Yes it looks totally daft but it is iconic in a way.

That sums up the whole retro/oldhammer/whatever movement right there I think!

Looks good too!

Yes daft is best!

Probably my favorite trooper figure from the old marines is this Brother Reeves mini. Lucky I got 3 in a joblot! I've converted one into a female marine by doing a head swap with a female mini from ERM. Will paint the parts separately and glue when finished.

Some painted minis for a change. Here are the completed yellow/white marine and the hobbit sniper from earlier in the thread. Also an slightly converted Ork warboss WIP.

cheers

Excellent work

That ork is one of my favourite ork models.

Very, very nice.

That yellow came out great!

The female marine is top notch too. Much better than the pair of skinny bints they released back in the day.

That yellow and white marine is the nuts

Thanks for the comments!

Took a pic of this fellow today. The body was originally a medic which I didn't care for much. Now for a while I'd wanted to put a different style of helmet on a power armour body thought I'd give it a go on this figure. Once I'd made the new helmet I decided not to glue it until I'd made a mould so I could cast it in resin. Will give me extras to play with and some for anyone else who may be interested!
