Asmondeus Posted June 24, 2006 Share Posted June 24, 2006 great conversion :ph34r: the detail are amazing, i think the first head is from the assault terminator sergant and the other one are from the old tactical squad sergant. i would go for the first head because it's a bit smaller than the other and would make the marine look bigger. can't wait to see it finished.N Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/90257-pre-heresy-ultramarine/#findComment-1038398 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dragoonman Posted June 24, 2006 Share Posted June 24, 2006 Oh. My. God. :ph34r: You are amazing! :ph34r: That is one heck of an Ultramarine. The whole thing works well, and you used all the old parts. <3 the old bolt pistols. One little thing caught ym eye though, the plasticard on the legs is sepparate at the back. If I were you, I'd fill in the gap and make them joined, like termi armour, and not like plasticard bent and glued on legs. <.< And a second vote for the first head.

thebigtea Posted June 24, 2006 Share Posted June 24, 2006 I really like it, nice work with the card and GS. I would however put a helmet on the guy. One of the earlier Mks, but I am not a fan of Marines with no helmet on...never seemed right. Very Nice work though Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/90257-pre-heresy-ultramarine/#findComment-1038405 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dragoonman Posted June 24, 2006 Share Posted June 24, 2006 Thinking back on it, yeah, a helmet would add to it. Since I don;t think you wanna order the FW Red Scorpions (amazing models =P ), for a pre-heresy look, why not try some filed down chaos helms?

HellChyld Posted June 24, 2006 Share Posted June 24, 2006 excellent piece. BT sprue head for older armor variant helmet would be nice but then head one would do well also. I agree you need to seal up the back of the legs with GS to give it that little extra. look forward to seeing him finished Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/90257-pre-heresy-ultramarine/#findComment-1038471 Share on other sites More sharing options...
pinkbunny Posted June 25, 2006 Share Posted June 25, 2006 ZOMG! amazing! i would go with head #2 love the marine, whichever head you choose Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/90257-pre-heresy-ultramarine/#findComment-1038720 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Black Daemon Templar Posted June 25, 2006 Share Posted June 25, 2006 Out of the two I would go for #1 as it's a much better sculpt. If I were to choose a head though I would grab the new RS veteran head as seen here (wonder if it's pre-heresy though <_< http://www.forgeworld.co.uk/spacemarines/R...ions/vetsg2.jpg +++ Edit: not hotlinking pictures from another site! +++ Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/90257-pre-heresy-ultramarine/#findComment-1038747 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darkmessiah Posted July 2, 2006 Author Share Posted July 2, 2006 rite iv decided to go for the term sgt head, will be arrivin in the post soon, but people have suggested a helmet, i quite like the idea but i designed the collar to fit a head in so a helmet wont fit, but am thinking about puttin it on the backpack. am doin a preheresy version of of the honour guard champtions helemt. its a little on the rough side at the moment and the head peice will be a solid peice of metal simialr to the pics (but alot thicker). so am basically after some candc. cheers http://i3.tinypic.com/16h5j4p.jpg http://i4.tinypic.com/16h67hk.jpg http://i5.tinypic.com/16h67mu.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/90257-pre-heresy-ultramarine/#findComment-1044375 Share on other sites More sharing options...
