Captain Mike Posted August 16, 2009 Share Posted August 16, 2009 First off, my sincere apologies if a thread like this exists. But we have show off your tanks, dreadnoughts, HQ, Sternguard etc... why not scouts. In my, humble, opinion, they are the coolest and most 'characterful' unit in the space marine codex. Normal scout squads, scout bikes and storms can be showed off here. It's all in the title! Show off your scouts.This provides the dual purpouse of showing them off, and also giving me a little inspiration for a 'characterful' squad of scouts I plan to do. Please only comment if you have posted a picture yourself. My (rather poorly painted) scout snipers. http://i498.photobucket.com/albums/rr344/Captain_Mike_Parker/Scouts1.jpg And Scout Sergeant Joel http://i498.photobucket.com/albums/rr344/Captain_Mike_Parker/ScoutSgtJoel.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/176090-space-marine-scout-showcase/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marshal van Trapp Posted August 17, 2009 Share Posted August 17, 2009 yay i get to show off my "Jungle Camo" scouts, not only have i lost these guys on a board before, my opponents have as well, so when they have sniper shots coming at them and have no idea where my scouts are they claim they totally forgot about me hiding them in the forest cause they blend in so well. http://i44.photobucket.com/albums/f12/Comm_Nagrom/my%20DIY%20chapter%20WIP/DSCN0423.jpg i've been thinking of adding little bits of clump ok flock like the trees we use have so they blend in even better :blink: Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/176090-space-marine-scout-showcase/#findComment-2081876 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kurgan the Lurker Posted August 17, 2009 Share Posted August 17, 2009 Just a note guys - As this is the Hall of Honor we will only be having finished models in this thread. WIP shots or shots that you want feedback on, please start a thread about your paint job. Outside of this, the thread will be treated like the other "showcase" threads.

And Tewligan's IG/Scout/DA head hybrid Scout is brilliant. So yeah, I'm totally stealing ideas for my scout squad.

Imperator Mos Posted August 18, 2009 Share Posted August 18, 2009 Constrictors scouts, which make an appearance in nearly every game. Snipers (blurry) CC Not my best pics but you get the idea.

Davey80y Posted August 18, 2009 Share Posted August 18, 2009 @Davey80y how did you do the snow? For the snow I use GW modelling snow 1 Mix some "snow" with PVA till you get a porridge like constancy 2 Paint it on to the base with an old brush (the thicker you make it the more shape you can give it on the base) 3 Dip it back in the pot of snow while its still wet 4 Clean off the excess with another (dry) old brush hope this helps :-) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/176090-space-marine-scout-showcase/#findComment-2083324 Share on other sites More sharing options...

greatcrusade08 Posted August 21, 2009 Share Posted August 21, 2009 This is from my WIP Storm, i have two, this one has a few changes though... http://i708.photobucket.com/albums/ww87/greatcrusade08/DSCF0006-1.jpg I tore off the cerberus launchers, replacing them with an underlsung heavy flamer and two trimmed down tau missile pods to be the new cerberus launchers. The scouts have been given shotties and one of then a combi-flamer... i used some IG cadian bits including helmeted heads and a vox caster.

51XV8 Posted August 21, 2009 Share Posted August 21, 2009 Is there a rule against having normal marines in the storm instead of scouts, because that would make a sweat conversion with out alot of converting. Since you guys have the model already would you say it would be easy to do this? (even if its not legal it would be fun to do) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/176090-space-marine-scout-showcase/#findComment-2085913 Share on other sites More sharing options...
greatcrusade08 Posted August 21, 2009 Share Posted August 21, 2009 The rules for the storm capacity explicity say "scouts only". Although you an convert them to look like marines if you wanted too.

It has been so long since I was working on these guys that I managed to miss that! I was considering painting the clothes differently, and did a Photoshop test to see what it would look like. (I don't even remember if I repainted them or not!) I didn't notice I had grabbed the wrong pics!

Phoros Posted November 15, 2012 Share Posted November 15, 2012 I like all of these. Although I don't have any of my own to add, I will say one thing - if you paint Salamanders scouts without blotchy half-conventional-African-black-and-half-Salamanders-coal-black skin to represent the geneseed working on them, you're doing it wrong.
