Here is my newest addition the Mk6 Sternguard Marine,well he has alot of mk6 pieces anyhow.
I went with that theme and used one of my Heresy era backpacks.
I still need to hit a few fine touches and paint on the battle damage.
I tried a new style of white on this helm I like it better than the blueline I think

**OnTheEdge**

Nice one! Like the yellow color. And the white helmet looks just fine like this against the
yellow power armor.

If you have more to show do it

//Edge

**Valkyrie**

Nice colour choice but the area around the studs could use a bit of tidying up.

**mercer**

Nice Fist!

On that model I really don't like the footwear, looks weird.

**esinhorn**

I dubbed him Brother Thonio
I have also started on the next guy,the Melta gunner

I've got to ask, esinhorn - what's that in the middle of the Beakie's forehead? I keep thinking someone has sniped him, and he hasn't quite fallen over yet

**ph34r**

The imperial fist logo looks kinda like a paw because the fingers are rounded. I recommend getting a micron pen or fine detail brush and making it a bit sharper, it'd look really great then. Other than that, looks good.
Obligatory "what colors did you use for the yellow"?

**Ouze**

The yellow looks good. It's certainly a difficult color to work with.

I'd probably laserjet print my own decals for the imperial fists logo. I can't freehand to save my life.

It is a skull in the middle that was a tiny bit miscast.
But you just gave me a great idea what to do with it.
I think he needs a tiny tiny bit more battle paint

Good suggestion with the micro-pen,I may try that.I see the problem finger a touch too high.
That would make a great Wolf company marking though if I added claws to it.
Got to remember that one for when I do Bulveye.

And the yellow is the W.Davies method (Vomit brown base,bleached bone highlights covered with old school GW yellow ink with matt medium.

**jackvolerich**

Nice, very well done the veterans they look very rugged and worn. Keep it up.

**OnTheEdge**

I like the battle damage you added! Cool

Love the studs, love beakies, love your highlights and freehand. Weathering on the scout's armour is pretty nifty, too.

**esinhorn**

Here is Vet Scout Sarge Tobias.
He will be a Tellion stand in when I finsh the squad of scouts in the near future.
