From Templar Marshal to Primaris Captain - Warhammer 40K Conversion/Kitbash

[@ConversionBeam]

A few things. Firstly, if you end up doing this conversion for yourself, please please please show me! I would love to see it :) Secondly, what do you guys think of my video structure so far? I am a long way off the production quality I would like for the Channel, but I think I am making good progress. Regardless, feedback would be greatly appreciated!

[@threenurglingspretending]

Awesome conversion man can’t wait to see more

[@GoodGuyGeno]

video structure is great! I think it would benefit from timestamps, it would make it easier to use the video as a reference while working on my own projects

[@LordCrate-du8zm]

I’ll definitely try this, I’ll come back to this to show you

[@ConversionBeam]

@GoodGuyGeno That would actually be pretty smart to do, thanks mate!

[@ConversionBeam]

@LordCrate-du8zm Looking forward to it brother!

[@nacidocoqui]

Now THAT'S a Captain that leads from the front!

[@ConversionBeam]

Exactly what I was going for, hope you enjoyed :)

[@gusmcgranahan9779]

If you need the sword to be even bigger, try using the gravis captain's power sword. That little bit of extra size goes a long way.

[@colewebb9881]

Tehehe that’s what she said

[@danielfenton9742]

Your conversions are inspiring, battle-brother. Keep being great.

[@ConversionBeam]

I appreciate it brother, I’ll do my damn best!

[@armin8306]

I didn't even know a bladeguard captain existed. I want one!

[@LordCrate-du8zm]

It’s the captain with storm shield. Awesome mini.

[@omnissiahGaspar]

you used to be able to get him relatively cheap because he was in the 9th edition starter sets. Ig an equivalent to the current terminator captain from leviathan

[@GoodGuyGeno]

Love these conversions! Reminds me of Pete the Wargamer's videos in the best way

[@ConversionBeam]

That’s some high praise! Glad you enjoyed :)

[@chadrheault755]

When you need to drill a hole make a pilot hole using the tip of your knife and spin it around until you get a small hole so your drill bit has somewhere to sit so it wont spin out I noticed it did that on the sword. Love your work

[@jacko-san7570]

Like it how every step is "wait, I can do that more complicated!" :D Amazing work, keep it up! ^^

[@TacDonut]

Love it! Looks so cool. I got a Templar army and now I think I need to do this for a custom marshal

[@MegamanZero410]

This is very nice. Works for a ton of applications. Beautiful paint job at the end there.

[@WePaintMinis]

Stumbled across this video last night. Excellent work. Keep up the great work fellow converter!

[@ConversionBeam]

Means a lot coming from you brother, I shall do my best!

[@WePaintMinis]

@@ConversionBeam looking forward to seeing what else you come up with. 😊

[@PureOwnification]

Awesome work as always and love the lore of the chapter. I would love to see you convert the Lion to be your chapter master.

[@BerserkerBryan]

I feel like another armor rectangular armor plate below the terminator storm shield would look awesome.

[@chesteratienza5175]

I've been binge watching your vids! solid vids!!

[@ConversionBeam]

Thanks brother, I’m glad you’re enjoying what I’m putting out :)

[@brunorocha7572]

"thats quite a promotion eh brother"

[@tressil3607]

This is an amazing conversion, and I loved the comment about purity seals to cover mishaps. I use them for that too lol

[@jmaccsarmiesofArda]

Ahh auto focus my arch enemy. Great work man love the new pose

[@ConversionBeam]

Ah, you understand my struggles! Thanks for watching :)

[@NevermindThee]

Nice job. I wonder if a red or white helmet would have looked better on this one. Or a white and red patterned cog iro.

I gotta try this one now, it looks super dope for my custom chapter, amazing work

[@boneman-calciumenjoyer8290]

It's actually kinda impressive how clean you're "sanding" your bits here with only a dull hobby blade. I sure can't clean my models up like that, I've a few dozen different grains of sandpaper for that. So GG for being very good at "sanding" with a knife.

[@ConversionBeam]

I find the method super efficient, I honestly feel like I don’t even need sanding sticks. I appreciate the feedback brother :)

[@JohnSmith-yp3jm]

Good work the pose is dynamic enough I feel like he is gonna shield bash an enemy

[@ConversionBeam]

I know right?! Thanks for watching brother

[@andrewjkipp2837]

I love that shield conversion and paint job

[@finnedgaming9965]

Another amazing video man, can't wait for more!

[@ConversionBeam]

Glad you’re enjoying my vids, Brother

[@Holysnowboard]

That lore was actually sick👌

[@ConversionBeam]

Glad you liked it brother! Was worried it would come across as cringe 😅

[@timmogridge1546]

This is awesome work, also you showed what was important and cut out the faffwhich is good. I also think the painting and end result help round out the video.

[@seankelly69]

That’s a work of art mate…. Really lovely work. As to your vid quality…. I dont think there’s anything wrong with what your doing. I like the format. It shows important bits, straight to the point, full of good info and explanation…. All good! :)

[@ConversionBeam]

I appreciate the feedback brother, thanks heaps :)

[@cotton2173]

Drywall filler, I never thought about that. I like that a lot. May give that a go

[@pipmeyer3889]

Captains should always have bigger swords! Worth it.

[@MultiVaevictis]

I relly love this kind of project. I subscribe

[@north_locke16]

That shield has the perfect amount of blank space to add a kill tally! it's an awesome kitbash

[@jksrageplay7851]

A Fallen kill tally?!

[@north_locke16]

@@jksrageplay7851 the dark angels have a fun hobby of making rosaries made of black pearls, each pearl being a fallen kill. But yea, any kinda kill tally would be cool lookin

[@anotheryoutubeuser5379]

I think another blade you could source is the new terminator captain from the leviathan boxes, the get started boxes, or where ever you can find him honestly. But this is sick

[@ConversionBeam]

That certainly is a good idea!

[@CRO83RTS]

Tech priest on a Trike with couple of heavy weapon servitors was an old goal of mine 😢

[@ger5956]

He looks awesome 👍🏻

[@averageeughenjoyer6429]

A whole damn chapter master

[@UltraRealTrueJesus]

a dark vengeance librarian or chaos champion cloak (you only want the back half and fronof the chaos cloak, and front of the libby with details scraped off)/vangaurd vet shield/assault marine power sword and company command squad champion and techmarine (space marine rhino?) makes for a true/firstborn version of this. can make one (actually 4 in various poses) but no glue.

[@Bottle-OBill]

Yoooooooo now THAT is a Heroic Pose!

[@ConversionBeam]

Hell yeah it is!

[@caitlynwarrington8690]

This is a great looking conversion. Nice work!

[@ConversionBeam]

Thanks! really glad you enjoyed :)

[@dr.motte1]

Nice video 👍 PS: Iron Angels already exist officially.

[@gafrers]

Nice work, love the pose

[@XxusmcsamurixX]

Looks awesome buddy.

[@geoffreyhebel2438]

Any conversion that makes one less black Templar model is a good one

[@paulofreire7520]

Great job, my man 👍🏻

[@BrushQuill]

Looking very nice, great kitbash

[@ConversionBeam]

Thanks for watching brother, glad you enjoyed!

[@scenczyk1429]

Great kitbash

[@Mogeko_Ranger]

So damn cool! I've always wanted to buy the Marshall but I don't play Black Templars, so I wasn't sure what to run him as. Even Castellan, that model is so cool and I would love to have him but again, not a BT player lol

[@ConversionBeam]

Nothing a lil bit of converting can’t fix!

[@Mogeko_Ranger]

@@ConversionBeam Also man, I hope to see a Primaris Devastator conversion in the future 🙏 I haven't seen a good one and only using the Devastator bits on true scale marines which gives them t-rex arms

[@przemysawseredyszyn1405]

Could use a bit of imperial/ad mech bling on that chain on his chest.

[@K0sk4]

Yes. This will happen!

[@garuikoto1649]

Eh visto todos tus videos y me parece increíble tú trabajo sigue así ❤

[@goforitpainting]

Looks cool.

[@56sketch]

Amazing!

[@snowcraft-d3d]

Welp... I might have to 'bash a custom captain in the future for my Angels Repentant 3rd Company captain.

[@ConversionBeam]

Best of luck brother, I’d love to see it when it’s done!

[@boutinpowered8373]

I've been looking for a Relic Captain shield for a while now and here you are cutting it until it's just a blank shield. 😢

[@jksrageplay7851]

Wonder if you'll do their deathwing unit, being from the dark angles

[@ConversionBeam]

Absolutely! Well I will be doing my own unique version of them :)

[@ekilnotpoven]

great mini, recomend that you make a discord server so that we can easily share our takes on this conversion

[@ConversionBeam]

That’s something I’ll certainly get around to doing when the channel grows a bit more, I’m glad you enjoyed the video though!

[@MRARSON-v6t]

Noice Keep up the good work 👍

[@ericpaz4171]

Dopeness

[@AshleyBlackwater]

nice work :D What's up with the gloves btw? Don't they have it alot harder to work with such small pieces? and re: better way of doing the superglue greenstuff, it's fine to do it that way, gives you lots of flexibility not otherwise possible, but you might want to give pinning through the green stuff a try, makes the join far stronger and rigid :)

[@Ghostpanzer]

That’s epic

[@ConversionBeam]

You’re epic!

[@justinmacrae7430]

Rad

[@Andrew-bh1je]

noo my eyes! why didn't you prime it

[@e.goryas]

Bro use matte varnish. At least on a cape

[@maximumrelaxation4770]

that shield looks silly

[@ConversionBeam]

:(

[@thepenguinhouse]

It's criminal your parents didn't take you to a speech therapist.

[@ConversionBeam]

Is it actually hard to understand me?

[@thepenguinhouse]

@@ConversionBeam Not really, I think school must have been hard. I had something similar growing up.

[@AlexAndrews]

Nothing wrong with your voice dude. That was very strange random comment somehow managing to slight you and your folks. Pay it no heed. Nice vid!

[@thepenguinhouse]

@@AlexAndrews don't lie to the guy

[@frostmagemarii]

This does look great, my only gripe would be that you didnt replace the necklace piece with anything. Even a standard aquila would have made it look less out of place.
