So whats this guy doing then

[Brokenblade]

I saw this model in the metal about a month ago and am still bemused as to what hes doing,

and i\'ve come to three conclusions:

• He\'s cheering in battle fom some kind of victory
• He\'s doing the Y.M.C.A
• The scupters thought they\'d have a laugh

To be fair it\'s still not a bad model, i really don\'t like the pose, but it\'s ok in generall and since it\'s a games day model i\'ll probably still end up buying 1, or 2, or 3....

anyway, is this actually a good model or am i just being way to picky here, i\'m sure they could have come up with something better for gamesday ???

 

[Wolf_Fang]

i choose option number 2

 

[Broke n English]

Y.M.C.A\'hey.......that\'s all I know!

 

[WurzagUdUraZahuba]

at least he isn\'t aimlessly pointing at something like every other marine with a power fist. I quite like that model actually.

 

[airhead]

\"Yea team. Go team, go...\"

 

[No Such Agency]

\"YMCA\"?

Well, Space Marines... a bunch of macho, muscular men, living and working together constantly... virtually no contact with women...

Yeah I can see it.

Studded armour pieces and chainmail...

...it\'s all there baby! The Marines are on the turn!

*Edit*--Bionic eye for the straight guy!

 

[Naukhel]

He could also be shouting at his enemies... or possibly about to lift that middle finger at them? (Wouldn\'t that be an amusing conversion?)
Or, if he\'s british, the two-fingered salute...

Raise your hand! Raise your hand if you\'re Sure! Space Marines need very strong underarm deodorant.

 

[Wolf_Fang]

wouldnt they just have some kind of air-freshener or something that sprays their armpits? i meen comeon... its the yr 40 000

I have to check my Index Astartes for that particular organ implant. The oolitic right Guard dispenser maybe....Strong enough for a space marine but made for a woman.

Go Shawn.....go Shawn......lol He looks a bit like Steve from Jerry Springer......Steeeeve! Haven\'t seen Jerry in years,imagine a gay space marine ruck on there,Steve\'d be screwed!! lol

 

[MarkusTay]

I personally like Naukhel\'s idea -

Hey Shawn, how\'d ya change the suit color? I haven\'t figured that one out yet. That would be a great way to test color schemes. ???

@MarkusTay
It was a real simple Photoshop trick. It\'s late here, I\'ll elaborate tomorrow.

I think some pom poms instead of the bolter and put a little skirt on it and you got yourself one hell of a cheerleader. lol

My previous \"lets have him waving something\" thread is here

It seems the curse is now spreading to space marines too!

\"Right now we need to think of the pose for this next mini. Any suggestions?\"

(All GW sculptors in unison) \"LETS HAVE HIM WAVING SOMETHING\"

 

[Drake Farstrider]

@ ilynx2k4 Hey don\'t stomp on the GW trademark. I think that it must be in the sculpters contract to have all models waving something. lollollol

Imagine the scene....

Brother \'kiss-my-arse\' battle brother to the Shit-Kicker chapter of marines runs up to his chaplain.

\"boss boss, Ive caught a bee in my powerfist! If you listen carefully you can hear it buzzing\"

Chaplain Shit bag replies \" You really are an idiot Kiss-My-Arse! Now go and do some smitting damn it!\"

Strange as it may sound I can imagine this. I can also picture the look on Brother \'kiss-my-arse\' face, he is devistated and runs off to cry in a corner.
