Heeeeere's the Emperor! Don't judge too harshly, this is only a quick couple of hours paintjob. He's just been sitting in my "box of crap to paint" forever.

Looks pretty good to me! Love the armour in particular.

Out of interest, what head is that? He looks a tiny bit like Michael Jackson, before he got really scary. (EDIT: that's not meant to be an insult or anything- just what I thought of when I saw it. )

Nice I like it

Armor looks great, as do the weapons. Did you do the conversion on it, or was it like that when you got it? The face looks a bit like Micheal Jackson though.

For some weird reason, his face reminds me of Michael Jackson.

Love the armor and the pose.

I'm also curious, what head did you use?

Now that I look at the pics, he does kinda look like Michael Jackson, except with power claws instead of a glove. In reality he's not so Mike-ish, but the gold of the armor gave his face a kind of yellow, washed out look in the photos. The whole thing is part of a kit I got from some indy miniature company whose name I can't remember. I did my own sculpt a while back, but I have to find the pics of that one. Either way, this one is for play, and the other was a GD entry.

EDIT: Here's my other one. Pretty much a full sculpt, aside from the obvious St. Celestine cape.

No wonder he had his 20 kids taken away from him ...

/duck

you guys are living in the past, your false emperor is a witherd husk confined to his rocking chair.

If I'm not mistaken, that withered husk is doing a pretty good job of confining the chaos gods to the warp. We can't forget of course, that he's pretty much the CPU for the astronomicon which is no small feat either.

Oh, poor deluded mortal you are so very mistaken, your paltry "wizard" has never come in contact with the masters of the multiverse, why he was crippled by an insignificant play-thing - his own favourite son.
Should the powers wish they could sweep away your galaxy with but a thought. Your end however will not be so swift, you are all toys of the almighty powers and it amuses them to prolong the mortal races anguish through out the millenia savouring each individual morsel of soul stuff in its turn.

I like the one you made. May be a bit more static looking, but impressive none the less. Is the new one the Kabuki model?

Nice models but shouldnt that read pussies?
If i could re-ignite my interest in 40k (unlikely) i would like a gang of Deamon Primarchs.

There's a lot of hating going on in here. Whether you're pro-Imperium or pro-Chaos, we all need just understand that the Tyranids are going to devour the galaxy anyway.

The model looks epic though i agree with some of the others it does look slightly Michael Jackson.
Also the universe at large is probably comming to an end so it doesn't really matter who is best. Everyone is gonna die.

holy! nice job,not perticulary crazy about the face,but overall... NICE!

I like the power fist/claw. I like the tones of gold that were used, nice work

Yeah, says in the codex that Phoenix Lord Fuegan is going to be the last thing to die at the battle at the end of creation (the Rhana Dhandra), so that means Eldar still win.l

Jesus... I'm just going to paint his power claw white and put some glitter on it. Although at least the Emperor is still somewhat alive. Michael Jackson isn't even a little bit.

That would make me lol.
