Just use blue!

So I have been back and forth trying to figure out my scheme for black Templar. I had eventually landed on this guy, but it just wasn't doing it for me. I couldn't quite figure out how to get some depth into black armour without it ending up just looking grey with black shadow.

Today I just drowned him in some drakenhof nightshade and I couldn't be happier. Really brings out the darker tones while keeping the highlight. But it also gives the model a much more menacing look which I feel fits the Templars so much better.

How could I Turn This Into A Marshall? Or Something Else?

I got this wolf priest because I’m trying to make a chaplain like the one this other guy made (I’m sorry I don’t know his username but a picture is attached.) I wanted the head to put on my blade guard ancient and I figured I could easily turn the rest of the priest into a marshal but I have no solid plans for him yet. Give me some cool ideas fellas.

Two more squads done

I've been painting toward the goal of having an army to play with my mates when 11th comes out. This week I've finished my Outriders and their Chaplain, and the first 5 minis for my Assault Intercessors. The Judiciar isn't done yet, but I figured I'd include it as a WiP.

My first black Templars list

This is my 1000 list for my favorite detachment Godhammer assault force. Is it good or should I change anything?

Marshall (Captain) in Terminator Armour Complete

I had a lot of fun with this one. I think a few little odd bits and Kit bashes can make all the difference. My Crux Terminatus set is coming along nicely. I also added a filthy iron warrior, one of Perturabo’s scum in the dirt where he belongs.

Wrathfull possession im BIG SAD

So with the new detachments one of them was WP, and what they hinted to was it gives inval 5 in shooing for Chaplin units.

So it sounds like they are redoing the grutmess one, which makes me really sad, it is my favourite detachment to run.
I have won 2 RTT with it, and I don’t want to bastian taskforce.
Having +2 m &+1 advance, was so funny, when advancing with a 20 man brick with an execrator, rolling the 6, and see them run 15 inch up the board, ready to charge.

I don’t know you all feel about it.

Also, If they want an other Chaplin detachment, then give Chaplin gramuldes, Chaplin keyword at least, so he can be used……. And also his FNP 5 💪

Sorry for the long chat.

Bless by the god emperor

How important are vehicles to BT army?

Everywhere I go I always see armies with vehicles. Being the fan of the knightly aesthetic, I simply don't want to paint any tanks, even dreadnoughts. I just don't like the models. Am I shooting myself to the knee?

My kit bash of the Helbrecht model…what if Sigismund came back and wasn’t actually killed.

Librarians in Black Templars

With the upcoming Armageddon box, and my friend who plays Orks, I really wanted to start a Black Templar army for narrative games

Black Templars have a ton of really awesome models with the unique battleline unit, unique Ancients, and my absolute favorite HQ model: The Emperor's Champion

But something is missing: The Librarian

It makes me incredibly sad that Black Templars have no Psykers whatsoever because I absolutely adore Librarians

I suppose: is there any loophole to running Librarians in BT, or am I SoL

Blood Angels would be my backup as they are the ones featured on the box, and they have quite a lot of Librarians in their ranks, but then I'm losing out on Crusader Squads, and Crusade Ancients, and the Emperor's Champion

What do you suppose I should do here

WIP first Black Templar

Been working on a test model trying to develop my recipe for my first 40K army. I plan on putting pigment powder on the legs, and maybe adding some chipping to the armour. C&C welcome

Marshal finished! What do you guys think?

The last guy in the sword brethren box didn’t look castellan enough in thought so I made him into a marshal instead. Now gives me an excuse to get the classic castellan next! Still working on my NMM it’s been fun learning!

Finished model!

Brothers! I have finished my Black Templar. This was a random style of black armor I found from Warhammer themselves. Please let know what you think.

I shall call Him Marshal Siegfried

He's more hands on with the Crusade's future leadership, by mentoring neophytes himself

I see Scout Squads in almost every Black Templars tournament list. Why is that, and how exactly do you use them effectively?

I'm new to the actually playing part of the hobby!

Son of Dorn

How would you guys feel about this veteran with an imperial fist tilt shield, in my head id like to think that hes either an ex imperial fist or hes honouring his founding chapter. How do you guys think and how lore accurate this is?
