Black Templar army

Hey guys,

Just wanted to share these two photo's of my Black Templar army.

I started painting on the normal troops then the Terminators and finally the Chaplain. As you can see I improved drasticly on highlighting my miniatures.

I did try blending on the Sergeant's sword, though trying to blend with GW paint is really hard because it dries up so fast. I might try Van Gogh oil based paint in the future because that doesn't dry up so fast.

Next up, two Black Templar Dreadnoughts from Forgeworld.

Im guessing highlighting black?

Get a very fine detail brush. Now make a 50:50 mix of Codex grey and Chaos black. Now start highlighting the armor, make sure the lines are very fine and straight.
The pieces that stick out more and catch more light, highlight those with Codex grey but don't entirely cover your first highlight. As last, the pieces of armor that stick out the most, finish that with a highlight of Fortress grey. Again don't completely cover up your first few highlights.

Of course you can also start out even darker for even more smooth highlighting, ie with 2:1 Chaos black, Codex Grey.

Hope this helps!

If you got a question, just fire away!

awesome imyself have trouble highlighting my BTs any pointers on how u did it? For the power fists on the termies, I did a simmilar thing but I painted them white cause I already had plenty of red details on them my rating 5/5
madbird-valiant (8 months ago):
Beautiful painting.
Damian (8 months ago):
@Nocturnal554 oh fair enough then, I guess I must not have read the description. I wasn't saying the red fists aren't nice, because they are.
BrassFox (8 months ago):
Very nice. *****
hthehidden (8 months ago):
I really like the termies
Nocturnal554 (8 months ago):
@Damian
What TheTemplar said,I wanted a bit more colour in my scheme so I decided for red because its matches so well with black and white.

@superslayer90
Yes, the building was coated in Shadow grey,then heavily drybrushed with Grey and White mixes.
superslayer90 (8 months ago):
Nice building on the background, how have you painted that blue, something with shadow grey?
TheTemplar (8 months ago):
@Damian
I disagree, I think the red power-fists look awesome and bring more variety to the colour scheme, very nice!
Damian (8 months ago):
Yeah don't think you should have painted the terminators fists red but apart from that very nice
TWhopples (8 months ago):
awesome painting 5/5
GlitchyFinnigan (8 months ago):
do Black Templar normally have red?
Nocturnal554 (8 months ago):
The black is GW Chaos black basecoat.

Highlighting; 1:1 mix Chaos black-Codex grey.
2:1 mix Chaos black-Codex grey.
Codex Grey > Fortress grey.
EraserRazor (8 months ago):
can i just ask how have you painted the black armour? it looks great
EraserRazor (8 months ago):
stunning no less then five stars.

The GW Cryptek model didn't blow me away. It was a decent model, but I didn't fancy having 5 of them in my Royal Court so I had a go at creating some alternative ones. Here's what I came up with.
