Sick model dude. Love the horns!
You should make some heretic astartes for him
More lore please
Make his legionnnn
I love speculative 2nd and 11th Primarchs.
I like the idea of one of them being the daddy of all blanks, and thus in rebellion posed so much of a threat to the emperor (big psyker) that he expunged him from all records to hide this weakness.
Alas, in destroying him, the Emperor also lost his strongest anti-chaos Primarch, contributing in part to the utter catastrophe of the heresy.
That's a very cool idea! It also works nicely from a narrative point of view where one Primarch was forced out because of something they did whereas the other was expunged because of what they are.
@@PeteTheWargamer @aidan-h3p
I made this Idea for a Only War Campaign, where 2nd Primarch is basicly Cthulhu in 40k because Blank power turned up to the eleventh degree makes everyone insane or at least thats one of my interpretations. Like all primarchs were stolen by Tzeentch and this one actually were brought to his realm, Tzeentch thought this would be his champion but as the Primarch grew up and was mutated horribly, their blank powers awokened and Tzeentch had to trap him in the material realm. A radical inquisitor discovered the site of this entrapped and sleeping super blank and thought of him a weapon against Chaos.
And at the beginning of the story the players discovered the derelict space hulk, filled with madness and death, unbeknownst what lay dormant in the bowels of the ship, fighting off survivors and trying to stay alive on this enormous vessel.
Well that’s my new 11th primarch headcanon. My 2nd primarch was a female primarch, who was expunged because the female marines began have biologically natural space marines, who were too strong and rebellious because they hadn’t undergone any indoctrination before becoming superhuman. She was expunged and the other primarchs (besides the lion, who was intended to be the Adam to her Eve) were lead to believe that only men could be space marines
Imagine instead of destroying a both primarchs ,the emperor just kept one in statis and forgot to activate him during the heresy. Imagine having an unknown primarch wake up in 40k and wondering where the hell his father and brothers are.
Ok, that got my immagination flowing. I immediately started immagining a tall, skinny (for astartes primarch) figure with oversized staff somewhat similar to what psyker or navigator might wield. Overall look of the figure itself would be something like if one mashed together a space marine, and Malthael from Diablo 3 (I think the hood with no face visible would fit a blank). Might have to make something like that one day. Thank you for sharing
Have you immagined what that primarch might look like? and did my version get even close?
So into the lore of this. Using the AoS ratmen to allude to actual genetic experimentation on rats, and therefore tieing it into 40k's genetic manipulation themes is absolute genius.
Just makes me wish we had Skaven in 40k all the more. They already fit the setting, as some low-tech, mass produced, mutant race. Evolved drastically through all the chemicals in the underhives, etc. Like Hrud, but not Hrud
@@TurbanCatMccoy I actually never liked the idea of 40k skaven, as they would overlap with so many other themes. Genestealers, nurgle, etc. But this vid totally changed my mind.
@@michaelcaterina4583I don’t think Skaven work thematically in 40K, just because all of their humor and satire is in them being a dark reflection of our society. Which is the exact same themes of the Imperium, minus the zealotry.
And you know people would get upset with how Skaven are Saturday morning cartoon villains (I say this with love)
@@beowylfenI think there's some ways to spin it. Sure the imperium is brutally industrialist like the skaven in lore, but they don't really convey that on the table top, it's all imperial guard. Sure you have genestealers for that. But, they're more about swarming your opponent than deploying giant cobbled-together machines of death that threaten your own models just as much as your opponents (I like skaven alot if you can tell)
@@justinhosler9969 Genestealers should be like that though 😢. Too bad Gw thinks we deserve shitty character spam.
This fits so well, all primarchs have an element of emperor's self imbued within each one. We haven't had a primarch that represents the scientist element of Big E so it is perfect that the 2nd or 11th would reflect that!
Devi's advocate,
Ferrus
Perterabo
Vulkan
Magnus
@@johnfraire6931Ferrus Perterabo and Vulcan were mostly mechanically focused while Magnus focused on the warp which breaks the laws of science
We haven't seen a primarch that represents the god of ruin element of the Emperor so it's even more appropriate (?)
@@japonxuperone4606An eldritch primarch, eh?
@@timtim6373I agree, ferrus would've been close because his legion seeks human perfection through using machinery.
No one does bio manipulation.
Should do a squad of termies, chosen, and standard chaos marines like this, and maybe some special characters
I was thinking the same thing, they would look great!
This!!! 🤩
Obliterator/Rat Ogre kitbash 🙏
Yes!
Oh Lordy, didn’t think my comment would have this form of effect
i'd imagine his marines have the same bronze color as that back belt panel, like minotaurs but with that nice blue-green as an accent color.
Have you been reading my notes?! That's pretty much exactly what my plan was. Bronze armour as the primary, blue green as a secondary colour with a few spots of the bright green dotted about.
@@PeteTheWargamer it's a nice color combo,.kinda gives that oxidized bronze vibe.
Some kind of warpstone weaponry would also be sick on them, just a bit more modernized than whatever Clan Skryre was cooking up 40 thousand years prior. Then again Chaos Marines running around with weapons that very well might explode on them is pretty funny.
@@PeteTheWargamer kinda reminds me of the custom siege studios space marine chapter colour scheme, where they used their colour forge spray as the base.
@@znubme Volkite weapons given a warpstone flair. Yes-yes.
Beautiful. Loved the lore!
Please consider doing some of his soldiers. Would love to see some of his perfect/imperfect soldier bois.
I can imagine them being hostile towards loyalist and traitor forces, as they'd both forgotten him. Apostus has his own agenda and no loyalties save for this Horned Rat...
_Malal smiles from within the retconnium_
Second this please! 🙏
@@jamesscott305third this - I'd love to see some Horned Rat Marines!
I think every Primarch represents a piece of Big E, and Apostos most definitely represents his scientist side moreso than any other primarch. It’s an easy part to overlook given his other more fabulous characteristics, but without his brilliant mind and experimentation, none of the Primarchs would exist, so this one fits absolutely perfectly with the whole theme. Great job!!
Pretty great idea for a primarch imo. The Emperor was a master geneticist and bioengineer. Don't really see that aspect amplified in an existing primarch. Got close with Emp's Children / Fabius, but that was more "perfection" than anything.
Thanks! That's definitely the angle I went with this. I tried to find the main specialisation of each legion and go for something new. It was surprising that there wasn't a more "scientific" Primarch. There are plenty of engineers and/or artisans but little in the way of biological knowledge.
There was Corax, especially as he tried to create the Raptors during the Heresy, although that felt much more driven by necessity than a legitimate interest for Corax; although he did seem to have an affinity for it (until the Alpha Legion got involved, anyhow).
@@DerenyxCorax was given the knowledge by the emperor directly. Compared to Perturabo for example who was born with inherent knowledge of engineering and similar stuff
I think this primarch concept is absolutely a great addition to 40k, his cultists are basically skaven and his Astartes are a mix of Astartes and rat-ogres
I feel like him and Fabius would either get along swimmingly, or be the greatest rivals the current imperium has ever seen…
One of these days, what I'm really hoping for is for Pete to make the Adeptus Custodians.
No, not the shiny Cavill-loved Custodes, but the dirty and grimy Custodians who come up after every battle with their power mops and buckets and clean away the mess!
goddamn I fucking love that idea. Imagine them having to mop up thousands of ork bodies. It'd be particularly funny if they (like the Custodes) outrank basically anyone short of the emperor. So even Inquisition have to step aside when the Custodians arrive.
@@gwingcommander oh definitely, they should definitely be some high ranking individuals!
Not mops, but flame throwers.
There is a Pete video for a custodes terminator thats been affected by Nurgle. Its a few years old at this point.
@@dustinsmith2021 flaming mop throwers?
years in this hobby, and this is the first time hearing anyone say the missing primarchs are to make space for fan creations. Makes so much more sense now
Apparently they weren't. Rick Priestly added them way back when to add some sort of deeper lore. "Stuff that begs questions for which there could be no answer.".
You just got that!?
As someone who has wanted to see the Skaven in 40K since I started getting into the lore, I love this idea of giving the Great Horned Rat a Primarch Deamon Prince just feels so right... Can't wait to see the Chaos Legion he commands and the ratty mutations they possess
This would go insanely hard with Skaven Chaos Marines, and a bunch of RatMech (Skaven+Admech) Cultists.
The Cyberrats by Mortian would also make for some great parts to this, too!
What this proves to me most of all is that Space Skaven would be an incredibly sick faction and would require only the slightest of adjustments from their vanilla kit.
Fantastic job!
I'd love to see you build this into a fully functional army with characters and troops
Agreed
One of my favorite things Pete does is:
Gets a kit early by GamesWorkshop
Kitbaehes something entirely different
And i think thwts pretty near
I think it’s also neat that GW continue to send him preview kits knowing he will do this.
First, LOVE this conversion. Absolutely love the ways you embraced a biomechanical look for this Primarch. Second, would love to see you flesh this idea out more and give us some Chaos marines for this legion
The Primarch of the H.R.U.D. Legion. The Horned Rat's Unified Destroyers.
The other lost one was more emo than corax and Conrad, Big E couldn't handle it
The Edge Lords
Dad, it's not a phase!
Or went to the other extreme; landed on a paradise world with no violence or want, grew up a hippie who doesn't want to fight and doesn't understand why we just don't get the Xenos into a share circle and talk our feelings out.
Ive regularly thought about a space skaven project as many others have, but not once had I thought about Skaven Space Marines..... UNTIL NOW. Man thats a neat idea and you should 100% do a squad to go with this guy. Very cool idea and model.
I'm always amazed that you not only have a clear and cool vision for these models, but also that you're able to articulate it so well. Looking at it after it was primed black, you would think it's an actual Citadel mini and not just dozens of different bits hobbled together. Great job, I hope we get to see more kitbashes from the 2nd!
This is so cool. I love the niche in the lore you weaved your custom primarch into. It makes so much sense lorewise. Also, masterful kit bashing to bring it to life. If I were to build it myself i would maybe add a panel or 2 of 40k armor (maybe a pauldron or bracer from the daemon prince kit) to give it more of a space marine feel. But flawless as is. Well done and thank you!
I really like the idea of transforming AOS/fantasy models into 30-40r models! Combining parts of these settings is an amazing way to add more individuality in your models! Your skills and your imagination with these parts bring us alot of cool projects!
I'm interested to see how you make his "Legion". Will you created twisted Astartes more of a skaveny vibe? Does he interact with your "space skaven" at any point? Or the Drukari? Either way it'll be awesome!!
So I view the 2nd Legion as being Astartes-adjacent. Not first born, not primaris and not even chaos marines but an entirely new breed. Kind of like how thunder warriors and custodes are other attempts at making perfect warriors from human stock. I'm still fleshing out the ideas though :)
@@PeteTheWargamer perhaps the space skaven are the cultists that follow them.
If you make more Skaven Marines for Apostas, a three armed first captain loosely based on Throt the Unclean from fantasy would be an amazing thing. Master Mutator serving a mad geneticist.
If you'd pardon a remark on this already great kitbash, I feel that it lacks one, VERY STRONG sci-fi/40k element to pull it appart from the fantasy roots of the model. A huge plasma gun for an arm, the horns being half-metal and serving as coils for a generator on its back, I don't know. Maybe some Mechanicus parts would fit.
I’d love to see some legionaries, some chaos rat soldiers, and maybe a vehicle like a warp stone rhino tank. This has some really neat kitbash potential, like Rat Ogor dreadnauts, and storm vermin terminators.
Great work!
This is a great take on the 2nd Primarch. I'd love to see you flesh out what the rest of the Legion would look like. You had my attention when you said He was found by the Horned Rat, and my unbridled interest when you confirmed that it's not just another take on Skaven in space.
Would love to see this idea expanded into the space marine chapter and space skaven.
I'd also be really interested in seeing your take on an 11th primarch
I love the crackling warp flow you added to the base, I think I might use that effect for my armies on parade project
Space Skaven, yes, yes!
Cool idea, and would love to see your take on the techno barbarians from Old Terra
That is some of your finest paintwork, not to mention the awesome kitbash concept! That is Golden Demon entry material!
Really like the idea for the primarch. You made it fit the setting great and I feel like it fills a niche that could get more attention now that there is a Fellgor Kill team (not that they are rats, but they are animal-mutated-like humans). This guy could certainly spur up some rebellion among those I feel.
Love it! On my own ramblings, I had also theorized that primarchs being a representation of the many aspects of the Emperor, and vice versa, that the genetic modification genius was missing, and that could very well be the main trait of some of the missing primarchs... That and that the Emperor absolutely is a vampire.
amazing job, i would say i would have added a few details to show they are more primarch/astartes like shoulder armor, the leg armor from angron but made to look less khornate. again just to push that they are a primarch
This is so fun. I did a Imperium Maledictum campaign with this as a concept. Essentially, you had a black site deep space research station that goes dark. The initial investigation shows everything is redacted around it but as you uncover more, its slowly revealed that theyve been essentially researching the warpstone meteor from Mordheim for millennia and only recently have they had a containment breach. Otherwise, its been responsible for the occurrence of various plagues in the sector throughout the years. The breach is from someone trying to steal it and has disappeared into the warp. That was also investigated by the Inquisition and a protocol was put in place to commandeer any and all available ships and units in an area if it ever gets sighted again. The PCs show up to such a sighting and have to start investigating a large hive where they begin to discover numerous horned rat cults and high levels of mutations occurring. The concern is that if they investigate too long the person who stole it aka a verminlord will move on and infect some new planet or that if people start leaving, they'll infect other.
The new primarchs are simply amazing, its my favorite fig collection on your chanel. Simply beautiful
Looks awesome, but I feel like as a Primarch, there should be some armor in him. It would have required butchering a Lion El Johnson or Gulliman kit, but I would have cut and modified the chest, shoulders, and other plates to mount on the Primarch's body.
So much potential here! Love it. I could listen to lore about this forgotten legion for hours. Would love to see more kitbashes for this concept! Great stuff.
No words can express how awesome this is.
I agree. I want to see more
I've been writing for my own homebrew chapter for a couple days now, and rn I'm doing a big segment on them with this video in the background. It's great!! The model looks incredible and the narration is great, super impressive. Keep it up!!
I love this idea for a unknown primarch. Its actually awesome and I love the model (THOUGH, I would have maybe liked him to be a SMIDGE more Spacemarine-y as a primarch?). Would be awesome to see it expanded
I'd love to see you tackle clone fulgrim, maybe painting him in the Sons of the Phoenix scheme
So awesome! I actually have some ideas on some kitbashes for your primarch series
Feel free to share them!
Commenting to get a notif when you reply - may or may not be invested cus I wanna steal an idea for myself hehe
So what if you created a sort of necron primarch Ferrus Manus? Im not sure what kits you might use, but Im leanimg towards a leviathan dreadnaugbt with chaos night mechanical tendrils and necron deztroyer parts.
Loved the added lore, absolutely hope to see this expanded on in the future
I honestly think this is the best kit bash I've ever seen. AMAZING!
Dude that's awesome! I loved the lore dump at the end, although you mentioned he's coming back with a rebuilt legion based on clones of his own genestock, I really hope that's a future video!
Really like everything about this one! The lore, the conversion and the painting 10/10!
Now, all I can think about are all those amazing bits you got left from that kit hehehe
Another great conversion Video. I love to see what you have created over the years. Awesome work 👍
Very much enjoyed the added background, especially for a more original build like this. You've got me wondering what kind of Primarch/Legion I'd like to see.
I'd definitely love to see more of Adpostis and his Legion/Warband of Chaos Marines! Very well done, Pete. As usual, you blow me out of the water!
Would like to hear and see more of this. The most interesting interpretation of the 2nd I've seen and your model is sick!
Please we need to see more of this legion! Such a fun concept with the potential for awesome body horror and unique marines :)
That looks awesome! I'd love to see more kitbashes to flesh out their forces!
I'd also love to see you tackle a defiler
Wow, your Primarch looks fantastic, Pete. You've definitely given me more inspiration get started on the Ratdeptus Ratstartes / PrimeSouris Marine army which i have been wanting to make for ages.
IMO, very well done. Looks great. BUT, I would say he needs more Space Marine flavor. A pauldron with a legion decal for his legion, maybe a spiky, rat themed power pack on the back, hooked up to the spear? Pretty sure you could use the Poison Wind Globadier pack, or perhaps some of Ikit's stuff for that.
Really cool kitbash
One small thing I like about this:
By making the Great Horned Rat the patron of this Primarch could help explain why Big E was able to erase them so fully.
The Big Four hated that the GHR had its own Primarch so they Helped Big E stamp out the Primarch to keep the rat from getting too big for its britches.
I would absolutely love to see your take on ordinary legionaries of the 2nd, both in terms of what heraldry they have and how their physiology was corrupted by the mad tinkering of their primarch. This whole thing gave me some delightful clan moulder vibes
That’s such a cool idea and execution! Would be really cool to see some of his followers too
Man I dont even know that much about 40k but this is actually incredibly creative and looks like so much fun, now i want to try
This is by far one of my favorite videos. I would really love to see what your ideas are for infantry!
I’m imagining many different troop variations that capture both the terrifying and silly side of the skaven.
Would love to see more of this version of the 2nd Legion! You'll get to play with all the dark Eldar gene splicy bits!
Incredible! Love your story telling and how every bit just comes together. 😊
This was a great build, loved the detail that went in, and I'd love to see where you go with this concept. While noted as a lost Primarch, you could decide Genestealer Cult is the army behind it, or a cultist with Chosen theme to lean into the Horned Rat. It's a great vibe and very Fabious Bile in some aspects, please keep going if you are inspired.
Nice. Would love to see this primarch's version of a standard marine, in their legion.
Hobby tip -> if you want to fill in details (engraved bits) pour out some uv resin into it, then use an old and dull hobby knife blade to level it out before hitting it with a uv light. It'll cure and be solid, as well as easy to sand.
Yo your fanfic and intro to the Primarch was quite on point, well considered and written, and very within the lore. Nice voice modulation as well!
Another crazy-good Kitbash Pete!
Maaan, every time - you just blow my mind dude.
Love the idea. Beastman-like space marines would be super awesome to see. Can't wait to see how you expand on this idea!
If you were to consider kit-bashing a new faction, I'd love to see more interpretations of Eldar Exodites. I've always assumed they'd be the Wild Elves of the setting, where their planets house their infinity circuits, and they make heavy use of Bonesingers to control wraithbone constructs. For example, a wrsithbone snake that also doubles as mobile fortifications or the namesakes of the aspect warriors.
My other idea for a fun sub-faction is a clan of Orks whose maddox's have been splicing them with 'nid parts. I like the idea of Gork and Mork trying to fend off the Hivemind whilst also fighting for control to evolve the boyz to be more brutal or cunning.
Imo Gork and Mork are too ego centric to admit that 'Nids are "more 'ard" than their Boyz. Might be that the good amount of dakka gets their excitement up for a good crumpin' and that gets them moving towards Krork-ness, but any group that lowers themselves to splicing in boogz is heretical and not properly Orky.
Ah my new favorite Primarch: Magnus the RAT, Cheeser of Ways.
What a cool idea and an even cooler build! A genius way to blend Skaven into 40K, too. Nice job!
This was awesome, I would absolutely love to see you make some chaos marine conversions/kitbashes for this legion.
Such an amazing idea and execution!
Loved it! I hope you're planning on kitbashing some marines for your 2nd Legion too, I'm interested to see what kind of adaptations/mutations they might have...
Dude great work! loved the speech at the end. Now just for the 11th primarch
I liked the kitbashing in this video. It's really cool and shows lot of different ideas.
I would like to see your take on the 11th legion's primarch, would be cool if you made them a loyalist to contrast Adpostis being a traitor who fell to worshipping the horned rat.
YOOOOO SO COOL! I've been building my own skaven space marine legion and this is some great inspiration. Thanks! Your kitbashes have always been great!
I NEED more content of this Legion, so cool
A really cool idea. I so seldom see people engage this part of the lore for their forces.
Beautifully built. Amazing painting. Awesome lore. Subscribed.
Amazing conversion & love the lore behind it!
Incredible paint job! I would personally like a few more armour panels, guns, or something else to give more of a hint of being a primarch. It looks very 40k but it looks like it could be a C'tan or a Greater Chaos Demon either for Vashtor or Nurgle.
Still I think you've done an incredible job! Loved the fanfic lore dump.
Shoulderpads
The primarchs are probably my favourite of your videos. The chaos corrupted ones especially are amazing
Cool conversion, looking forward to my bits in the mail!
I was immediately tempted to kitbash this into a gnarly Beastmen Bray Shaman, it's pretty pricey though lol...
I, for one, would love to see an expansion on this concept lore and all!
Absolutely mind-blowing. Spectacular work.
I really like how you were able to transform that Skaven kit into something that feels much more at home in 40k! The one critique I would have is that I would have loved to see him with a bit more armor to really drive that primarch-ness. Something about it just doesn't quite have that feeling of continuity with the Astartes, even with the ports added over the body.
Wicked conversion, would love to see the legion filled out
Hey Pete, I've been kicking around two ideas for kitbashing that I just don't have the time or money to continue looking into right now, but might interest you:
1.) A CyberWolf Dreadnought. The idea of the Cyberwolf is essentially that of a Fenrisian wolf who served the sons of Russ so honorably and loyally that they don't let it just die, instead using cybernetics and bionics to resurrect it or extend it its life. To me, that has strong "dreadnought wolf" vibes, but the actual execution of the cyberwolf is so limited and specific that it sort of winds up feeling like it only gets cybernetics the equivalent of what you tend to see on standard Space Marine lieutenant or captain models.
2.) A Salamander equivalent of the Thunder Wolf Cavalry. It'd be a homebrew unit, obviously, but I really like the idea of Salamander riding on the backs of giant, firebreathing velociraptor lookin' things. Plenty of people have made 4-legged lizard riders for the Salamanders, but I think they'd look particularly cool atop firebreathing, saurian monsters.
Details in my reply, if curious.
Ha! I love the whole primarch/skaven concept! Wish i could like more than once just based on your concept alone.
This rocks so hard, PLEASE do more of this second legion
I would like to see you expand on this idea more! This is really interesting. :3 I enjoyed your fanfiction also! Really neat idea.
Honestly, love the idea of tying one of the Lost Legions to the Horned Rat. Could see the other tied to Malal following this logic. Would love to see the Astartes underneath this Primarch.
This definitely needs some legionaries to go with him! Better yet a pre-ascension rendition for use in heresy games maybe? Gotta see that fair hair you referenced when doing his fur
Pretty damn good dude!! One critique, not even a critique but 1 cool thing to add would’ve been tiny part of his armour remaining, like all faded but his og loyal legion colours. Keep up the fantastic work dude!
Love the vibes. Would love to see some Chaos Marines, or some Cultists in this legions style
This is i think my favourite video of all of yours Pete. I love the original model and what youve is just fantastic
Such a cool idea and a good way to bring Skaven into 40k, im currently working on the 11th Legion Primarch and marines. Named Chax'Qzuel, the Primarch had the ability to transform into whatever they could think of. Because of this the Primarch felt shame cutting down Xenos and made it seem like he Died in battle. However the Primarch and the Legion itself left to find a new home where The Primarch transformed into a new leader under the name Xochi, a lizard with the beauty of a goddess.
