The Ghost Chapter
« on: March 24, 2019, 12:40:05 AM »
I've finally finished the first stage of my Space Marine project.

Captain Honorius with his bodyguard (Squad 1).



The rest of the bodyguard plus a communications module / objective marker.



Dreadnought with Terminator assault troops.



Rear of Dreadnought.



Rest of Terminator squad.



Squad 2, armed with Missile Launcher.



Squad 3, armed with Flamer.



Squad 4, also armed with Flamer.



Squad 5, armed with Missile Launcher.



And last not least, a pair of Scout bikes painted by a mate.



This completes the first platoon of what will ultimately be a company comprising a second Space Marine platoon and a Heavy Weapons / Support platoon.

They're very nice - the weathering and alien tufts are a nice touch.

Based on your other thread, looking forward to the Predator being painted too.

Nice. I did wonder if you were going to go for a Mk6 chapter.

Thanks for your feedback.   My usual focus is on WW2 modelling and gaming but sci fi has become a relaxing alternative to the "rivet counting" / ultra-realism of the latter.

Just need to reach a landing on rules.

Cheers

Great work! 8)

The colour scheme looks good, and really fits with their chapter name, and is nice and consistent throughout the army.

And it's very nice to see someone is still having fun with those often overlooked plastics. Battle for Macragge, right?

It might be nostalgia, but I still find it oddly satisfying and pleasing to see the 'small' marines of yore painted up... :)
Miniatures you say? Well I too, like to live dangerously...
