Hey Dakka,

To give you a little bit of background, I used to be into wargaming with my brother about a year ago and then took the year away from it for college. Sold my Tau, sold my Salamanders and packed my Skaven deep into the realm of chaos. Well about a month ago, one of my good friends who picked up the hobby fairly recently got me into it again. I retrieved my Skaven and made a friendly trade with a friendly gent off of Dakka. Now in my possession is a fairly large space marines army which comes pre-assembled and primed/painted. So my grand task set before me by the Emperor himself is to whip this lacklustre band of plastic into a disciplined force to be reckoned with, and so shall it be done. I will turn this army into a band of Black Templars and Dark Angels. I have not read to deep into the fluff, but so far I don't see a reason these two cant be battle brothers.

Now for some pictures.

My work in progress marines!

Came with some nice artillery.

I really like how these guys came, so I may leave them painted.

This poor lad is missing his arm. So I'm going to give him a complete overhaul and make him a "Librarian" Dreadnought (for in house) or a Venerable for out of house.

I haven't quite decided what I'm doing with this guy yet. But there is lots of room for creativity

Hey Dakkanaughts!

Update time , had a bit of time over the last week or so. So I did a little bit of kitbashing (very minor) and tried to spice up some of my guys. I also got around to picking the paint off my metal guys, and unfortunately I think this is as clean as I'll get them.

So without further adieu, here they are:

C&C welcome, but please be respective.

This will be the standard bearer for my Honour Guard/Command Squad. I may swap the standard out for a Grey Knights one, just because it doesn

This is the regular company champion with just a Grey Knight head, I feel the Grey Knight heads look a lot more templarish. I might bitz shop a bunch of heads and theme the army like that.

I like the models pose on this one, I plan on maybe filling his hands with either a book or maybe some flames or a skull. Not sure yet.

[Thumb - IMG_5978.JPG]
This will probably be my company sergeant. I really like how his pose turned out. Kinda has a no-bull look to him.

My Jump Chaplain, I really like this model.

The BIg Boss. I hope I can do this model justice.

they are your models, so do what you want with them, that being said, in regards to fluff, the Dark Angels and Black Templars are not on the best of turns. the dark angels destroyed a black templar battle barge in order to prevent the BT from finding out about the fallen angels. currently the Black Templars don't know what happened to their ship, but they have their suspicions.
