Something about them just screams Bioshock to me..............

 

They are very good conversions, but they look a little too much like Ork Killa Kans for me to take them seriously as Marines.

 

Great work though!

Oh those are great, weirdtastic and very deiselpunk. I can imagine them clanking along, bolts bouncing off them as they trash and batter their way to the enemy and open fire spitting shell casing all over. Brilliant. I look forward to seeing what wonders you cook up as the army grows.

 

Is it me or does that tech have a strange 'big daddy' familiarity to it? :(

A great start to this army, they are looking very characterful models already!

 

I would stick to calling them Steampunk though as that is the name people will know more. :lol:

 

@Lestat - What do you think is the inspiration for Bioshock.. oh wait.. steampunk! ;)

I realise that - that's why I made the connection. You don't have to make a childish comment to point it out.

The Techmarine especially looks very much inspired by Big Daddy. The whole Steampunk theme does fit in with the background fluff of 40k.

I wouldn't say they're truly steampunk though. The Chapter master ertainly exudes Steampunnk, but the terminators themselves are, I would say, more diesel than steam.

 

 

I also LOVE these marines, by the way. I'm looking forward to power armour!

Inquisitorial investigators have been dispatched to your home to test for Greenskin corruption of your soul. Have a nice day.

 

Jokes aside, very strange, very inspired stuff here.

Okay, this is proabably from me and me alone, but that one vaguely reminds me of the Ball from Mobile Suit Gundam. Go figure.

 

 

For those only familiar with Wing he means this one.

...wow...as usually you do some of the best conversions to be seen on the net. Congrats man!

I presume these will go with your orky/beakie dread, or are they going to be separate projects??

 

Looking forward to seeing progress!!

when i saw this post i thought of space marines with steam powered back packs, but this is way more awesome then that, Love it, though the "termies" could do with an exhaust sticking out the back belching thick black smoke :P
