Primarchs Made Easy: Fulgrim Transfigured for Horus Heresy! (he's not that bad!)

[@Joe_Murph]

Transporting him won't be that difficult - get a big plastic box, a steel sheet and put some magnets in his base. I do it for all my armies.

[@MediocreHobbies]

Exactly. There is always a way. I mean people bring titans to games.

[@ismael9914]

Yeap at most I would put magnets on the wings so it fits no problem

[@colinplatt1963]

Brilliant video! I don't think I'll do Fulgrim, but it is important that it underlined the message from your Guilliman video: patience overcomes detail! As long as you take your time, all minis will come out looking great! Thanks for the continuing inspiration!

[@MediocreHobbies]

So very true pal. And so important

[@kombatwombat6579]

"Big, bold and beautiful" is my new slogan. This was a great video not just in techniques, also in concept. Thanks!

[@MediocreHobbies]

Very kind pal. Thank you.

[@dracosummoner]

Thank you so much for this!! You made this look so easy, I'm considering getting this for a dining-room centerpiece!

[@MediocreHobbies]

That’s sounds really cool pal. Glad the video helped.

[@Jason-man-in-black]

Great job done on him Andy, came out brilliantly. I entirely agree with you I’d much prefer they create the most amazing minis possible and let us worry about transporting them, speaking of which to transport I’d go with magnets in a dedicated very useful box, at the point your gonna spend over £170 on a mini and spend the time to build and paint him a few more quit to transport him correctly and safely don’t seem like any kind of hard decision.

[@MediocreHobbies]

Yep I agree 100%

[@leestride2285]

I did not have as great success painting him, went to prime dropped him and he broke into about 7 pieces, one wing tip lost to the ether, but fortunately all breaks were clean - body came off clean, wings both clean and rear tail section also stayed together but came off the primary base bit, but now 8 hours later he is back together, primed and at least 60% of the way to being done! Cheers again for the tutorial

[@MediocreHobbies]

Oh god, I’m sorry that happened 😨 sounds like he’s all good now for the most part! Good luck with the painting and hold tight to him 😄

[@merrurin]

Magnificent! Truly gorgeous. I hope you don't mind if I yoink your scheme. I'm not the greatest painter and it seems that contrast does wonders for this model. Didn't expect it could look this pretty with the limited amount of paints you used (complement). I might start with a few emperors children before this one though... just to warm up a bit beforehand... it still looks quite intimidating. I know it's a weird question, but do you have a tip for how long I should wait before attempting this project?

[@MediocreHobbies]

Of course. Yoink away Pal. That’s why I make the videos.

[@battspaints]

He's 403 Australian dollary doos. I wish i could justify that

[@MediocreHobbies]

Ouch.

[@lawsonkirkland3718]

Another amazing Primarch Andy! This video took away all doubts I had of Fulgrim. Out of curiosity,. do you plan on releasing a video on how you did Magnus?

[@MediocreHobbies]

The one shown in the video was down for me by a friend. So I’m not sure if I would ever do another.

[@ger5956]

I keep laughing at: “he’s not as awkward as people think” Fulgrim; keeps being awkward 😂

[@MediocreHobbies]

Hahhaha. Very true.

[@ger5956]

@@MediocreHobbies he does look absolutely fantastic to be fair, you done a great job. I’m torn between getting him or the nids battleforce as a little Xmas present for myself haha Maybe I’ll (be forced to) let availability decide 😂

[@scroggie_mini_painting3983]

Awesome job!

[@MediocreHobbies]

Cheers.

[@leestride2285]

Hey, another quality video from yourself, your tutorial for Horus Transcended really helped me out earlier this year and this will do the same for Fulgrim! As an aside if you were paint like a pale yellow for sandstone what colours could I use to achieve that?

[@MediocreHobbies]

That’s great to hear pal. Thank you.

[@patimusprime72]

Simply amazing. He looks glorious. As he should. I'd love to paint him but i just can't justify the expense of a forgeworld kit like that unfortunately. That's OK though. I'll admire yours instead.

[@MediocreHobbies]

Cheers pal. Maybe you will grab him in the future.

[@acledfloyd]

I would LOVE to see you do Mortarion.

[@MediocreHobbies]

He is on my list pal. I promise.

[@tjdoc143]

Great work as always! It’s a shame that forge world still has the same quality issues they’ve had for 20 years.

[@MediocreHobbies]

It’s actually very very good quality. Such a nice model.

[@MenagerieAU]

Great video mate

[@MediocreHobbies]

Thanks so much man!

[@ovan2190]

He looks fantastic! It makes me hopeful that when the Emperor's Children come out that we get a plastic Fulgrim as well. As long as it looks different so that they both feel unique Great video as always Andy

[@MediocreHobbies]

Ye I’m hoping for the same pal.

[@bigfluff73]

Amazing!

[@MediocreHobbies]

Thanks man

[@nickdavis5420]

So interesting but I can’t justify getting him as the four the main hoard of my cats would instantly destroy him .

[@MediocreHobbies]

HahahHa cabinets my friend. You need cabinets.

[@jaanikaapa6925]

How are the wings attached? For transporting and painting magnets could be great.

[@MediocreHobbies]

I just glued everything together, it’s great resin so Im not afraid of it getting damaged

[@metajock]

That's a beautiful fig, fantastic paint job. A Nurgle boy myself, but have to admire the beauty of those guys.

[@MediocreHobbies]

Thanks so much man, I’m also more nurgle based but I couldn’t resist painting up this guy to see how he’d turn out

[@nickhughes8533]

Lovely video and great paint job. Could I ask exactly how tall is he from base to wing tip please? I have pre ordered him and trying to sort out transport now for him. Thanks again :)

[@MediocreHobbies]

I shall measure him soon.

[@nickhughes8533]

@@MediocreHobbies cheers boss, much appreciated :D

[@ongkhuongduy3498]

Can you go over how you paint the ruin structure that he was coiling on?

[@MediocreHobbies]

So i out martain texture paste on the base. And then when dry I contrast orange all over and all over the rocks. Then I drybrush ryza rust and then bone. Simple as.

[@Daedricsoulslayer]

I recently started this and some issue with contrast body stage. Do you know if there's a base paint of that purple or similar?

[@MediocreHobbies]

Yes probably. There are quite a few base purples now a days.

[@Daedricsoulslayer]

@@MediocreHobbies thanks

[@AksarOfficial]

My hands would shake constantly painting a £175 model haha

[@MediocreHobbies]

Ah they would be grand. It’s just like any other model.

[@lucadilly4852]

Is he bigger than ka’bandha?

[@MediocreHobbies]

Don’t know. I don’t have a kabandha.

[@magistrate]

Nicely done - both the painting and the commentary. My last primarch was Corvus and the jump pack was so fragile. I had to reinforce it with floral wire after breaking the left-hand wing. I'm glad to know Fulgrim is better.

[@MediocreHobbies]

Ye he scares me lol. Glad you liked it.

[@Nomad-md2wi]

This is such a magnificent model, can't really call Fulgrim transfigured a miniature. Nice job. Ive never worked on anything resin this size, but when i first started hearing people gripe about him, I figured it was due to disappointment that he was a forgeworld resin model instead of plastic.

[@MediocreHobbies]

People are always looking for a reason not to like something. It’s strange.

[@BlackHoleEye]

It looks really good. Very lucky on that purple. Two things I would do differently is to paint his armour silver before adding Luxion purple. Just to give the armour a different sheen from the scales. Also give the wings a drybrush to lighten up the membrane of the wings a bit.

[@MediocreHobbies]

Can’t wait to see your one like that. Please share when you do.

[@GalacticD12]

Surely mortarion for next demon primarch? 👉👈

[@MediocreHobbies]

Maybe…

I'm with you on having them focus on making amazing models than making them good to transport. He looks amazing and you did such a good job painting him!

Far to kind pal.

Great video: Thanks for the easy and accessible tutorial. I have an EC army-going to get this model now.

[@MediocreHobbies]

Sounds awesome pal.

[@jamie1962]

Hey i am so sorry to comment this but what did he say about the priming? A coating of chaos black and a heavy ??????? Of grey seer?

[@MediocreHobbies]

Never apologise for asking questions! A heavy zenithal-spray from above to create light/shadow areas! kzbin.info/www/bejne/a2KrqWSridKnidksi=DPVY3coOJ_WRbAi5

[@Theredsunrising]

So how are they going to navigate the daemon primarchs having 2 separate models?

[@MediocreHobbies]

No idea!

[@ryanbuckman1731]

This is honestly like painting morathi, just a bit smaller

[@MediocreHobbies]

About them same size.

[@Thedagda801]

Wonderful model, but Fulgrim always brings a tear to my eye!

[@MediocreHobbies]

Same pal.

[@Rat2.]

Hey love the paint job what is a list of all the paints you used?

[@MediocreHobbies]

I don’t always have time to do paint lists with so many uploads, sorry, but they’re all listed in the video!

[@kid1978ify]

Is this 3d printed? If so what size is it

[@MediocreHobbies]

It’s from Warhammer, not 3D printed

[@longle88]

I’ll just wait for the plastic kit

[@MediocreHobbies]

Sounds good pal

[@JayJapanB]

You're quick! Turned out great

[@MediocreHobbies]

Cheers pal.

[@etiennegarant7545]

But what about the lance?

[@MediocreHobbies]

I’m sure you can figure it out with what I have showed here. All trim gold shaft black and blade silver. Should be easy enough.

[@etiennegarant7545]

Turned out great, will wait to see if someone figures out how to make the wings separable either by heavy pinning or magnets because that guy is going to break in half fr fr.

It’s not impossible for sure.

not a difficult model however ever second line was a polite fecking Fulgrim. :)

I'm kind of surprised people are worried about transporting this model because models like archeon

plastic vs resin makes a big difference for transporting though. But he will be okay if you're careful
