Scar Weaver Posted June 13, 2006 Share Posted June 13, 2006 I have a few of the Mk 2 suits left and wanted to make them into some of those greenish bronze SM statues.I want to use them as senery for my new buildings. I have seen them around but for the life of me cannot find a pic. I also don't know how to replicate the effect. Do any of you guys remember seeing these and how they were done? Also, what should I arm them with? I was thinking a regular bolter (modified to appear from that time). What do you guys think? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NemFX Posted June 14, 2006 Share Posted June 14, 2006 Hit up the Sisters of Battle section of the games workshop site. Statues are covered in the 'how to build a chapel' section. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
