all i can say is... it's 1:00 in the morning, i come to a forum of grimdarkness, and look upon this..... It's oddly refreshing. I hate it. I hate it with such passion; yet I can't stop looking, and thinking how amazingly well done that is.

**Sha1emade**

You painting is very very good! I love that you chose an army that will cause major reactions to everyone that sees it! Not offensive, yet still painful to look at. Yet, you must stare at the artistic skill put into it. Makes the brain melt. What I would not give to take this to a RTT and have all soft scores maxed out by default!!! Genius. There is a fine line between genius and insanity, so a famous dead guy once said. The line with this army is definitely not straight. Take that as you will.

**Dakka_Dok**

It's a definite win if you ask me, lovely paintjob.
Though if facing these guys in battle I wouldn't be sure what would kill me first; their guns or laughter.

**Imperial Monkey**

I am slightly disturbed as to where your inspiration came from, is there some army in history that has marched to war under the banner of Hearts? And more to the point did they win? Or get crushed/heartbroken!! (Oh I am funny!)

**Imperial Monkey**

But on a serious note they are very cleanly painted.

**Blightdrone**

Wow. Just wow.

Cheers,

Jack.

I can't believe so many people don't know about the Pretty Marines.

**Master Llyons**

lol when i first saw them i thought it was Emperor's Children marines

**Tyron**

Saw these on ebay they reminded me of Dr.Thunder.

**Afrikan Blonde**

Ewwwwww! Dr. Thunder.... Please.

**GMMStudios**

Hehe but Doc Thunder gives them a sex change, I dont think he has painted any pink has he

I agree.

They look great, now the Angry Marines just need to come and beat the snot out of them.

**Sidstyler**

Oddly enough I had no idea there were Chaos Pretty Marines until I linked people to 1d4chan and saw it in the article. For some reason I now feel inspired to make a squad of my own.

**Dal'yth Dude**

I'm guessing the vehicles were airbrushed. Did you use a glaze technique on the infantry?

If it wasn't for the hearts, I'd quickly snap these up.

One other touch I found funny was the plasma gunner was afraid of his gun getting hot, but the cannon carrier wasn't bothered in the least.

**Steelmage99**

They are certainly.....and with an ever so subtle hint of....
The.....is....well, there.

**Corpsesarefun**

I love this army yet the heads are pretty unsuited

how can the pretty marines have such angry faces.

**Sidstyler**

Because Games Workshop don't make very many anime pretty-boy Marine heads and sculpting is hard.

**GMMStudios**

Yeah they are the most unmanly heads GW makes. Also everyone hates them when used on the original kit partially because they look funky on the archers and partially because they are so feminine looking.

**artyboy**

Brilliant. If I had an extra grand lying around I'd snatch them up in a heartbeat.

**BlueGiant**

I am reminded of the line from the Dirty Dozen: "They're pretty, but can they fight?"

They look great and have made me grin wildly. I like!

**Simonbarsinistr**

This is great, brings a lot of levity to the table. Well painted and converted as well, which is to be expected of gmm!

**starbomber109**

I both love and hate this army, but it would be awesome to play against them for shear comedy value,

Great job painting them!

**Canonness Rory**

Honestly, the microphone on your chapter master/captain looks terrible. The rest is absolutely amazing but that microphone looks like you just rolled up some paper real thin and stuck a blob of greenstuff to the top, and then painted the greenstuff black.

**Afrikan Blonde**

They remind me of Torscah's Ghina Marines.

No they can't actually.

**CT GAMER**

Well painted and converted.

Sadly it is more proof that Anime can and will infect and destroy everything if given the chance...

Better to dust off and nuke this army from orbit. It's the only way to be sure...

Agreed. They are well done. As for the nuke, just let the Angry Marines know where they are and all will be taken care of.

**Twalks**

HERESY!

**lord_blackfang**

Holy... you did this in under two weeks? I really need to get my ass in gear.

**Tzarinchilla**

Firstly I just have to comment on how well converted and painted they are. It really is a pleasure to see such a well painted and assembled force.

Secondly.... OMG its wrong. If I was an opponent in a game I wouldnt know where to look. Even my Tyranids would find it hard to run towards a pink army of space marines, it just isnt right. GOOD JOB! Psychological warfare FTW.
