Description
Given on how my artificer armour idea wasn’t going to work I decided to focus on converting terminator armour, I had already come up with some ideas on how I could do it with the legs being the only problem then I saw the micro art studio legs and everything fitted into place.I also used a pair of chapterhouse shoulder pads I had ordered during my night lords project out of curiosity and the Scibor Scarab Shield to replace the storm bolter plus a few other bits. I went with the power armoured helm because I prefer to the angular terminator version.
I was extremely pleased with the finished model not only does he look great but he’s massive to the point where he could be considered a true scale marine, just look at him next to the black reach marine. I’m now looking forward to seeing my squads towering over other models in close combat.
I was going to model tutelaries on the special weapon users but I think that would make the model a bit too high and therefore hard to transport, but I’ll wait till I’ve modelled the first Psycannon warrior to see if they needed.
Now I’ve just got to wait for the green stuff to dry and I can get started on the painting.

good conversion! But my inner fluff nazi dislikes the fact the torso doesn't ressemble a pre heresy terminators >.< still good job do you plan on making a complete squadron of these guys?

Well I plan to paint the lower half gold like the per-heresy terminator helmets: [link]
Please feel free to suggest an alternative thou.

well, when using that image as a reference, i suggest using regular terminator armor instead of the GK armor, use plasticard to get the mk8 look, and use [link] or [link] head with the skull filed off...
its just a suggestion though

I don't know man. It doesn't resemble a Pre-heresy Thousand Son terminator to me in any way at all. I think it would look far more fitting for the part with the back piece being that of a normal terminator and a more Pre-Heresy Thousand Son style helmet rather then a Grey Knight one.
