slah Posted October 30, 2008 Share Posted October 30, 2008 Well even thought I´m probably the slowest worker in the entire hobby I´m gonna post my latest chaos stuff and see if it´s in any way possible for me to make any kind of regular updates (most likely not :)) So without any further ado I give you The Thawed Legion! I´m not really a gamer, so I haven´t written any fluff - allthough I have something kind of ...different....in mind. Basically we´re talking an entire 15000+ years old mechanized planet (originally a generation ship), that is crawling with hundreds of thousands of chaos marines and millions of renegades. Here is the first 10 (only several millions to go........) A note: bear in mind that I´m NOT a gamer, so the marines are equipped so as to look cool, and not to be able to play in any WYSIWYG-tournament. Champion and squad-badass: http://i267.photobucket.com/albums/ii284/slah_photos/IMG_1148.jpg Standard bearer and badass # 2 http://i267.photobucket.com/albums/ii284/slah_photos/IMG_1147.jpg Heavy weapon and an eager marine http://i267.photobucket.com/albums/ii284/slah_photos/IMG_1146.jpg Cannon fodder #1 & 2 http://i267.photobucket.com/albums/ii284/slah_photos/IMG_1145.jpg Cannon fodder #3 & 4 http://i267.photobucket.com/albums/ii284/slah_photos/IMG_1144.jpg Most of the back packs arent done yet, but only tacked together, but apart from that I would like any comments and ways of improving that you can come up with it - please be ruthless, that is the only way I´ll improve :D! Any comments on my GS-FU is especially appreciated seeing that this is the first time I´m using the sticky stuff.

Knight Templar Posted October 30, 2008 Share Posted October 30, 2008 They're brilliant, really love the conversions - my favourite is the "eager marine". i can only see green stuff on the cloack (correct me if i'm wrong) and i cant see it that clearly so i cant really comment on that Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/150819-the-thawed-legion/#findComment-1753606 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ompfris Posted October 30, 2008 Share Posted October 30, 2008 For what I can see - the gs is really good for a first attempt. As for the modeling of the marines, thay are great - my fav is the cannon fodder #4 with his two pistols! (I have a few marines which are unplayable due the conversions I did) its always good to have orignal looking mini's Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/150819-the-thawed-legion/#findComment-1753612 Share on other sites More sharing options...

marshall Egregorius Posted October 30, 2008 Share Posted October 30, 2008 i love all the marines....from a modelers perspective....i'm a BT player, so burn the mutant and all that....nice eager marine....is his head from the ghoul sprue (cookie if i'm right) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/150819-the-thawed-legion/#findComment-1753795 Share on other sites More sharing options...
LuNCHBiZZLe Posted October 31, 2008 Share Posted October 31, 2008 Ditto on the champ head I want some and cannon fodder #1. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/150819-the-thawed-legion/#findComment-1753864 Share on other sites More sharing options...

slah Posted October 31, 2008 Author Share Posted October 31, 2008 @Tallis: The cork is from cork place settings I don´t think they should be to hard to find. @Duodecimo & Lunchbizzle: The champ head is from the new plastic Chaos Knight box, and the cannon fodder #1 head is the nurgle chaos space marine head where I´ve clipped the horn/mutation off and then sculpted the side of the helmet, and then I sanded off the middle eye. and lastly a cookie to Marshall Egregorius because it is indeed a ghoul head that I used for the eager marine (badass #2 has another ghoul head) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/150819-the-thawed-legion/#findComment-1754156 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Megalodon Posted October 31, 2008 Share Posted October 31, 2008 The poses are outstanding!
