Black Templar Crusade Ancient

Joining my Black Templar army and toting a war banner of the Black Templars is this Crusading Ancient. He inspires his brethren to fight for their Emperor and shows the way, smiting foes with his super hot blade of smiting! 
Ineptus the Vexillifer!

A new model released last year specifically for my army, so of course I had to get one (what a sucker!). He was fun to do, though I did suffer a bout of 'analysis paralysis' on shield - with more than one chat with Reilly needed to get to there in the end!

Kept to the 4 colour "Zorn palette" to match the erst of my army

I also enjoyed hand writing all the prayer/inscriptions on both sides of the banner for extra 'drip'. I snuck a couple of decals int here also to keep it interesting


Submitted to the "Empire" Bonus Round of AHPC 16 here:

A little bit of OSL goes a long was and was fun to do!


The sum of my Black Templars modelling for the last 6 months now looks thus:
2 Crusading Squads, an Execrator, a Crusade Ancient and an Apothecary!


More Templars to come!
