i have to jump on the Bandwagon here, this is steller work i would like some more angels of Magnus just to see all his little detail and a close up of his face. i cannot tell you how much i love this thou great work. exalted and subbed

They're looking great, although I'm really reminded of the pillarmen from Jojo's Bizzare Adventure by your Magnus(which is far from a bad thing IMO)

Please keep up the good work

Damn, those are some sweet conversion skills. Keep it up!

Sir....take my gakking money and build me Lorgar Aurelian!

The only thing I thought looking at the first photos of magnus was 'hooves? Are you sure?' But you fixed that straight away by making him, umm, melt...

Looking forward to seeing perturabo too

Truly amazing work :-)

hey thanks! but yeah the hooves are deliberate as I referenced through many egyptian gods, and Khnum (the ram head) interested me a lot, with the horns growing out from Magnus chestplate, I thought I could add in some extra elements to make him more "daemon" than just a oversized primarch

Fantastic model, what did you use to convert it from?

Mainly bits from the tombking Necrosphinx as well as the beastmen Cygor, the hair were bits from the cauldron of blood I stole from my girlfriend XD

thank you! but it was my first time trying to sculpt with green stuff:S ended up with lots of fingerprints, thank god for agrellan earth and pumice

Brilliant work, Magnus is spot on a Perturabo is looking brilliant, he's my favourite Primarch so I will really look forward to seeing what else you do with him.

May I ask, where you got the mesh from that you've used in the terminator armour?

very nice, will magnus have wings like his epic scale counterpart?

One small lore thing, though, isn't Magnus one-eyed (as in, cyclops-like) after he becomes a Daemon primarch?

haha, I'm surprised anyone actually spotted that detail, I use leftover wireform metal mesh, it's mainly used for sculptures

Unfortunately I don't plan on adding wings to the model

I based my Magnus on his appearance from the novel "battle of the fang", and also, lore wise, when others stare at Magnus, he's constantly shifting and changing form, so that's where Creativity kicks in XD

Ahh, nice. Then I approve of your source material.

I need to see more of this!!

Thanks for that. I've looked for mesh many times and usually you can get a small square for a not inconsiderable amount of money but I have already seen a colossal amount of wireform for a very, very reasonable price; you just need to know the right words to search for so a very big thanks for pointing me in the right direction!

Really great job man your Magnus is probably the best I've seen this far and Perturabo looks just as promising. Definitively subbed here!!
Keep up the good work

You need to be sculpting for FW when they reach the Damon-Marchs

I love them both
Magnus is the best one I've seen
and Perturabo looks great so far, now was it just " oh that'll make an amazing body" and that was as far as you got or do you have a plan for the legs?

Absolutely amazing. The way you have his hands posed as if about to summon up some huge power and the size of the model/paintjob is stellar.
Magical.

Is he about to fight Bjorn in your last pic?

Any new updates?

Very awesome!

Really amazing work. I'm planning on something like this myself but looking at your work, I'm going to have to go back to the drawing board and put some work in. I'll be keeping an eye out for future work.

hey all,

been on a LONG LONG hiatus due to schoolwork and all but here's a small update.

Built this beast for a client, who requested for the wings.

Magnus Exalted






perturabo was left collecting dust after I started university,and the recent forgeworld release has got me hyped up to complete him. Hope to post again soon!

F'ing Sweet, that is.

Very cool.

Hang on a sec, I know I've got my wallet round here somewhere...

Good grief, that's incredible.

Just came across this thread as I was goggling a head for a conversion - mate that is the dogs b~#!%*&s - very, very nice work. - bet it feels worth the wait!
