NemFX Posted December 23, 2008 Share Posted December 23, 2008 The irony.. Aside from the plasma pistol, my female Ultramarine captain originally had the same overall layout. Same body, same sword, etc.. These are awesome. Any plans for what your doing with them now?

the thousandth whisper Posted December 23, 2008 Share Posted December 23, 2008 HAIL! I hail you for this display of raw awesomeness, how is it a diorama though? are you putting them with scenery? also, who's the crazy with the thunder hammer, is she the some deathwatch or something? the shoulder badge looks similar Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/155600-women-of-the-adeptus-astartes-diorama-complete/#findComment-1817708 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miniman Posted December 23, 2008 Share Posted December 23, 2008 As much as I like your Black Widow Marines, I'm sad to say that I don't really like these. I mean the painting is nice, but they lack female spacemarine-ity? It looks as if you just made normal marines and threw on a few Wood Elf heads and called them a lady! Yeh, I'm sorry to say, that these aren't your best interpretations of Female Space Marines :tu: Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/155600-women-of-the-adeptus-astartes-diorama-complete/#findComment-1817723 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nemesis Weapon to the Goolies Posted December 23, 2008 Share Posted December 23, 2008 +++Mod Edit: Trolling quote & comments removed. Perpetrator will be dealt with. Carry on with the discussion. -OMG Okay, onto actual criticism: Doctor, these are beautifully painted. And I LIKE that the armor isn't "boobed", et cetera. Keep that part! I can't criticize the setup, the posing, or the heraldry particularly either. However, I feel that some of Miniman's criticism is sound. The heads...the helms. I didn't mind those type of helms for the Widows; the Widows are doing their thing. But ALL of these Chapters do appear to have the same female "type"; the same face, the same two types of helm. And yeah, even with the variation in color and hairstyle, it's too...elfy, almost? If the Helms were different, maybe it might throw off the effect. If the faces had more variation in expression, it would definitely throw off the effect. Of course, having said that, I'm unclear on how to advise "good helm variation" that still shows their faces to good effect (darn it). Anyone help here? Could it be that some of them might were Cadian-style helms when not on-mission? Or is that just stupid? As for the faces, well, I think you already know...Necromunda! I think you had that idea yourself, anyhow! And let me say, as a parting comment...don't be afraid to vary the women's facial type as well as expression. You did it rather well with the Widows, that I recall seeing on Warseer. Give 'em scars. Un-surgically-modified scars. Dead eyes that aren't covered by a patch or by augmetics. We see it in pictures all the time. Marines can be ugly. You can let some of yours be ugly too. It's no crime, man. ;) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/155600-women-of-the-adeptus-astartes-diorama-complete/#findComment-1818023 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nemesis Weapon to the Goolies Posted December 23, 2008 Share Posted December 23, 2008 Okay, shameless sad little double-post, I won't do it again. Dr. Thunder: The Green-haired, black-armored hammer-slingin' Spacer'ino...what Chapter? Is she Legio? Like Old-style BXC, when they were using old-bone white instead of (that cursed) bright white? Is she heraldry-less because she's working for the Malleus Daemonhunters? I'm pretty sure that isn't Ordo Xenos heraldry on her... What's up with her? Just curious.

I guess I was hoping for a more involved explanation, like some sort of Legio BXC Marine who nonetheless worked for the Malleus. Which, now that I think about it, is the same kind of cheesy schlock that I'm always criticizing OTHER fanboi-types for even thinking of... I am a sad case. Good to know, though.

Tarik Posted December 23, 2008 Share Posted December 23, 2008 I have to say that, those are really, erm...hot? ^_^ I especially like the ultramarine. Where is the head from?

Merkava Posted December 23, 2008 Share Posted December 23, 2008 Heresy...okay fluff critism out of the way. These look alot better than the Black Widows. Yes I know that all he did was put elf heads on marine bodies. Have you ever seen a woman wearing body armour in a combat zone? I have and the only thing that distinguishes them is their voice. Painting is pretty good as well.

Doctor Thunder Posted December 23, 2008 Author Share Posted December 23, 2008 Cheers, guys. :D :D:) Can I just ask which chapter the Marine with the TH is from? My buddy's DIY chapter, called the Angels of the Night. :) As for the faces, well, I think you already know...Necromunda! I think you had that idea yourself, anyhow! Yes, I agree. The Space Wolf girl especially deserved an Escher head, and I think the Blood Angel girl would have really benefited from a Lahimian Vampire Counts head. Alas, I didn't have the extra money, so I had to settle for what I could afford. :( Any plans for what your doing with them now? I'm giving them out as christmas presents to my friends. The Black Templar girl will go to my buddy who plays Black Templar, the Blood Angels girl will go to my buddy who plays Blood Angels, The Salamanders girl goes to my buddy who plays Salamanders, etc. ;) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/155600-women-of-the-adeptus-astartes-diorama-complete/#findComment-1818289 Share on other sites More sharing options...
