Emperor's Furor Posted August 27, 2014 Share Posted August 27, 2014 What do you think? with some green stuff work and a replacement of the head I figure he could be a pretty badass looking magnus in the middle of casting something.

Lord Commander Scrymgeour Posted August 27, 2014 Share Posted August 27, 2014 More robes, less bones and it would be sweet! Do it and show us! Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/295898-nagash-as-magnus/#findComment-3791891 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Russ Brother 92 Posted August 27, 2014 Share Posted August 27, 2014 The only reason I'd disagree is the scale - Magnus is a primarch and requires a model of that scale/size - whilst I haven't held the Nagash model (at least not the new one), I would find it unlikely that they're similar in size - however a comparison shot between Nagash and a Primarch would clear that up.

lokkorex Posted August 27, 2014 Share Posted August 27, 2014 i think nagash is near the right size, the comparison shot between him and a skeleton warrior on the GW homepage shows that he is gigantic!

I think he might be actually bigger than a standard Primarch. http://www.games-workshop.com/resources/catalog/product/600x620/99120207023_Nagash02.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/295898-nagash-as-magnus/#findComment-3792239 Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_son_of_Dorn Posted August 27, 2014 Share Posted August 27, 2014 Upon ascending to deamonhood scale might be fine, thats a cool looking bit of kit, any idea on what pieces you would be using? or are considering using?

Emperor's Furor Posted August 27, 2014 Author Share Posted August 27, 2014 It's only an idea atm, I'd use the body, but not the head or the bone loin cloth, I think I'd swapped that for a more conventional one. All the images I've seen of Magnus seem to h ave horns sticking out from the top of his armour, so I'd probably use 4 of the 6 that seem to be coming out of his back for them. I'd have to get hold of a primarch head and perhaps green stuff hair on to it. Fill in the torso with green stuff and then find some bits that could help make it seem more like armour rather than just having a belly of greenstuff. That's all just off the top of my head though, not sure whether I'm going to do it or not Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/295898-nagash-as-magnus/#findComment-3792273 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Russ Brother 92 Posted August 27, 2014 Share Posted August 27, 2014 Fair enough - evidently the pics I saw previously didn't do his size justice, that is one monstrous model.

Brother-Chaplain Kage Posted August 27, 2014 Share Posted August 27, 2014 I don't really see how a little greenstuff work could turn that into Magnus. I mean, Nagash is an emaciated undead and Magnus is built like a pro wrestler.

Perrin Posted August 27, 2014 Share Posted August 27, 2014 Wow. I had seen the Nagash model but had no idea it was that big! I'm not sure it would suit Magnus really, not even DP Magnus. With a little bit of cutting and green stuffing it could work as a super Necron or a C'tan. Possibly even a greater daemon. I'd say the books are the only thing on that model that would fit a DIY Magnus.

Komrk Posted August 28, 2014 Share Posted August 28, 2014 You could definitely use the blue green magic things as the equerries or whatever the TS psykers had (Aetpio was Ahriman's I believe?)
