Hi there,

Just finished painting my first true scale space marine. It's actually one of the aobr box and it wass hell to cut this thing up and past it back together. I used lots of greenstuff and the sword of the IG command squad set.

Alsoo Cookies for the one who guesses what I used for the backpackthingy.

Please give me comments/critisism on painting and sculpting.

Sorry for poor quality pictures. GF took her camera back and perhaps I'll use it next weekend to create some better pics.

For now, get ready...

Her it comes!

Personally i think you had a good try at it but the pose adn the model doesn't look right i would suggest checking out this tutorial : http://www.minus1mod.com/smf/index.php?topic=39.0

The back pack is the canisters for the multi melta

i can see you used a AoBR marine? with alot of green stuff, id say it looks out of place because true scale is converted from terminator models for a beef cake look or arms and body and legs extended with plasticard to raise the size of the marine.
