Hey again all. First update in a bit.
So, Red, I nailed down today and got your Wulfen done. I had to redo the entire scheme as I mentioned, tests and family got in the way so that's why I delayed so long, not to mention I wanted to sleep on the scheme in case it wasn't quite right. Two days sleeping on it, and yeh it's a go. Here he is then. Sorry for the picture quality and well I guess the model quality. He looks ghastly and shoddy in this picture which I don't think quite does him justice. I also repositioned him as I painted him unassembled and changed his pose. So, I present to you:
Un-based and such as you wished! I also steered away from drybrushing him because technically, he isn't of my Chapter's body, he is of your own. PM me your address and I'll try and get him to you as early as possible. You might be waiting a little though, but I do have to visit a friend for a package soon and I can get him to post it on my behalf. I hope you like him.

I am near complete on all three current trades. Ok one is done but it seems that every time I stop painting and setup the camera shot I get pulled away from the project for several hours and then finally get time for it about 10 minutes before I sleep. So sorry for the lack of progress pictures but it went like this, primer, basecoat, wash, tweeks, gems, and finaly finish coat.
Currently all three bases are bare, so does Graven, Pat or Red have any requests?

Looking very cool! Like the GK helm on the standard termie, btw, gives it almost a contemptor-vibe. Nice. Automatically Appended Next Post: Oh! Basing - urban, or none. I use D-style (WM bases) just cos, but I've ordered some inset ones that I can slot GW bases into for GMS etc.

Yo 1-i I'm in a bit of a sticky wicket at the moment, got no spray paint. I have ordered some however and it should be here next week at some point so when I have the spray paint I'm up for a trade yep. Got your Death Company built anyway so I'm half way there.

hello everyone!
I'm not interested to swap, but have something you might like..
A few days ago I decided to repaint my marines into Deathwatch scheme, but having to paint about 73 different models ad not willing to have any double chapter, I hope you can help me out.
go to my blog(link) and post a picture and the name of your space marine chapter(s) and perhaps some fluff around it if you'd want a special place amongst my ranks..
I hope to get as many reactions as possible(you may suggest several designs) so I can get 73 different chapters in my army!
as of right now, 64 places are still free - on my blog you can see a list of all different models that you can choose from
thanks in advance,
Humey

@Graven, Your Dev is a GK head as well. Not to be lazy on my end but your response to the base sounds like its better off in your hands.
@Crimson, take your time. Last I checked we are all still alive and the world is spinning so I can sit and hold on to this nifty looking marine I painted up for you.

Sure thing then  It's a rather nice and simple scheme on my half but looks preety good, I am slightly messing around with some different colours at the moment though, swapping red for a cold bluem changing this, adding that, so when I get the spray the scheme should be complete and I'll get around to yours.

I would love to do a Swap. I have 2 marine chapters I do.
One is a Blood Angels Successor chapter called the Blood Rogues. The concept is that thechapter is made of of marines who have partially been taken by the blood rage, and too violent for normal deployment, but are too sane for Death Company. They are generally delpoyed on what would be called Suicide Missions, but some always make it back, and fight on.
They are made using Blood Angels and Dark Angels iconography, so they really could be fielded as either. I can make a PW marine, or bolter tactical. or Assault with no JP and a bolt pistol/bolter and a Chainsword or PW
Just to get and idea of the looks, here is one of my honor guard-
I also have a hombrew chapter, just for LOL's, the Space Bros. Joke chapter, poking fun at frat boys and such. If you want one of these marines, touch base and we can discuss loadout/pose. But here is one of my "Fist Bump" Space Bros-
Mug of Beer
Let me know, I think I have 1 set of extra legs, maybe 2, so I could make 1 or 2 to send out into the world.

As a "frat boy" I'm interested in the Space Bro marine, but I haven't done a trade in a long while... In fact I still have one painted from my last trade that fell through. Would you be willing to paint a Space Bro Successor Chapter in trade for the unloved GMS marine I still have? I like the Beer Mug Chapter Icon, but I'd rather have it in my fraternity's colors than in purple and gold (which is oddly my university's colors).... Also, first post in this thread in probably a good 20 pages.

 @Red Skullz: Hey mate. I've made a few adjustments to my overall Chapter scheme so I've updated your model and fixed what I perceived as painting that looked horribly out of place. He is now updated but on a note excuse his shoulder, for some reason it looks far more blue than the armour itself, could be because I just put it on. Here I do present to you, the honoured feral brother Eremeat of the Angels of Punishment, seconded to the Wulfen of the 13th.
I'm working on posting him to you, shouldn't take me long so I'll get back to you when I have more news on the matter.
@1-i: Hey 1-i! Got my spray paint the other morning so progress shall commence on your Death Company marine. I'm going to be spraying him up shortly and them painting him should not take me long, I'm in the mood and have other stuff to do so I am both driven and focused  I am preety sure I didn't mention a possible minie I would like to receive but if you don't mind a suitably epic looking Tactical marine will suffice, that, or a Tactical sergeant (any loudout but something preferabbly plasma for his ranged weapon if it's not too hard to ask). I am using Codex: Dark Angels and such so they're preety vanilla for wargear and of course as the way it is in the colours of your own Chapter if it isn't a bother  . I am attempting to make my 3rd Tactical Squad composed completely of GMS marines so I hope to trade some more.
Also if anybody does not mind I am up for another trade or two. I have some extra pieces from crimbo and such so I'm hopefully good for parts.

@crimson: Very nice mate, VERY!
Other than that, I`m good for some swaps myself since I`m done with the 4 I had at the go. They are going in the mail tomorrow.
I`m after a Possessed and/or Wulfen type of squad that I will play as a count.as Blood Claws in my 13th Wolfwing primarily. Per now I`ve got three marines for that pack and got room for 12 more  Among them I can take 2*flamers, 1* plasma pistol and 1* powerfist.
What can I swap you say? Well my "patented" heavily weathered, riding the storm 13th Company Space Wolves  Check link in sig for army plog.

@Lord Osms and Crimsonfist
I had surprising difficulties with the buitd of these two. It took me forever to find a sword arm with an angel that I liked and even now Im not 100% on my choice, more like95% ok with it. On the hammer, well again the angel is not what I had envisioned but after repositioning the actuall hammer I happy with the result.

Hey all.
Was wandering through my mini case today and I happened upon an old Mk-VII librarian with jump pack that I'd painted years ago. I'd already spruced him up once & just got done doing so again. He may night be quite up to my current standard, but he's not far off. By far it's the best power axe I've ever done, that's one thing for certain. As a Mk-VII marine however... I just can't use him. He doesn't fit into either my Badab era or post-crusade army. But, he looks good & is a tried and true veteran of many an armed conflict so it seems a shame to let him languish in a box.
So, if anyone's interesting it doing a trade for him. Please shoot me a PM. Here's the latest pic.
