I loved this model when I first saw it, but I felt my buddy Legofingerz improved it even further with his excellent conversion, so I did what all good artists do when they see a great idea. I stole it.

Nice job! I was never a big fan of the small Crozius the original Primaris Chaplain has. The bigger one works wonders for the mini, as does the backpack! I love how such small changes can have such an impact on a model.

And I don't think I have to mention that I adore your paintjobs. Well, for good measure: Abso-fething-lutely bloody brilliant job, Luther! Especially the green robe, fantastic!

First and foremost, excellent painting job. I want you to know that I hate you because I don't have the talent, or at least the time to refine my talent and get on your level. My jealousy is at an all-time high.

Second, outstanding choice of Chapters. I'd be lying if I said my own personal chapter didn't take a few notes from the Raptors.

Another awesome miniature

My one complaint is that he's left his helmet behind entirely. It should be hanging off his belt or something. Otherwise, amazing conversion/paintjob.

Nice paint job, subtle conversion. Like it. That mate of yours is pretty good too isn’t he. Props all round.

I personally like the smaller crozarius on the original, it’s like a pimp cane. I only did a head swap on mine.

What a marvelous work of art Luther

The quality of the paintjob is probably your best work to date, and the way it ties in with the rest of the army is simply marvelous.

I can't wait for GW to release more Primais kits just to see what you do with them.

Your entire army looks amazing. Must be impresive see it on table.

Another time...great job.

Thank you very much for the comments, I am honoured!

Fantastic Primaris Chaplain!

The bitz You used really make Your model unique!

I like chaplain models and now I see that the Primaris Chaplain can be made to look different from the stock model.

I am going to have to round up bitz to create a Dark Angels Chaplain using the Primaris Chaplain as a base.

Thank You for the inspiration!

Thanks darkstar

It was Legofingerz that inspired my Chaplain, so that's awesome if my version inspires yours in turn!

Really like the head change on this Chaplain. Another great Raptor.

I've recently worked on a P. Chaplain.

Did you have any trouble with the right shoulderpad? Filing it down was a bit odd, it just never seemed to sit well or in a good position. Took a bit of work and Green Stuff to fix mine.

I didn’t do any filing or green stuff... did you use the same pads as me (from the Deathwatch Chaplain)?

Hello mate, cracking work! Sorry to be "that guy" but where did the head come from? I've been having a good old search around and can't seem to place it.

I wasnt aware of the Raptors before you started this series, now I have them at a super high standard thanks to your amazing work

Thanks very much for the comments!

Aw absolute hero! Thank you so much for the reply! I will go hunting now. I've been searching for these specific "chin strap" style bare heads, there seems to be some inconsistency between what head gear they're sculpted with across the range but the ones with the two ear pads (?!) and the chin strap element are just wonderful and that's exactly what I imagine them to have on under the helmet, so it can clip back on and is air tight. Also bloody amazing work on these and the banner guy too!

There is another head like that in the Shadowspear box, I just used it on my Phobos Lt!

Nice.

These are both fantastic - I especially dig the LT

Regrarding the chaplain - what mini did you grab the bigger weapon/stick from?

Thanks for the comments!

Hmm, to be honest I can't quite remember! I'm sure it's from another Chaplain model but I can't remember which one :(

Another great looking mini dude and thanks for the heads up (pun! ) I think I've got him, isn't he from the Intercessors box set? It's the sergeant's head no?



It's a great one for sure, he looks very serious yet slightly detached from the heat of battle, good expression for a leader type character (who's seen it all before on a hundred worlds).

I've noticed there seems to be some slight variations in the chin strap designs too, this guys got a cut away bit in his for example (it's playing havoc with my "design OCD" for space marine uniformity haha)

It's from the Reclusium Command Squad chaplain.
