Firepower Posted June 26, 2017 Share Posted June 26, 2017 Other than the Inceptors being literally a Space Marine Crisis Suit in concept. And largely aesthetic. :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ciler Posted June 26, 2017 Share Posted June 26, 2017 Must...have...skull head. The half one would be perfect for one I've been wanting to make. Lord knows what those heads will cost on bits sites.I might nab one for a chaplain as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lippy Posted June 26, 2017 Share Posted June 26, 2017 I like each and every Character model they've released, but I still can't see one leading my Templars in the field. Maybe the Ancient could feature... Though again, my headcannon cant see a new pretender carrying the crusade's banner. Surely he hasn't earned that honour straight out of the test tube? When I first saw the Reivers I instantly hated, the skulls especially. But I've since cooled on them. Still... not sure I'd be getting those, especially seeing as they're snap fit and not poseable. Hopefully they'll release MultiPart kits later, like they did with AOS. Honda 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sete Posted June 26, 2017 Share Posted June 26, 2017 I have been quiet in the shadows waiting for proper kits to be released. So far I'm not impressed. I loath the reivers. The captain is another big standard Ultramarine/Vannila dude Librarian is the best one overall cause he has some robes on him at least. Shame it's a filthy witch. The waiting will continue.

Machine God Posted June 26, 2017 Share Posted June 26, 2017 (edited) The half grenades on the chest just look stupid @AndrewChristlieb - No its worse than that. It looks like the grenades are full sized and fit in grenade indentions moulded into the armour. They'll be bullet traps when the grenades are used up and also the armour will be thinner there. Imagine what happens when a Krak Grenade there gets hit! Edit: Spelling.

Kontakt Posted June 26, 2017 Share Posted June 26, 2017 A note on the grenades on the chest - The tempestus scion models are intended to model their grenades attached to their chest (at least in the assembly booklet). The grenades aren't half grenades, and can be left out. This snap fit stuff is not what many people are interested in, and shortcuts like that are disappointing.

Marshal_von_Speer Posted June 26, 2017 Author Share Posted June 26, 2017 I think it is truly the way someone mentioned in one of the early Primaris threads (guess it was Brohter Christopher). Primaris are intendet to attract new crowd to the hobby: Badass videogame/modern military look, easy to build, larger models with easy to paint surfaces, fewer details. I have to be honest, I totally fall for that videogame/military look and really like those "Reivers". Fortunately I have enough confidence in my modelling skills to turn them in to something more templar (which does not mean that they'll look good ).

SWORD BROTHER RYAN Posted June 27, 2017 Share Posted June 27, 2017 Ok, looks like they're going to be releasing SOME of my wish list for these guys, but snap fit? Come on GW! Reivers seem more our style, but I'll need more on them before I run out and pick up a set. Let's see how this plays out. Absolute worst case scenario, at least we'll have some good looking skull helms to play with! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Spanish Inquisitor Posted June 27, 2017 Share Posted June 27, 2017 I like these models but sneaking out is really not Black Templar style. Maybe will use them as true scale neophytes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marshal_von_Speer Posted July 3, 2017 Author Share Posted July 3, 2017 (edited) So I gave the Primaris a go and these are the results so far (note: they're supposed to be tabletop-pretty): Edited July 3, 2017 by Marshal_von_Speer Bruder Jakob and Marshal Mattias 2 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marshal Wolfhart Posted July 3, 2017 Share Posted July 3, 2017 Inceptors seem, as expected, much better without those puny shields. I applaud thee for the pose on the one without the flying stand, a true eyecatcher! If i ever get to build any of these kharadron overlords primaris i'll have to steal that... ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kastellan Kong Posted July 4, 2017 Share Posted July 4, 2017 I don't like the fluff for the primaris marines... but I figured that having working anatomy will help when fighting heretics, so my crusade is going FULL primaris. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bruder Jakob Posted July 4, 2017 Share Posted July 4, 2017 So I gave the Primaris a go and these are the results so far (note: they're supposed to be tabletop-pretty): they look so much better with their head armor thing removed!
