- In this video I kitbash up my first ever lore only model, the Deathwatch Keeper! Not much imagery and lore on these guys, but what they do have is pretty awesome.

Some lore for Fleshtearers could be that he’s standing watch as a form of correction. If a Fleshtearer runs out and is too rambunctious on the battle field, it would be an interesting “training opportunity” for him to stand guard, to understand the importance of self control. It was a pretty common form of correction during my time in the Marines! Hahaha
Well I wish I thought about that before 😅 would be a pretty good bit of lore
@@JamsMiniMods hahaha, just imagine someone finally breaching the defenses just find themselves face to face with a pissed off Fleshtearer whose sword is bigger than most space marines. Plus.....it would be kind of rewarding for the FT standing guard! Hahahaha
@@mini-paintingpapa He'd breath a sigh of relief.. "battle at last" as he charges in with a 10ft tall chainsword 😂 I just imagine everyone running away
@@JamsMiniMods I just imagine the enemy seeing him then a split screen view of the enemy’s eyes widening in terror as his narrow with vicious excitement. Man....I wanna make a movie now! Lol
This needs to be a short animation!!!
Some times the most simple kitbashes are the most menacing in appearance
Yup.. I love to keep things looking simple
Leaving a Blood Angel all alone in a fortress; with nothing to do, but brood? Do you want the Black Rage? 'cause that's how you get the Black Rage. That's a cracking conversion.
Haha you have a point there 😅 Thanks man 🤘🤘
the aquilla is from the top of the banner from the standard primaris ancient. The ancient was the one that was in the dark imperium box set
I think you're right, I cut if off when I was wolfing mine up. Thanks 🤘
You also can get one in the Rhino kit - though I am not sure if they are making that kit anymore. I lucked out and one of my FLGS employees had a bunch of accessories up from a few Rhinos in a box up for super cheap and I bOught all of them. Just because I find stuff like that super useful
Definitely stealing this kitbash for my Black Templars, so awesome!!
Go for it, and definitely give me a look when you're done! Thank you!
I've had that art saved for a while now and never thought about how to make one but the ancient is an inspired choice.
Yeah I've had the Keeper in my mind for a long time and it only recently came to me that the Ancient is perfect. And thanks of course 🤘🤘
Damn buddy... he turned out fantastic. and that blade is badass.!!
Your Deathwatch army is going to look so good when its done..!!
Another sweet kitbash.. well done sir..
Thanks man.. I'm pretty pleased with the results. I just gotta start painting them all!!
This guy looks bad ass!
I enjoyed knowing where all the parts come from, and your thoughts on what you wanted to represent, and what you felt didn't match the character.
It really helps bring the assorted parts together into a miniature.
Thanks Bugnaz!
This could be the kitbash of 2021!!! GW should use look at this and take notes. Unreal. The most terrifying hall monitor one could image! Great job!!
Haha thanks man.. That's some kind words! You definitely wouldn't want to trespass with this guy around 😅
Sweet a Deathwatch marine, they are one of the best space Marine armies for kitbashing.
Definitely the best for kitbashing!
Thats an awesome build. Giant chainsword - some sort of BA. Yep I agree with your thoughts there.
Thank you!.. Yeah it had to be a BA with the chainsword and fancy robes I think 🤔
With resin you're better if doing a couple of things, bathing in warm water then before you even dry off sawing rather than cutting. Then sanding down to exact size
Yeah sawing and sanding is definitely the safest way to go!
What a fantastic conversion! Great work.
Thanks Arc! 🤘
@@JamsMiniMods Also, you can run the Keeper as a Judiciar! The statline of the executioner relic blade can be subbed for either a big eviscerator or glaive, and the usual clavis they're armed with in the lore has similar rules to the tempormortis.
@@ARCThunder Ah that's perfect! I think that's what I'll be doing.. although, according to the lore that I've seen they usually remove their clavis before battle, that's why I didn't include it. But in my head canon it would work perfectly!!
@@JamsMiniMods Yeah it's not perfect-for some reason the Clavis on the Watch captain requires a stratagem and isn't always "on" like the tempormortis, but I figured it was the best fit for what we have.
@@ARCThunder Definitely makes the most sense and fits the model the most
What a great idea Jam!!
Thanks Loken 😎🤘
This is awesome
Thanks Peter!
awesome kitbash!
Thanks Michiel!
Great model, my man! 👍🏻
Thank you Paulo!! 🤘
Nice work, think the Aquila is from the front of the repulsor/executioner kit
Thanks Pete, might be, I do have that kit lying around 🤔
Absolutely love this!
Thanks Kut!! 🤘
Yeah buddy! Putting that Chainsword to work!! Awesome!!
Hell yeah man.. Can't leave it lying around the bits box 🤘
@@JamsMiniMods Where can we get it?
What @dg13 said.... guessing conversion world?
@@Dragongaze13 Well Mini-Painting Papa sent it to me.. Do you remember where it's from man?
@@JamsMiniMods I'm pretty certain it's from the Kromlech Rippers bundle
nailed it again!
Thank you sir!
I have an idea, deathwatch thousand son blackshield?
It'll definitely come one day!!
Awesome video, subscribed!
Thanks Tom 🤘
Looks super cool
Thanks man! 🤘
the chainsword is from Kromlech, if anyone wants to know
Yeah, it's the Ripper pack if I remember correctly?
@@JamsMiniMods yep
Could of done dark angels or dark Templar. Love the blood angels though
These are my top 3 for 40k
Yeah they could have all worked for sure
Hey JimJam, always loving the conversions. I'm trying to make my own chapter "Soul Reavers" or "Soul Harbingers"'. Prob have a skull helmet (Morte) from LiberDemonia and painted a Icy Blue black with Silver trim and maybe a red shoulder pad. Something like Deathwatch..still thinking. Love to see your version of this for a kitbash. Would a Dremel be better ?
$35.00 on Amazon lolz
Hey man, thank you!
They sounds really cool and would be fun to kitbash! A dremel is always a good idea, I need to update all my tools I think 😅
@@JamsMiniMods Just bought a Redemptor Dreadnought and watched your Wolfy kitbash from a year ago. Might have to build a Melee Weapon and shield for mine. Wolves have SO MUCH conversion bits =( Might look at Liber Daemonica for bitz as they have some awesome stuff
@@wookieelicious9569 Nice.. They really do and there are loads of great sites to get bits!
it made me annoyed that they are not in model form they would a cool exclusive mini for the deathwatch ( also could run him as a chaplin or a captain
Hopefully if DW get expanded on in the future we'll get him
Big swords for big lords
Al G. Orithm
Amen Mr. Orithm!
Where is this Chainsword from?
I have this guy in my bitsbox as well cause I stole his banner for my firstborn :D.
I think it's from the Kromlech 'Ripper' set.. He's a great model to convert!
@@JamsMiniMods Hey thanks for the fast answer. So far I didnt start a Primaris army but I thought about using this guy for Inquisitor (the game) in 28mm, he will look as intimidating as Marines are in that game.
@@rostigerrolf4490 No worries, hope it could help.
Oh nice, I've never played that game but you should share your work if you ever convert that guy up 🤘
@@JamsMiniMods My plan was to build all the original characters from the rulebook in 28-32mm GW miniatures.
Captain Artemis from the Deathwatch line came fom that game from example but he is still a little marine :D.
@@rostigerrolf4490 how many characters were there? I never played. Would love to get the models though
The Astartes version of custodes shadow keepers
I didn't even know they existed.. I'll have to go look them up!
@@JamsMiniMods the shadow keepers are cool the guard the vaults beneath the imperial palace, whether it be ancient technology or prisoner cells. When the great rift opened loads of prisoners escaped know the Shadow Keepers have come into the light to hunt them down
nice
Thanks 🤟
Where did you get the blade? Link pls?!
Got it from a friend but I believe its from the Kromlech Ripper bundle.
Love it ._.
Thank you!!
Why you never paint them? :(
All my newer videos I paint them
That’s a really cool model, but you’re gonna hate yourself if you paint it
I think that with all my conversions haha
I was right
You definitely were pretty damn close!
Yeah I'll wait until somebody comes out with another video....can't do grim dark... 😐 Sorry
Can't do grim dark?
