madscuzzy Posted October 5, 2008 Share Posted October 5, 2008 Honour Guard Some of you might recognize a couple of the guys. Most of them do have magnetic parts so weapons are swappable. These will double as my command squad on foot. http://scuzworks.com/SL40K/WIP/Honourguard/HG1.jpg http://scuzworks.com/SL40K/WIP/Honourguard/HG2.jpg By the way, these 2 are the same guy.

Hubernator Posted October 5, 2008 Share Posted October 5, 2008 Fan-tastic stuff Personal fave is the honour guard unsheathing his sword. That is pure class :D Nice job on those Scuzz. Now let's see some colour on them :P :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Khrangar Posted October 5, 2008 Share Posted October 5, 2008 Wow. They are all amazing. I especially like the mk4 headed lightning claw guy... I want him. Khrangar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Chaplain Posted October 5, 2008 Share Posted October 5, 2008 man scuz, those models look amazing. (I for one love the sternguard sergeant with the fist on the ground, that pose rocks) nice find on the drop pod turbines for super jetpacks-- are those needed for the kit or are they simply for show?

madscuzzy Posted October 5, 2008 Author Share Posted October 5, 2008 Thanx... They be at the bottom, so unless you like flipping the pods to look upskirt, they can serve JPs a lot better... I still have to detail those JPs, so lots of work more for them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlexCrute Posted October 5, 2008 Share Posted October 5, 2008 Jolly fine work Scuz, jolly fine indeed. If I thought my bank balance was unsafe with the release of the stock minis, now that you've done this with them I realise that having money at all will be a thing of the past. *sigh* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drizzt73 Posted October 5, 2008 Share Posted October 5, 2008 nice work and some great ideas. How did you bend the plasticard for the shoulder pads? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Angelfire Posted October 5, 2008 Share Posted October 5, 2008 Highly kick-ass. Is it just me, or does the two-handed swordsman (the painted one) looks like he's having his arm sliced off by the purity seal? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cpt Ultio Posted October 5, 2008 Share Posted October 5, 2008 I think it just looks like that, but I believe the forearm armour is extended to cover the back of the hand as well so the seal is between that and his hand. If his arms were straight it'd look fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

El-Diablo Posted October 5, 2008 Share Posted October 5, 2008 Thoes are awesome Scuzzy. Just one question though, how did you manage to cut off and re-use the metal pads so cleanly? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother Vespasian Posted October 5, 2008 Share Posted October 5, 2008 Wow. I am new to the sight and Space Marines. Don't even have the new codex but wow. How did you sculpt the loin cloths and tabards? I want to have them in the command squad and veterans of my chapter The Crimson Swords and need to know how to sculpt them. Once again wow. Great work can't wait until there painted. Brother Vespasian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

madscuzzy Posted October 5, 2008 Author Share Posted October 5, 2008 The pads were removed with the primary goal of keeping them in one piece. As the marine bodies themselves lack detail, they are easier to sculpt over. I hollow it out to make it a pad using a dremel (cutter). The extensions are made from plastic rod rather than plastic card, with the curve sanded down using a the dremel and a mandrel. All my vets have them, which made it... troublesome to get champ pads. Thankfully I have very good friends willing to part with the pads...:rolleyes: (and the turbines as well) The tabards are made in a similar fashion to the above, although I do them on a flat surface, so yeah, the back is flat. Tutorial. For the vanguard however, the above linky that Cap Ultio provided pretty much covers it. The yellow stuff that you see is Tamiya Quick-Type 2 part epoxy putty. It hardens hard so its good to sand with, and works like GS. It's slightly harder than brown stuff. I build up a lot of the harder body stuff with it.
