The final photos for the Iron Hands Legion Primarch, Ferrus Manus. This is my first Primarch project and i'm relieved to have one under my belt. I own Angron and Fulgrim but indecision has forced me to put off the projects to later dates. Still wrapped up in the enthusiasm of Games Day I broke the seal and put primer to resin before I could let doubts settle. I've written up a reflection on the piece for the blog. I hope you enjoy the pictures and any feedback would be warmly received (unless your a dick about it...)

Russ Brother 92 Posted October 3, 2013 Share Posted October 3, 2013 Absolutely gorgeous :) and I can't wait to see Erebus and Kor Phaeron finished :D Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/281371-ferrus-manus-the-gorgon-of-the-tenth-legion-iron-hands/#findComment-3484726 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ammonius Posted October 3, 2013 Share Posted October 3, 2013 WOW. I like that you have a good closeup of the face on photobucket, to better help us purge the cross-eyed FW paintjob from our memory. :) Superb job!

The_Chaplain Posted October 3, 2013 Share Posted October 3, 2013 Oh god emperor, you work fast! I cannot wait to see erebus as well, loved all the little morbid angels on his armor in the preview- but wasnt thrilled with the paintjob. Your red is beautiful so far.

Excubitor Posted October 4, 2013 Share Posted October 4, 2013 I don't like to post on painting threads because my painting is...average, but this.... Beautiful painting, amazing job! I would love to see you do the other Primarchs, they look great anyway but this....this kind of paint job makes me really, really want them (and wish I could paint them like this)! Stunning!

Grimdarkness Posted October 4, 2013 Share Posted October 4, 2013 Now i,m eager to see your fulgrim painted and placed with ferrus. Should look great.

Greyall Posted October 4, 2013 Share Posted October 4, 2013 Awesome. Also, with Kor Phaeron, I know it's an early stage, but I'd stick with that tone of grey (or make it darker) instead of FW's blander tone.

Ace Debonair Posted October 4, 2013 Share Posted October 4, 2013 A paint job worthy of a Primarch, to be sure! Excellent stuff!

terminatorAM Posted October 5, 2013 Share Posted October 5, 2013 Painting worthy of the primarch. Very well done. Do you have plans to expand on your how-to blog post? I'd love to see how you paint this black as well as on some of your other awesome minies Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/281371-ferrus-manus-the-gorgon-of-the-tenth-legion-iron-hands/#findComment-3486044 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Olgerth Istaarn Posted October 7, 2013 Share Posted October 7, 2013 Great painjob, I especially like that Ferrus' "manus" are iron all the way up into his armor rather than transition from metal to flesh around the elbows. Were Erebus' arms separate from his body and his shoulderpads or were they all molded together? Would love to know.

NemFX Posted October 8, 2013 Share Posted October 8, 2013 The model itself doesn't look how I'd imagine him to be, but it is well painted all the same.

lilloser Posted October 9, 2013 Author Share Posted October 9, 2013 I'm so happy you like the job guys thanks. The response has been pretty overwhelming for Ferrus. Next up - Erebus and Kor Phaeron, the architects of the Heresy. So the question now is would you like to see individual, stand alone threads like this going forward or a consolidated one collecting all my Heresy Era work?

Interrogator Stobz Posted October 10, 2013 Share Posted October 10, 2013 Same here; one big complilation is far easier to find and follow than heaps of little threads. Again, nice work Myles.

Conn Eremon Posted October 12, 2013 Share Posted October 12, 2013 Just please update your title for each update so we know what's what and nobody skips it thinking everyone is still talking about Primarch X. You can do this by editing the first post, which allows you to edit the thread name and tags.
