<![CDATA[Latest posts for the thread "Space Marine conversion prototype"]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/8.page JForum - http://www.jforum.net Space Marine conversion prototype
So yesterday I was bored and finally came up with a way to do an idea I had gotten a while ago. Space Marines have become common in real life (surprisingly new news huh ). There seems to be enough of them that they could even be considered a type of cannon fodder. Then I rememebered how ages ago I wanted to make a Zaku army, something to make the Space Marines a bit better. Then I just grabbed a bunch of spare parts and one of my marines I use to test out colour schemes and started putting it together. Like the title says this is only a prototype, after seeing how easy it was to throw together I'm considering finaly making that Zeon Space Marine army. As this is a prototype the design isn't final and the painting was rushed to allow the various parts of the conversion to be seen a little easier. A few parts of the design need a little work so comments and criticism are welcome.

I'm considering the Black Templar's codex simply because it's kind of hard to find a character to match with Char and the Emperor's Champion seems like a good match. But, if you have any codex suggestions they will be great as well. Thanks in advance

I know it is a prototype mini so don't mean to sound to over critical.

Thanks for the comments so far

Edit: Yeah the Tau seem that way to me as well, but I wanted to get some decent CC into it as well
I've tried them, but I just never liked their playstyle. I might give them another try sometime later. Ironically I just sold my Tau army today.

The problem is that I play nearly every game in a GW so I'l have to be creative and convert some GW vehicles to try to match the style of them. So many thngs to go through, I might leave this one for a while and see what ideas I come up with. If it doesn't work out I guess I could try to do just one, but for an Ork army ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/274256/1257226.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/274256/1257226.page GMT Space Marine conversion prototype

Problem is though as it was a colour scheme test model it has about 3-4 different colour schemes under it's current rushed one.

Nice ideas Fafnir ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/274256/1259084.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/274256/1259084.page GMT Space Marine conversion prototype http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/274256/1259540.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/274256/1259540.page GMT Space Marine conversion prototype http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/274256/1259562.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/274256/1259562.page GMT Space Marine conversion prototype
