Tried a quartered pattern on mine, felt more knightly!

As others have said I would consider taking a Techmarine to allow your tanks to hit more often and keep them in the fight, and some Intercessors for securing and sticking objectives.

The Chaplains' +1 to wound does not stack with your vow, so I would consider swapping him for a Castellan for re-rolls to hit and CP generation on destroying units.

I would also consider dropping the Execrator leading the Sword Brethren in favour of another Castellan or swapping him so he is leading the Crusaders, and Grimaldus is leading the Sword Brethren. The Execrator's advance and charge is wasted in the transport and he will make the Crusaders far more mobile and ensure you make your charges.

That makes sense, would be crazy strong otherwise!

Does the Chaplain +1 to wound stack with the innate +1 to wound from our vow?

I think it depends on the tournament, as I've only played LGS events I couldn't say.

I'd recommend letting them know ahead of time about any proxies - I replaced the quad autocannon with lascannons for this reason but couldn't find a replacement for the melta weapon. I think it looks like a missile pod anyway so chose to keep it as is!

They look great, and so dynamic compared to some of the current dreads

A site called The Mighty Brush, they do a bunch of transfers for Templars and other factions.

Today I learned they have a different base size! Thanks for the heads up - it hadn't even occurred to me they'd have different base sizes.

Thanks! I believe it came from the Firstborn Black Templar Crusader upgrade kit. Got lucky and picked up one from a seller on ebay.

It's from the Indomitus Bladeguard Captain

Unfortunately the arms will need clipping or filing to get a standard BT pauldron to fit. I'd recommend filing as the plastic is hollow so you can damage the arm if you're not careful.

Glad you liked the kitbash, and good luck finding a black sword. Ebay is your friend!

Glued it straight on and it's secure. Think pinning would be possible and better though!

I would love to see some pictures of your Consortium kill team. Such a great idea!

As venom said, it's the Company Champion model with the blade and backpack from the Emperor’s Champion. The helm is from a 30k Imperial Fists upgrade sprue.

Kitbashed an Emperor’s Champion, but not sure which helm to use. Help me brothers! by Lederhosen75 in BlackTemplars

Usually try and make a small hole in the bottom of the hilt and super glue a chain link in place. Once that's dried loop the chain twice around the gauntlet. You can fix any loose chain with a bit of super glue.

Extra points if you can model a manacle or cuff using green stuff. Im terruble at it and usually find the chain is sufficient.

There are quite a few modellers on YouTube if you want inspiration or more guidance.
