spikyjames Posted September 30, 2013 Share Posted September 30, 2013 Hi everyone, It's been a while since I've posted anything on here but with the new release of marines I'm diving back in to a codex marine army, decided to go with a mixture of some of my favourite colours, white blue and a bit of red and Sons of Guilliman fit the bill quite well. Thought I'd have a crack at Golden Demon this year with the aim of at least making the first cut, really so I could get one of the fancy new medals they were giving out and decided that the new Sternguard kit would be the perfect thing to use. so here they are; http://i32.photobucket.com/albums/d42/spikyjames/Sons%20of%20Guilliman/DSC_0006_edited-1_zpse6473ce3.jpghttp://i32.photobucket.com/albums/d42/spikyjames/Sons%20of%20Guilliman/DSC_0007_edited-1_zps7f332cff.jpghttp://i32.photobucket.com/albums/d42/spikyjames/Sons%20of%20Guilliman/DSC_0008_edited-1_zps6221935a.jpghttp://i32.photobucket.com/albums/d42/spikyjames/Sons%20of%20Guilliman/DSC_0010_edited-1_zps752137b2.jpghttp://i32.photobucket.com/albums/d42/spikyjames/Sons%20of%20Guilliman/DSC_0011_edited-1_zpsd09d9d64.jpghttp://i32.photobucket.com/albums/d42/spikyjames/Sons%20of%20Guilliman/DSC_0012_edited-1_zps987802eb.jpghttp://i32.photobucket.com/albums/d42/spikyjames/Sons%20of%20Guilliman/DSC_0013_edited-1_zpsaf949f57.jpghttp://i32.photobucket.com/albums/d42/spikyjames/Sons%20of%20Guilliman/DSC_0014_edited-1_zpsdbba3014.jpg Luckily I managed to make the cut so achieved my aim :D Over the next few months these guys will be getting a whole load of other units, I'll post them all as the get done. Let me know what you think. James Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

James I'm really sorry james, these guys are really cool and you've done a fantastic job with both the modelling and paintwork but all I can focus is the fact that the Marine in the second-to-last picture appears to have a set of hilarious rabbit teeth.

Firepower Posted September 30, 2013 Share Posted September 30, 2013 Lovely work. I really can't find anything to nit pick...that's awfully mean of you :P If I could reliably paint faces with that degree of success there'd be a lot more foolhardy marines in my armies leaving their helmets at home :teehee: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
That Guy Matt Posted September 30, 2013 Share Posted September 30, 2013 Beautiful. Sons of Guilliman are one of my favourite chapters. I was considering doing them myself at one point. These are great. I'll be keeping an eye for their Brothers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Captain Semper Posted October 1, 2013 Share Posted October 1, 2013 Wow! very nice work there Spikyjames, very clean and oozes character - post more! So, Firepower didn't find anything to nitpick?

Urauloth Posted October 1, 2013 Share Posted October 1, 2013 Damn, these are gorgeous. Congrats on your medal, it's well-deserved! I like everything you've done here but the thing that really jumps out at me is the hazard stripe detailing on the flamer fuel line. That must've been almost painful to do.

Larkyn Posted October 1, 2013 Share Posted October 1, 2013 Sons of Guilliman? More like Sons of . Haha, I'm sorry, I had to. But anyway, they look really good. I for one would NEVER be able to pull off the quartered scheme, despite wanting to try one. My favorite is combat blade dude. Might just be the armor mix though.

Blindhamster Posted October 3, 2013 Share Posted October 3, 2013 lovely marines mate, very clean and crisp and exactly what the judges at golden demon seem to be after.

spikyjames Posted October 16, 2013 Author Share Posted October 16, 2013 Thanks mate. I've been looking at some of the challenges going on at the minute, I'm going to be doing a lot of painting over the next few months, not sure I'd be able to keep up with all the challenges.
