Delta.Skies Posted May 3, 2018 Share Posted May 3, 2018 has anybody seen a conversion or an updated kitbash of this guy. Saw the old model but feel like it didnt do justice to his artwork and just wanted to know has anyone encountered a conversion of him?

duz_ Posted May 3, 2018 Share Posted May 3, 2018 I have not seen a conversion of him, particularly since he no longer has rules and well has finished his service to the Emperor RIP ;)I would be curious to see any too, there are plenty of cheap ones going Ebay though last time I checked. I plan on painting mine at some point and trying to use him as a Tempestor Prime or something of the likes :D Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/346875-lord-solar-macharius/#findComment-5071783 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hatarus Posted May 4, 2018 Share Posted May 4, 2018 i'm kinda working on my own take of a Kitbash of him but it's something that is taking a bit of time for what i want to do once i get it right i'll diffidently share it Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/346875-lord-solar-macharius/#findComment-5071927 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Delta.Skies Posted May 4, 2018 Author Share Posted May 4, 2018 I feel ya. The only thing I could think of is empire bitz to fill out most of it. Probably some green stuff skills as well Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/346875-lord-solar-macharius/#findComment-5071984 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably some green stuff skills as well most of the parts i need are from Warhammer Fantasy and Scion kits one of the big problems is finding the right kind of sword for him and then there is doing his helmet which is honestly going to be the hardest part Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/346875-lord-solar-macharius/#findComment-5072331 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ranulf Posted May 5, 2018 Share Posted May 5, 2018 Normally I'm a fan of 2nd edition sculpts for the nostalgia factor, but the Macharius miniature is just u-g-l-y. That said, a great painter can work wonders, such as: http://www.coolminiornot.com/forums/showthread.php?15424 I'd love to see a resculpt to match the artwork on Fist of Demetrius: -Ran Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/346875-lord-solar-macharius/#findComment-5073216 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Major_Gilbear Posted May 5, 2018 Share Posted May 5, 2018 If you can get it (because it's in and out of stock in the GW store), the old fantasy Empire General is a perfect kit to use as a base. https://www.games-workshop.com/en-GB/Empire-General Add in Scion parts to suit, and you're done. :D @ Ran: The reason Macharius looks a bit derpy is because he's a late 3E sculpt. GW put out a frankly heroic number of special characters and accompanying sculpts in 3E and 4E, so it was always unrealistic that many would receive Jes Goodwin's direct attention! ;) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/346875-lord-solar-macharius/#findComment-5073237 Share on other sites More sharing options...
