This is worth a necro imho, I would never had seen the awesomeness of this thread otherwise.

Hope the OP is still alive and well and cranking out more awesome.

Indeed. There are still some more to be done.

AMAZING!

As an ex-Royal Navy Officer, I have to admit the Grand Harbour of Valletta is my favourite port on Earth. We were always treated like Royalty when we arrived and the local ladies were beautiful and very "Accommodating". I was even on the Ship (Mighty Sausage - HMS Cumberland) that shamefully killed "Oliver Reid" when he was filming Gladiator, after that they got t-shirts that said "We Drank Oliver Reid six feet under the table" (Blackest of Black humour). I could see myself living out my days quite happily there.

Okay, before I become all misty eyed, I have to say your Knight Titan is the best and probably the most to scale I have seen.

Thank you all for the kind comments ! And yes I am still alive, just been busy with other projects and a new job. mwnciboo - it's nice to see that some people still like my tiny island and yes the local ladies are very accomodating still thank the emperor Oliver Reid died as he lived by the bottle, a happy and interesting fellow - I still visit that bar in Valletta on occasion -

Back to the thread I got plenty of new minis to take pictures of if you all wanna see them still

Regards AF

I think the Royal Navy should move from Gibraltar to Malta. We are much closer to the Maltese People, we have a deep bond and also a very clear link. To many in Britain Malta is a by word for Endurance. I really wish I had gone in on HMS ILLUSTRIOUS because it is considered the #1 Port visit, 2nd is Fleet Week in NYC which is just amazing.

I forgot about the TEMPLAR connection on Malta as well, which to us Wargaming types is pretty significant and very interesting.



I have been wanting to do one of these for a while.http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/429654.page

I think the Maltese people would be glad to have the Roval Navy here. The bond we have with the UK is an old and strong one. As for the knight titan, did you ever get to build one ? Sometimes the odd one pops up on ebay for some ridiculous price

I joined recently and JUST looked through this thread. All these models are fantastic! I especially like Vulkan, possibly one of my favourite Primarchs, after Jaghatai.

I'll admit I'm not too keen on the Emperor though, but that might just be me; I tend to dislike every model of the Emperor I see because it's nigh-impossible to recreate the epicness of this image http://wh40k.lexicanum.com/mediawiki/images/d/dd/Horus_vs_The_Emperor.jpg

But you definitely made one of the best attempts!

FRICKIN FANTASTIC
please pm with detail on how you made the lion

I see that at least my threadomancy was worth it In reality I did it to pay homage to my friend's nice blog as being new to the site I had never seen many of his awesome models (primarchs) and this was the only way to give him praise after I discovered this thread. So please excuse the threadomancy for this one time and apologies for all those who felt offended by such an act.

I'm glad to see your work isn't dead, and I'm sure we would all love to see what you have been up to.

BTW im very very impressed with your models

Just found this thread......

Life complete

Hi everyone, as promised before I have completed my last 2 primarchs - The Khan and Lorgar - both are amazing sculpts that were a pleasure to paint.

So without further ado I give you Lorgar Aurelian





The Khan's photos should be up soon

Enjoy !!! And a thanks a lot for the continued support guys !!!

Those look really good, I think you did a greatjob. I look forward to seeing the rest.

Very well done. I hate to nitpick but shouldn't Lorgar have tattoos on his face?

Yes fluffwise his body was covered in golden lettering including his face - I tried painting him with a golden face but then went back to flesh - I couldnt reproduce a golden tattooed face well so I went with flesh

And he still looks ace - well done!

Very nice work. Loving the effort going into this. Very cool.

Also, insanely jealous of the view from you window. Looks like Malta will be added to the "must visit one of these days" list.

Keep up the good work.

Nice job

This is all soooooooo amazing!!!

Nice work!
Quick question:
The Perturabo miniature from Hell Dorado, Augustinus Raimond, how much larger is he than a 40k mini?
Could I use him in an Inquistitorial 40k army, without him standing enormously tall compared to, say, a terminator?
If possible, could you take a picture for me to compare him with a GW 40k model?
Also, what did you exactly do, while converting him? (backpack, cape from...?)
If someone could answer those questions, that would be awesome.
Cheers,

MC

Hope this helps you mate

Yeah, thanks a lot!
Any remarks on the remodelling/conversion work?
Also, if I might ask, where did you buy it? Shop? Site?
MC

It was quite a simple conversion really, a fw bolter, fw raven guard thunder hammer, chaos terminator lord cloak, space marine backpack and some searchlight from my bits box and a tiny bit of green stuff to close the gaps. I got it from a seller on ebay but im sure you will find it in online shops around.

Thanks, was wondering whether the cloak was greenstuffed or stolen from some kit.
Will also order from ebay, cheap and easy.
I'm impressed with your models, subscribed...

Edit: one more question, how is the quality of the cast/model, when compared to GW metal minis?

Well I can answer that one since I ordered the Agustus Raimond mini after I saw it used in the pic above, the casting itself is fine its a full metal fig with little to no mold lines, the cape shown above looks similar to the one included but seems to have some green stuff added to look bigger.

I love this thread so much.

I'd love to know what each of the Primarchs models are based off of. Thanks!
Your models are unbelievable by the way!

That was an hour well spent reading the posts and most of all admiring the work you put into each primarch model.

Well done sir. Now all that is missing is Khan and then you have one hell of a battle that will be way fun to play. And yes, I am jealous.

Great work.

Thank you very much guys, the last primarch done is the Khan - primarch to the White Scars Legion. I am already working on another version of Corax since the model I built was sold in favour of a newer,better version




Enjoy !!!
