Blood Angels – Knights of the Blood Commander/Librarian WIP

Just so you all don’t think that I haven’t been doing any hobby activity I thought I’d give you an update on what I’ve been working on.

I have finished the second half of my first Assault Marines Squad with another 20 more to go until all my troops are complete for now. Also I have finshes the single barricades from the Aegis Defence Line which only took me about an hour for the 4 of them with multiple drybrushes.

But the latest figure that I am working on is a Terminator Commander/Librarian which I decided to go nuts using magnets and have the single figure to be able to have things swapped around to be the other one.

Now with this one I decided to use the Chaos Terminator Lord figure which I went to down taking off most of the Chaos icons but leaving some which helps put the question of which side do the Knights fit on.

He is going to have 2 different heads which will be the easy way to tell which character he is and also gives that extra element of modification that I wanted for him. Currently I have the Heads unpainted as I’m getting the body done first.

He has a scratch built Storm Shield which is something that I wanted to make bigger than any of the shields I had laying around. I used the spare Dreadnought Sarcophagus I had from the Ironclad Dreadnought and as well I had the front assault launchers from the same kit to make a more sturdy looking shield.

I have done no highlighting on the figure atm but it will be done very soon.

For when he’s in his commander mode he will have a Thunder Hammer as you can see below which was scratch built from  the Chaos Lord Power Axe, Tau Targeting Array one of the ends of a Rhino Dozer Blade and after seeing how Old School Terminator show us on his conversion for Chosen1’s Dreadnought I’ve taken his idea of having the front assault launchers from the Ironclad Dreadnought kit to give it a harsher end to it.

I still haven’t decided on the colours for the force weapon but I should have something come to mind over the next few days. If you have any thoughts leave them in the comments.

Anf for those wondering which I’m sure there is none, The Paint Pot I’m using to hold the figure on is Blood Angels Red so I do get the irony that I’m using it as a stand only!
