Alright, for an RPG (GURPS) I'm going to be playing as a Space Marine, because my artistry is not up to par I have taken various DoW things and put them together to create...

Skull motif much?

Damn but sometimes it's hard to tell traitor marines from loyal... :P

Looks a bit like a Space Wolf. And the storm bolter on his right gauntlet probably isn't the best idea.

Indeed it is. Stupid Imperium copying the traitor legions.
<_<

Yes it is a Space Wolf. As to the gun on his right arm, you'll notice that the barrels are a bit too small to be a full-blown storm bolter. However there is no way in hell he will be using both the bolter and that gauntlet gun at the same time.

THat guy is kitted out almost as much as the Chapter Master shown in the most recent White Dwarf. I love it. :D

*looks at the view count, looks at the reply count* Oh come on. :P

Anyway, there is more now. First, an image of the Power Axe he carries into battle, once again using shopage.

Image

Secondly, an image of the marine without his helmet on. Drawn by yours truly.

Those are scars on his face, if you can't tell. The one over his left eye is from Bioacid.

That axe is wicked-looking.

Though for the guy, you might want to consider adding a couple service studs over one eye, depending on how long he's been a marine.

if this guys is indeed from the Space Wolf chapter, you might start showing the enlarged canines (Space wolf veterans aren't called long fangs just because it sounded cool)

also the haircut(?) looks wierd and un space marine like.

He's been in service for a little over a century, so would the fangs be noticable then? I wasn't really sure how fast they grew.

As for his hair, well from what I understand the Space Wolves generally have a different hair style then what is normally seen, seeing as they don't really follow the Codex very well.

Err, *looks about* It's under his hair... yeah... I'm not lazy! Just... uhh... *cough*

And now everytime my character charges into battle I'm going to have one of their songs stuck in my head.
