Chaplain for McQueen's Marauders

This is the Chaplain for McQueen's Marauders - in Terminator armor, no less.
The black armor includes only a little bit of the chapter's colors - orange right shoulder guard and part of the bolter.
With the basically black armor, this figures is fairly easy and quick to paint. Even the edging around the armor wasn't as bad as I thought it would be - thanks to the clear sculpting/details.
I used an old Micron pen for the squiggly lines on the purity seals/scrolls. It was kind of dried up, so I may get another pen for stuff like this - it works pretty good for this.
Next up is the Chapter Techmarine. I plan to swap out his head with a Ravenwing Command head with a Corvus Mark VI "beaky" type of helmet.
I magnetized all of the peripheral mechanism as well as the right arm with the bolter. This allows the parts to move up and down a bit - as well as make them less likely to break as they just come apart.

    Thanks for that, James. I suppose he's the kind of Chaplain you don't get too close too. ;) Best, dean

    Nice work Dean. Like the magnets. They look like big models to paint. Bit bigger than the 15 mm guys I do at the moment.

    This death's head chaplain scares me just looking at him. Great painting and planning on all the magnetizing!

    The Chaplain is scary looking.

    You'll have to get some zombie servitors for the techmarine.

    Nice work, very clever use of magnets - they must be tiny - where did you get them from?

    Thanks, Scott. I picked the magnets at my FLGS - but, lots of places carry them, like the War Store - Rare Earth magnets http://www.thewarstore.com/magcraft.html

    Best, Dean
