1/6 Space marines.....

ACI or a standard hot toys will do. ACI are much cheaper though, https://www.collectablekitbash.co.uk/aci_toys__nude_figure_set_b.html

the ACI bods are great as they are solid and above all... CHEAP I have used al sorts for mine. If you take the neck off you can push a 10mm styrene tube over the ball joint... and then drill a 10mm hole in the head... I think I have pics one sec.

 

[Dorgmal Snow]

yep pics

you may want to trim the tubs down a wee dram!!!

 

[Crimsonbob]

I still have smurf tac holding mine on atm.

 

[Skiman]

EPIC!!!

I could build this guy!!!!

or not...

 

[Dorgmal Snow]

hhahaah I still have some weathering to do on mine but the first two are nearly done

 

[Skiman]

Snow, ever thought about adding some LED's to the suits or perhaps the power fists?

Hollow out the forearms or perhaps drill the tiny holes out with the LED's placed underneath.

Their super spanky with a side dish of oomph Marky mark

 

[big guy]

Oh oh Oh My! those two look amazing, the Bolter to and thanks in advance for the head to body tip Mark

Got my magnets in the post so got everything, just finishing off the clean up and fill duties then onto the build and Photos

I am thinking of dremelling the helmet out now seeing it is possible. I compared it to the Ani head and wasn`t sure so no harm in trying I guess whilst I have the dremel out eh

Like the idea of Illuminating the eyes Mark (beyond my abilities so jealous here ). Look forward to seeing that done

Quick question one of you maybe able to help with. I`m going Double Power Gloves on mine though with Claws. What would be the best way to make it look cool having the claws attached to the Power firsts? I did think the nuckle circles though then that would affect hand movement (if real) so no. Ideas?

Oh also Mark the Power Hammer, that does fit nicely inside the open hand Power Fist? As said if possible I`d like a Power Hammer Please

Dorg, stop trying to do it in 1/6th and think smaller. you want to do some DKOK and other guardsmen? medicom makes some 1/9th scale figures. look into those for the base bodies. OR look into using the DID children bodies.

Just because it's 12 inches doesn't make it 1/6th. I've got a Figure of Optimus Prime that's a foot tall, is he 1/6th? stop thinking inside that box, and start thinking outside it.

you're GREAT at thinking outside the box usualy. unshackle your mind and get creative with what you CAN get.

 

[Dorgmal Snow]

Yeah you are soooo right man... brain does not work as well as it used to haha...

Well....... rough.... but its an idea!

 

[Tesio]

Wow Dorg! Those are really just amazing! I'm not even a huge Warhammer fan and yet I want them now XD. Amazing amazing work!

 

[Artoo]

Oh you suck! That's the cats pajabers!

WHOAAAAAAA.....

 

[Dorgmal Snow]

ow its all good fun
Ow and Big Guy, if you dremel the helm out and chuff it up (I DID ) no worries I will sort you out with a new helm.... that goes for every one who has armour.... I dont want folks to hold back as they are scared of breaking or twisting of thinning the armour just go for it I will sort any one out with new parts

 

[Dorgmal Snow]

With two basically done except for playing and fiddling with my bits.... humm and staying up LATE TO ADD LIGHTS (i blame Skiman for my tiredness!)

 

[Wanderer]

Oh my Buddha that is outstanding! You keep raising that bar higher and higher and higher...

On the subject of new parts we may or may not have chuffed up (cough) Is there any chance you could cast up a replacement crotch/tummy section front and back? I errr, over trimmed the pieces and they dont reach around Cheers Mark

 

[hemble]

Damn damn impressive work with the eyes Mark that looks mighty impressive.

Ron

 

[Dorgmal Snow]

NO probs Nash... I will get one in the post asap mate...

Moving on the the 3rd marine ... This one will be plain and simple nothing fancy.. a standard Ultra ... I have roughed out his knee markings.... and weathered to top half..
