Custom Space Marine, first of 7

So here is my first Space Marine. Based out of the moon Titan, they often deploy with the Iowa II as ground support. ( they have their own landing vehicle.....it's going to upset some when I post it as it is made from four Mobile Support Vehicles )
Anyway, my Marine Characters wear the LCVS or Lightweight Combat Vacuum Suit, which can be worn in conjunction with the standard military jumpsuits. This way, the crew of the Iowa can suit up in emergencies and equipment is standardized/ interchangeable.
Hope you enjoy!







The last shot shows my newest idea, S.P.L.O.T.C.H. Or,
Suppression Protected Logisitcs/Operations Tactical Communications Hub.
For now, think of him as an electronics jamming suite with M134s as arms. I'll post more detail as he progresses.

Wow that’s incredible and creative custom Space Marine you’ve done. It’s the first of 7, well I’m very much looking foreword to seeing the other six.

Those are some really cool pics...

Fantastic kitbash!

Love the 'MG62 Heavy Machine Gun' which is actually the AVR-30 from the movie 'Avavtar' which by strange coincidence I have coming on a slow boat from China.

I agree with the other guys, that is an amazing bash!

Starring Sigourney Weaver, who was in Aliens, which featured Space Marines.

You have completed the 6 degrees of Space Marines!

You advance to the next level!

HAAAA HA Ha ha ha! You guys crack me up!

That is a fan-freakin'-tastic custom figure! The detail work is incredible! Working LED lights, even!

That cave-like shelter is cool, too! I've been thinking about attempting something along those lines; after seeing this pic, maybe I'll get started on that today!

You absolutely should. That was nothing more than a spur of the moment paper mache build. I took a figure box, cut the back out of it, then pieced it into a larger box. Made a round hole for a piece of scrap PVC. Then it's just flour and water ( I add some Lysol to prevent mold ) and newspaper. I use balloons and cardboard scraps to make bumps and such. It took almost no time and it's a fun prop.

Wow!

Way cool!!!

I love the lighted helmet! I think the thing that really puts your dio's over the top is all the "clutter" filling in the scene. The LP gas containers are very cool.
