Here's a Black Templar I've made. His Power fist arm fell off, so I've used it as an excuse to paint the spaces between his arm and body in greater detail. I'm not quite done with him, but it's always a good idea to take feed back before getting too far into something.

looks good but the paint is kinda thick

an army done this way would look realy nice, but don't get to carried away with color and keep your pallete limited.

edit: btw having a powerfist and poweraxe is kind of redundant, and only models with 2 or more wounds can use the holy orb of antioch.

I totally agree, and that is why he has a sheathed pistol on his left hip.

I didn't know about the rules for using the holy orb, however. But I figured that he is the commander and all, and if the commander doesn't get the holy hand grenade, er, uh, holy orb, nobody does.

Which brings me to another question; Does he look like a big-shot commander type? I mean, when you look at him do you think "woah, don't mess with that mother"?
Perhaps I should post another of him in a more complete form.

Any suggestions for the knee pads?

I think I see a Power Fist arm from the original boxed set of marines. Was it green or the softer yellowish plastic?
