Games Workshop - Warhammer 40,000-35th Anniversary Celebration - Black Templars: Bayard's Revenge

Product Information

The long history of Warhammer 40,000 is teeming with quintessential matchups – but few are more iconic than Space Marines versus Orks. However, as this is on a 50mm and the Champion is on a 40mm, there may be some “official play issues,” but most people won’t really care.

Whilst I had the Dungeon Stone out, I used it to paint the areas on the shoulder pads and the crosses on the waist and helmet that would eventually be white. Bayard’s Revenge stands as a testament to the enduring theme of the Warhammer 40K universe – the dying of the light.I’m also painting some Horus Heresy minis in Emperor’s Children colors just for fun although I might use them in Kill Team. To do this, I thinned some Cadian Fleshtone until it was almost a wash consistency and applied it in multiple thin layers to the lips, nose and interior of the ears.

This stunning miniature encapsulates the history of Warhammer 40,000, featuring two of the game’s best-loved factions having an everyday 41st Millennium disagreement – a perfect memento from this week’s 35th anniversary celebrations. I heavily thinned some Screamer Pink and ran it into the recesses between the lips and teeth to give the impression of gums. This beautifully detailed, collectible miniature makes for a stunning display model and also serves double duty as an Emperor's Champion miniature for Black Templars Space Marine Players. What better way to celebrate the proud history of your favourite game than with a mini-diorama based on a classic piece of artwork? Known for their relentless pursuit of justice and their unyielding dedication to the Emperor, the Black Templars exemplify the grim determination of the Space Marines.The focus on gold is a nice change, although I would have liked to have had a bit more gold on the Jetpack and a purity seal actually on the body like with Lieutenant Amulius, those are just personal preferences. This set contains 29 cards for your faction’s units, terrain, and endless spells, plus 35 pop-out tokens to track aetherquartz, battle tactics, and more.

It is our mission to bring you the latest from the miniature wargaming scene, from narrative missions, hobby how-to tutorials, battle reports, unboxings and reviews, retro flashbacks, news, rumors, and more. Armageddon” not only presents Bayard’s gripping story but also delves into the legacy of the Black Templars Chapter. With that done I could then begin using lighter colours to really bring out the texture of the model.Like I did with the Castellan I used Daler-Rowney FW Red Earth acrylic ink through my airbrush to quickly lay down the colour. The helmet is different from the previous iteration, but it’s reminiscent of Helbrecht’s or the crusader’s helm from the Black Templars upgrade kit. The skin was looking nice and vibrant at this point but it needed a few more details to really make it pop. In the face of insurmountable odds, the Black Templars forge ahead, their righteous fury pushing them to the brink of madness.

The leather straps and trousers I then washed with Army Painter Strong Tone, and to really make the metal details look grimy I also used Strong Tone to get them a second wash. He’ll see what it takes to get it ready for the tabletop, show the model size, and tell you the GOTCHAS to be aware of when building them! Festooned with details, including a huge variety of different textures and materials, an option for a stylized helmet or bare head, plus a fully sculpted display base.This essential 120-page companion is stuffed with lore charting the fall and rise of the Lumineth, warscrolls, and Pitched Battle profiles for their units, and content for both Matched Play and Narrative Play battles.
