My New Sternguard Marine


GrunTeufel

Recommended Posts

Okay, I just finished a kitbash idea of mine. I really like the old sternguard marines. I hate the new robed ones, they look too crowded and over the top. Brother Duncs inspired me actually. I wanted a uniform look and I am quite satisfied with the result. 

 

Head, legs and the bolter arms are from the death company box, shoulder pads are from the new sternguard box. I modified the bolter with a scope and the magazine from a terminator stormbolter. I am planning to make more with special weapons and combi bolters.

Great kitbash.

 

Agree the new SG are busy, but they are perfect for diluting down to make more understated models, and the sashes go great with librarians!

 

Now that's a thought! I was planning to make a librarian with a jump pack and yes now that I look at it, the legs from the sternguard box makes perfect sense. I am okay with sashes as long as they are on a librarian. I hate the way they look on regular marines. They look too ceremonial and awkward in most cases.

Lovely stuff.

 

How did you get that nice, soft red?

 

Layers. I thin the red to the consistency of water and I apply it to the surface in layers until I get the tone I want. I use blood red by the way. I don't use base colors or anything. I don't prime my models either.

Yup, the SG serge torso sash and waist sash are perfect. Add a shoulderpad psychic hood, your jump pack and a force weapon and youre golden.
