Athamas Posted June 1, 2006 Share Posted June 1, 2006 ok, thought you guys mite like to see these, [i tend to live on warseer as my main army is tau... ] Anyway, sometime ago i had a very silly idea.. creat my own marines.. all multipart, all highly posable.. all very different! for those that are bound to ask... yes those bits are what you think they are... no im not going to tell you how i did it and bad you for even asking in the first place as the mods look down apon such discussion, take such talk elsewere.. origional warrser thread is LINK REMOVED BY THE INQUISITION! Why did people let me do this? i have created super marines! http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v126/athamas/IMG_3340.jpg yeah, so they are gona be a mite on the large side! -_-..... oh well.. scare the hell out of my opponant when my marines dwarf their troops.. probbaly a good idea i am only having drop pods as transports here is my current Army list, part of the problem is also the blue tack spacing everything... superglue takes up alot less space! i need to neated up the left hand lower leg [in the pic], as i had to extend it abit, as it was shorter than the other side... the right hand thigh needs the cabling adding to the back of the knee joint.. and the waist/groin needs the right side finishing off like the left, and the bottom 'tail' flap needs to be added... here is a close up of the wais and legs http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v126/athamas/IMG_3341.jpg it looks really grainy, but its not.. blame the blue tack and my camera not focusing properly then i think i may be finnished! then its a case of finding all the extra stuff i want to add and casting a few magics to replicate them all! Fluff for the army is being worked on... and should be done soon, as i need to get it out of my head so i can put physics revision in there... ill post it somewhere here once its done... ++EDITED BY HEMAL - LINK TO WARSEER REMOVED++ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chronophague Posted June 1, 2006 Share Posted June 1, 2006 Large marines are hardly a "new" thing. Anyway, the models looks nice, how many "true scale" marines have you done this far? That your first one? What kind of colour scheme you got? Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ahmato Posted June 1, 2006 Share Posted June 1, 2006 Thing is, they are not actually any more powerful then normal marines. SO, they are still suspectible to be shot apart by a Lasgun, shot by a man half the size -_- This is really a good start, though, I'd love to see a whole army. I've seen people do a squad or two, but never really an army... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Athamas Posted June 1, 2006 Author Share Posted June 1, 2006 as noted.. ill be using arcane magics to creat an army from this 1 guy! the true scale thing was an accident.. it just happened as making all the joints lengthed the model somwewhat, and the torso was just made bigger as i wanted more armour on it.. and the rest followed on.. @Ahmato i know they die just te same, but will people remember that at first Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chronophague Posted June 1, 2006 Share Posted June 1, 2006 as noted.. ill be using arcane magics to creat an army from this 1 guy! Yes yes, you are going to cast millions of parts and make your army from that. Just as long as you don't talk about mold making or casting in general you'll be ok. You can stop talking about magics. Your posts will offcourse be evaluated by the mods depending on how you go about the subject, if it's seen as a "casting GW stuff rocks" thread, it might be shut down.

Hemal Posted June 1, 2006 Share Posted June 1, 2006 It's already getting pretty far down the line....casting a whle army = unacceptable... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers Now, now Chronophague, I think you should have read the whole thread, before jumping to conclusions; for those that are bound to ask... yes those bits are what you think they are... no im not going to tell you how i did it and bad you for even asking in the first place as the mods look down apon such discussion, take such talk elsewere.. origional warrser thread is As long as he doesn't say how he does it, there should be no GW issues.

Chronophague Posted June 1, 2006 Share Posted June 1, 2006 @ahmato I think you SHOULD read some more... here's a quote from his Warseer thread that is.. take the basics of a marine torso.. modify them.. cast them.. and make a marine force out of said force! So, it's pretty clear, since he posted the link, people will know the second they read it. So maybe it's more you than me jumping to conculsions.

madscuzzy Posted June 1, 2006 Share Posted June 1, 2006 Now now... onto the main topic at hand. The legs look rather on the thin side... you gonna bulk them up? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Athamas Posted June 1, 2006 Author Share Posted June 1, 2006 yeah, was pointed out on warseer also.. i belive the problem lies in the bluetack stopping the legs from sitting as far into the greaves as they should.. shotening then should not be a problem but i need to finish them before ill know for sure Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
