15mm 40K project.

[ImperialTemplari]

Hi guys

Disclaimer - these are for my own collection only and will not be sold or traded, I am not endorsing this as an alternative to 28mm 40K, as the work required is extream, its just a personal challange for my modeling skills, and I thought this project may be of interest to some here.

As well as collecting GW figures, I also have a large 15mm sci fi collection, and I have decided, (mainly for the fun of it, and to see if I could do it) to create serveral 15mm 40K forces, the forces I will be creating will be done in this order,

Blood Angels or Flesh tearers - not 100% sure yet, I really like the Fleash Tearers, but because they are 15mm I want an instantly recognizable Chapter and I want it to be brightly coloured to stand out as much as possible, so Blood Angels maybe more suitable.

Tyranid

Death guard

Imperial guard

Tau

Realistically, this is probably a decades worth of work.

The Blood Angel force will consist of 3 x 10 man tactical squads the commanders will be sculpted from scratch, 1 x 5 man devastator squad with sculpted commander, 1 x 10 man Assault squad in jump packs, 1 x 10 man Death company Assault squad in jump packs, 1 x 10 man scout squad with shot guns, 1 x 5 man Terminator squad with lightening claws, 1 x 5 man terminator squad with bolters, the termies will probably need to be sculpted from scratch unless I find something suitable to convert and a command squad consisting of 1 commander, 1 Chaplain, 1 apothecary, a standard bearer, and a Veteran Sgt, I may also have a librarian. They will be supported by 2 dreadnoughts from GW and some converted armoured vehicles.

It's safe to say you have my attention, man. Could we see the front side of 'em?

[ImperialTemplari]

New pics added to the original post.

[Myxx]

add me to the interested list. I can hardly manage the full size figs, let alone a half sized batch... Cheers and good luck, I'll be watching this for sure...

[Hyaenidae]

Clever, man. Great job on these, you have far more patience than I, heh heh. I probably would have lost my mind trying to greenstuff all those tiny parts. Looking forward to some paint, man!

I love how you used bolt pistols for heavy bolters hehe.

Hi guys, here is 1 of 3 tactical squads ready for paint, as you can see there are some dead Genestealers littering the bases, they will be my next 15mm 40K project, but I will give the Genestealers in the army 4 arms, couldn't be bothered with the dead one, (but thats a bit off yet, after I have painted these 3 squads I will only be a 1/4 of the way through the space marine infantry) at the bottom of the pics there are some shots of my WIP Jump pack assault marines. I may have to fiddle with these a bit more to fit the shoulder pads under the jump packs.

Hi guys, here is the 1st squad, 2nd company of the Blood angels, nearly finished, a question, my next 15mm 40K army will be Tyranids, the most iconic colour scheme for geansteelers is blue/purple but I am not to keen on that colour, what is the next most recognizable colour? will use this on the nid on the base as a tester, so what do you think? I'm pretty happy with them.

I like these more than I thought I would. You could possibly spend a bit more time making the lines a bit harder in the sculpting, but they definitely look very much like Blood Angels.

Hi guys, I was asked for a comparison pic, so here is a 15mm Blood Angel with a regular GW Chaos marine and GW Chaos Termi that I enlarged a bit more to Truescale, working on some Death Company at the moment.

Hi guys, need some help with my first character, I didn't do a well know character, as I am still practicing, so don't really know what to make him, what do you think? make him a captain, or a member of a veteran assault squad, I have decided I need to pimp him up a bit, will add some detail to his thunder hammer and may add a tabbard, any other ideas?

I am absolutely in love with the plasma glow! It kooks stunning on the scale photo...

[Mr Yellow]

Now this is just looking like too much fun not to do myself. Consider your idea well and truly nicked, though I will see your pa guys and raise you some termies perhaps.

 

Oh and make the hammer head bigger.

Hi guys, WIP pics of my second tactical squad, numerically its actually the 3rd squad, but I liked the yellow knee pad with red drop of the 3rd squad so painted them up instead of the 2nd squad, unless I decide to make the whole company (undecided yet) I will probably only do 2 or 3 tactical squads, so will pick the most colourful, I left the pack pack stabilizers black on this squad, just for a little variation, the Sergeant has my first attempt at a chainsword, and I'm pretty happy with it, I will just add a couple of details to future chainswords, still tossing up whether to give all the sergeants back banners, what do you think? banners or no banners? If I do them I may do all the banners in one hit after the army is completed. Click here to visit my blog

Hi LamenterMarine it would be good to see another 15mm project, I will be doing Terminators for my army, what chapter would you do? Lamenters?

Sorry for the poor photos, its very sunny here today, when they and the 1st squad are completed I will get better pics up.

Well, my only criticism is that they are not Black Templars, but other than that, I think you're doing a brilliant job.
