[GM Aeneas]

Hello all,

 

This is my first tread start so I thought I should start off with my complete marines of my own chapter Legio Scorpio.

 

First up is 2nd Company Captain Scipio:

I have two more tactical squads and an assault squad primed and on my desk right now. Also three drop pods, three razorbacks, and a dread that have some work done on them.

 

I will post more as I complete them.

 

As always C&C are welcome.

Nice, I like the green I think it looks very nice with the grey.

[Dz'arkoth]

Great colour scheme you've got going on there man. The Librarian looks awesome. The storm shields are cool; actually look capable of giving the 3+ save.

 

The gold is a nice touch on the termie sergeant's head and you've really managed to link all the squads visually with the green and gold. The only criticisms i have are that the green seems a bit messy. Also, the missile launcher smoke looks a little strange. Perhaps just neatening up those extreme highlights would fix it. Not a big deal really.

 

But overall very nice.

[ShotgunFacelift]

I especially like the color scheme/painting on the terminators.

 

How did you make the leaves for the bases?

[GM Aeneas]

The leaves are from a company called Skullcrafts, Skullcrafts.

 

Here is a couple of shots of the stormshields.

[Task Force Gauntlet]

How'd you make those shields?

[GM Aeneas]

How'd you make those shields?

 

Task Force Gauntlet,

 

The shields are made from plastic card.

 

First I cut the stock shields off the hands.

 

Then I cut a 3/4" by 1" rectangle out of 1/16" plastic card

 

For the designs I used a 1/32" piece of plastic card.

 

Some of the designs are the FW icons.

 

To match the original electronics on the back of the shield I used brass wire cut to fit.

 

I will take some wip pic the next time I make them.
