I am told the old GW website used to have plans for the DA Temple and I'm wondering if any of you excellent folks happen to have them?

Update. I did some digging in the internet archive. The monastery plans only appeared on the us site - as near as I can tell.

Do any of you folks have the templates and pictures?

I sent in a request to GW to repost the plans. I'm still looking if anyone can help.

Could we get a picture of what your looking for? I may not know what your talking about but I may have seen it somewhere.

Its the temple that Azrael is featured in the codex (I think) either that or I remember a tutorial on how to build your own temple from the Diorama with Abbaddon and 4 dead marines from each main chapter at his feat.

Here is what I know. A person listed a scratchbuilt DA Temple on EBay. I contacted the seller who emailed me that the plans used to be on the old GW website.
The picture he had in the listing resembled the pictures in the codex in many respects. I'll see if I can still get the picture and post it somehow.

Thank you all for responding!

Update: Here is a link to the auction with pictures:

Hmm, I have never seen that before, and I wandered around the old GW site quite a bit.

It appears that the walls in that auction are different from the plan, but the base is very similar to what is shown in the codex.

Ok I tracked down some additional info.

The chapel in the DA Codex is called "The Rock" created by Mike McVey. It's not like the one shown in the auction. I was incorrect about that. GW confirmed today they used to have the plan up on the old website but the CSR said he doesn't have access to the plan any longer.

I sent an inquiry to Mr. McVey, just in case he might have it.

Incidentally there are pictures of "The Rock" in White Dwarf 195.

Check this site.

It says The Rock is at Games Workshop museum.

Yeah the temple plans I seek are not the Rock.

The temple plans used to exist on the old GW site and were for a different structure.

Initial post updated. The model was the DA Monestary.

See the internet archive links.

I would be really, really interested in getting a copy of these templates too - hopefully someone has them and they're not completely lost to time.

Ok! I got the plans today.

Here are some pictures from another website that will help:
