I've started in to my second Leviathan box and I knew I wanted to paint these space marines for my Black Templar force! When it comes to stand out models like this Terminator captain, I didn't want to feel like I was repainting the same model in a different scheme, so I wanted to add a little extra. Partly inspired by my recent podcast episode with Pete the Wargamer who is the GOAT when it comes to conversions! I added some cool 3D bits from Grey Tide Studios, altered the base as well and came up with this beast of a result! What do you think? Have you done much conversion work lately? Would you like to see more of it from me?

Yass a terminator Black Templar, I knew you wouldn't let us down 😂😂😂
Never brother.
I love the conversion you did! I feel like kitbashes and conversions are the a very neat way to make the models your own, I am happy that you are delving a little bit more into it for your videos.
Glad you like it pal. And can for sure do more. And plan to.
Cracking job Andy 👍🏼
Cheers pal.
Those BT conversion pieces look SO good, I wish they sold a copy like that. Love the knightly look to him.
The set isn’t to expensive I believe I got them on a Kickstarter.
Impressive work. Looks slick
Cheers pal.
This is super helpful! Please do more Black Templar conversions!
Yes sir. I had a dreadnought planned.
Excellent conversion mate, I would love to see you do more conversion miniatures.
There are more planned already.
Love your Black Templars scheme. Great conversion. The red on the shield really works as well.
Thanks pal. Ye that was a real spur of the moment decision.
Fascinating, especially as a follow on to your 3D printing video, this is opening up a world of ideas that had simply never occurred to me before, thank you!
I honestly wish I could take credit for having the videos one after the other but it was a coincidence lol. Glad you like it though.
Planning to start a BT Army soon - these BT Painting Guides have been a godsent. Thank you very much! Subbed :)
Awesome to hear that, welcome on in!
Do the librarian as a Dark Angel :D Lots of fun ways to make him more dark angelsy
This please
Hahaha my lion does need an army. And I’ve yet to start it.
@@MediocreHobbies feed him. with his retinue of friends 😁
As a black templar I must say VERY NICE
Thank you kind sir
More black templar conversions please!!
Yes sir.
@@MediocreHobbies did you have to print the shoulder pad st different size? Wanted to buy some of the grey tide files but wasn't sure if they fit termies
That came out awesome!
Cheers pal glad you enjoyed it
I love the conversion
Cheers pal.
Cool video Andy, certainly interesting seeing the conversion work and yep definitely would like to see more. On a side note as you mentioned your second librarian, well I told you in a previous comment I was planning to corrupt mine, and he has in fact fallen to chaos and will be leading my new Iron Warriors army for tenth, originally he was goin to become a Nightlord but I don’t need another “leader” for that army (which is mostly a display project anyways as I spend so long on each mini). So yeah he’s going to be an Iron Warrior I’ll try to get an image to you once he’s finished.
Yes please would love to see it.
Great video! Thanks 😊
Glad you liked it!
Great job, dude! 👍🏻
Cheers pal.
Andy, beyond the fun, accessible, down-to-earth instructions and walkthrough, I love the Irishisms. Always fun to watch. Your videos feel like we could be buds doing hobby together at the same table just chatting about what we’re working on. I’m honored to be part of your community, and happy that your content exists! Thanks for doing what you do and keep on truckin’! 😊
That’s so kind pal. And I honestly really try and make it feel that way. I do feel there are certain creators out there that sound like I’m being talked down to. And I don’t like that at all. So happy to have you here to pal.
Definitely a big fan of the conversion videos, mostly just to gawk at it rather than follow along :P
I get that for sure. Same reason I watch them.
Pete the Wargamer has new competition
Hahaha the highest of praise.
@@MediocreHobbies also doing more black templar kit bashes just saying will get more following your channel we are fanatical just saying
Thanks, you are really on point with topics. As Leviathan is such a popular box I felt the need to kitbash the captain as well. Not painted but I will post when done.
Please do I’d love to see it.
I was thinking about making my extra Librarian into a Chaplin...think it can be done and it allows me to use the model in my own force.
Solid idea.
You should do the other librarian as a chaplain for the templars!
I have 4 champions already lol.
for the aquilla on front, if you've got a silver base, a light layer of snakebite leather makes the gold effect look amazing
Oh I’m aware. I just never remember at the time lol.
I love the conversion of the BT
Thanks man, really happy with it!
great conversion, love to see Black Templars conversions - keen to see more!
Thanks so much man
Hi Andy,
thanks for your great videos. I came across you almost a year ago and thanks to you i am now collecting Sons of Horus.
The way you paint inspires me, even though I'm an old hobby dino with over 15 years in the hobby have already seen a lot.
I also like the way you moderate your videos. Please keep up the good work, I am very excited to see more from you.
Best greetings from Germany.
That’s so kind pal. Glad I could help you out even with 15 years experience. Thanks for the year of support.
Glorious!
Cheers pal.
That's very nice.
Cheers I am pleased with it.
You do great work man, especially when talking threw your work, keep it up!
Aw that’s really good to hear! Really appreciate that, cheers!
Great work!
Thanks so much.
Looks great
Cheers pal.
He looks great and I like the style of him. The different sword angle and the beautiful shield certainly change him. I love the quartering of the shield and those candles.
Nicely done 🗡😠🛡
Ye I’m happy with the shield most of all.
Absolutely banging conversion! would definitely be interested in more conversion vids. :)
Well your in luck. Wait until this Saturdays video.
Love the amount of videos. Would love some mediocre hobbies merch 😁
Boom! www.mediocrehobbies.com/
Great video - enjoyed part II of the Space Hulk Terminators - Painting series
Glad your liking it pal.
That looked amazing! I'd love to see you tackle more conversions!
There not normally my thing but with my increase of 3D printing why not.
@MediocreHobbies I hear that, I saw these alt guard heads I wanted to use on my cadians, ww1 British helms and gasmasks, saw someone use those and they looked great.
amazing looking model please do more videos like this as their really interesting
I shall indeed pal.
Dude he looks awesome! The conversion work is really good. 3D printing is a huge game changer for conversion work now. Makes me wish I had a printer even more. On a side note your Black Templar guides got me through my own Templar project. They look great if i do say so myself.
So glad that my video got through your project
Pal. And I’m glad you like the conversion.
Great conversion, really cool! Can't wait to see him on the table top, really looking forward to see how you paint grey knights, would love to see that 😀
It’s been on my list for a while now. So I really need to get out and do it.
@MediocreHobbies I've always loved the thought of trying them but highlighting silver is a bit daunting for this noob lol
How on earth did I miss the last couple of videos. RUclips!!! --__-- This turned out Brilliant! love it :-) printing is such a life saver not just for full models but even for bits, can change something totally very fast :-) I dont know what I would do with my printer any more ha
Silly silly RUclips. Glad your caught up now and are enjoying the content.
@@MediocreHobbies Hell yes! also Graytide Studio is getting ready for a new KS in September :-) they also put out a new little small kit for free 7 bits very much inspired by the10th edition starter set (now all your guys can have Nid armour in places) thought you might like to know for yourself if you didnt :-)
I have to get around to buying a 3D printer one of these days. The conversion looks awesome. It's even better than the original sculpt.
Thanks man, you can always get these parts printed from sellers with licenses online and have them sent out to you if you don't have a printer yet! I did just do a video on a very good and very cheap printer though if you're looking out for one!
More BT and Guard content please, so inspiring!
My two favourite armies at the moment. So no worries so there.
That was amazing. It shows great minds think a like, when I was thinking of doing Black Templars I painted two old marines I had two different ways and the one with Corvus Black armour and Rakarth Flesh shoulder pads just looked way more eye catching.
We also think a like when it comes to that Librarian. I had to buy a new one as I had an accident with my Leviathan model during priming, and while I was building him I pulled out my Grey Knight Terminator spares and I think he'd look really good using the Champions Force Halberd in place of his axe. You can also add a few extra trinkets and replace the back icon with a Paladin one.
I love seeing conversion content on RUclips, done a few myself, so definitely do more.
And yes, a Terminator Marshal or Marshal in Terminator armour, is the correct term for this guy. I plan to use the Blood Angel Terminator Captain I got from Made-To-Order and mix him in with the new captain, once I get the starter set contents.
Cheers for that pal. Glad I’m not the only one that shuns a at from the white. There will be more conversions don’t worry about that.
The captain came out amazing!
Cheers pal.
I definitely love kit-bashing, and I'd love to see your handiwork on kit-bashing, especially Black Templars!
I shall be doing the new terminator sculpts soon don’t worry and they will be so black Templars.
Great job, dude! Looks pretty awesome) btw I’ve missed the name for the red paint you used. Can you remind please? Really liked the cloak you did
Mepheston i believe.
Like it except the tilt shield should be on the sword arm to protect the should joint
You are of course rite but It fit so well on the side I did.
Nice conversion, smashing the videos lately 👍🏻
Appreciate that pal.
That turned out awesome.
Cheers pal.
Comment to let you know i am excited. Now more please! ;)
HahahHa of course.
awesome work!
Glad you liked it!
realy nice templer
Cheers pal.
Fantastic work man!
Appreciate that pal.
Great video
Thanks so much!
That's came out awesome mate
Thanks so much!
The rest of the imperium: you know we have plenty of guns, right?
Templar marshal: yes, but i am not a bitch like you all are so i'll stick to my shield and sword. Now if you'll excuse me, i have a planet to purge.
HahahHa yup. By far the most bad ass.
Black Templars! \m/
Hahaha there are just great aren’t they.
Weren't you planning on taking it easy after leviathan week 😂
This is taking it easy………… rite!
He looks awesome but the sash across his shield looks odd to me. I would expect it to be red or white, and maybe have script on it. It looks like a mourning sash instead (which maybe it is--maybe he's newly elevated after the death of the shieldbearer).
I was going to do it red but didn’t want to unbalance the quartered effect on the shield. So for now I just made it neutral.
Looks great! Can you do a space wolves version 😊
I have a few spacewolf videos already. Just search for them.
Sweet
Cheers pal.
Hey man, great video and great conversion. My only criticisim is that the quality of the video is a bit low, even when I set it to 1080. Idk if its the camera or something else doing you dirty, but I would love to see your vids in higher definition!
Sorry to hear pal. Equipment is not cheap. I’d love to upgrade many pieces lol. Someday soon I hope.
@@MediocreHobbies Well, keep up the good work. Ill stay around hehe
I love it. Somehow someone gave Terminator Armor to Diablo's Paladin.
Hahaha a terrifying prospect
Looks amazing as usual Andy👍🏻
I love the converted bits, they really hit the Black Templar aesthetic.
Quick question- do you ever paint the name scrolls and/or name your characters? I can see on the original Captain’s right shoulder and the new ones storm shield that you have left them basecoated in a neutral colour.
I’m not very good and freehand/ names so if I can use transfers I do otherwise probably blank. But I do indeed name them.
Model turned out brilliant with the Black Templar themed additions.
I don't have a 3D printer but have looked at popgoesthemonkey for some parts. Are there any online sellers of 3D printed parts that are compatible with 40k?
Yes! You can actually get these exact ones printed by other people, if you go to grey tide studio you’ll see a list of people who has a license to sell printed versions of their files! I would also highly recommend proxywars, they have a lot of licences for printing various 40k style designers, plus the quality of their prints is really good! Not having a printer definitely doesn’t hold you back any more-check Etsy as well and just type in what you would like! There’s places there that you can buy files from and then send them to somewhere else to be printed and shipped to you!
That looks awesome.
Quick question what super glue do you use? I bounce between gorilla glue or just plastic glue but I found gorilla glue doesn’t work as well as I hope
I just use normal cheap glue from my local deals or poud shop. 4 tubs for €1.50. Really
Good.
The conversion looks great! By chance do you know if the company you got the files from sells printed out pieces for us bottom feeders that dont have a 3d printer? Id love to get some of the pieces for my army.
I do believe there are indeed sellers of the parts. Grey tide studios is where the parts come from.
Its really amazing, how much you size up the 3d files en the shoulder pads so they fit so good??
They sized them up for me. They have a separate file with all pads in terminator size. It’s quite clever.
if you give him a shield with the cream and red why not on the smalle shield on his left, i would think that those are his persenol collers. heraldy stuff :)
Maybe yes. I wanted it plane for transfers.
good conversion and extra points for not doing a pixelated thumbnail.
Hahahaha cheers. I nearly did to be honest.
Dad bod for the algorithm!!!
HahahHa yes.
wow, what kind of super glue is that?I really need a glue that works fast like that
It’s just super glue rather than plastic glue!
Cheep glue from deals.
Niiiiice!
Cheers pal.
What you doing now that he’s not allowed a shield
I do what I want lol. Count as a Chaplin maybe.
@@MediocreHobbies I want to give my Flesh Tearers terminator captain a shield for rule of cool but I also love the big storm bolter.
How do you reach under the cape when the model is all built together like that? I don’t like doing sub assemblies, but since mine is built altogether, I’m having a hard time figuring out how to paint under the cape
Think about it-if it’s hard to reach with a brush, it’s probably hard to see as well so most of it will be in shadow! Don’t overthink it too much, use the smallest brush you have and if you can’t reach all of it, don’t worry too much.
@@MediocreHobbies i’m such an idiot Idk why I didn’t think of that! Thank you!!
Would you consider converting the Librarian into a Chaplin in Terminator Armor for the BT army?
I already have a Chaplin in terminator armour for them. Not a bad choice though.
Is it Black Templar or Black Legion contrast on the armor?
Black templar.
Check the playlist for black templars and you will see a full walkthrough.
No pinning? Pete would very disappointed.
Oh no. I shall give him many dead animal bits to make amends
@@MediocreHobbies praise be to the giblets!
Where did you get the stl files from
Grey tide studios.
Thank you
What size did you print the shoulder pads?
Grey Tideo studios has them in different files for large and regular sized shoulder pads so i just hit print on the larger ones!
@@MediocreHobbies so you get different sized files when you buy them?
Really great but don't you think you deserve at least one day off mate?
That’s what weekends are for!
So i checked the site it said sale..the price formthe predator crossed outnwas 18.00 and the new price is 19.00 😮 is this a joke rofl 😅
I have no idea what you're trying to ask/say here :D
I checked the website for thr miniatures u linked, as an example there is a predator mini..it shows a price of 18.00 crossed out and a new price of 19.00
@@tebusan6217 do you mean the we print miniatures site? That has nothing to do with this video, these bits are from grey tide studios
More and weirder
Hahhaha I shall see what I can do.
Ah yes, The "Where's Wally" game, Warhammer 40k edition. As a chaos player... I lose that game frequently. XD
'Where did that F&*$in' tooth come from?!?"
Someday, I shall re-envision my Word Bearers and do heavy conversion work on them. That will be an expensive undertaking though so it will be after I finish school and get some saving stored away again. Love the conversion too! It's amazing how a simple head-swap can change a miniature sometimes!
It will Be so so good though. Hope to see it someday.
