White Templar progress. Chapter master

Here's my Chapter Master for the white templars.
I have decided to repaint my Iron hands Honour guard into white templars and later get a Master of the Forge as the HQ for them instead.

My WT leader sports two lightning claws and artificier armour, he's a pure close combat beast.

The only ranged weaponry he has is the orbital bombardment and an auspex!
Characters with no ranged weapons might as well have an auspex, its 12" range and ability to lower the opponents cover save might come in handy...maybe.

I might give him the Armor Indomitus, at least in some games. a 2+ invuln every now and again might keep him alive against MC's and other nasties.

White Templar progress #2

At first I painted all the loin cloth thingies white (building up from brown, while the armor goes from black to grey to white).

But later I realized they should be black, if they should be reverse colours from Black Templars. Also it looks a lot better as there isn't really that much black on the models, but a ton of white.

I switched the power sword to a power axe, +1s and ap2 is a better buff and he will likely survive until he gets to strike so it's all good.

Still thinking of switching the plasma gun to a melta gun or a flamer.
