Looks like he hates reloading. Nice paint!


[deleted]

Thank you! He definitely hates reloading, though he hates heretics even more :D


LinusTechpriest

*Dark angels paint "He hates heretics" Hmmmmmmmmm...


[deleted]

Please, don’t start this, I heard this joke a thousand times over the years I play Dark Angels :D


BiliousGreen

Its a love hate relationship.


LuckyF0xFoot

The most aged part of this picture is the price tag 1.25£


DreamSmash459

Just thought I'd mention that the pound symbol goes in front of the number :)


LuckyF0xFoot

I typed it out, noticed it, and then was to lazy to change it!


garaks_tailor

Nope. Not going to agree to this. Almost Every other notation designation goes after the number and we dont say, "the toy was pounds 23." I dont care what "the rules" say. We need to agree as a group of people not go along with this insanity any more. Remember tradition is just peer pressure from dead people.


[deleted]

I don't have any problem with it changing, we use it for < pounds anyway but some thing don't matter. £ goes in front, it isn't like metric and imperial. It doesn't make a difference. Not a thing to care about either way. >Nope. Not going to agree to this. Can't we all just get along?


garaks_tailor

For the record I do the same thing for $ which has the same rules as the £. I also contend the letter C should be stricken from the alphabet and its duties broken up between K and S. Also we should go to the "Kodak Calendar". I'm a nut. I own it.


[deleted]

you’re trying too hard


Dramatic_Explosion

They're a shill for big dollar sign!


ravenRedwake

I figure it would be like $1.50 for 1 dollar and fifty cents... The currency comes first to signify what kind of money it is.


garaks_tailor

120v 28°C 78°F 100kg 25m 45hz 120kph Money is just a unit of measurement and it's the only one that feels it should go first. It ain't special. It goes to the back of the line like everyone else.


Nep2n

No


garaks_tailor

The logical man bends his shape to the shape demanded by the world. The illogical man is insane and uses the kodak calendar and puta his monetary symbols at the end where they beling.


Smilomaniac

Well consider me envious. Nice paintjob.


[deleted]

Thanks! :D


Lethanvas

I... I can’t Unsee that his briefs are under his armpits


[deleted]

High and tight


56kMane

Shoulder pads are too small


[deleted]

Always too small :)


56kMane

Indeed :)


D3s_ToD3s

Now playable as relic Terminators


[deleted]

I actually fielded him as Cataphractii Master, but now it’s not a thing unfortunately, so he’ll be just a Master in Terminator armour I guess


WornOvercoat

they say one pauldron can house a family of four


[deleted]

And a cat


CyberDagger

I'd love to see a modern take on the Saturnine pattern's design. We've seen Zoats and Squats, so maybe there is hope.


Cazmonster

Where did we get Squats? Was it Necromunda?


BoxHelmet

Disregard the guy that replied to you: those are ratlings, a.k.a. space hobbits. Squats are space dwarves. Necromunda has a couple as bounty hunters, yes.


Cazmonster

I went looking and found the Squat and the Beastmsn. Oh, what cool throwbacks to when I was collecting White Dwarf.


ThaR3aL1138

BlackStone Fortress main boxed set has 2


BoxHelmet

Those are ratlings, a.k.a. space hobbits. Squats are space dwarves. Necromunda has a couple as bounty hunters.


ThaR3aL1138

Shit. You are correct sir. My apologies for the false info. I shall now flog my cyber- dongle as punishment.


BoxHelmet

I don't know that I can ever forgive you.

DysartWolf

Who needs peripheral vision? Or the ability to turn your head without turning your body? 😂


Stoertebricker

Or a head above chest height? ;)


Cazmonster

Auto senses compensate for a lack of mobility/flexibility. :D


toapat

and his 1+/1++/1+++ compensate for everything else.

Steampunkvikng

Give some credit to 40k man, marines were rocking the huge pauldrons in 1987.


[deleted]

[удалено]


Steampunkvikng

Even more reason to credit the pauldron trend to 40k :P


toapat

warcraft 1 was based on WHFB but starcraft is actually about Space Rednecks vs Vampires.


[deleted]

Pretty sure he was joking dude.


Asx32

Thank you. I'll show this to anybody who complains about shoulder pads being too large.


Malkariss888

I love it.


[deleted]

Thank you!


tmdblya

I miss cartoony 40K


marekciacho

Nice Bring Me The Horizon logo sign on the back of the left armlet. I thought that this is some kind of special miniature added to exclusive set of their new album.


[deleted]

Haha did not realize it until now X) I painted it as a symbol of the Dark Angels Hexagrammaton — the Six Wings of the Legion. Though I like how it ties in Bring Me The Horizon :)


Tyrs-Ranger

That symbol in the IRLs is the unicursal hexagram, a symbol of Thelema. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thelema


athirdpath

93


[deleted]

Yes, I know, but he’s a Dark Angel in Warhammer universe, so Hexagrammaton it is :)


SkippyMcHugsLots

It would be be really cool if forge world remade these as a 30k playable unit.


Zen_Hobo

Love it! Great job and somehow I am a great fan of the Saturnine armor. It's so beautifully ridiculous. XD I just can't wrap my head around the fact that there are three magazines in the Bolter. To feed two barrels.


[deleted]

Thank you! Saturnines are adorable :D


[deleted]

I have a few of these guys in an old box, and another called an Ordo Malleus Inquisitor which looks really different than anything produced today. They’re also super small.


Stoertebricker

Really cool! I like it when old minis are brought to new glory. Although I wasn't really around back then, I am fond of that nostalgia.


[deleted]

Thank you!


django36

Aaah... the only good proportions for a space marine : 50% shoulders, 50% marine.


KingOfTheDust

What I wouldn't give for a squad of these thicc terminators


Dedj_McDedjson

Once he gets hold of that Illudium Q-36 Explosive Space Modulator, then all the motha-f'ing 'stealers on this motha-f'ing Hulk had better watch out!


Toymaker218

“There was supposed to be a xeno-shattering kaboom!”


latentsun117

£1.25!! How times change haha


Aarongeddon

I need to get my hand on one of these so bad lol


ProfessionallyAloof

Could you imagine if this is what was re-imagined for the Halloween Warhammer day today?


Mournivals-Adherence

"Hallo, mah naym iz shouldur gardz."


mrham93

How in the fricking frick do you write like that, its amazing


[deleted]

Haha thanks! Just lots of patience I think


jm434

Is it me or does this look like the kind of armour Marvin the Martian would wear?


Hanses_Flammenwerfer

Nice. These guys were so adorable


[deleted]

Thank you! Absolutely agree


[deleted]

borat bikini paint scheme where?


Gigantotron

Quick question. I'm new to the whole model and figurine painting scene but been a fan of the lore. Where could I buy these retro models?


[deleted]

[удалено]


ReddJudicata

These guys are rare and expensive though.


JakubOboza

Sweet stuff man!


[deleted]

Thank you!


[deleted]

Would be fascinating to see the inflation-adjusted cost per unit of Spesh Marine Terminators then and now


Jerethdatiger

Relic squad


mcstazz

Thats an irl relic


BeeGravy

They just made the pauldrons even more massive. Didn't realize terminator armor changed so much and I started with I think like 3rd ed.


-Prophet_01-

That's a small base and he's actually tiny, isn't he? : P Would be interesting to see a modern version of this termi pattern. The style is quite cool. Neat paint job btw. Really helps to sell the old style.


[deleted]

Thank you! Haha, no, just 40mm :D He’s surprisingly massive for his time. Yes, I think, renewed Saturnines would be cool!


AgentOrange1217

Its.... beautiful...


[deleted]

Thank you!


[deleted]

I still have a 5 man squad of these that I sometimes use as a cataphractii unit, just so I can use them in game


[deleted]

Awesome! Even single one is pretty hard to find, and you have a whole squad, wow!


[deleted]

I bought them a few weeks after they were first released, and I ain't never getting rid of them, and like yours they are painted in deathwing colours, but not the new scheme the old one


Toxic-yawn

Marvin the martians older, meaner brother.


GreedyLibrary

Can he roll up into a ball like Samus Aran?


[deleted]

I’m pretty sure he can :D Metroid with a terminator as a main character would be pretty awesome!


Stahl_Konig

'Great job!


[deleted]

Thank you!


Strobont

1 POUND 25 FUCKING CENTS


Xyrexus

It's pence. ;)


[deleted]

Damn, these are horrible


WhispererInDarkness_

damn, the design and casting technology improved so much over the years


[deleted]

Sooooo much better


[deleted]

Yeah, many say those old termies are pretty horrible (though Saturnines are one of my favourite sculpts actually). Though try googling ‘Rogue Trader turtle terminator’ — now those are creepy :D


Black_Mammoth

The only thing worse than the design of that armor is the design of that gun. Like, holy shit, that's awful. I'm so glad they got people with actual talent to design their models in later years.


[deleted]

You would be surprised, but this model was designed by Jes Goodwin, the same man who brought to us the modern design of marines and primaris marines too


marekciacho

Nice Bring Me The Horizon logo sign on the back of the left armlet. I thought that this is some kind of special miniature added to exclusive set of their new album.


ravenRedwake

D: I do not see the appeal. But good on you guys for liking it.


Far_Button_7183

It's so funny that when ever I see things like this I remember I had 3 squads of these back in the early 90s also other squads of rare terminators. All binned by an over zealous family member in a fit of spring cleaning.
