This is the first model for a 5 man True Scale Ultramarine Kill Team. It was my first time using Brown Kneadatite, and I fell in love with it. Much better than Green Stuff if you ask me. I won't proclaim to be a great sculptor or anything, but here is my
WIP for an Ultramarine Kill Team.
I found the basic Ultramarine scheme to be very dull, until I saw one of the Rhinos in the Codex using a blue/grey scheme for an Ultramarine Rhino. That hit a cord, and so I've used the following scheme inspired by it for my Kill Team. The arms, beakie helmet, torso, and legs are all kneadatite over a the basic model, so given my limited skill there are some visible flaws in this that I'll correct for my Seargent Peleus who is next on the block (with a Halo/Helicopter Pilot inspired helmet).

It's hard to see, but I have added some fine weathering up the legs, and I plan to put them on a sort of urban base. The grip on the
HB, the feed, and the hand holding the grip need some work, but I feel like he feels a bit naked and needs some 'artwork'. I had thought I would design them so they could be mostly eraless (i.e. no defined helmets of chest plates on them), so that I can run them as Pre, During, Post, or Current Ultramarines. Any suggestions?
The "smaller" marines are some Rogue Trader Era repaints I've finished for my Black Sheep Squadron marines.
