Ok let's roll























Love or Rage, I will entertain both

Also if you have questions feel free to ask. The sequin thingies are earrings from the craft store. It was like 20 bucks to get all those but it was well worth it. The bare heads are high elf archers. Like I said if something isn't clear just ask and I will answer.

Um,well...they certainly are pretty.
Actualy I like them,very well painted and not an angry bald headed screaming marine in the bunch,nice work.

The painting technique for shading and all that technical stuff is awesome. Very impressive work.

The over all impression of the army just doesn't work for me. But like I said, the painting and converting itself is masterful.

May i ask why?...

i think i just went insane. i'd be ashamed to lose to this. this is epic win.

See,the over all impresion of this army is the main reason I like it,it shows alot of thought on the part of it's creator,and more so it's not "just another "SM army.
Of course this is just my opinion..but again I say well done.

i feel vaguely violated, like, that isnt how marines are sposed to be :(

on another note, they do look great, i like the highlighting and similar on the land raider

You bedazzled them.....Face + Palm.

Cool and unique army, You should totally have them fight some hello kitty/angry marines.

Thanks guys. I am glad the army is causing you to question the Grimdark!

Is this another Women of the Adeptus Astartes thread?

hmm... Painted in pink and purple... Picking flowers... have love-hearts all over... Are you sure they aren't Eldar ??

Seriously though, they do look cool, they are very nicely painted, especially the flag, very manga.

No they are men.

Just very vain and wimpy men.

I keep looking for a rainbow bumper sticker on one of the tanks! I am sure its there some where...come on where is it!

Nice work man, not sure why you did it but to each his own. Still Its nice work.

The paintwork is great, but I don't entirely get it.

Like, is it supposed to be ironic? Or for a girl?

Didn't you once do a great looking army that everyone was crying about because they felt it looked too Nazi? Wouldn't it be mandatory for you to play both these armies at the same time?

Pretty Marines are just an internet meme poking fun at the idea of "grimdark" and the seriousness behind it.

God I am so glad I decided against playing soul drinkers now lol. Was this for a female? They look really great I just cant take them seriously..I keep thinking "We heart daddy Emperor hes fabulous." =/

interesting... nice paint job though.

GMM i love your work no matter what color you choose.
Because its just so well done and natural looking that its believable.

You are 天下無雙

With great power, comes great responsibility. Uncle Ben would be disappointed.

Why oh why didn't you drill the barrels out?

Otherwise I got a chuckle out of the sparkly vehicles. Being secure and having a sense of humor I can appreciate them. It shows some dedication to take the meme this far.

Those are incredible!
"Pruple Rain"?! Vindicator?!
Gonna party like it's 40,099.
Really nice job GMMStudios.

Over all i love them, it is something i personally never would have done but wow, the paint is just so clean and well done. You could probobly make eldar look really threatening too....

When you go as far as creating almost exact copies of Nazi propaganda, and trying really hard to copy the swastika without actually copying it, I'd say it's too much.

...anyway, moving on!


This army...my god, this army. It's atrocious, it's absolutely hideous, it's quite possibly one of the worst armies I've ever laid eyes on. Nicely done.

I like how you went the extra mile and even got Forge World bits for this army. It's so utterly ridiculous and yet so much time and money went into it, it's insane. Good luck on the auction, I'd love to buy it myself but I don't have that kind of cash.

I couldn't agree more.

That being said, I want it! Just to humiliate all my opponents with.

If only you had painted up a power list :(

Huh.

Now I know what it feels like to open up Lamarchand's box.

Beautifully converted and painted. I'm very impressed.

This being said, they have clearly been corrupted by vile Slanaashi agents or the insidious Eldar.
As such, I mark thee Diabolus Extremis.
Exterminatus to commence immediately.

(Lovely hairstyles though, definitely a shame they all have to die. )

Pfft, you misquoted me. Although you ended up praising him for it yourself in the next sentence, so...nevermind?

Amazing execution of a curious idea
