Space Marines - Dark Angels Librarian in Terminator Armour

Fig. 1: Manufacturer image Fig. 2: Completed image

This is the Librarian in Terminator armour from the Leviathan boxed set. Mostly painted as per the official photos, but with a Dark Angels right shoulder and cape added from an earlier Dark Angels command unit model set to match the theme of the rest of the units.

Experimented with thinned down oil paint for the glowing runes on the armour and was surprised at how well it worked.
