Disruptor_fe404 Posted September 7, 2008 Share Posted September 7, 2008 I'm diggin' 'em. Something tells me that your local metagame is Ork-, 'Nid- or Guard-heavy.

Lestat Posted September 7, 2008 Share Posted September 7, 2008 Some nice pieces there. Can i steal, sorry, borrow some of your ideas? I'm currently working on some true-scale sternguard - but as the new codex isn't released over here yet I don't know if there are going to be "legal" Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/145360-plastic-sternguard/#findComment-1685270 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm currently working on some true-scale sternguard - but as the new codex isn't released over here yet I don't know if there are going to be "legal" Ooooh i like true-scaled stuff. I'm from the UK too, I was working from the rumours but I asked someone who had the codex and got it confirmed.

metcalfedan Posted September 7, 2008 Author Share Posted September 7, 2008 Thanks, I'm debating adding a second heavy flamer, but I don't have enough IG flamer bits, I'll probably just do another combi-flamer marine.

DarkPrincess Posted September 10, 2008 Share Posted September 10, 2008 the guy going over the wall looks alot like one of my assault marines for my templars I did a while back( http://www.bolterandchainsword.com/index.p...howtopic=133601 ) for quick reference... http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v445/PrincessZoe/assault2.jpghttp://img.photobucket.com/albums/v445/PrincessZoe/assault1.jpg which..it's hard to really see much detail in those shoddy pics, but I have 3 bits of creative critism... first, the gun is a big bulky and would be a bit tough to wield in that motion over a wall, i'd have had it on a sling on his back or under his arm with the knife in hand.. and secondly, his hand on the wall looks awkward, if you were running and jumping a wall it'd almost sprain or pop something out of place to grab like that, it'd been a bit better(natural) looking if you'd turned it the other way. Last, the undrilled barrels detract from the overall look of them.. BUT other than those little things, it looks good! ;) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/145360-plastic-sternguard/#findComment-1688273 Share on other sites More sharing options...

DarkPrincess Posted September 10, 2008 Share Posted September 10, 2008 P.S. anyone notice the wall is made from LEGO? oh, that's cool, I thought it was just some random sprues from other type models... my guy's wall is all extra sprues cut up and erected in a brick-type fashion, i have tons of sprues..but I'd loot the lego idea if I didn't :angry: Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/145360-plastic-sternguard/#findComment-1689168 Share on other sites More sharing options...
