I had alot of fun making this, I had built it for a prim-arch contest that never really happened, on the bright side I did end up with a cool model! The base has small light bulbs built into the windows for an added effect, pluss I just love to make things light up. smile

I modeled it after part of Corax's story just after the Horus heresy ended; he chose to euthanize the marines who where hastily created during that time and begged the emperor for forgiveness, for what he had to do to his brothers.

Great diorama, but one tiny little note is that aren't Primarchs quite a lot taller than your model?

Love the detail on the wings aswell.

Very nicely done. Fits the remorseful feel that Corax had after the Heresy, what with nearly destroying the chapter and all. Nice details with the tears and suck.

i have not read past the first book of the H.H. yet, but i like the diorama and the lights are a nice touch. Two thumbs, five stars, and a well deserved congratz on a great job.

Lovely and befitting of the fluff.

Thanks smile It's true some have been modeled larger then a normal model in the past, when I read the fluff on a few of the primarchs not many stuck me as larger then any one else as far as a marine goes anyhow.

The posing is very nice. Have you considered recessing the spot where the model goes in the diorama so the base is level with the floor?
