Librarian Conversion! SACRIFICE YOUR JUDICIAR | Indomitus Kit Bash

[@aidanwright7278]

it would be a good idea.

[@i798]

The amount of HQ figures you sacrificed to make that librarian gives me anxiety

[@Specter2197]

Buy two boxes, now you have a second set of them to do this with... and a bunch of extra 'Crons on top of the first set you maybe didn't need...

[@Zorpazorp]

The others aren't sacrificed! They're now fodder for more conversions!

[@corneliusperkins7363]

Yes. The title should read: "SACRIFICE YOUR JUCICIAR, CAPTAIN, AND CHAPLAIN". Sweet result, though.

[@i798]

@@Zorpazorp that's just a fancy way of saying you'll eventually make the entire indomitus box conversion fodder

Yea...looks nice, but dayummm. I’m sure not many people are buying spares of these figs. But hey, let your imagination and your wallet take you where you wanna go.

I came from Pete's video, never knew about your channel until now but I gotta say, I loved the editing style and most of all your very skilled and advanced conversion, definitely something you don't see much of in YT. Great job!

[@Zorpazorp]

Welcome dude and thank you so much :D glad you enjoyed it all mate :)

[@xxlebox]

A quick tip for placing/locating is to dab some red paint on the first magnet, then push the arm in place where you want it, and you can drill where the red stained the arm.

[@Zorpazorp]

That's brilliant!

[@heckinmemes6430]

GW: "WRITE THAT DOWN! WRITE THAT DOWN!"

[@Zorpazorp]

🤣🤣🤣

[@MrStatistx]

If you got an issue with finding the right counterspot for a magnet, put a very small dot of color on the already glued magnet and push it against the place where you want to attach the arm. That way you got a color dot at almost the exact position

[@Zorpazorp]

That's a very clever idea and would make sure you got it perfect!

[@MrStatistx]

I'm making a Flayed one with a warrior and the thrall arms, so also an indomitus only conversion, but on the necron side

[@Zorpazorp]

Oh mannn that's brilliant!!

[@MrStatistx]

@@Zorpazorp of course right now from a play perspective, that's pretty uneconomical, with only 2 of those thralls in the box, but down the line when they release a box of those, I think I'm on to something.

[@jerryjezzaberry5009]

Itd be pretty easy to make a mould and cast more of the thrall arms

[@MrStatistx]

@@jerryjezzaberry5009 good idea and damn, I always forget that I even have blue stuff and never tried it

[@Zorpazorp]

Librarian, what does it say? We cannot get out. We cannot get out. They have taken the bridge and Second Hall. Frár and Lóni and Náli fell there bravely while the rest retreated to the Chamber of…Mazarbul. We are still ho{ldin}g...but hope …Óin's party went five days ago but today only four returned. The pool is up to the wall at West-gate. The Watcher in the Water took Óin--we cannot get out. The end comes soon. We hear drums, drums in the deep. They are coming.

Oh and an alternative idea to the guitar string (cause looking at it the first time, I thought that's what you did) would be to use greenstuff and the tentacle roller from greenstuffworld

Why don’t you push magnet while the green stuff still soft?

[@Zorpazorp]

It makes the green stuff deform and will ruin your sculpt of the shoulder, easier to just get it all dry and then drill a hole. With the cavity in the torso I didnt want to have to pack the entire cavity with GS so I let it cure hard, if I pushed into it, it would have fallen in :)

Idk, I think I'd rather spend $35 and just get a separate Librarian and keep the other models. Really liked how you magnetized these though, I'm magnetizing some Intercessors right now and putting them in with the other magnets attached to the arm to get the correct polarity is genius. When you do that, do you ever get extra glue on the other magnets though?

Isnt Gabriel still in charge? Historically they havent always had Libby/master leaders, just quite often.

[@darko-man8549]

Zorpazorp I thought the story went that after a particular battle the librarian took command as chapter master too and from then on it became a rule for them to be one and the same. But then apparently Gabriel breaks that rule. It’s annoyed me cos it would be a unique thing in the astartes to have a force where your chapter master was also your chief librarian

[@Zorpazorp]

@@darko-man8549 It wasn't a firm rule, but became an often adopted convention :) There were times when the roles were seperate but the Chief Librarian was always sort of on level pegging informally :) But it's been a while since I did a deep dive on their lore, will doo soon.
