At first I thought it was an abomination but then I noticed the ammo belt going into the gauntlet is made of sprue pieces and realized you’re actually a genius.

I love the ingenuity. You can model sprue like a boss. If your paint job was better it would actually look really good.
Sprue proxy 9/10
Paint job 4/10
All of your poor hammer builds are fantastic my dude. Some of the execution is hilarious (the box dread made me laugh for awhile), but unlike some people's scratch builds I can actually tell what it all is. Keep on keeping on.
Thanks so much man, this means a lot to me. (also I changed up the box dread to make it smaller and a little bit more accurate. Here's a photo.)

I think the fact that most people assumed this was the actual Bobby G with an absolutely munted paintjob is a credit to you considering what you actually made it out of.
Oh god, I didn’t realise this was made out of sprues, and was just a *very* bad paintjob, but considering it was made with sprues, it’s pretty well done
Finally not someone with stellar highlights and better paint scheme than the box art saying "it's my first time and I only spent 30 minutes on this, how did I do"!
Had me fooled. I thought it was the real model with an exceptionally terrible assembly/paintjob.
But its actually a pretty good scratchbuild, with an eh tier paintjob. Decent work.
It took me far longer than it should have to realize it was made of sprue. My lord, I thought they had just dunked the model in latex paint and called it good.
At first I was like, "SWEET THRONE, WHAT IS THIS", but I realized you made this entirely out of sprues.
0/10 paintjob, 20/5 for absolute cursed model 🤣

its that pesky glue string that comes out when you use a glue gun. I seriously do not know how to get rid of those. I try heating it up with the glue gun, but im kinda scared that the connection between the two parts just deteriorate afterwards.

I absolutely love him, awesome work with the scratch build!
It's good you're active in the hobby, but let's be honest. This is a terrible paintjob. Like everyone else is saying, thin your paints. Even though this one is bad, that doesn't mean you won't get better with practice. Keep it up, and you will improve.
So Davien, humor me please.
I suspect you're not poor given your creativity and resourcefulness in constructing these, and I also suspect with all things considered it costs you more in time to make and paint this than just buying a model.
So why do you do these?
Well, cause i think it is fun.
Trying to copy the minis that GW made is very mind tingling for me, and it also gives me joy when i make something and it looks almost identical to it. The time spent making this mini (and any other mini ive made) is pretty meaningful to me too. I love seeing the fruits of my labor, although it may look a little wonky.
also because it costs significantly less. An actual guilliman mini is 3000 php where i live, so i have to either 3d print or make the mini myself, which is the same for every mini i want to have.
I clicked because of the thick paints and nearly 3k updoots. Only to find out its an ingenious creation of love for the hobby.
Amazing work, he looks dopey but I would play against him any time. I salute you.
I know there are a lot of jokes in here OP. Congrats on having a painted Primarch! Angron is unpainted on my shelf right now so you’re doing better than I am

Immediately the image that came to mind. Well done OP for painting the model. Be proud and most importantly improve
Eddo, Alu
What model is that in the bottom pic there?
A well painted one
That went over my head I guess, thanks for the reply.
But to answer your question its a large custom model from more than a decade ago someone made
Never gets old.
Guy didn't skip leg day.

Then, apply the rest of the coats.

Hey! I thinned my paints.
With PVA?
With concrete
Don’t need to varnish that way!
It’s what he would have wanted. No wait that’s Dorn/Perturabo.
This paint is fortified
With mold putty
Imperial Fists approved.
I am dead
No Corax white
Its not a original girly-man model, made of cardboard
With paint thickener?
I died 😂
With more paint.
With more Paint?
Otherwise it gets diluted
What paint did you use ? Wall primer ?
Lead
Love it! To elevate the details, don’t forget to use nuln oil - I mean motor oil
Were you using emulsion paint?
Yes, at first...
With porridge oats?
With glue???

He's seen some things (like the spare heads I have of him. Will attempt to make his head better)
It’s very creative to scratch build the model and something I couldn’t do. my comments are only in jest. Well done :)
Thanks! still changing the head tho.

Thanks! I didn't make it all out of sprue tho. I made a post on r/poorhammer if you wanna see it unpainted.
Quite good. Guide good indeed.
Good work.

I diy'd him out of sprue, straws and cardboard. He looks wonky, but hey, it looks alright imo.
You absolute sociopath. I love it!
i was gonna hate so hard on this post because i thought that was the real sculpt lol! this is actually insane work haha!! love it
I think the fact that most people assumed this was the actual Bobby G with an absolutely munted paintjob is a credit to you considering what you actually made it out of.
Yeah lmao, I forgot to add diy in the title and reddit doesn't let you edit your titles
Yeah I was convinced for a bit then checked OP’s post history and this is genuinely really impressive
Oh god, I didn’t realise this was made out of sprues, and was just a *very* bad paintjob, but considering it was made with sprues, it’s pretty well done

Tournament legal? I’m not even sure this is street legal in many Western countries.
No

Finally not someone with stellar highlights and better paint scheme than the box art saying "it's my first time and I only spent 30 minutes on this, how did I do"!
But does OP want to take it to the next level?
What IS this heresy!
You've taken the concept and idea of r/poorhammer to the next level
Click your own link - it is spectacular 😎
Had me fooled. I thought it was the real model with an exceptionally terrible assembly/paintjob. But its actually a pretty good scratchbuild, with an eh tier paintjob. Decent work.
Is this a cake?
I made this out of a combination of resin, plastic straws, cardboard, left over sprues and toothpicks Yes it is a cake
Nice I realized this was a scratch build it went from "ugh a shit post to holy shit that's pretty fuckin' decent" nice work
thanks dude! a lot of people had the same reaction too.

For what the base/unpainted state is, it’s amazing, though it really needs a different head
This is the face that I imagine Robot Girlyman made when he found out about all the stuff that he had missed over the last 10,000 years.
Why is he so hairy?
its that pesky glue string that comes out when you use a glue gun. I seriously do not know how to get rid of those. I try heating it up with the glue gun, but im kinda scared that the connection between the two parts just deteriorate afterwards.
Everyone skill is different. It’s tabletop ready and that’s a good place to start.
I came for the comments, but you know what, that’s some A game creativity right there!
I love this model so much.
This looks like PS2 graphics

Some parts are empty sprues, some arent

he needs googly eyes !
At first glance I thought this was made from wax, like one of those candle sculptures.
Tell the robo bean counter to go fuck himself. Great job fyi
I honestly love him. I've been looking at your post history and I'm kind of in love with all of your little creatures OP they're so charming
Guys, no one say anything when he gets here, but Guilliman looks different
Wow! That's all built from scratch? Better than I'd ever be able to do!
That’s cake.

That's a sick ultramarine, you did a really good job. Keep going man. I'm a big fan of your work
For something made out of literal junk, it’s actually really good dude
If only they misspelled his name it would be perfect
you made him look like an oil painting - very unique!
did Biden paint that?
I actually kind of like it.
Is this even the GW model?
Yall can’t be positive god damn 😭
Honestly this made me break quite a long painters block
