This is for my DIY chapter (the Sun Crushers). Their colors are orange and red, which is why they are mixed into the paint scheme. I used parts from a chainfist (chopping it down a bit) as well as the parts from a regular apothecary and a power sword blade (fitted to the cut down haft of a thunderhammer). I'm not too fond of the paintjob (the white is just so-so) but I do like how the wargear came out.

i hate to be the bearer of bad news but you can't outfit a sanguinary priest with that loadout (powerfist and terminator armor). he does look pretty awesome though.

I'm aware that he cannot have a power fist...it was really just used so I could have the chainsaw attachment. If I would have had more forethought I would have tried to carve the saw off and put it on a regular termie arm but by the time I thought of that it was already put together and I didn't want to cut it up again. I only play friendly games and those that I play with are aware that he doesn't have a PF.

Looks great!

I really like the colour scheme. The white looks pretty darn good in that picture, the red and yellow work well with it. The Chapter name is brilliant.

I'm hoping to see more.

Excellent paint job. The white looks gritty and weathered. I agree with the post above, the name is very creative!

Thanks for the complements one and all. I do have some more examples of the Chapter on my blog if you're interested Element206. The site is http://suncrushers.blogspot.com/

I like it, who really cares if he can have a powerfist or not, it's obvious what he is and does.

looks really good man, cant wait to see more!

90% of tournies and their players? people he doesn't know or just met that see the model on the opposing side of the table? it's not obvious because he's got a giant fist with completely different rules that he doesn't actually have access to. not everyone knows that a sanguinary priest can't have that loadout as most terminator characters in marine armies actually can; i only do because i play blood angels and wanted to use a SP with a powerfist and was disappointed (and suprised) to find out it wasn't an option. if he's playing someone new, they could easily make tactical decisions in game based on a ws5 powerfist with FNP and 2+/5++ armor joined to a squad. that being said, the OP has said he only plays in friendly games and knows about the discrepancy and will inform his opponents. that's completely fair and reasonable and i wouldn't have any problem with that approach whatsoever.
