Blog Entries: 3     |  Lord Commander Erus of the Terraneus Praetor EDIT: New updated pics on page 2!!! Ok.. Wolfpack came bearing gifts yesterday. One of them being the metal Space Marine Terminator Chaplain blister. So, this thread will be updated as I begin the conversion and painting of my online persona... My question is... How should I set about converting, or should I even dare convert, what is already a tear jerking-ly beautiful model? I can't seem to find anything to add or change...

Blog Entries: 3 | Hmmm.. Rather than the skull laurel, i'll splice an aquilla and an undivided star to go up on the top under the halo... He's got a rosarius so no need to add that to the pommel... Maybe do some conversion to make on of the marks of castigation on each of the skulls, with the 13th (and I believe the most powerful) etched on his helm between the brow. I'll be leaving the skull helm in... Dans comment made me realize.. I HAVE NO HERALDRY!!!!

 erus, if you do decide to add some modifications to that chappy my advice is to make them small ones. as you said, it is a tasty mini already so all it would need is some personalisation at most.

| That's what I told him...and he spent thirty minutes at the dinner table trying to figure out where each change was gonna take place and the extent of that change...in the mean time he was holding access to the pizza boxes up...LMAO and yes Hairy...a tea party sounded like the perfect jump off point for my little scheme...as he will be occupied for weeks with this one simple step to my devious plan...so sitting down to a bit of tea and biscuits seemed only proper before we begin the next phase... after which I will make Masala Chai and we will have it with rottis and lime chutney...at which time we will begin the berrating phase of my plan and see if that does not motivate our friend to greater hieghts of achievement...

Blog Entries: 4 | Considering the arms can be replaced without much difficulty, there should be no trouble relacing those without taking away from the model as a whole, though the crozius arm is probably good to go.

Blog Entries: 4 | Well, compared to my chappy's crozius its downright modest... http://i22.photobucket.com/albums/b3...s/STP60515.jpg But not too hard to replace. The termie lord sorceror arm (missing the hand) or the usual assault termie shield arms are good for crozius conversion, and the Deathwing stombolter arm is also nice... But if one arm is outstretched, the other needs to be different methinks. Hell, even the chaos lord poweraxe arm would make for an imposing crozius conversion...

Blog Entries: 4 | either way, replacing the metal arms with plastic ones means you can take different shoulderpads (at least for the bolter arm at any rate), which gives you a bit more space to customise your heraldry, short of giving him a banner.

Blog Entries: 3 | I rather like the storm bolter he has... And the crozius.. I was thinking of ENHANCEMENTS to the existing pieces, rather the replacements. Maybe a scope/psyocculum for the storm bolter and some dangly chains for the corzius, etc...

| OHH ok Well cover him in chains like a cross of the "ghost rider" and a Mazzuchelli Penance Chain (think Davinci code albino)? Like around his arm and bolted to his shoulder greave?? I dunno. The model is way cool as it is too!
