Space Marine Scout showcase


Captain Mike

Recommended Posts

First off, my sincere apologies if a thread like this exists. But we have show off your tanks, dreadnoughts, HQ, Sternguard etc... why not scouts. In my, humble, opinion, they are the coolest and most 'characterful' unit in the space marine codex. Normal scout squads, scout bikes and storms can be showed off here.

 

It's all in the title! Show off your scouts.This provides the dual purpouse of showing them off, and also giving me a little inspiration for a 'characterful' squad of scouts I plan to do. Please only comment if you have posted a picture yourself.

 

My (rather poorly painted) scout snipers.

yay i get to show off my "Jungle Camo" scouts, not only have i lost these guys on a board before, my opponents have as well, so when they have sniper shots coming at them and have no idea where my scouts are they claim they totally forgot about me hiding them in the forest cause they blend in so well.

i've been thinking of adding little bits of clump ok flock like the trees we use have so they blend in even better :blink:

Just a note guys -

 

As this is the Hall of Honor we will only be having finished models in this thread. WIP shots or shots that you want feedback on, please start a thread about your paint job. Outside of this, the thread will be treated like the other "showcase" threads.

Heh, the power fist hearkens back to the Rogue Trader days, when marines were daubed with graffiti and belligerent slogans. :(

I love the idea of doing camo except for a shoulder pad, so I'm going to steal it :P

 

I like Marshal's sergeant's underslung bolters, which I've never seen done on a scout before.

 

And Tewligan's IG/Scout/DA head hybrid Scout is brilliant.

 

So yeah, I'm totally stealing ideas for my scout squad.

@Davey80y how did you do the snow?

 

For the snow I use GW modelling snow

 

1 Mix some "snow" with PVA till you get a porridge like constancy

2 Paint it on to the base with an old brush (the thicker you make it the more shape you can give it on the base)

3 Dip it back in the pot of snow while its still wet

4 Clean off the excess with another (dry) old brush

 

hope this helps :-)

Would be nice to see what these look like without the editing on the clothing.

This is from my WIP Storm, i have two, this one has a few changes though...

 

http://i708.photobucket.com/albums/ww87/greatcrusade08/DSCF0006-1.jpg

 

I tore off the cerberus launchers, replacing them with an underlsung heavy flamer and two trimmed down tau missile pods to be the new cerberus launchers.

The scouts have been given shotties and one of then a combi-flamer... i used some IG cadian bits including helmeted heads and a vox caster.

Is there a rule against having normal marines in the storm instead of scouts, because that would make a sweat conversion with out alot of converting.

 

Since you guys have the model already would you say it would be easy to do this? (even if its not legal it would be fun to do)

Wow.... just wow! It has been so long since I was working on these guys that I managed to miss that! I was considering painting the clothes differently, and did a Photoshop test to see what it would look like. (I don't even remember if I repainted them or not!) I didn't notice I had grabbed the wrong pics! My apologies, and here are the actually painted figs...

I like all of these. Although I don't have any of my own to add, I will say one thing - if you paint Salamanders scouts without blotchy half-conventional-African-black-and-half-Salamanders-coal-black skin to represent the geneseed working on them, you're doing it wrong.
