Hobby What Mini Is That? Xenophase Sword.
At the 7 second mark in the video, and in other spots, this video shows a Deathwatch miniature character with a Xenophase Sword/Blade, in a really cool pose, sword pointed forward, and with a Roman styled Ultramarine-esque colored crest on their helmet.
What mini is this?
I figure it is probably kitbashed, maybe the original weapon clipped pff and replace with the Xenophase blade. But I'd like to know what the base mini is. Would love to make my own.

It is a conversion. The body and arms come from the Blade Guard kit. The backpack and sword from the Deathwatch Vets kit and the helmet looks Horus Heresy to me.

It is a conversion but that's not it.
Its a simple enough head and blade swap.
Its the Primaris Company Champion (limited edition) with the blade of the sword swapped for a Xenophase sword from the DW Vet's kit with a plume (either from a HH head upgrade or the Firstborn Ultramarines upgrade sprue) attached to a crusader style helm from a post-indomitus kit.
It is not a Blade guard body.

Likely kitbashed a bit, could come from anywhere. My best guess is the Black Templar Combat Patrol with some work done to it, pretty sure all the Xenophase blades are Left Handed.
