Spacemarine porting spree. - Developers

Woah. That guy's seen things that we wouldn't believe.

[img]http://files.1337upload.net/TheMachineIsStrong-2f4a57.jpg[/img] boop, almost done with these

these look wonderful, glad too see some decent looking iron hands..

alright, to you chosen reskinners reading this: i now have Emperor's Children and Iron Hands, the latter of which includes both pre- and post-Heresy armor desings - the ones that the Iron Hands would use anyway, i left out most of the MK6 and MK4 stuff since they're too prissy-looking for the metalheads i'm planning to do Space Wolves, Ultramarines, Night Lords, Crimson Fists, Black Templars and pre-Heresy Dark Angels myself. the rest will be up to you. the question is, who is going to do which Chapters and Legions? we're going to need all of the original 18 Legions, their post-Heresy versions (where applicable, the Iron Hands skin for example covers both eras) plus a bunch of modern successor Chapters start reserving spots. successor Chapter suggestions are also welcome. when we have enough stuff to do i'll make a list and write it down in a post in this thread. the actual reskinning starts when i'm absolutely sure all the assets work and i've made the models ready

I'd love to do the Knights of Gryphonne (even though there's nearly nothing known about them lore-wise i love orange so they're automatically one of my favourite chapters) Keep up the good work Joazzz and everyone else working on this, i could probably attempt to put together some Inquisition/ Grey knight decorations if you like (no promises but i see no reason i cant get a few props done)

i'm planning to do Grey Knights separately after these are done, along with Dreadnoughts [editline]25th July 2014[/editline] also yeah some of the more obscure Chapters would be good to have

yeah and Badab War stuff in general

[QUOTE=Joazzz;45494797]yeah and Badab War stuff in general[/QUOTE] I'd also recommend iron snakes - got quite a lot of lore, focus on deep water operations, and unlike most marines seem to like lances.

i've decided to take care of the special marines at this point - Apothecaries, Librarians, Techmarines, Chaplains - and here's a preview of the machine-savvy dude [img]http://files.1337upload.net/I_HEAR_THE_MACHINE_SPIRITS_VOICE_A_CHALLENGE_WORTHY_OF_MY_SKILL-4e6bce.jpg[/img] i'll make it so that they all have their own textures in the main "spacemarines" folder that they share, and the pauldrons/kneepads will be in Legion/Chapter colors. if necessary, the armor color schemes (for example, you can have a Techmarine mostly in Chapter colors but with still some of the Martian red left) can be changed by simply editing the VMTs of the special dudes also, the servo arm has been already made. has a ton of joints for maximum articulation - you can even stretch it [img]http://files.1337upload.net/servoarm_wip-d27cf5.jpg[/img] the textures are unfinished and it's too thin in the preview pic, but i've made it much thicker and more sturdy-looking since that

doing Ultramarines and finishing up the Iron Hands [img]http://files.1337upload.net/ultrafag-b1dc94.jpg[/img] also squashing bugs in the textures, sorting files etc

Yo Joazzz you should give up these are waaay better. [t]http://cloud-4.steampowered.com/ugc/572273303513639240/D2055572E0B43698EB1E9ECAA23D6AAC533586D7/[/t]

[QUOTE=RustledJimmys;45506616]I can't wait.[/QUOTE]then i feel sorry for you [editline]26th July 2014[/editline] [QUOTE='Ninja Nub[NOR];45506635']man i don't even like warhammer but these are turning out great[/QUOTE]holy shit thanks

I like how this is actually like a full on, big project. The best I'd say, although I've not been here long so I may of missed something. How long has it been?

How long has it been?[/QUOTE]more than a year at least, i first made crude Heresy-era marines shortly before Wraith started porting and releasing her stuff the project as it currently is was slowly started last uh, March i guess? that's when i started making the Imperator Titan and messing with DoW ports. progress was slow at first but then i got to porting stuff from Space Marine and recently i've been trying to pick up the speed some of the old "heresy" marines, Word Eaters to be specific, can be seen here, as well as my Imperator prototype [t]http://files.1337upload.net/orkslaughter_orig.jpg[/t] picture courtesy of the great Lonefirewarrior

All these models you're making are making me want to learn more about 40k

[QUOTE=wotman;45507411]All these models you're making are making me want to learn more about 40k[/QUOTE]you can start here [url]http://wh40k.lexicanum.com/wiki/Imperium#.U9QEUbEXJy0[/url]

Ultramarines Techmarine [img]http://files.1337upload.net/techmarine2-1dd788.jpg[/img] needs hanging cables between the legs, sockets (on the backpack) for the servo arms - gonna be four total - and the axe and servo arm textures are WiP. i might give the arms some weapon bodygroups too

Why not a mechadendrite?

oh hey you're right, guess i'll have to make that too [editline]27th July 2014[/editline] another test shot. the axe and servo arm textures are now done. added the drill too [img]http://files.1337upload.net/techmarine_pose2-eaa7e9.jpg[/img]

My hype for these can't really be summed into words, but damn, You're pouring in crazy amounts of effort man.

[QUOTE=wingwolf;45516694]You're pouring in crazy amounts of effort man.[/QUOTE]well you know what they say, "a job worth doing is a job worth dying for"

This work you are doing is beyond anything coherent a son of the emperor can put words to, so I'll just say "Easdlkjeaasdfkemdan" Can't wait to down- ahem, [I]retrieve these models for the chapter[/I]

blood ravens in the thread hide your hard drives

Say, I'm just curious (sorry if I'm shitting up the thread) but will there be any focus towards the more obscure chapters? (Emperor's Spears, Masters of Proleus, and Hospitallers are an example.) Or would they need to be third-party?

[QUOTE=Joazzz;45517726]blood ravens in the thread hide your hard drives[/QUOTE] It would be a shame if Blood Ravens was "gifted" a few promo pictures..
