{SCULPT}Magnus the Red


Recommended Posts

Finally got the digi-cam working again, so here are some WIP of Magnus...

 

First up, how he looked before priming:

Most of him done except the staff (Need to work on robe/face/assorted bitz):

Closer look at head and shoulder pads:

The sculpt is beautiful but the paint doesn't look very chaosy.

 

There are the Legion Signs right under your nose. And Magnus doesnt need to much chaosy stuff...look at Ariman...

 

Thanks Shorty :tu: And good eye.

 

And I DID commision this version, as I was tired of the other Magnus models that made hime look like a blue one-eyed ape with wings... I see this as how Magnus chooses to present himself in front of what's left of his Legion.

 

And I wanted him big because bigger IS better ;).

looks friggen awsome, one question/obversation though... I was under the impress that Magnus had only 1 eye socket, not so much missing an eye, but his mutation was that he only had a place for 1 eye, kinda like a cyclopse.

 

Otherwise friggen sweet. Makes me want to sculpt something

I actually thought the same, but in the Horus Heresy books he's described as having two sockets, but only one eye- the other socket bisected by a nasty scar. It's assumed that once he fully became a demon prince Tzeentch made him into a "true" cyclops by centering the eye and removing the empty socket.

 

(My theory is that he sacrificed one eye a la Odin of Norse mythology...)
