God, that story sickens me every time I hear it.

Simon Egan (The sculptor) still cringes when you say "Epic Tyranids!" to him. :-)

The bikes were very lazy resculpts, but the Dreads had a little more work and were pretty cool IMO. I would have bought a blister or two of each I think.


There's always Spikey Bikes MG, those are pretty good proxies. I believe Jonluke was working on a spikey robot for Cal too, not sure what the status of that is.

Also, on the chaos rhino, land raider and predator, what was the component breakdown and how many variations where there?

The Preds and Rhinos had a 3-part hull, with spikes on the side panels. Preds had 2 sponsons and a turret as well. LR was similar to the Preds, but I can't recall if the spikes were integral or separate pieces.

I recall 4 variants of each, but that's pure memory and I make no claims that it's definitely true.

All Chaos tanks had a hull and separate sides/tracks.

The DeAynes gallery used to have some pics here:

But it's offline, and the internet archive didn't back up the Chaos page. :-/


Most of the items in that gallery link I'm familiar with, but what is this guy and are there any better pics?:

E40K Gargant prototype before the Box-Gant won out? The head certainly has an E40K feel.

That gargant is a MkII, iirc. SM1 era, ca. 1990.

Looks like a metal version of the older resin gargants to me.

Certainly not E40k though, as much of the range was designed and sculpted by Tim Adcock, and he was given quite a lot of room to reinvent many of the Epic models if IIRC. He's the man we have to thank for the boxy and riveted-strap detailing on many of the current Epic models.

So it was an unreleased version with a similar look to the resin Gargant build done by Monolith for GW? The sculpt certainly wasn't done by Kev Adams; it's far too clean & the sharp angular detail on the head is what made me think E40K.

Keep in mind I'm not 100% sure it's the MkII from that pic.

The resin gargant you reference is the MkI. The MkII followed, looking much like that pic and far less tennis-ball-with-armor-plates than the MkI.

I think the MkI and MkII both had limited releases. I've certainly seen a lot more of them floating around than the unreleased Warlord titan prototypes.

Agis Neugebauer painted the un-released epic chaos warlord. I just checked however, and I cant find any pics on his site (http://agisn.de but there are lots of other pretty pics if you're interested!)

I got the un-released chaos dreds & bikes to paint up. back in '03 I think. They were before I was properly painting on commission, were rushed, and generally I wish I could re-paint them, even if the sculpts (conversions...) weren't the greatest.

Anyway, my pics are here if they're of interest -
