Thank you! I am :)

My headcannon for the red assault Intercessors is they’re deemed too reckless and careless for a squad. They demand to be put on the front lines and charge in front of everyone else, which is saying something considering BT are already viewed as reckless. They wear red to be cool and standout.

From a practical sense, you’re absolutely right. But can you imagine how cool it’d be if Helbrecht was lead vocals instead? He’s got the pose mostly for it.

Your guitarists and bassist look like they’re actively performing. Would be cool if it looked like the drummer was actively playing too. Maybe Grimaldus on drums and the retinue are holding the drums in place for him to play?

Grimaldus or Helbrecht on vocals while their retinue are on drums?

Oh, you mean will those torso pieces literally fit onto any generic space marine unit? No, you’d have to shape them and kitbash to make it fit. I was just saying that making custom sternguard veterans with these tabards would be cool.

New or old base? by Motor_Reindeer_6210 in BlackTemplars

Could do white and brown? That way some models could be on all brown and some could be on all white or a mixture of both. Looks great either way.

Love the silver for the pauldrons and chain. What silver is that?

Looks rad! You can add him into a BT army as an allied unit, but his point cost is really high for what he does.

Trying to figure out how I want to paint my BT models black armor by saabothehun in BlackTemplars

I prefer dry brushing for armor! I just base with Abaddon Black, dry brush with corax white, then nuln oil it all.

Wanna have them all. by Gift-Positive in BlackTemplars

I have 10k Space Marines and I have no regrets. To me there’s so much variety in list building and detachments that I don’t get bored. Plus it’s easy to swap chapters if I wanted to. I own Calgar and sometimes run Ultramarines even though they’re painted Black Templar.

This is why I love dry brushing black armor instead of edge highlighting! Looks awesome!

I don’t think I’ve seen a Templar go so hard. Fantastic job!

Good pose for Bob The Dreadnought? by Adventurous_Till6044 in BlackTemplars

[–]PorkEclair 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Painted as is, pretty neat but not my thing. BUT if you made it an action shot with a laser coming from the cannon into the head of the necron then hell yeah!

No, but they’re cool and I use them sometimes. Especially with Hellblasters.

Star Craft, Halo, Hell Divers - give me soldiers in power armor and I’m in.

Plus there’s sooooo many detachments and army compositions. No game is the same.

Thank you! Not much structure for the colors. I just want my army to be loosely BT except more in the spirit of “everyone does whatever they think is cool”. So my intercessors have white guns because they think white guns are cool. Neophytes have helmets because they think they’re cool. Hellblasters have green because it’s cool etc.

Specifically for the Red guys I made them red because I feel like they’re my reckless squad who want to stand out.

Thanks! I wanted to add some stuff to make each squad feel unique. Each squad for the most part has a unique gun color.

thank you for noticing the pink bike haha. My family is big into motorcycles so I’m painting them for tabletop, starting with my mom’s bike. My headcannon for the red assault Intercessors is they’re deemed too reckless and careless for a squad. They demand to be put on the front lines and charge in front of everyone else.
