metcalfedan Posted June 4, 2009 Share Posted June 4, 2009 Hey guys, just thought I'd post a new (and separate) topic for my movie marines as I won't be painting them in metallics - so they don't fit in Viva Metallica ;) I've done the first member - the hero: http://i46.photobucket.com/albums/f139/metcalfedan/IMG_0988.jpg http://i46.photobucket.com/albums/f139/metcalfedan/IMG_0989.jpg http://i46.photobucket.com/albums/f139/metcalfedan/IMG_0990.jpg http://i46.photobucket.com/albums/f139/metcalfedan/IMG_0991.jpg http://i46.photobucket.com/albums/f139/metcalfedan/IMG_0992.jpg http://i46.photobucket.com/albums/f139/metcalfedan/IMG_0993.jpg I just need to fill in his right upper leg then he is finished and ready for painting. As for painting, I was thinking of painting the squad in Imperial Fist colours. What do you guys think? P.S. Thanks Doghouse :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

daemon*hunter Posted June 4, 2009 Share Posted June 4, 2009 Looks awesome, I'd paint them Blood Angels, but thats because I love BA ;) Imperial fists would look good though. EDIT: Where can i find movie marine rules? I had a pdf a while ago, but my computer caught fire ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
logemaru Posted June 4, 2009 Share Posted June 4, 2009 Yeah go Fists! But I would say that... I like it anyway. I would probably be inclined to paint a movie marines squad as one of the lesser featured chapters, something you could really sink your teeth into paint-wise. If you want to stick with a yellow theme you could go Lamenters, as they have all that nice checkered detail that you can add (fits in nicely with the BA suggestion from daemon hunter too hehe) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
metcalfedan Posted June 4, 2009 Author Share Posted June 4, 2009 Cool, thanks guys - I'll have a think about the Lamenters, but I'm not very good at painting black and white check patterns... ++EDIT++ Removing link as it is a violation of IP.

logemaru Posted June 4, 2009 Share Posted June 4, 2009 Yeah I have never tried, and I'm sure its not as easy as some make it look. But I've been following your CF's and you certainly have the talent to make these guys look awesome! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Twin .44 Posted June 4, 2009 Share Posted June 4, 2009 +++Mod edit, download link removed+++ I thought it would have been a bad thing to ask for such rules over the site. sweet, I'll be grabbing this once I get home.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Messanger of Death Posted June 4, 2009 Share Posted June 4, 2009 I thought it would have been a bad thing to ask for such rules over the site. These rules aren't from a codex or the rule book but rather from White Dwarf so I think they fall into the 'its safe to ask' domain. Sort of like Apocalypse rules. The Hero has alot of potential. But the head doesn't seem to work for me. Doesn't look battle hardened, but thats just me. The power fist makes it seem all the more appropriate to make this guy an IF or maybe a CF that is out to open up a can of kick ass on some Orks.

Garden Ninja Posted June 4, 2009 Share Posted June 4, 2009 BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! :) Looks good boss. Yeah, I would love to see Imperial Fist Movie marines. make sure you actually complete them!!!!! I've seen about a dozen movie marine project that have gone no where!!!!! I hope you're not talking about mine there. I've just had a lot to paint lately, I'll have some more up soon. Good look for the first guy. Can you do a scale pic so I can see him next to a normal marine? I'm just having trouble seeing the true scale on him. By the way, in the American WD 300, it is "Dude" rather than "Hero." I don't know if they changed that for the British WD 301 version, but the translation has that messed up. And the WD rules are to be had on Dakka Dakka if you look hard enough.

Terrible_Trygon Posted June 4, 2009 Share Posted June 4, 2009 The marine is a great start, but he could do with a 'marine sized' head and a waist. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JMcL63 Posted June 9, 2009 Share Posted June 9, 2009 It's a pity the primer means we can't make out the details, but I like the look of this guy a lot. His pose is characterful and he looks like a battle-hardened campaigner. Could someone please explain to me the idea of 'movie marines' (I've not been around for some time)? :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like its gonna be a paint off.. . . . . Well, only one thing to say Robert my friend... BRING IT ON!!! It's a pity the primer means we can't make out the details, but I like the look of this guy a lot. His pose is characterful and he looks like a battle-hardened campaigner. Could someone please explain to me the idea of 'movie marines' (I've not been around for some time)? Thanks - I'll be re-priming him white once I've finished the leg it'll be a lot clearer. As for Movie Marines: Once apon a time in a White Dwarf studio far away... a bunch of guys thought it would be fun to see how marines would be if they were to star in their own movie - someone made an army list and these are the result. UBER MARINES OF DEATH! Sorry to go off topic, but how do you paint your guardsmen? No probs - skull white base, followed by 2 washes of Gryphonne Sephia for the armour and 2 washes of Badab Black for the cloth. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
