barry_hhh Posted June 19, 2015 Share Posted June 19, 2015 Hi all , been meaning to post this all in one place for ages. I had an idea to show small moments in battle in diorama form, all featuring marines either of known chapters or DIY one as i come up with them so far i have finished 2 and working on the 3rd.these miniatures are made to look cool so maybe carrying illegal loadouts. names are yet to be finalized #1 The Hunted. A marine(DIY Chapter) tracks his target http://i278.photobucket.com/albums/kk108/barry_hhh/IMG_1832_1.jpg http://i278.photobucket.com/albums/kk108/barry_hhh/IMG_1835_1.jpg #2 Cornered.Last moments of a UltraMarine during a tyranid invasion. in this photo the marine is missing a should pad , this was just before i attached it i guess. http://i278.photobucket.com/albums/kk108/barry_hhh/photo4.jpg http://i278.photobucket.com/albums/kk108/barry_hhh/photo5.jpg http://i278.photobucket.com/albums/kk108/barry_hhh/photo8.jpg the rest of this looks great but i guess i cant show any xenos pics at all sadly #3 UNTITLED.(everything you see in this one is WIP) A single thunderwolf cav Vs Possesed chaos marine http://i278.photobucket.com/albums/kk108/barry_hhh/photo10.jpg ill do my best to update things as i go , your constructive criticism is very much appreaciated.thanks :EDIT: removed a pic featuring xenos scum Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

barry_hhh Posted June 23, 2015 Author Share Posted June 23, 2015 not a great photo at all but it shows the idea im going for here : the terrain i think will be a daemon world landscape, http://i278.photobucket.com/albums/kk108/barry_hhh/photo16.jpg[/url] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MagicMan Posted June 23, 2015 Share Posted June 23, 2015 Great ideas, man! You can show more of the Tyranid one. I think Xenos are fine if they're in a Diorama with Marines/Battle Shots/For Scale Purposes etc etc. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barry_hhh Posted June 23, 2015 Author Share Posted June 23, 2015 the rules are pretty explicit sorry- (So although the odd trophy on a board-legal mini can be tolerated, things like duels (where the Xenos is a central part of the diorama – even if it’s losing), pictures from battle reports that involve Xenos or even a Titan crushing Xenos under its feet will be edited out ruthlessly)- i would love to post it however , i think its the best looking so far :0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
War Angel Posted June 23, 2015 Share Posted June 23, 2015 No I'm pretty sure they woult be.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MagicMan Posted June 23, 2015 Share Posted June 23, 2015 Well its up to you man, its not like you'd get in ''trouble'' for doing it if it was wrong. I've seen people do it before, and I've personally posted Orks in my plog on here to show scale for terrain pieces, and in battle shots with my marines with no problems.

barry_hhh Posted July 2, 2015 Author Share Posted July 2, 2015 finally an update! this one is mostly finished , i think the metals on the wolf rider need another highlight and his eyes need to be done and thats it. i went with a purple for the terrain cause why not http://i278.photobucket.com/albums/kk108/barry_hhh/photo17.jpg http://i278.photobucket.com/albums/kk108/barry_hhh/photo18.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Canadian_F_H Posted July 2, 2015 Share Posted July 2, 2015 I've always wanted to see somebody recreate the classic image of the emperors champion killing the ork.

Brother-Chaplain Kage Posted July 2, 2015 Share Posted July 2, 2015 the rules are pretty explicit sorry- (So although the odd trophy on a board-legal mini can be tolerated, things like duels (where the Xenos is a central part of the diorama – even if it’s losing), pictures from battle reports that involve Xenos or even a Titan crushing Xenos under its feet will be edited out ruthlessly) He is correct. There was a big to-do over this very subject with Grotsmasha's Duel conversion contest and it was ruled that no xenos duel entries would be allowed. What you can do is post a link offsite where people can see the full thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

barry_hhh Posted July 30, 2015 Author Share Posted July 30, 2015 so while looking through my bits boxes i came across a very old slaneesh steed (i think). my last mini diorama had kind ground to a halt , but this one kinda all came together in one go slaneesh marine with steed... sorry for the focus in couple of them . the steed needs a few things finished , his saddle and his harness need to be fitted and painted , then the leash wire added. apart from that only the base to finish, any ideas on colours? http://i.imgur.com/lerZP04.jpg http://i.imgur.com/cDbnluo.jpghttp://i.imgur.com/rjcH14a.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

barry_hhh Posted August 17, 2015 Author Share Posted August 17, 2015 i have finally tracked down some 2 part clear resin and really want to try it out on some sort of water diorama , anyone know of any fluff pointing to marine fighting in or underwater? seems like there should be some battles underwater since there armour would allow it. Any ideas on a water diorama would be appreciated Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
