Exactly what it says on the tin.

These are based on: http://www.puppetswar.com/product.php?id_product=266

Because honestly Forge World? If you're going to charge top dollar for your collector's piece models but not include a basic drop-down menu of weapon options? I'm taking my money elsewhere - you aren't the only girl at the ball. Weapon selection is a basic, BASIC fundamental of army building, and so it should be a fundamental part of your website - it is for almost everyone else worth buying from - naming no names of course *cough*PuppetswarandAnvilIndustries*cough*

Plus, the FW Myrmidions look *******ed goofy. There, I said it. I SO want to like them, but they just look dumb. Elements of their design are lovely: the robes, and hoods, and the big-*** claws, those huge power cylinders...

But overall? Goofy.

Puppetswar's Rippers look absolutely boss, and the sculpts are just incredibly crisp; can't recommend them enough.

Back on-topic, these are the final WiP shots for the conversions, which aren't terribly difficult or involved. The models are downstairs, drying from just being primed, ready for painting.

I love them! You've done an awesome job with these. That said, I bought all my myrmidons from a recaster as they sold the models individually

Very nice. You've given them just enough to make them look 40K without going overboard. I am looking forward to the painted pictures.

Finished basic paintjob, and added them to the bases I did a while ago.

You are correct: they do look awesome - even more so in real life.

But no, these are Terminator sized. Here's a size comparison shot:

I'd dig out a Centurion to show the difference, but I don't want to disturb my partner - she's asleep ATM.
