Project Start October 2003


The concept is simple, 
create a wearable "realistic" costume of Adeptus Astartes (Space Marine) Power Armor.

Easy enough to say, 
but many steps in the making.

I'm creating this website so that fellow artists can critique & offer suggestions, and also in the hopes that others may be inspired to create their own costumes from the 40K universe.

For more information on Space Marines please visit the Games Workshop website  and visit their Warhammer 40K section. 

Please also visit www.WarpArefacts.com and email them to ask when they will have lifesize 40K props for sale!

Will I make armor to sell? 

NO.
That would be illegal,  the terms "Adeptus Astartes", "Space Marine" & "Power Armor" are copyrighted by Games Workshop, I use the terms here for reference only. 

HOWEVER, go check out www.WarpArefacts.com because Games Workshop is just now beginning to create full scale props from the 40K Universe! Email them to let them hear what you want to see!

Please understand this project is strictly for my personal non-commercial use. This website has been created to share what I'm doing with other costumers to help me overcome various technical difficulties, and to share my progress with other 40K fans who may enjoy seeing this :)
