! i'll be keeping an eye or two out to see more of you work!

Kick ass figures, maybe enough to get a golden demon.

thanks for the tips alfndrate, im always looking to better my self and the minis i paint. as for the GD thing maybe alittle work still to go, i havent even really dived into the weaher and battle damage effects yet so well see.

Holy crap that terminator with the ball and chain is awesome.

Awesome

The templars look fantastic so far. Nice colors, details, and paint work.

Really great looking job. I LOVE the red and white checkers!

Your BT look awesome! On a side note, your emperor's champion and marines with the BT symbol on their faces remind me of todd mcfarlane's spawn

Wow everything looks awsome man well done!!!!!!!!!

loving the use of the Scibor models, they are such beautiful things. Also the Termie with ball and chain is inspired, how are you the first person to have done that and done it so well.

Awesome painting! Great work!

Looking forwad to updates ,these don't need 1 golden deamon these need 50,000 golden demans!!!

@thedevilgunner

the individual figs are outstanding and really show the care and love you put into the army

which makes the plainness of the tanks standout in a not so good way

i may be missing a lot from the figs but with every fig you have being so ornate so far your tanks just seem so plain

awesome work on the figs, tanks need more love

Funny you say that Bakerofish, i ws actually stuffing around with my rhinos the other day and i thought id build one up to something i had seen on youtube awhile back by BTP.

Ive changed it alittle and there is still green stuff and paint to go but i think it will do.

Tell us what you think

That...

Is utterly beautiful and badass.

@devilgunner

lol. i said the tanks needed some love

you just went and had sex with it

awesome!

Me want uapdates nowwwww!(Becuse this is so cool)!!!

Mr. Devil this is really some piece of art you are creating! I sincerely hope that i will be able to see a full scale of your amazing Black Templars some day ( Of Course on pictures )

Keep up the great work! And pretty much love all your figures!

Really nice stuff dude! I love how you make all of your minis very individual yet they all tie together well. I love your termies and can't wait to see the High Marshall with his guard.

Your army is simply amazing, I am jealous of your painting skills, I wish I could paint as good as you do.

This is incredible work, hats off to you sir.

I would be honored to have my @$$ handed to me by that army. Well done sir.

p.s. I love the termi with the HK missile on his back. It's got alot of

The tank would look better if it were a platform for a chaplin or commander (much like the Fortress of Arrogance, y'know...Yarrick's big tank pulpit) I'm not sure about the lascannon mount...

all the armement are magnatized so it can be a rhino, predator, vindicator or Razorback so it could be a platform as you were after, thanks for the comments guys.

Very nice work on everything so far. Extremely jealous of your work. Cant wait to see everything together when its done.

quick update on my army, ive got into full swing with the command squad as i have a 1500 pts tourni in a couple of days and i need to finish quite a few models for it so expect a few updates in the upcoming days.

For the objective markers i made these earlier and now have finished the paint work, there supposed to be the war graves of the fallen.

And the apothecary with jump pack that i made quite awhile ago and never got round to painting, well here it is hope you like.

first couple of command squad guys to match the marshall in yellow

Amazing stuff thedevilgunner. Simply amazing. You have outstanding skills.

I really like the color chosen for your command squad. I've always been a fan of personalizing armor to pick out important figures/squads, and that is a perfect implementation of it. The yellow doesn't look out of place at all, and the way the cloaks and robes pull the models back into the army makes them really fit. Great work!

Oh man these are all really impressive.

Awesome looking models : )

more updates fellas, some pics of the finished command sqaud with the marshall.

Also Helbrecht with only minor touchups on his leg and back pack to do.

And a model i made as a counts as captain Shrike.

Vehicle yet to come.

These look brutal. Nice.
Can we get a group shot?

im ganna do a group shot in a couple of weeks when i can get my hands on my mates camera which is way better than mine.

Nice, that Marshall is the shiznitobamzipsnapsack!

wow nice paint job on all of thoses I espalicy like the different coulor sceam on them too!

these are the best black templars ive ever seen.

I just have to say it was incredibly clever to combine Fantasy Warriors of Chaos and Space Marines to get your Neophytes. Outstanding work!

I'm about to start a Black Templar army, and I think that just might be the path I take. I also have a massive amount of leftover Bretonnian bits. I think a combination between the two would look pretty dynamic. Curse this afghanistanish country, I want to get back to modeling >_<

not a fan of the long legged dreadnoughts that look like mini-titans but the everything else is exceptionally well-done

black templar wrote:these are the best black templars ive ever seen.

I have to agree

How long have you been painting? They really look stunning

Amazing!

i love your work man! all of the wolfy bits added in are good to see.

Wow incredible thanks for posting. Close ups of the leader of the command squad would be appreciated!

I love the new stuff you have.

My mind has exploded from the awesomeness of these models.

I really like your painting style, you have plenty awsesome ideas and you catch the Templar/Knight sprit very well.

I really dont like the Scribor Templar, I just think he doesnt fiz.
I would remove more hair from the Space Wolves and I dont think the Dread should have a bare and fine head and so much weapons.

I am not fan of Servoarmour helmets on Terminator Armour either.

That Ravenwing Techmarine Helmet is really a fine idea for an Apothecarius.

Brutius and that Skull Temple Razorback are over the top, just to much, too large. I mean that axe is impossible to wield and just looks out of scale.

Really awesome work. Keep it up!

Fantastic looking work, your whites are crisp and they all give off the feeling of epicness that is the black Templar.

finally finishing off my tanks, heres the first razorback the next will be up on monday.

You guys also wanted a group shot of them, this was taken at a tourni a month ago(no yellow guys sorry). Another will be taken of the army as i now sits at 2000pts at the next tourni that im heading off to in two weeks.

Bookmarked and Favourited as my favourite army ever.
I mean just wow.... Bravo

this army is pretty wang slangin'. This looks like the kind of army that brings in new players.

Funny you say that Bakerofish, i ws actually stuffing around with my rhinos the other day and i thought id build one up to something i had seen on youtube awhile back by BTP.

Ive changed it alittle and there is still green stuff and paint to go but i think it will do.

Tell us what you think

Question for thedevilgunner... What pack/model are the extra bits from? I'm planing a Landraider conversion (In a few months) and its just what i need for some of the decor.

Swwweeet looking BT's, love the Marshal and Champ.

hey mate i used the GW basilica administratum box, ile post up the tank above all painted later today.

Sweet!Nice updates!

heres the other razorback i said id put up today, some more little details still to do but for now im happy with it.

loving the post man. the templars looks amazing. realy want to do my army now lol hurry up new codex!!!!!!!!

Awesome army, you have here !

Great ideas and very cool conversions and painting. That's really top class.

I love your converted rhino/razorback. Always said that BT shared so much imagery with SoB

Congratulations on your fantastic work !

Great job on all the models man! Keep posting please they are mind blowing to see

I thought my BT were cool, but ummmmmm they have nothing on yours.

Great job man

More great updates!

another update ive changed my marshall to be more WYSIWYG for the upcoming tournis in the next few weeks so ive replaced his bolter on the fist to be a chainfist and the other arm no longer has a sword and now holds a storm bolter.

Let us know if you guys like the changes i think his pose is still quite nice with the changes, and id prefer this as i now can use him in a game and not just have him on a shelf lookin good.

He looks great.

I really hope you tell us how you did that ball and chain weapon, that thing is probably the most unique idea I've seen done for the BT.

Looks great, but the eyes look a bit... cat-ish. just a pet-peeve of mine, otherwise, cool stuff!

its just the photo on the eyes his got proper pupils and stuff, on the chain weapon i just drilled a hole through the fist and then with a pin attached to an end of chain threaded it through the hole in the fist and then wrapped it from there. i litey smeared super glue on the rest of the chain to harden the shape coming off the ball.

devilgunner.......I think I need new underpants

Maybe it has been asked,
How do you paint so fast? and How do you get your white to look so clean?

P3 white its awesome and also i undercoat all areas first with vellajo sky grey.

Here is the first land raider that ive done in a while, this will be the basic version with the command LR to have i big temple on top with coffins of fallen High Marshalls on top. Still yet to do weather and damage effects but its good enough for the tourni tomorrow, ive still yet to do 7 marines tonight so im not ganna stuff around with that stuff yet.

epic looking LR
love the freehanding

I'm loving most of the models on this thread. Very well executed. Especially that Lazarus model on the first page. He's great.

just un updtae im taking these guys down as a 1750 BA list called the templars sanguine, ive painted up a librarian for the tourni and made a display board. The boards a bit rough but ile put some patches of grass and do some lighter dry brushing on areas and itll look a treat.

im kind of liking that libby great job!

How the heck does anyone paint a 10,000 point army to this standard? Those look incredible.

Amazing work on the modelling and the painting. All of the Marines look excellent.

The vehicles are quite nice as well... except for the Razorback. It looks ridiculous, mounting a weapon on a platform that denies LOS to itself.

The concept will work on a Rhino and Vindi, perhaps on a LR since only upgrade weapons and sensors will sit above the "platform" of the vehicles top hull.

Please, rethink the Razorback.

Everything else looks great.

I love these. Especially that Librarian. Nice work with the razorwire on the base.

JUst went through the entire thread all of your work is mind blowing and great.

Awesome updates.

That must of been an sweet tormanant!

I looked at this thread probably 3 or 4 months ago, and I loved it. I only looked at it today after not doing any painting / modelling since the last time I saw this and it just ignited my passion to pick up a brush! Soon after though I realised my chaos black was all out, which never helps when painting Templars (instead I decided to get my drill out for some converting). I look forward to seeing more updates from this!

P.S: I really love your Land Raider and I think I will try something similar on mine!

This in absolutly amazing army, your painting and conversion skills are crazy

Wow those models look really good. Love the paintjob. Always wanted my templars to be painted up nicely and I think you have given me the inspiration I needed!

Wait...a BT Librarian? Did I miss something somewhere?

The templars are a really cool space marine chapter. Well painted.

That army is bloody wicked, love it

I actually like the way the dread has thinner legs then usual, although I'm normally no fan of the "stretching" of models.

well long time since I've posted on here but I'm picking up the hobby again and I've found myself a great Dorn model for my BT army. Here it is, painting will be getting underway soon.

These are incredible models.....but a BT Librarian?!? Thats a no-no sir.

[quoteObviously these are pre-heresy black templars]

this wasn't my intention at the start of this army but now that there is a great source of pre-heresy and heresy era models than i figured why not.

As for the librarian i don't have him anymore it was a model i did for a mate and i used for a comp and i played them as blood angels.

Id love a new BT Codex.

>_< Not the reaction I was expecting.... You're right, technically pre-heresy Black Templars would be Imperial Fists, but that's part of the joke. By saying you're playing "Pre-Heresy" Black Templars, you're playing an army that didn't exist until after the heresy. By adding in a librarian, you're playing a piece that doesn't exist within the fluff. I think Kronk's title still says, "Pre-Heresy Black Templar Librarian"

gorgeous models. Usually there isnt much detail to a templar army, but your details look fantastic. Nice work!

Exalted bud!

looking greate!!!!!!
