Carcharodons, or as some would say the Space Sharks.

You would post an awesome scheme of an army I was thinking of starting (or at least buying Tyberos)

I do own Tyberos, which is why the one I painted for Whalemusic360 had two power swords.

Tyberos, because just having lightning claws is not enough, I have to chainfist you at the same time.

Thanks btemple, I'm not at home atm, but I should have something posted for you in the next few days

Beautiful work btemple0.... very impressive.

Hey guys, been a long while since I've posted as I'm still behind in my trades... however I have a proposal if anyone is interested.


My 2nd/3rd sternguard was an early experiment when I was still sorting out how I was going to build them. He looks really good, but over the time since his creation, my sternguard has moved to an exclusively Mk 6 armor squad, and as you can see, this gent is Mk 7. So I'm looking to trade him for something I need. He is a veteran of many battles, and now sports a combi-plasma pod on his gun.



What I need is a librarian. Plain old libby with a force weapon and bolt pistol. Since I plan on running him with my main army, I'd like him to be something of like quality and with either a beakie (or earlier) helmet or bare headed. It's not that important if the rest of the marine is Mk 6... but the modern helmet is such a give-a-way that I'd like that specific. Other than that, you can build him however you'd like so long as he's WYSIWYG.

The benefit for you is that you won't have to wait 6 months or more for me to get around to your trade... the negative is it isn't custom made for you... but it was custom made. And... maybe all that battle experience will come with him.

Please PM me if you're interested.

Many thanks,
Gits

battle tested????

As I recall he died every battle didn't he? lol, still a gorgeous marine Git. I hope he finds a nice new home with caring owners.

His gene seed survived!

And I think he's only blown himself up with his plasma gun twice...

I'll take you up on your sternguard/libby swap if you want me
That thing looks awesome (not to mention getting to own one of Gitsplitta's famous tranquility patterns)

@Gits - Thanks for the positive feedback, and I am sure I will get my pattern down as I go along.

As for the plasma gun blowing him up, never happened, his gun was fortunate enough to have one of those directtional vents installed, he just played dead to avoid getting shot at more.

Hey btemple0, Do you think you could use this bad boy as a villain in one of your games?

Here is my latest trade to graven. Lamenter Terminator supporting a Mentor sarge. Still need to mail out

Mentor Sarge
[

Very nice work SL! Love the diorama behind them too!

Whalemusic's devestator Sarge.




slightly different angle


dramatic lighting lamenter..or as I like to say.. " As soon as the dev sarge finished his song , he drew his chainsword and disemboweled Simon.. it was always planned to be apart of the act!"

SL

PS. Thanks git for helping with the pics

Very nice again... dramatic even without the lighting.

Very cool. Looking forward to having him lead the somehow long surviving plama cannon squad! What kind of breast plate was that originally?

Can't remember. Almost all of my kits are broken down into bits. I added the small peice in the front to make it look slightly different.

All my Lamenters basic troops will have older, more gothic looking armor.

PS. I think I saved your addy. but PM me anyway and I'll get this guy mailed tomorrow!

SL

Oh! I'm truly impressed, and count myself a lucky chap! Gracias amigo!

NP..hope you enjoy as much as the ones I got from you. Tough to top.

I think it's my best white yet, I went with a cleaner white look Thanks to Iffy's work and inspiration. I can't seem to get the multi white you do. My attempt look like all the seams were leaking oil.

Will be in the mail asap!

SL

Don't forget too if you want a fiction story about your marine, I have a thread located in the Fiction Forums for such a story!

No pics this time, but the wip is farther along
Should be done with your bike soon Whale, and your plasma cannon dev has been done since forever. Pretty sure I posted pics of him a while back

I'm waiting on some Badab Black, but am stuck until I can get some. Dread is hacked up, but not yet together.

Im nearly out of badab black, so Im saving it for your bike
Would you prefer silver or gold trim on the bike?

Ordered paint last night, should be here in a few days.

Dealers choice on the trim, though I suspect silver would look more natural.

Mantis Warrior Tranquility Sniper for Gathering Storm (Brother Zane).

Whale, went with Silver. The bike is 90% done, but I stabbed my finger bad while cutting models off sprue, so temporary hold on the project, Ill let you know when Its done and will post pics

Your dread is modeled (used it for a test bed for liquid green stuff) and the chappy is done, other than the backpack (which I forgot to prime). I'd like to use the dread as a test for some airbrush color tests as well if that's ok with you.

Btemple0 I need to know where your marine should go... send me a PM good sir

Sure. What sort of tests?

Just some color gradients, and maybe another round of osl.

Whale your Bike* is finished!!!! *only bike, multi-melta needs to be painted

Here it is, let me know if so see anything you don't like that I can fix
I am going to say now, I am NOT going to drill the barrels or the boosters. My last attempt at drilling the barrels looked awful, and imho ruined it. And Id be crushed if I ruined the bike, as its the only one I've ever had (aka, no spare parts) and Id feel bad sending it to you like that.Well, here it is








Oh, and I painted you up a little surprise on the bottom
