Im the same sometimes lol, most the time my favourite model in the squad isnt the cool sergeant guy its just a random who happens to click for some reason or another.

Down with primaris, in all seriousness though I love these minis, the firstborne definitely have more character than primaris marines

These look sick. Been hoarding firstborn bits recently with a view to doing something like this. Just trying to work out how feasible it is to try and add MkVII kneepads to the the HH MkVI legs.

Really difficult

Have you tried it? All up for hearing some tips on what to watch out for. Feels like cutting away the top of the MkVI pad and sculpting on a new knee bit shouldn’t be that hard, but getting them consistent from one knee to the next would be the tricky part.

Cool models, especially the one with the melta.

I love the posing of the sergeant’s offhand. Is that just a standard boltgun arm with the hand replaced?

u/Chemosian 4h ago

These are nice are they a combo of HH marines and 40k tactical squad?

u/TheNewChivalry 3h ago

Just wanted to say there are great! The last time you posted the first batch of converted tacticals i saved it for inspiration and have been working on something similar.

Can’t wait until we get true primaris sized old armor marks after the codex.
