Description
This is my current project. A Terminator armoured Chapter Master for my own Chapter, the Sons of Hephaestus, a Salamanders successor chapter.Its mostly a kitbash (see the chaos terminator lord bits) but I also had to make a lefthanded Thunder Hammer...
Im still looking for a name for the hammers, something iconic like Gabriel Angelos' Thunder Hammer; God Splitter, so suggestions are appreciated...
Stole the idea of the twin hammer and the chaos cloak from [link] J00m4n's Black Templar army, hope he wont mind
I made a little background info:
V’ern Mael’Eth: once trusted friend and trusted advisor of Cinaed (the first chaptermaster of the sons of hephaestus), now the current Chapter Master of the Sons of Hephaestus. Being the Chapter Champion under the command of Cinaed, he recovered the broken body of his Chapter Master after Cinaed slew the mighty Swarmlord. He was well known to Inquisitor Lord Kryptoman of the Ordo Xenos before he was issued a Carta Extremis and was stripped of his title and position in the Inquisition. This fact combined with the Sons of Hephaestus’ specialty to fight Tyranids might explain why so many of the Sons of Hephaestus’ Battle Brothers have served in the Deathwatch. V’ern Mael’s dubble Thunderhammers where crafted on the very first Cremá, a religious celebration for the Sons of Hephaestus. The ancient fire still empowers the weapons, and when they strike they strike with explosive force.

true, but they all have those strange engraved letters on the shoulderplates... takes some really smooth greenstuffing to get that out.

I ment keep it. Its not chapter specific words. Its more things like "justice" and things. It'd help your CM stand out.

hmmm... sounds good in that case i really need to look for one of those shoulderpads
they also have those nice shields on top of their shoulderplates, so i could paint those with flames... and the trim is one of those upstanding trims which look awesome imo...
only problem is that those shoulderpads are mostly sold out on bitzbox

that is true... but i have learned that if you paint it apart the colors might vary due to:
* different amount to water to dilute the paint
* different temperature of the room
etc
anyway, i will keep an eye out for those shoulderpads... that is just too awesome not too do

the full kits are good, and if you miked them with a normal terminator kit, you could use them as sargents for your termies.
Also, theyed make a nice librarian with terminator armour.
