A Very GrimDark Xmas: 1:1 scale Imperium Cherub tree topper

[Babbey]

Hello there, all

 

For the first time in a very long time, I took most of the holiday break off from work and managed to do a bit of hobbying for fun... My kiddo has been getting more into 40k, and they asked me if we could make a 40k cherub tree topper to replace our old, sad store-bought star...the answer obviously was "of course!"

 

1 generic plastic doll, two faux wings, and a bunch of plastic trash and hot glue later, we came up with this nightmare from the bowels of Mars.  May it haunt your dreams as it has haunted ours this holiday season...Pics and assembly video below, enjoy!

 

Here's a link to the time-lapse 1 minute assembly video

This is a disturbingly neat idea … really captures the spirit of the season …I mean setting

Oh wow, this is amazing! Very creepy. Very 40k.

Thanks all! It really was a blast to build up.  I usually don't document the process much, but I’m glad I did for this one..the assembly video was almost as fun to put together as the cherub!
