Sulemain Posted April 14, 2020 Share Posted April 14, 2020 I've always thought he looked a bit like Ferrus Mannus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ishagu Posted April 14, 2020 Share Posted April 14, 2020 He would make a fine Guilliman, or another Ultramarine. I think his features would suit a refined son of Macragge. BLACK BLΠFLY 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BLACK BLΠFLY Posted April 14, 2020 Share Posted April 14, 2020 I can see him as Invictus. Ishagu 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_son_of_Dorn Posted April 14, 2020 Share Posted April 14, 2020 The titan? Or if he dyed his hair white Rogal Dorn. Now i just need to see chris hemsworth as the Lion and Terry Crews as Vulkan (break dancing robot mode) Quixus 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MegaVolt87 Posted April 14, 2020 Share Posted April 14, 2020 I think he should be the new Emperor so he can replace the other guy in memes, plus he looks way closer to the artwork too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
b1soul Posted April 15, 2020 Share Posted April 15, 2020 He'd make a good Cato Sicarius Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NemFX Posted April 15, 2020 Share Posted April 15, 2020 Well, it'll be interesting if anything comes of it. Right now he's painted part of a custodes head. Slave to Darkness, Mazer Rackham and Dosjetka 3 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Waking Dreamer Posted April 15, 2020 Share Posted April 15, 2020 Officially my new favourite actor! When it comes to endearing to a niche group of nerdom/geek culture he definitely is up there. Sign him up to work with a Keanu Reeves in a new Netflix series (what IP would you want to see!?), and you've got a slam dunk on guaranteed viewership!

Dosjetka Posted April 16, 2020 Share Posted April 16, 2020 =][= Please keep in mind that this is a Warhammer 40'000 forum; thus, please stick to discussing Henry Cavill and his involvement with this game/IP and not any other. Thank you. =][= Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slave to Darkness Posted April 16, 2020 Share Posted April 16, 2020 (edited) Sorry to be that guy but I dont see the big deal. Loads of celebs are into the hobby. Now if he donated a mini he painted to Poppys Angels for a raffle or just did some charity work within the hobby then yea Ill be all happy n . As it stands I really dont understand how the fanbase is all a tizzy. Im probably gonna get hung for this comment but I dont even think he can act. No doubt Im gonna get loads of comments telling me Im wrong and why he is the greatest actor ever and why him posting one picture is the greatest thing to happen to this hobby since 8th ed.

MegaVolt87 Posted April 16, 2020 Share Posted April 16, 2020 It's more to do with how famous influential people like Mr Cavill legitimize the hobby to be more mainstream, like how video games became mainstream now. Also it's not about having the right opinion, it's having one you either identify with or not. Grim Dog Studios 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_son_of_Dorn Posted April 16, 2020 Share Posted April 16, 2020 (edited) Warhammer is less of a "Dirty secret" these days. I ask all the guy's i work with to get me warhammer vouchers for my birthday and stuff, was funny learnt my colleague was a LOTR enthusiast to, actually gave us something to talk about and bond over.

lhg033 Posted April 17, 2020 Share Posted April 17, 2020 My wife pointed the link out to me. She obviously knows about my 'preferences' (read as 'geeky' hobbying to use her terms) Nice to see some positive mainstream attention - doesn't really matter to me who it was doing it.

Dark Shepherd Posted April 17, 2020 Share Posted April 17, 2020 Hes probably the most famous person who is visibly/actively into 40k/GW So a big name actor who has some scifi/fantasy pull being into it is a big deal. Plus we live in slow hobby news times Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No doubt Im gonna get loads of comments telling me Im wrong and why he is the greatest actor ever and why him posting one picture is the greatest thing to happen to this hobby since 8th ed. I think it's because he is unashamedly open about his hobbies. I personally think he's a level headed and open gamer who is a good role model for those that feel a bit embaressed or awkward talking about their hobbies regardless of their age. People are just excited at the unexpected reveal that he not only paints 40k stuff but revealed the faction he is into and is into the lore. It's always cool to see someone influencial turn out to be just like the rest of us. It makes them more relatible. It's been the same for years any time anyone famous has come out and shown support for the hobby, I remember being shocked when Brian May and his son had a tour of the studio. Plus we just officially just got Superman on team 40k... :tu: Grim Dog Studios 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apparently it was well-known in the west-coast Warhammer circles that sometimes Robin Williams would just.... Show up for games at stores or events with his Eldar. His Hot Pink and Yellow Eldar. Because of course Robin Williams would have Hot Pink and Yellow Eldar :lol: ranulf the revenant and Warsmith Annüss 2 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
