"What do we do Sir!?"

Guardsman Jonah shouted. He was aiming his flamer at an approaching Tyranid, a fierce creature, that had killed all of his squadmates. The ground around him was on fire. "We have to warn the HQ, we should run for it!"
Captain Hogar shook his head. A beheaded Tyranid laid at his feet, his chainsword covered in blood. Human blood. He had been forced to kill several of his friends after they had been wounded by the monsters.

"We won't make it if be both run... You go. I'll distract them."

Jonah's jaw dropped. "What? No, you can't do that!"
"Yes, I can. You run. Run as fast as you can. Get to the HQ. Warn them. And Jonah..."

Jonah turned around and faced his captain, just in time to see him running against the edge of a cliff, preparing to jump.

"NEVER TELL ME THE OOOOOODDS!"

Jonah heard the fizz of a plasma pistol being fired and a chainsword whirring. He knew that although his captain was going down, he was going down in style.

Pictures (FINISHED!)



I'm sorry for the bad photos... I hope you like it.

Wow that's intense. The lighting looks awesome as does the story that goes with it.

Only criticism would be that the captain looks like he is going to do a belly flop right on the side of cliff

Looks great though

Fantastic diorama! I would love to see better photos. I really like the lighting effects. I agree though that the captain is a bit too horizontal, but the angle of the photos is probably making that look worse than it actually is.

WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!! That is FANTASTIC!!!!!!!!!!!!

Good job!!!!! The photos are not bad at all. Just look at mine!

OSL is pretty great.
There are some pretty distinct mold lines in some of the models.
If I were you, I'd try to get more familiar with using greenstuff to alter poses slightly. As mentioned earlier, the captain looks like he's doing a bellyflop. The gold statue doesn't look much like a statue, it should be washed, drybrushed and weathered IMO.
Sorry if I was overly critical, I mean only to offer productive suggestions.
