I am digging and digging, but I cannot seem to find some images of, if I recall correctly, some Assault Marines with extended shoulder pads done in a neat way and I believe they had either custom or non-GW jump packs.

If anyone has some shots of these or anything with those items included, I would appreciate it. Going for a custom Chapter that will be utilizing these a bit.

EDIT:
Found them! Scroll down.

Not sure what you're talking about, but it certainly sounds interesting.

I hope someone can find, and post, pictures of what you're after...

Yeah, you've got my curiosity up as well - looking forward to see what you find!

Me too. Are they fully extended or just the rims?

Some clearer idea of just what it is you're looking for would be helpful.

Nice shark mouth on the helmet of that World Eater, but the studs are a little much to me...

Are any of those what you were looking for, MNOP?

Sadly, no. I am still digging for them.

What they were was, I believe, some sort of Assault Marine using the ...Maxmini? Jump Packs. I think. They were heavily modified looking. Also, they had extended shoulder pads that went down to the elbow in an angled fashion.

They were, I believe, unpainted and unprimed. Again, I am still digging! If I find them, I will post them.

FOUND THEM! FINALLY!

They are on the Scuzworks website!

Took me ages to find them, seriously.

Something about how they were done, while simple, just looks awesome to me.

In order to get a pair, I had to "borrow" one from the Space Wolves sprue and the other from the SM Commander sprue. You may have to hit up a bits store to get enough for your Vanguards.

Regarding the pics above, interesting Jump Pack conversion using Drop Pod fans and what appears to be two different sizes of styrene tubing.

Those are lovely conversions with a lot of flavor. I'd stay away from primary color paint schemes though, or they'll look like something FASA should put out.

Wait - Scuzworks webpage? Could you post a link? I tried to find it, but my Google Fu failed me.
