    Default Unnamed Space Marine Librarian

    Hey guys, I painted this Librarian who will be going to the local store to help start a small demo army. He needs a Chapter so I've taken to the internet for you all to help decide what chapter he is from!
    Hope you enjoy him!

    Happy modelling!

    With that blue all over and black shoulder pads, he's probably from an Ultramarines successor (well, let's face it - who isn't?). I don't think there's a cannon chapter with those colors, though. I'd say just put something cool on the shoulder pad and make up your own chapter.

    Well traditionally Librarians have Blue armour and their chapter is denoted by the shoulder pads. If I remember my codex astartes correctly though! It's been awhile! haha

    I thought about doing my own scheme on it, but I wanted it to be recognizable as an established chapter.

    The way it's usually done is blue armor and shoulder pads, except for the left arm and shoulder pad, both of which are done in the chapter's colors.

    That makes sense too! haha Like I said, it's been awhile since I briefed on my codex astartes!

    Originally I intended him to be a Deathwatch Librarian, but the thought of NMM arm and shoulder drove me mad haha

    Black shoulder pads reminds me of either Scythes of the Emperor, the new SM codex also has Hammers of Dorn or Sons of Dorn, can't remember, or the Mortifactors.

    Also, traditionally, Deathwatch Librarians have the all-black armor as well.

    Clearly my vote is in the Ultramarine camp.

    Blood Ravens?

    Cream centre on shoulder pad should stand out with the black trim and red robes will tie it in with the rest of the army... I think.
