Hi everyone!

First, I apologize for my approximate english and for the bad quality of the pictures, this armor mix is just a concept.

My aim is to create an armor mix based on the Space Marines from the universe Warhammer 40k. For those who don't know what is a Space Marine, I added to this post a picture of one of them.

On the strength of your experience, could you compare and propose ideas to improve this set? Regarding the color scheme, it is modifiable, there are a huge range of color scheme for the Space Marines.

Thank you for it! :)

Oh my god! This look is fun. To keep the original spirit, I suggest you lighten up the dyes to match the backpiece and the gun. If you manage to have an appropriate colorful pallete (think: Overwatch kind) I'll be floored.

Yeah! I would say create some more contrast in your dyes, Try to lighten your blues (or whatever color you pick) and try to match the gold of the original space marine's shoulders. It's such a cool idea, you can make it look amazing with the right dyes!

Maybe try out the Studded Plate boots? those are really wide at the pottom, a bit like the boots used by the Space Marines.

I hesitated between the forgeman greaves and the studded plate boots, the later are effectively in the same vein as the boots of the Space Marines but there is too much peaks, however I keep with idea, as well as the idea of the helmet which could be better.

Have you got an idea for the backpack? It is the biggest I found

I really like this idea, it looks pretty badass, previewed it on my norn guy which is relatively less bulky to mess around with it a bit, and even on him it looked pretty stellar. Changes I'd make for this are putting on a priory helmet [&CmMFAAA=] and priory boots [&Cm8FAAA=], which have a really angular, tech looks to them, and mesh well with the heavy plate legs, despite not having that cankle goodness that you're need to imitate those boots. Also changed the gloves on my preview cause I think the forearms are already hulkin enough on a norn that's that thick, so I put on something that tapered off more in that area and then went big again, a lot of gloves fit that, but I found I really liked Dolyak gloves [&CrgBAAA=].

As far as the backpiece go, there's nothing really perfect for this, most techy backs work, though they're a bit small, the dream would be to have the decorative molten jetpack, but I'm pretty sure we all cry in our sleep from not having that beauty...but I think you shouldn't really focus on it, any backpack ye get will clash a bit with the look and it looks space marine-y without it, cause the secret to lookin like a space marine is just havin the hugest, most hulking shoulderpads, which you do!

Also, don't be afraid of makin it colourful, I previewed it all with the regal dye which is summin like 1 gold on the tp if ye don't have it already and it looked fantastic, but tried it with a solid green and a brick red, also fantastic. You're going to need a good vibroknife for this, I'd suggest the mystic or inquest sword, depending on if you got red or blue, otherwise, keep up the good work, sorry for the long winded post!

Perhaps a backpack that sits higher up, like the 1st stage of the Spinal Blades pack (the basic looking jetpack).
