I don't think there is one of these already

just post your own SM chapter here!

i want to see what differet colours would look like on Marines

oh and please say which paint you used thanks

**Reaper6**

OK ! You asked for it ! I've got 3 on the go at the moment, and another in the planning stage :

First came the Ice Panthers : Ice Blue & Skull White -

Then the Ice Wolves : Space Wolf Grey and Skull White (shoulder pads vary) -

Currently developing an (as yet) Un-named Blood Angels Successor : Blood Red and Grey (shade to be finalised) -

And a Dark Angels Successor (Jade Falcons) waiting in the wings which will be Dark Angels Green and Chaos Black (Refer to Wolves, replacing the white with green and grey with black).

Next...

(Oh, BTW, it would have helped kick things off if you had a pic or two to illustrate your point. MeanGreenStompa posted a couple of useful hints here :http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/303436.page )

The Sh*t Eagles.

**StubbyGB**

Well, the Sh*t Eagles dont live up to their name. They should be called The Stunning Eagles.

**Reaper6**

Holy Crap ! (Sorry - just couldn't resist

). I'm impressed, you've made a disgusting thought into a damn fine result

Just one question though, and I'm sure I'll regret this, but why white helmets ?

**31rls31**

keep up the happy painting

**shadow chaplain**

These are the only 2 models I've actually painted so far both of my chapter and in its paint scheme.
The chapter is called The Shadow Chapel and is a semi-heretical organization determined to free the Emperor from the shackles of the Golden Throne, believing him held captive there by the high lords of Terra.
Third image is the scheme I'll be painting my space wolves auxiliaries.

**Judge Radd**

I'm really quite proud of my DIY chapter...
I think I went over the top with the background section though...

**A Black Ram**

As much as I HATE space marines, when I had AOBR, I painted them up snakebite leather, with regal blue trim, and called them "the blue bloods". Their icon was a half skull, half SM helm. I know it was lame, but I didn't really like space marines.

**Mewiththeface**

I LOLL'D hard at SH*t Eagles. You just made it seem so serious (becuase I was looking about your avatar while saying it). Sexy paint job.

**fox-light713**

My chapter Fox Marines (space wolves with a fox theam)

**Orkwarboss**

**~UnDeAd~**

**Saltoric**

Grey Ravens - using vanilla marine codex.

Painted using adaptus battlegrey, codex grey highlight then badab black.
Red on shoulderpads is just scab red then badab
Red for cloak is scab red badab, scab highlight, mechrite red highlight, blood red hightlight

More pics in my blog (needs to be updated) which is in my sig.

Normal marines

Mix of squads

Scouts (my favourite unit in army) front

Scouts back

**romeo.lima**

I have since switched over to the Black Templars and am currently in the process of constructing an army, but I used to paint my own chapter, the Knights of the Red Cross just for kicks.

Knights of the Red Cross

And a random old metal scout

For the red armor, I used Scab Red as a basecoat, layered that with Red Gore, then added highlights of Mechrite Red and Blood Red.
For the bone, I started with Bestial Brown, moved on to Bleached Bone, then final highlights were with Skull White.
Leather: Scorched Brown highlighted with Bestial Brown, washed with Devlan Mud.
Cloth goes like this: Graveyard Earth, Devlan Mud, Desert Yellow and finally Kommando Khaki. Extreme highlights of Bleached Bone, if I felt like it.

First off, I'm humbled to post my boys here in this kind of company. I seldom find the time or the patience to finish a paint job, I'm definitely more of a modeler and converter than painter. My first army though, were Blood Angel successors and I've waffled a lot on what to actually call them. Right now I'm kind of going with Dark Enforcers.
Basically Blood Angels in black with BA heraldry kept on the shoulder pads. (red for troopers, yellow for sgts) Not original or really visually striking but it was my first army and I was going to use my space marines for Coalition Dead Boy troopers when we play ed Rifts. Now too many models to repaint or alter a theme.
The bolter trooper is one of my favorite conversions, very simply done but he always draws coments on the table.

**Irdiumstern**

I thought the topic of this was unique chapters, not "Ultramarines and all the different colors they come in" . . .

**warboss**

Here's a sample from my Sons of Sanguinus BA Successor Chapter. I went for a mix of death company coloring and the rogue trader 1st edition Dark Angels Deathwing look (when they were black like the ravenwing).

**jgemrich**

The name came from a game I was having with a friend. The previous Crimson Harriers performed poorly at best and lousy in reality. "I think those should be named the Sh*t Eagles until they start winning". The name has stuck since.

Just one question though, and I'm sure I'll regret this, but why white helmets ?

My regs all have white helmets. The vets red. Terminators/officers a combination. My Libby also is brown.

What colours are used there? And fantastic work on those mate

Brown. Vallejo Tank brown (Air color) w/ a black wash then blocked painted again highilight w/ Ochre brown and again Ochre brown w/ some bone white. Reds are Mechrite, washed black, highlight with Red Gore, Bloody Red, Fire orange, in order w/ blending. White is Astronomicon Grey, washed black. Blocked w/ grey again followed by white highlights.

More can be seen here.
