Nice to see that you've painted the Apothecary. Great choice of head and I like the shoulder pad.

Was it okay to paint even with the pose I gave it? I was worried that some of the belt details would have been a pain to apply paint to.

I would have loved to contribute to this, shame im in the UK. Loving all the marines!

Oh.. you can! Gathering Storm, Muller, and a few others across the Atlantic have helped out with this!

Send me a PM and we can talk about what you can do and what I need..

No, it was fine to paint, a lot of fun, actually.

I'm glad that you enjoyed painting it Brian. It was my first attempt at posing a Space Marine. You did a great job and the white is nice and crisp.

i definately want in on this! am gonna PM you for help.

Looking forward to my marine arriving in the post, so that I can contribute too. This is a great idea!

Hey Porkuslime, been a long time! Glad to see the deathwatch army is still going great guns! Those last 3 additions look great!

Is there a chapter that you are still looking for?

There are a couple I am still looking for, yes.. most of those are waiting for me to get some Mentor Legion shoulderpads, (need 4) as well as FW Raven Guard shoulderpads (need 3).. which will allow me to do Raven Guard, Hawk Lords, Mentor Legion, White Consuls, and a couple others.

The ONLY miniature I have right now that is available for me to mail out to someone is the Space Wolf chapter, and he is part of my "command squad" and I need a SW backpack to finish him.

i would trade you another model if you would like of another chapter, either one of my other DIY chapters, or a chapter of your choosing!

porkuslime - i was looking through your gallery and at all the volunteered marines, it's a really cool project. By now you must have quite a few points worth of marines, how many are you up to? Do you have an army wide photo of them all?

Why yes, I just took shots last week..

As far as total point value, I haven't quite gotten it totalled up yet.. it is over 2000 thanks to the Vanguards.. and I keep adding more models, so the points keep fluctuating..

Here is an Army Shot as of 10 days ago..

Scout Sniper Squad Abrastos (missile launcher)



Scout Sniper Squad Clancy (missile launcher)



Scout Sniper Squad Hewano (heavy bolter)

Sternguard Squad "Sargeant to be promoted later" - 2 Combimeltas, 1 Combiflamer .. no sarge yet (still awaiting a certain Dakka Mod to send him!) - as well as a Rhino with custom =I= panels..



Vanguard Squad Dobson - 4 power weapons, 2 chainswords..

Wow... if you ever decide to do homebrew chapters, I'd be more than willing to contribute. Check the link in my sig if you want to check them out.
