malika666 Posted May 23, 2013 Share Posted May 23, 2013 All I've got on Eidolon at the moment is that he's got a big hammer. Anybody got more info on how the character looks like, how is armour is decorated, etc? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
awfulawful Posted May 23, 2013 Share Posted May 23, 2013 He has a big scar on his neck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roninmodern Posted May 23, 2013 Share Posted May 23, 2013 I always picture the helmet on the Dark Angels captain model as perfect for him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
malika666 Posted May 23, 2013 Author Share Posted May 23, 2013 He has a big scar on his neck. I remember that, but what about his earlier years, when the Legion was still loyal? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

malika666 Posted May 23, 2013 Author Share Posted May 23, 2013 It's from the cardgame if I'm not mistaken. He looks horrible in that picture, totally not how I imagined Eidolon, he looks like Guile from Street Fighter. Is there any info in the early HH novels about Eidolon's appearance?

Vile Siren Posted May 23, 2013 Share Posted May 23, 2013 Could have sworn he has long white hair like Fulgrim but I have no source on me at the moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He looks horrible in that picture, totally not how I imagined Eidolon, he looks like Guile from Street Fighter. Is there any info in the early HH novels about Eidolon's appearance? That's what most TT models look like anyways ... short, squat, ugly. With Arnold Schwarzenegger hair ... always the Arnold hair. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

depthcharge12 Posted May 24, 2013 Share Posted May 24, 2013 Oddly enough I always imagined him bald, what with a full head of hair for an astartes becoming exceedingly rare. Though who knows, maybe rogaine was lost around the heresy which led to increased baldness in codex marines. If he does have hair it would probably be a long silver or blonde hair.

Kol Saresk Posted May 24, 2013 Share Posted May 24, 2013 Not necessarily. Granted, the gene-seed does a lot to overwrite genetics but not always to the same extent. It's possible that Eidolon's hair color could naturally be black at the roots, fade into brown and then have blonde highlights that end in white tips. Be a pain to paint, but it could exist.

malika666 Posted May 28, 2013 Author Share Posted May 28, 2013 By the way, does anybody know whether Eidolon is from Terra or Chemos? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vile Siren Posted June 4, 2013 Share Posted June 4, 2013 This is a short description of his armor "Despite Tarvitz's reservations, Eidolon carried a powerful natural authority about him, accentuated by magnificent armour with such an overabundance of gilding that the purple colors of the legion were barely visible." pg.38, Galaxy In Flames..Hope this helps in some way!

Aegnor Posted June 4, 2013 Share Posted June 4, 2013 http://potterpedia.wikispaces.com/file/view/lucius_malfoy3.jpg/81869941/lucius_malfoy3.jpg For some reason, I always imagined him with the face of this actor in The Patriot, but Eidolon would probably have the white hair of the sons of the Phoenix. Actually, if they were ever going to do a (regularly fantasy casted in threads in this subforum) Heresy movie, Jason Isaacs as Lucius Malfoy would be nearly perfect for Fulgrim.

Durfast Spiritwolf Posted June 4, 2013 Share Posted June 4, 2013 I'd imagined him bald too, with his napper covered in writing. The baldness is backed up by a sketch in Mark of Calth, p.39, but no writing... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe, but Id say he would fit Lucius better, this is my own opinion since thats how I imagined Lucius all the way through the books. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The descriptor for the image on pg 39 of Mark of Calth says that it is Kor Phaeron. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
