bad buddha Posted September 25, 2010 Share Posted September 25, 2010 here are some pics of my new project, a marine army without tactikal squads. since i mostly play orks i had to make it a bit more proppa than a regular SM army so i am aiming for a diesel punk feel to it. check it out an se what you think! dread with doubble auto cannons http://i557.photobucket.com/albums/ss17/bad_buddha/Space%20Marines%202010/waaaghdamarines009.jpghttp://i557.photobucket.com/albums/ss17/bad_buddha/Space%20Marines%202010/waaaghdamarines010.jpghttp://i557.photobucket.com/albums/ss17/bad_buddha/Space%20Marines%202010/waaaghdamarines011.jpg terminator http://i557.photobucket.com/albums/ss17/bad_buddha/Space%20Marines%202010/waaaghdamarines004.jpghttp://i557.photobucket.com/albums/ss17/bad_buddha/Space%20Marines%202010/waaaghdamarines007.jpg land speeder http://i557.photobucket.com/albums/ss17/bad_buddha/Space%20Marines%202010/waaaghdamarines001.jpghttp://i557.photobucket.com/albums/ss17/bad_buddha/Space%20Marines%202010/waaaghdamarines003.jpg scout http://i557.photobucket.com/albums/ss17/bad_buddha/Space%20Marines%202010/waaaghdamarines015.jpghttp://i557.photobucket.com/albums/ss17/bad_buddha/Space%20Marines%202010/waaaghdamarines013.jpg cheers!

Liquid_awesomes Posted September 25, 2010 Share Posted September 25, 2010 I love them, but i cant help but think that the choppa and the dred look a little too orky. Prehaps try removing the rivets and adding some aquillas and imperial gubbinz to them.

Mithril hound Posted September 25, 2010 Share Posted September 25, 2010 I love that little saw blade hand, and those termis are just inspired. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/211891-how-to-make-marines-proppa/#findComment-2520951 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Myxx Posted September 25, 2010 Share Posted September 25, 2010 I think the models look really cool, but the scout looks to me more like an IG trooper from some feral world. Sort of an Ogryn-light...

CosmicCreations Posted September 25, 2010 Share Posted September 25, 2010 I love these! As long as you keep them along the steam punk (or diesel punk as I believe you put it) then I think these work really well.

Finn Posted September 25, 2010 Share Posted September 25, 2010 Great idea, but looks like orky marines :) If you want to play on the SM codex with orks, this is the best way to go :P I'm LOVING the dread.

Terminatorinhell Posted September 25, 2010 Share Posted September 25, 2010 I like the dreadnought a lot, just get rid of the ork saw blade. Land speeder and Terminator...not too fond of to be honest..way too orky to be steampunk IMO.

The Normish Posted September 25, 2010 Share Posted September 25, 2010 Blasphemous Heresy! Are you using these as an Ork army running on Space Marine Codex? Those are some nice conversions, I will say. I think you got the Steampunk vibe well on for the Terminator.

Wicced Posted September 26, 2010 Share Posted September 26, 2010 nice conversion work, but it's looking too "orkish" to me. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/211891-how-to-make-marines-proppa/#findComment-2521713 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Firepower Posted September 26, 2010 Share Posted September 26, 2010 See, now these guys right here are exactly why giving the Tech Priests wedgies is strictly prohibited in the Codex. The only way they have to vent anger is with a rivet gun and, well, they must've been mighty angry :D . I suppose it should be enough that all the guns are still pointing the right direction. Very creative work here, so much that I'll even overlook the Orkish influence -_- Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/211891-how-to-make-marines-proppa/#findComment-2521783 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slyen Posted September 27, 2010 Share Posted September 27, 2010 I really like the concept. Not a huge fan of the Landspeeder. Maybe its just the approch you took. I dislike the props on the land speeder along with the missile pods, maybe just a differant weapon load out would be better. I don't know really how I would go about improving it but it just does not look right let alone flyable. The Terminator I have a similar issuer with. It looks better than the Landspeeder by far, but still I have issues with it. Again, don't know how I would really work on it and it might just be how the limbs are set up tht bugs me. I did see someone do a conversion (somewhere on B&C) where an assualt squad that looked like they were in diving or space suits. Besicly they just did a kind of bubble over where the helmet was and had a view port in it like the one on a dreadnought sarcophigi. I liked that one. I do love the head swap idea on the scout, though as people say it looks to fearl, ork-ish, or ogryn-ish. West Wind Productions makes minitures for something called "Secrets of the Third Reich". They also do head sprues much like Pig Iron does. Not sure how they work with 40k stuff, but they should match up. Looked into them for so IG conversions orignally but never picked them up. The dreadnought conversion I love though. Even though the chainsaw seems out of place, it makes sense. After all, gun line dreads still have melee attacks. If you were going to swap it out though I would say do it with another sensor bit like on the other side. Looking forward to seeing more of your work!

Mithril hound Posted September 27, 2010 Share Posted September 27, 2010 As a suggestion, i would do a second termi with the hatch open and the pilot looking out with some binoculars. As, its a mecha not an exo suit. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/211891-how-to-make-marines-proppa/#findComment-2522149 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ensis Ferrae Posted October 22, 2010 Share Posted October 22, 2010 I actually think that those scouts with the German style helmets look like a cross between Wehrmacht and Kabuki warrior (as in, they have German helmets and Japanese masks on) Looks good overall, one of the more original ideas i have seen in a marine force Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/211891-how-to-make-marines-proppa/#findComment-2542912 Share on other sites More sharing options...
