Really one of the most impressive custom projects I've seen. Love the dedication, fun and creativity that went into these

Excellent pictures of wip and final work. Do you have any pictures of the Marines standing next to a normal 1/6 character?

Absolutely badass!!!!
Just when you think some characters cannot be made in 1/6 you get project like this!
Awesome guys.

Uh oh Marc, you may have opened yourself up to a swarm of pm's looking for armor.
So glad you started this though, I can't wait to see what comes of everyone's customs. Great team of guys working on this project!
Hopefully I'll throw my hand into the ring someday.

Re: 1/6 WarHammer 40K Space marines.....

hahahh well Ron has stared one and I know thats gonna totally rock...

katkuru the chest emblem is a brass etch plate from Forge world... I had drawn them up in ai. and was going to laser cut them at work but as I am STILL not back I cant so I had to buy some ...

I will keep piling pics up and fingers crossed folks will start to pop theirs up soon...


The power fist was a key part that made me go oww nurse!!! and when its painted it explodes!!!

I get bummed out taking photos close up as you can see so much more than you can with the naked eye and I always end up going back and retouching stuff...

Re: 40K Space marines.....

But I never go in the Warhammer shops... well only to buy paint... they always ask what I am painting... then go "Ow that's.....interesting" and I leave.... fast....

Me and the girlfriend went into a Games Workshop the other day...Oh dear. 2 steps in and this girl walked up giving us the 3rd degree! I quickly inched back to the door and left my poor girl (who hates my dolly fetish) with this weird woman Classic!

Mark and Stephen, I think you know how much I like this project. I think the magic of it is the collaborative way you guys have gone about this. Equally, much respect for opening this up to the rest of us to share in it all Played guys

My Local GWS acts like females are the last living souls on the earth and my good wife stays outside or very close to me HAHAHAHA

I get the same "Oh what are you doing" questions to Mark. So told them when i was in last week that I`m building a 12" fully articulated BLACK TEMPLAR and wow did I have a few folks pick up interest in that conversation, so now they want me to take it in once done to show em lol
Not sure of that as I`m not as talented as you guys but if it comes off how I envision this beastie, who knows.

Re: 1/6 WarHammer 40K Space marines.....

Hi All

Thanks to Mark for letting me know about this thread cheers mate and here is a Space Marine I started yesterday I spent a good 5 hours on this so far and yes there has been swearing screaming .

I dropped him and broke off the foot pin so the left leg and armour as been superglued together but that doesn't bother me.

Also I warped the cod piece to much and didn't realize it until I had it all together but again no big deal and it's a great learning curve.

It will have both the bald head and the helmet so enjoy and I will have more pics up when I restart him tomorrow arvo.

Re: 1/6 WarHammer 40K Space marines.....

Ahh Ron looking good... If cod piece is a wee bit wonkey then just pop it in some warm water and remould it... if you need a new one then no worries I will send one over mate.
