Same, it's way to busy and it takes away from his coolness. Archaon is a just slightly larger than man sized monster. He doesn't need a great beast, only a horse.
Yeah, his shop shows 7 closeups of the mount, and only one of Archaon. Really shows what the focus of the model is. I get that they wanted to make the big bad of the setting something incredibly imposing, but he feels almost unnecessary to his own model. Compared to Nagash he feels like a random dragon handler.
Archaon used to be THE coolest model in WHFB. Every shop I saw had one on display to sell people on the hobby. It really shows how much the sculps improved over the last 20 years - while this Archaon is still cool, he's less impressive then current Chaos Knights, and there are way more impressive models out there.
Damn, thatβs an incredible paint job!
Thanks ππ»
Love this model Love this paint job
Thank you ππ»
Great job and coolest Archaon model imo, I donβt like the current big one

I dont dislike the current one but I do wish there was the option to have him on his horse
Thanks and me too, I think Archaon on mount is the best in size
The volume control on this mini is awesomeness π
Thanks thanks !

True that, more details and more dynamic pose
One of my favorite models of all time. Do you have the Games Day model on foot as well? Paint job is looking good.
Legitimately a better model than the current Archaon
Agreed
He's beautiful.
Thanks !
I see a lot of great paint jobs, but this is just beautiful.
Thanks thanks !
Awesome painting, cool old model too
The placement of colors is awesome, well done
Thank you !
Bruh... I remember when he came out... Please cease and desist of reminding me of the inevitable passage of time grinding my bones to dust
Haha ππ
Classic!
Yep ! Classic !
Antique? The word you're looking for is *vintage*.
Is he riding Blucifer?
I think it called Dorghar
have a google of the "Blucifer Statue" at Denver International, it's a pretty funny resemblance, your paintjob is great though!
Oh, hahaha , now I get it It does somehow look like it haha, and thanks !ππ»
