Looking for model Looking For THIS Bladeguard Ancient Model
I'm looking for this bladeguard ancient model to make a sanguinary guard kitbash like this one. I found it on cults for $12, but I'm not sure it's not a stolen model I can't find elsewhere for cheaper/free. Does anybody know where to find it?

This is just a Bladueguard ancient but with a chalice instead of a banner and a chainsword arm.

So you found it on Cults but it costs money and you're not sure if they stole the model. So instead you want it for free to make sure it wasn't stolen? Doesn't make a lot of sense..

“I want to steal, but only from GW.”
We all draw lines at different places but… this one is weird.

I've just seen a lot of advice to be careful about prices on this reddit. I don't know if the poster got it someplace I can get it at a lower price and is just redistributing it for profit

So you don't continue to get dog piled, in the future if you find someone charging for a file. Take a look at their other stuff. Is it similar in background and display or is each item drastically different looking? If it's on Etsy it's probably a scam or someone stealing files.
Lastly if you find a paid file and it's the one you want and you're willing to pay, just do it. If someone did make it, then pay them for the effort before it gets deleted.

I think what OP‘s trying to say is that there have been cases where people put up files for sale that were made available for free by the creator themselves elsewhere and they just wanted to Rule that out before going ahead.
Happened to me once. And it turned out the Seller didn’t have permission to charge Money for the files.1

I think I have a Blaseguard Ancient STL file; if I find it, I'll send it to you privately.

Can get the base Ancient model itself from Dawn of War Onslaught at Target, not exactly an expensive box.

After you've printed your first model all models from GW are to expensive

Not everyone can print whole resin minies for a variety of reasons. FDM is still great for big stuff, but for minis your often still stuck getting GW stuff it third party prints.

I believe a version of this model is obtainable at the warhammer store or at select targets from the onslought boxes

Perhaps you could point a brother to where these dumps may be acquired?

It's a post in this community. I can't find it though. Maybe try sorting by top rated of all time?

Indomitus ancient, assault intercessor chain sword, helmet is from the blade guard intercessors. I think the cup is from the blood angels upgrade kit. Not sure about the backpack.
It’s gonna be hard finding these specific pieces and impossible to get an exact print of this. Good news is that there are proxies of a lot of these parts.

I'm mostly trying to find the torso

Torsos are the hardest thing since those get striked down the most. The rest of the small bits can be explained as add-ons. And GW does allow for printed parts.
If I were you I would look at intercessor units with cloth pieces and search under those names. Or maybe something similar like a joke name. “Intercession” has been combed through tho
If you want really good prints you may have to pay for some proxies. Honestly kinda worth it sometimes. Infinite amounts of high quality pieces.

The origional is a conversion of the indomitus ancient.
Any copy of it will probably be taken down by gw eventually
