I was in my local GW store today, talking with some other games, and in the conversation it was mentioned that every 40K player has painted an Ultramarine, or at least an other Space Marine. I contested this as I have not. And now am wondering how many people have or have not painted a Space Marine model.

And to all those wondering, there is not intended as hate for Space Marines, just a simple curiosity.

**Honersstodnt**

yes. Aurora Chapter, 5th, 6th, and 7th companies.

**H.B.M.C.**

Space Marine h8 is so fresh and fun and original.

I have an Ultramarine, many Chaos Marine, a Black Templar and a Deathwatch army.

**Kilkrazy**

My original first edition Beakies.

**Talizvar**

Did Chaos first to be honest, noise marines to be precise.

Black Templar for loyalists.

Gray Knights as second.

Never painted an ultramarine, not once. Not even curious about it.

**Inquisitor Lord Bane**

Chaos, then Templar, then Grey Knight, then Crimson Fist, then Salamanders, and now possibly Space Wolves. Never did a smurf though, and its not on my to do list.

**lord17c**

I started an Ultra marine army in the last edition of the SM codex. They were cool and had the tyranid hunters. then they went and took those guys away. I lost interest in them after that.

**The Dreadnote**

My first army was ultramarines <3

**Ed_Bodger**

I am just about to paint an Imperial Fist being crucified to the front of an Iron Warrios Khorne Rhino.

As a smurfs and puppies player yes I have.

**Norsehawk**

I have painted as far as Marines:

Dark Angels (and Deathwing)
Black Templars (test fig)
Blood Angels
Flesh Tearers
Black Legion (commission)
World Eaters
Iron Warriors
Word Bearers (fav chaos legion)
Death Guard
Pre-Heresy World Eaters
Angels of whatever (the ones that were half bone half green from the DA codex)
Space Wolves
Grey Knights

I paint lots of marines and lots of everything else

I've even thought of making my own copy of the space marine chapters poster using actual miniatures as a challenge and to promote my painting service a bit

**Gorechild**

I've painted one Blood raven I made out of my mates spare parts and begrudgingly basecoated like 20 ultras for my mate who is too lazy to do anything more than glue men together.

**Tim the Biovore**

Many paint schemes with my AoBR Marines.

**Space_Potato**

I have painted a single Dark Angel. No more, no less.

**Brother Heinrich**

Space wolves, Imperial Fists, and one dead ultramarine pinned to the front of a friends chaos rhino

**Anpu42**

I have one Ultramarine Mini. I took the I dea from the origianl 40k/Rouge Traider/White Dwarf Compendium about a suit of Terminator Armor on loan. So I have one Ultramarine Terminator Sargent in the middle of all of my Space Wolves and no one has seemed to ever noticed.

**wuestenfux**

Yes, DA and BA models, but never Ultramarines (blue).

**Nightwatch**

Yes, Nightwatch chapter (before GW thought of it!) but NEVER smurfs.

**Kroothawk**

Yes, a starter set for the store, but none for myself, none

Well, a head or two for the Space Hulk Genestealer bases maybe

I might do some converted Nurgle Marines in the future though. As they are a challenge.

**Mr. Burning**

Smurfs
Wolves
BA
DA
Black Legion and and my own renegades.

And I would paint them all again I tells ya!

**Havoc13**

Blood Angels 2nd company 100+ models
Black Templars 100+ Models
Dark angels 25+ models
Death Guard 50+ models

Sold them all and do not play marines anymore.

**kronk**

**Dracos**

Sangfroid Chapter (homebrew).

**MenOfTanith**

Marauders

**yournamehere**

I made a small 1000 pt. ultramarine force for 2 reasons, first is a friend ever wants to play I have something he can test the game out with. Second and say what you will I like the ultramarine paint scheme, and so always wanted to paint some. At least it looks good when done right.

**JSK-Fox**

I did paint an ultramarine dude, but I primarily paint my own chapter.

**Xca|iber**

I've done Black Templars and my Templars variant, the Steel Templars.

Edit: Oh and I've done a Chaos version of my templars too.

**SPARKEYG**

I've painted Ultramarines, 1st, 3rd, 6th, and 10th Companys.

**Tyranid Horde**

I've painted 5 Ultramarines (I have a soft spot for them), Sons Of Ignatius(homebrew) and finally Black Templars.

EDIT: Also a Blood Angel torn in half for my friend's Nids. (looks epic)

**1hadhq**

Just 1 ultra - part of the assembled group of marines in their chapter/Legions paintschemes. ( 18 +x models ).
Plus a few other marines:

- DIY, DIY (ws), DIY (traits)
- DA, BT, IH, RG, SW, Sa, GK, DW, LotD
- BA (wip)

So lots of green and black marines, some Grey and brown and purple Marines. Red marines WIP.

Seems blue isn't my color.

**warpcrafter**

40+ Plague Marines, 50+ Khornate Marines, 40+ Black Legion. Never again.
