Title: USMC ( United Space Marine Corps )
Post by: zrunelord on January 24, 2024, 06:04:53 PM: Here are my USMC ( United Space Marine Corps )
Check out the previous posts.
The flying APC's/Air Taxi ( still have to come up with a suitable name ) are scratchbuilt. laser cut card, coffee pod end bits & 3D printed weapons.
The Spin washing liquid drop pod is also finished ( I did 5 of them + generic decals , though not in pics ).
The mechs are 3d printed and I still need to do the power armour next.
More pics on link

Thanks for your comments.

Post by: Pattus Magnus on January 24, 2024, 06:28:10 PM: Those look brilliant! I’m amazed at what you put together from stuff that would usually go in the trash.
Title: Re: USMC ( United Space Marine Corps )
Post by: War Monkey on January 25, 2024, 05:40:53 AM: Those are great! The paint job works really well, and the Marines insignia is a great touch as well.
Title: Re: USMC ( United Space Marine Corps )
Post by: zrunelord on January 25, 2024, 07:40:33 AM: Thank you both.
Pattus - Most definitely - Save the Planet & Save money ( to buy more minis ;) :D :D)

WM - I have added the USMC insignia for those who might need it. Nothing says space more than Saturn.

Only 10 years ago, nobody could have dreamed that people could lasercut and 3D print their own unique designs at home!

The whole lot looks great though, including the minis and paintjobs; a coherent and recognizeable force. I really like the powerarmoured suits too :)
Title: Re: USMC ( United Space Marine Corps )
Post by: ithoriel on January 25, 2024, 08:45:20 AM: Lovely stuff! I particularly like the "gunship" version and the drop pod.

Post by: eMills on January 25, 2024, 02:14:07 PM: Everything looks great but I especially like the mechs. Did you design them yourself?

Title: Re: USMC ( United Space Marine Corps )
Post by: AKULA on January 25, 2024, 06:50:03 PM: Great looking builds... I do wonder how many troopers slip coming down the ramp and end up being diced by the rotors though ;)

Loving all of this. We see where the power armor troops are from, but where are the APC weapons and mecha from as well?

Post by: zrunelord on January 27, 2024, 06:19:15 AM: Thank you all for all the comments,

Daeothar - yes indeed, nowadays it is so much "easier" to scratch build ( easier in the sense that there are so many more tools ) . The problem is to remember
where one gets all the bits & pieces from ;D

The mechs ( not mine but slightly kitbashed ), among more nice designs are to be found here ) The Ogre .https://www.thingiverse.com/mechaboys/designs (https://www.thingiverse.com/mechaboys/designs)

The troops ( kitbashed with pouches etc, Saw's, ML's & some more poses ) are as indicated here https://cults3d.com/en/3d-model/game/jais-carabinere (https://cults3d.com/en/3d-model/game/jais-carabinere). Very cheap.
I printed them also in 6mm & 10mm. The seated poses are great for mounting in/on vehicles.

Akula - USMC official info states that those are antigrav heat vanes not rotors ;) :D :D. So most probably no one was diced ( That would too ugly to think off & horrible end to a career )

Grimmnar - The apc weapons are from KMFP . If I am not mistaken from this set https://printedwargames.com/shop/product/orbital-knights-battle-walker-suit/ (https://printedwargames.com/shop/product/orbital-knights-battle-walker-suit/)

More will follow

Post by: zrunelord on January 27, 2024, 12:00:11 PM: Grimmnar - To continue,
I was going through the files , look up KMFP Assault Speeders, Heavy Apc's & turrets also they all have heavy weapon sponsons.
Can't remember exactly which ones I used for this build.

The flying APC's/Air Taxi ( still have to come up with a suitable name )

How about:- Box-car, Cab, SMAT (Space Marine Air Taxi), Buggie or Kart. ?

Very nice work by the way.

Post by: zrunelord on February 15, 2024, 01:07:31 PM: Thank you.
Finally decided on what the USMC call the equipment.

Simple names which reflect the affinity they have with them.

The big one ( which can also drop the Power armour ( Big Boys) from low orbit, since they have jump jets) is " Momma".
Troop carrier is called "Auntie" & by association the gunship "Uncle". Jet bikes would be "Flyboys".
