The Black Templars stand as the most fervent Chapter within the Adeptus Astartes, a brotherhood of Space Marines renowned for their unwavering devotion to the Emperor. These warriors are not merely soldiers, but zealous crusaders, charging headlong into battle to confront their enemies directly and deliver the Emperor’s justice with the cold fury of righteous wrath.

Their fervor is legendary, a burning intensity that fuels their every action. In a testament to their unwavering resolve, the Black Templars chain their weapons – their bolters, their chainswords, their mighty power fists – to their wrists. This act of self-denial symbolizes their absolute commitment to the Emperor’s will. Their weapons are extensions of their bodies, tools of their faith, and they shall not be relinquished until victory is secured, or until they themselves are utterly vanquished.

The Black Templars are not merely warriors; they are living embodiments of the Emperor’s wrath, a storm of steel and fury unleashed upon the galaxy’s enemies. They are a terrifying sight to behold, their black armor gleaming ominously in the battlefield’s harsh light, their faces obscured by grim helms, and their eyes burning with the cold fire of unwavering faith.

The Predator is perhaps the best known and most widespread variant of the basic Rhino chassis. Augmented with superior armour and firepower, it entirely sacrifices the Rhino’s troop transport capacity in favour of ammunition and generators for its formidable weapon systems.

Having got this kit for Christmas, I started putting the model together. For painting I kept the sponsons separate and I can easily remove the turret as well. I gave the model an undercoat of Citadel White Scar. I gave the model a couple of light coats of Daemonic Yellow. I painted the main weapon, and the exhausts, with Leadbelcher. It was then onto shading the model.

For the next stage I used some Citadel Layer Yriel Yellow. I took a large brush and gave the model, what I would call, a heavy drybrush. I put paint on the brush, and then used some kitchen towel to remove most of the paint, and then using a heavy stippling process added paint to the model.
