I appreciate it. In a self serving way, I kind of had to come back to the project to save myself some money. I was getting too close to paying $40 for a Lazarus Dark Angel model to convert into a Winged Hussar! I can get a full liter of resin for that price! I won't get around to supporting the full plate of models tonight but I did do some test images to show the different scales.



The bigger fig is the full primaris size matched to my Amulius model (43mm to the top of the head iirc). It looks absolutely huge compared with the normal human (my stand in fig from Star Wars... a Clone War Republic Training Sergeant/Mandalorian) but ironically he is exactly as big as he should be given that he is a steroid superfreak in 8ft tall power armor (and that's just for normal space marines whereas primaris are supposed to be even bigger). It's just not practical for me on the RPG tabletop so I'll be trying out the 35mm scale beside him instead that will fit comfortably on a 25mm base. Compared with the preview pic above, he is closer to the original 3d model that I start with once I'm done building/converting. I learned from my samurai model print that he needs a 5% xy plane thickness boost relative to the height to get the bulkiness of the primaris. He is missing that but instead got a full 5% xyz boost on the head and helmet. The blade of the sabre got a 25% boost in width as it would have been closer to a rapier at that scale with the printer resolution and broken very easily. I have my doubts about whether or not the shoulder and shin icons will resolve as they don't look very deep shrunk down. It continues to amaze me how much you have to change from a normal looking 3d model to get something practical on the tabletop.

Well, apparently GW thinks they own the Winged Hussars and took down my model.
