I have a theme song. Its 'Blow Me Away' by Breaking Benjamin. Excellent track.

 

@Natanael: Love it, nice to see more True Scales.

Actually, why doesnt everyone make a true scale marine? Would be cool to see.

 

 

I have True Scaled my captain and am proceeding onto squad 2. Both will have 5 men each, hopefully ending up with:

Captain, Librarian, Techmarine, Tac sqd 1 w/ flamer, Tac sqd 2 w/ Plasma.

 

Ill have pics soon.

@ Firenze: Yep, everyone should just make TS-marines. =D Problem is that GW would stop selling regular marines and go all TDA then.

 

 

Haha, thats awesome ;)

 

And if GW did start making TDA, or True scale, whatnot. It wouldn't be bad,....except that EVERYTHING would probably double in price... :cuss

 

Edit: hah hah. 5th edition would be OOP! hahahha

Very true. So, everyone, stop making true scale marines, and give all you got to me. I'll keep them safe :tu: Better not put anyone else in the position of having and aweso.. eh... STRANGE army that GW might start to produce because of their... well... "strangeness" ;)

@ Firenze: 6h? You are crazy :blush: I'd love to see some pics of that army. I guess I need to speed up my process if I am to compeate with that kind of productivity :P

 

@ Terminatorsinhell: I commented in your other thread. Hope you understood what I meant.

Termie, I think that the face needs a light wash, like Natanael said. And the gold could maybe use some really watered down coats of gold on top, just to get rid of the few brush strokes.

 

 

Kooked these up tonight guys. Took me about...2 hours from start to finish...talk about productivity... :lol:

I need some help with my TS-guys. Does this look good enough, or do I need to scale up the backpacks as well? They would only become wider if I did.

Dont make them wider. It just doesnt look right when they are wider.

 

On that note though, they are looking pretty. A little more detail on the chest would be nice (the hardest part I admit) and maybd a little cleaning up the edges with a knife, but they look ready for paint!

You got to love fast replys :( I was thinking of doing it the Lamenter way, but it seems like a lot of work for very little gain. Now I can start gluing the arms/heads/backpacks and add the last GS-detail (as you said, Firenze) and then they are gonna get painted. Just need to get the right paints as well.

 

And btw, do you think the "polearms" fit with the AL style? I like them a lot, but keep thinking that it is not really AL. It is also the easiest way of converting thunder hammers into normal weapons.
