Sure, I shall throw my hat in as well. I have some Space Marine sniper scouts that I have converted up that I have been meaning to paint...

You say that I am crazy. I say that you are right!

Hutber and commissarbob added to the OP.

Schylne, that's fine! Still a Space Marine as Grim points out, and a pretty unique at that!

Here's my proof pic. Not that you can see anything due to a comination of mobile phone camera and indoor lighting, but it proves the model exists, which is the point. A Wolf Lord from AoBR, with sculpted fur pelt, a Power Axe from the TWC set and a Storm Shield from the SW Termies.

OP updated with (I think) everyone and all Proof Pics copied over. I won't be copying every pic to the OP, but collecting the Proof and Final pics there saves a heck of a lot of time when it comes to setting up a voting thread!

If I've missed you or your pic, let me know and I'll add it.

Awesome, welcome to the forums! I look forward to seeing your work!

Indeed, I think there's going to be a lot of very different stuff here, covering so much more than just the archetypal Space Marine! A chance to show that even possibly the most ubiquitious model type in wargaming can inspire so much creativity! Already we have Space Marines of all ranks, live ones, dead ones, not-quite-dead ones, non-superhuman ones, bikes, jetbikes! And it's only day 2! Anyone fancy throwing in some TDA, I don't think we've had any (non-dead) Termies entered yet?

@SlaveToDarkness: Yep, sounds fine! I'll add you to the OP.

@Cam: If you find yourself with the urge to knock out a Marine over the next month then you can enter right up to the last day, so feel free to drop in if you do find the time!

Should be... easier? Just.. more?

That sword. Is ridiculously epic. Like... ridiculously so.

I think I like it.
