I wish you luck, you've got a massive project ahead of you!

One thing to watch out for is the legs. On a normal unaugmented human your inner thighs touch when you're standing normally. On a Space Marine, even when wearing an inch thick piece of ceramite armour there's a huge gap there. So you're going to want to A: practice standing with your legs farther apart than normal, and B: make sure any excess bulk on the leg pieces is on the outside.

You might also want to do a sketch where you fit yourself inside the armour just to find out if there are any other little surprises waiting for you.

Working on the shoulder armour.

Very nice! I forgot if you posted but what chapter are you doing?

Dont believe i have. I have over 3k Ultramarines so i was thinking about making an Ultramarines Captain. When i first picked up 40k i always played but never ever saw an ultreamarines army so i made one. It was such a popular chapter that it was unpopular because noone wanted to do it. Everyone loved my ultramarines so i decided that i would try to embody my army by being a captain of the ultramarines.

Almost complete Seal.

Are you going to do everything clean, or battle worn? I like the Purity Seal, I presume you'll adorn it with script?

Definitly battle damage. Dont want a clean look for a captain that has dedicated centuries of service to the emperor. And yes "almost" meant i was going to add script.

Hey to get worn parchment put some lemon juice in it and bake it in the oven for awhile it will make it look worn n dirty.

Hey dakkans. Back from the holiday hiatus and will begin work and posting new pics of the progress. Hope you all had a wonderful holiday and new year.

An update without an update, hinky.

Get to work! Many dakans died to bring us this information.

Wow, cool

You do realize, this thread is 3 months old, and probably dead by now.

Someone needs to talk to WillFrost. He's had a serious stream of thread Necro going.
