So I'm wanting some Scouts in my Marines now, since they quite good and what not now, but looking at the figs for em, something about em just kind of bothered me. I really liked Scout Sergeant Whatshisname though, and after some comparisons, I decided it was the squatty proportions of the plastic guys that was putting me off. Little bit of plasicard, raising their head up slightly, and I think it really helps em out. Might need to put the head a touch lower however. Anyways, what do you think?

I like it! With that minor tweak they don't look so hunched over and look slightly more dynamic.

I was gonna say that tweek makes it not just dynamic but super heroish. Heck that looks like Robin now.

Here's the full box of em tweaked up. Need to do some Green Stuff work on em now, but not tonight (dinner, survivor and supernatural are more important). Anyways, plans are for necks and a cloak for the cloakless guy, as well as hoods and masks for the others, as I dislike most of the face sculpts, and really don't think I need a screaming sniper in a camo cloak.

You have got way too much time on your hands!!!!!!!

I love it!!!!!

amazing what a little modification can do to a model.

really nice actually!
you got me thinking about making a whole new batch of scouts for my space marines....

keep it up.

Good call on hoodin' them up, that is my one complaint about the plastic scouts.....They all look like Major Chip Hazard from Small Soldiers!!!
