I've finished work on the First Primes now.  The one on the right is a small conversion, the serpent helmet was removed and replaced by a Crooked Dice head and then I added a green stuff collar to finish it off.

Love your "Primes".
A largely irrelevant but perhaps interesting bit of trivia I can share because I live in the Vancouver and observed Stargate SG-1 filming more than a few times in my local park:
The Jaffa armor looks silvery on screen but was actually almost black when seen in real life. The silvery-ness seems to be because it's reflective. Similarly the knitted "chainmail" was also black but had a reflective finish.

Beard Prime is excellent, I think the conversion really works - reminds me of Bra'tac from the SG 1 series for some reason.

Not to distract from your own sterling efforts, but I did a Jaffa'a army a few years ago - you might find something useful in the thread about it here:

Keep it up, really great to see someone else's take on this.  :)

Cheers guys and interesting bit of info on the armour.  I looked through loads of screenshots of the show to try and best replicate how the armour should look and hope I've got close to the on screen appearance.
Bra'tac was exactly what I was going for (though I didn't go all white with the beard) so I'm glad that worked out.

The Staff Cannons are now done but I realised that I've glued the legs on the wrong way!  Bit late now but they work fine just the same so I won't be pulling them apart to remedy this.

Very cool. I never got into the series so don't know much of the "history"
Will you be doing some of the flyers?

Absolutely smashing!

I didn't know SG figures where available again? I searched all over for them once, but failed to get anywhere in 28 mm. 15 mm on the other hand....  lol

No plans at the moment plus the fact that they're hard to come by (though I'm sure they'll be something 3d printed out there).

I've completed the Goa'uld, first time doing this much dark skin but was happy with the results.  Again the layers in the white aren't visible in these photos but I'll take some better shots of everything once the project is completed.

Lovely mate. I need to get mine done at some point soon, but I keep getting sidetracked...oh look...shiney...

I hope you are painting up another set in blue for those episodes when they wear the away strip?  ;)
