LoneWolven Posted July 2, 2008 Share Posted July 2, 2008 Thanks to everyone who has been giving me input in my WIP thread. I just finished up the squad and I can finally post up here in the HoH. Overall I think the squad turned out well. I learned a lot while doing these guys. I think the next squad will be done even faster and will look better. I found a good metal and gold. My next task is a scout squad of snipers. Look for them in my WIP thread. http://i139.photobucket.com/albums/q291/beckatusc/IMG_0113.jpg Group Shot http://i139.photobucket.com/albums/q291/beckatusc/IMG_0117.jpg Gives you a good idea of the overall base effect. I like :D http://i139.photobucket.com/albums/q291/beckatusc/IMG_0118.jpg Washes out the Sergeant's head but you get the idea.

Pleasuredome Posted July 5, 2008 Share Posted July 5, 2008 Being a great Fan of camouflage green Marines myself , I'd say thumps up ! http://www.figuraobscura.com/ussm/wstest1.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/139967-screaming-eagles/#findComment-1619624 Share on other sites More sharing options...
LoneWolven Posted July 7, 2008 Author Share Posted July 7, 2008 Being a great Fan of camouflage green Marines myself , I'd say thumps up ! http://www.figuraobscura.com/ussm/wstest1.jpg Sweet mercy those are beautiful. Just the idea I am going for. @Rubberduck: no his base is finished to look like the others. @chr: I'm not really sure. They were done over a week or two. I would go for days without painting and then binge for a few hours, or just do a bit here and there. Makes it hard to track. I was also getting the kinks out of my process so i think I can get them done faster now.

Brother Cambrius Posted July 7, 2008 Share Posted July 7, 2008 Fantastic painting LoneWolven, the music just keeps playing in my head when I look at these guys... Will the cry "Curahee" be found on any of the marines or possibly vehicles?

Will the cry "Curahee" be found on any of the marines or possibly vehicles? Cambrius Not sure if I have posted up the fluff for these guys yet anywhere, if not I will soon, but yes it will. Their battle cry is "Currahee" I want have that on their armor and perhaps on a few banners. Like I said before I won't be doing many tanks but the ones I will have will have it, don't worry about that. Off to the hobby shop for some sealant and plastic glue, I'm tired of gluing my fingers together.

AngryJohnny Posted November 6, 2008 Share Posted November 6, 2008 Sorry for the bump, but I was wondering if you'd made anymore progress on your army? Last time I looked you said you were doing some work on your Characters.

GI Joker Posted November 6, 2008 Share Posted November 6, 2008 Where did you find the decals DOME and OP?????? MUST KNOW!!! You can get lots of allied stars from American decal set from a game called 'Flames of War'. I too concure that these minis are very nice. I am a big fan of realisticly painted Warhammer minis. The rank insignia on the knees are a very nice touch. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/139967-screaming-eagles/#findComment-1762889 Share on other sites More sharing options...

FastEd Posted November 7, 2008 Share Posted November 7, 2008 Yeah, FoW transfers are probably a little to small. It's what, 8mm, with even smaller vehicles?
