Did you have to do any trimming or green stuffing to get the head to sit properly? With a neck guard on both the torso and the helmet, I'm finding they interfere with each other and make the head sit awkwardly.

None at all!
The whole mini has a near perfect fit.
I pinned the whole mini with wire and used 2 part epoxy glue, any filling was done by the glue.
cheers and keep on gaming, Agis - https://www.adpublishing.de

2 more painted! ;)

For the Gunner and Squad Leader I chose a slightly different camo colour palette. The green was the base colour this time. As usual, the more you paint minis the more you see flaws are strengths. With these minis - only positive observations, I just love the metal prosthetic left arm.

And a group shot with a Heresy "Hurn":

Really great work.  I really like the look of the Mad Robot Colonial Marines and your paintjobs make them look great.

I finally finished the first half squad.  8)


The Flamer guy and another Pulse rifle trooper are new.



I also added some decals to the unit.

Brilliant pj's!  8) 8)

Would you not rather have German decals on them as opposed to The Stars and Stripes?

Thanks, I chose US flags because they were featured in the A2 movie IIRC.  8)
