Garden Ninja Posted May 5, 2009 Share Posted May 5, 2009 Edit- I just added the latest to page 3. Edit- I did it again. The latest marine is towards the bottom of page 3 So, a while ago I started a project for Movie Marines. Anyone who knows the army list will know that it takes about ten movie marines to fight a 1500 point 40k army. Their stats are over the top, so I figured the minis ought to be over the top too. So I decided to spend as much time and effort on these ten marines as one normally would a 1500-2000 point force. Here are the greens: http://mediawonder.com/gallery/albums/userpics/Movie_Space_Marine_1.jpg http://mediawonder.com/gallery/albums/userpics/Movie_Space_Marine_2.jpg http://mediawonder.com/gallery/albums/userpics/Movie_Space_Marine_3.jpg http://mediawonder.com/gallery/albums/userpics/Movie_Space_Marine_4.jpg http://mediawonder.com/gallery/albums/userpics/Movie_Space_Marine_5.jpg http://mediawonder.com/gallery/albums/userpics/Movie_Space_Marine_6.jpg http://mediawonder.com/gallery/albums/userpics/Movie_Space_Marine_7.jpg http://mediawonder.com/gallery/albums/userpics/Movie_Space_Marine_8.jpg http://mediawonder.com/gallery/albums/userpics/Movie_Space_Marine_9.jpg And here's the sergeant.

williamdelgray Posted May 5, 2009 Share Posted May 5, 2009 Love the headhunter model and Mr. Eye patch. But this one seems like he is just so happy to be firing at something. http://mediawonder.com/gallery/albums/userpics/Movie_Space_Marine_2.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lord_bunny Posted May 5, 2009 Share Posted May 5, 2009 oh wow, those are cool! Good job! and thier heads are nicely scaled this time too ¬¬ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terrible_Trygon Posted May 5, 2009 Share Posted May 5, 2009 This looks promising. Their all loaded with equipment and bling, their all Ultramarines, the chapter of parading poster boys, and they all are posed like a character out of a action movie posing for his DVD cover shot. The perfect movie marines. I do like this guy the best http://mediawonder.com/gallery/albums/userpics/Movie_Space_Marine_7.jpg A nice homage to Rouge Trader's old Space Marine Sargent.

Garden Ninja Posted May 6, 2009 Author Share Posted May 6, 2009 they are so coolthe green stuff job it great! :D http://mediawonder.com/gallery/albums/userpics/Movie_Space_Marine_3.jpg Hm... this might be harder to remember than it should be. The core of the weapon is a flamer (I mounted it a little further forward in his hand than would be normal for a flamer). I cut off the little fuel can, and replaced it with the wires going to the heavy weapons backpack- I'm pretty sure that part came from the razorback lascannon. The small power packs on the sides of the flamer come from an attack bike multimelta. The scope on the top is just a bolter scope from the plastic space marine kit. The bayonet is from a plastic skeleton set. The small grey box is one of those bits that I could never figure out. It is either from an SM tank or bike kit, but I'm not sure what it was originally intended to be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
krystalmesh Posted May 6, 2009 Share Posted May 6, 2009 this concept seems like a lot of fun...and the minis themselves look awesome. the flamer guy reminds me of the firebat in the starcraft cinematics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother Iencub Posted May 6, 2009 Share Posted May 6, 2009 Uhm, sorry for being stupid, but what are movie marines? Awesome models though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Garden Ninja Posted May 12, 2009 Author Share Posted May 12, 2009 Movie Marines were a joke list from White Dwarf 300 (I think they were in the UK White Dwarf 301). The idea was to present rules for Space Marines that match the "action movie" style of Space Marine fluff. You know, the kind of fluff where Marines don't have to eat, sleep or breath, where terminators can be stomped on by titans and get back up to keep fighting. So, a ten man tactical squad with a rhino is a 1500 point army. I have around a 2000 point army here. Here's the last of the greens. I guess I need to get painting now. http://mediawonder.com/gallery/albums/userpics/Movie_Space_Marine_Razorback.jpg http://mediawonder.com/gallery/albums/userpics/Movie_Space_Marine_10.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh, I can see that- especially in green stuff: http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_qsjlYtt8u4E/SaUBTsnHVZI/AAAAAAAAEPA/evPl8vyAa3g/s400/SnuggieGreen.jpg Thought I thought it looked like a hoodie (especially with the chain hanging from his neck). http://www.allianceunion.com/wp-content/plugins/wp-shopping-cart/product_images/thumbnails/greenhoodie-thumb.jpg Either way, I think he's kind of funny looking.

wiplash Posted May 18, 2009 Share Posted May 18, 2009 Wow this is epic. Are these true scaled or do they just look big naturally. they aren't true scaled but they are lavishly upgraded and stand on taller and bigger bases with fancy rounded edges which normal marines can't afford without move star sallaries :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
