Wow!

Incredibly awesome! I'm in love with the proportions you've given the marines, the balance of slimming and bulk that the armor has at this scale. Your art has a perfect balance of realism and fantasy that's difficult to achieve.

You mentioned your friend contacting GW to make sure it was okay and no violation of IP, but did you or would you offer to display your work for them if they were interested?

What harm can it do to find out? It's a question that left bruises down the centuries, even more than "It can't hurt if I only take one" and "It's all right if you only do it standing up." Terry Pratchett, Making Money

"Can a magician kill a man by magic?" Lord Wellington asked Strange. Strange frowned. He seemed to dislike the question. "I suppose a magician might," he admitted, "but a gentleman never could." Susanna Clarke Jonathan Strange & Mr. Norrell

OOOOWWW yes... plenty... Basically a friend Cbob) and I decided a Marine would never happen... so lets build a couple... the bigest decision we had to make was what about scale! 1/6th marine would be about 14 inchs tall... but the re arent many 14 inch bodies nnd they are really expensive... so we built them to fit a 12" figure....
Here are some pics...




I made the chest and shoulder pads... and Cbob sculpted the amazing helmet....



But as you can see the scale was a wee bit out.... but we kept going.... Cbob them made a foot... and the first backpack and a bolter and a chainsword!!! he was really on it

those are really great! Did you just sculpt all the body peices in clay and cast them? or what did you do?

with the basics made the rest was down to me to get cracking on the moulds..... it was then we realised.. the heads just looked way to big... we were gutted...



We found smaller heads worked better.....




Now the project was really coming alive and I decided to remake the backpack....

http://www.1-6th.co.uk/spacemarine/slides/marine144.jpg


I also learnt to shrink moulds... which meant we could use any head we wanted... and also I shrunk the gel to get the scale right....







eventually I remade the bolter made the thighs bigger and the chest armour......

THIS IS AMAZING!!!

Do you take requests? I have one, but I am just asking first.

I wanted to know if you could do a Marine from the Salamanders Chapter.

Also, are those Bionicle parts I see on the Techmarine?

PM me if you want me to draw anything related to Warhmmer 40k. I will put it in my gallery for all to see.

^ I was also curious about if you take requests, but instead of a GW chapter, have it based on my own sceme and have my face as the basis of the model.. is that possible?

These are good enough to make a stop motion movie with.

Some of the best things I have ever seen.

Every Dakkanaught gets a 4+ Pinch of Salt save.
When you suffer a Falling Sky hit, roll a D6 - on a 4+ the hit is ignored as per the Pinch of Salt save. On a 1-3 panic insues - you automatically fail common sense tests for the next 2 weeks and get +7 to your negativity stat. -Praxiss
