Daaamn those Minotaur characters are some -nice- sculpts!

[Faultie]

If anybody is going to any FW events this year, I would pay monies to them if they would get me that Imperial Enforcer and ship him to me. Multiple monies, even!

[Typhonian]

I'd love to see more Hellenic designs from FW, those Minotaur models look amazing.

[Kawauso]

Oh my God-Emperor- Ivanus Enkomi (the Chaplain) has his auxiliary grenade launchers built into his crozius arcanum. He has a rod of office that shoots grenades. Awesome.

[MarneusCalgar]

Holy...

They are amazing!!!

[Deadestdai]

Any chance someone could post pics, my work servers block UK and Euro sites.... :mad:

[albertsevil]

Very nice, thanks for the heads-up. Glad to see Forge World are still pumping out models to support older Imperial Armour books.

It means I now have a choice as to covert a Malakim Phoros or wait a little longer...

whoops. that didn't work.

[Zuul]

I like that I now have rules for my old metal rapier.:)

[Brakkart]

Those are some very nice models, as an Imp Fists player I'm jealous of those two characters the Minotaurs are getting! Still think I'll have to console myself with a battery of Rapiers, it does say the Fists use them a lot, and so they must be mine!

Moloc looks like he's getting ready to fight in the shade.

[Cvife]

love them all, is it me or is Asterion Moloc wearing Cataphract armour? perhaps a good sign for the future. Also I wast one or three of those rapiers for my heresy era death guard... NOW!

[Lucian Kain]

Nice,Cataphract Armour? Is it better than normal Terminator armour?Looks good anyway.

[MercyKiller]

I love these models! Forgeworld really makes some great character models.

[Headrush]

Absolutely gorgeous. I'm working on ways to make them work in a BA army!

[Bigred]

After 10+ years of Ultramarine led Roman Space Marines, its nice to see someone over at GW cracking open the Art History books.

Those Minotaurs are the first Greek Space Marines we've seen out of the Studio.

Those are effectively Greek Hoplites in power armor (right down to the oversized shield and spear). Beautiful work.

[amrogers3]

I'm going to adepticon this year. I could pick you up something and ship it to you. Let me know what you need.

[T-ORK-amada]

I'm hoping some of the other Badab Wars characters turn out as well as these did. They are amazing.

[rebvamp13]

wow they cool but when they going to put up some cool necron stuff or dark eldars

[El_Davo]

now only if they can come out with the rest of the badab war minis. that would be great. thanks forge world

I was told the last time I participated in Armies On Parade two years ago that though I didn't win the GW studio really liked my work. I can't help but feeling that my Spears Of Ares Space Marines and custom converted Chapter Master were the inspiration for much of the new Minotaurs Forge World items. My Dreadnought was even featured on GW What's New Today at www.games-workshop.com/gws/content/blogPost.jsp?aId=9200023a

Pics of the hoplite terminators and Greek themed Marines I started a few years ago:

I think Asterion is going to have to become my new Terminator Librarian (Storm Shield/Force Staff), the horned skull used to signify the rank of the librarian.
Ivanus is going to stay as a Reclusiarch quite nicely, though I might have to greenstuff/file the minotaur icon off

[Spartiatis]

Great themed army there Brass Scorpiion
