Captain jOE Posted December 14, 2011 Share Posted December 14, 2011 I want to do some space marine scouts that have scout legs, cadian shock trooper bodies, space marine scout arms, and these heads http://www.pig-iron-productions.com/pi2-he...2f044e5141e5c48 . My one question is how to shock troopers bodies match up to scout bodies? Are the shock trooper torsos a tiny bit smaller? If so, do the bolter carrying scout arms fit on them "well enough" or are they just too small to pull it off without a buffer between the arms and the body? Thanks in advance.

Chapter Master Ignis Domus Posted December 14, 2011 Share Posted December 14, 2011 Scout arms fit pretty much exactly. I often stick scout bits on my guardsmen as variation, so it should work well for you if you're using them as scouts. In fact, I have some scout models lying around that are mostly Cadians since I ran out of torso bits.

Chapter Master Ignis Domus Posted December 14, 2011 Share Posted December 14, 2011 Sadly no. A fair number were annihilated by the Xenos Psyker Kitten, and the rest are in storage somewhere. I may be able to build one out of some spare bits, though.

ShinyRhino Posted December 14, 2011 Share Posted December 14, 2011 Some Google searching might fnid what you're after. Here's a shot (stolen from a Warseer thread via Google Image Search) of Scout legs, Cadian torsos, and Cadian arms: http://media.photobucket.com/image/recent/...04/IMG_1508.jpg Some IG vets made form the same parts: http://miniaturetim.blogspot.com/2011/12/c...rmtroopers.html Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/243489-space-marine-scout-vs-imperial-shock-trooper-scaling/#findComment-2944263 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain jOE Posted December 15, 2011 Author Share Posted December 15, 2011 Yeah I found a lot of pics like that. So I knew that the leg swap would work. I was just really worried about the thickness of the torso. Becuase I wanted to put the bolter-carrying scout arms on the torsos.

ShinyRhino Posted December 15, 2011 Share Posted December 15, 2011 Ah, gotcha. The consensus is that they're a tad large, but not overly so. The Scout arms are just a tad longer than the IG arms. http://www.40konline.com/community/index.php?topic=174228.0 Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/243489-space-marine-scout-vs-imperial-shock-trooper-scaling/#findComment-2944955 Share on other sites More sharing options...
