Post your... RT-era Marines

Recommended Posts

Sorry to hop on the bandwagon with the "post your" threads, but this is something I'm very interested in. I'm a big collector of Rogue Trader-era minis, and you don't see too many out there. I'd like to see what others on this board may have lurking in their display cases.

 

This is my favorite figure I've done so far.

Linkage:

Imperial Fist

Wolf Guard - Squad

Injured Dark Angel

 

I also have another 40 or so Marines unpainted. I'll try to get a scan of them if anyone is interested in seeing what else I have lying about.

Ha! The Dark Angel looks like he ran into Wolfy-boy's powerfist! :huh: Perfect! I love the colour-graded armour though, not as in your face as GW's Wolves, more subtle end it's set against that base wonderfully well - got anymore?

Thanks for the kind words. I'm hoping there will be some more stuff posted here, I'd really like to see some other people's efforts at classic minis.

 

Thu'Ook - Have you tried Stuff of Legends? www.solegends.com is a great resource for old miniature collectors. They have scans of many old GW/Citadel catalogs. Try this page. I'm not sure if that is the right flamer dude, though.

Great minis you've got there!

The only RT era space marine ( atleast.. I think its RT era) I had was Leman Russ and his 2 wolves. Sadly, he and one of his wolves was stolen right out from under my nose during a local store event. I've heard that GW still sells in and I might pick it up just to paint.

 

I should see if my friend still has his army of RT marines at his parents house and go take a few pics. He really lucked out and bought a bunch on sale from a hobby shop which, sold of its excess stock because the new minis had came out and no one wanted the RT stuff anymore. I think he had upwards of 5000 points in the end.

Snarl - Thats a bummer about the Leman Russ. Sadly I haven't found him yet. I try not to buy the re-casts from GW as I find the molds are getting worn out and the quality isn't there. I'm very picky.

 

Good stuff there grazer and BLZBOB. How bout some closeups?

 

It's a bummer my digital camera isn't working. I'm almost done with another mini right now. Linky. The dude in the very bottom right corner with the bionic arm is the one.

 

Keep 'em coming guys!!!
