<![CDATA[Latest posts for the thread "[30K/40K] Marines"]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/56.page JForum - http://www.jforum.net [30K/40K] Marines GW games since '94, I thought I'd finally collect and paint a Codex Marine force. I had originally intended to go with a White Panthers colour scheme, as I fell in love with it when I saw it in the back of an old WD.

Long story short, it was too time intensive and has been abandoned.

Step in a new home grown colour scheme, I haven't worked out a name or a chapter symbol as of yet. Never painted Brass or Bronze before (Tyranid Player), so tried this method: Chaos Black undercoat. Base coat of Brass Scorpion. Wash with Agrax Earthshade. Dry brush with Sycorax Bronze. The results are nice, the blue was used to add some contrast. The bases will be painted once I have finished the collection.

Test models, 1st day.

It's very close to looking like the Celestial Lions. All you'd need to do is paint the other pauldron and helmet blue.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/761135/10083004.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/761135/10083004.page GMT First Marines http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/761135/10083339.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/761135/10083339.page GMT First Marines

Hey looking good!

Cheers! The metallic colour comes out a little brighter in the photo, in real life they are quite different to the gold colour of the Celestial Lions. They are however a great chapter, with some nice background.

Look very clean and sharp. I feel they use another accent color. Although the bases might provide that.


Cheers! The bases are going to be done once I have finished the Betrayal at Calth boxset, with a bit of luck they should be finished by next week. The bases will be done in a grey wasteland, I am in two minds on whether to add snow or grass clumps.

The garlish turquoise blue is so good. You just don't see that many lurid colour schemes any more. It's a refreshing change.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/761135/10133531.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/761135/10133531.page GMT
