Default plastic chaplin and librarian mini tutorial

this is a mini tutorial for making a plastic chaplin and librarian!

bitz/models used

for chaplin
----------
khorne berzerker body without khorne symbol on front
khorne berzerker plasma pistol arm minus plasma pistol with skull shoulderpad
tactical squad sprue (dagger, seal, two grenades, backpack, parchment with aquilla, chatesisim rods, half bionic head - may substitue head)
chaos termi lord sorcerer staff
suitable skull with wings
any marine left arm
commander set (gun, whichever you choose, i chose a SB)


for librarian
----------
tactical sprue
(torso, legs, right arm + pad, bolter, seal, pouch, backpack)
suitable marine power sword arm + pad
wood elf hooded head.


LIBRARIAN MAKING
------------------

step 1, make marine without arms or head.
(no pic)

step two, attach head and glue arms to pads



step three, attach SWORD arm to model (not bolter arm, explained below)




step four, attach bolter to arm, leave off, prime both parts, paint, glue bolter arm to body.

the reason for not gluing the bolter arm is that it obstructs the chest so you cannot paint.

chappie
----------

step 1, cut spiky bit from force staff.



step 2, glue skull with wings on where spiky was



step three, glue storm bolter to skull padded arm (it should fit perfect)




step 4, glue torso with head onto legs



step 5, attach crozius to body, then attach extra's





step six, go bash some enemies of the imperium.



--------


i hope you enjoyed this article and that it will help you create your own chaplin and librarian.

i'm out.

Not a bad start here MArcus! It's nothing horribly complicated, the parts are easy to find, the mods and bashings of kits are basic, and the overall result is quite nice!

those are some cool conversions you got there marcus. wouldn't have thought to use a wood elf head for a libby, that was a good idea the chappies crozius seems a bit long though, almost like a staff.

Nice tut. Not to hurt the person's feelings that painted that sorcerer, but the paint job really made me laugh.

Crozius's come in many shapes and sizes. The most common are mace-type things but I'm sure you could get away with a staff sort of thing.

Good job Marcus.
