Hi all, yet another of my doomed army projects. I chose a nice bright (sorry L-4) colour for this as yet unnamed chapter which I am currently referring to as Orange Drops. The reason can be seen below:  How do they manage to fold those specialised drop pods? Easy. One of their chapter traits is 'Masters of Origami'. They also use this to get 10 marines in a Rhino....  |

I like the pods & orange is the best color. Orange is great camo if you are in some iron oxide waste or just surrounded by fruit. CLEANSE, BURN, JUICE!!! |

You don't have any remorse for the sacrifice of this control tower, do you?

Sound medicinal. I had orange fruit drops in mind  Orthopedic Marines? No, those would be the ones with the hospital-green robes. Orange is great camo if you are in some iron oxide waste or just surrounded by fruit. Ah, I KNEW I might just end up getting it right  Thanks Ghudra.You don't have any remorse for the sacrifice of this control tower, do you? I'll give you 3 guesses It is now a forward control outpost. Or like the name of a cocktail. Now we're getting somewhere

Nice modeling as usual Van ...  And I guess Orange might work in on a planet with a lot of Iron Oxide ... Or in a Florida Orange Grove ...

Something fire-esk maybe? Firestorms Solar guard Flames of Purity Firemasters (though could be confused with the traitor titan legion) |

Quote: (Hena @ 17 Aug. 2009, 07:43 ) Hey, I'd forgotten all about those! Are they still expanding, Charad? Good grief, hand-painted chapter emblem... ouch! Ok, mine are very much the junior chapter....they're probably derived from their geneseed...or have chapters stopped breeding? I haven't kept up with the fluff.... Thanks for all the name suggestions guys - I still am completely undecided. I had a couple of ideas of my own: Non-Starters - seeing my projects usually all end up this way Blue Pandas - that should certainly confuse the enemy! Why orange? As Charad pointed out it's easy to paint and fun too -makes a change. But there is another overriding reason for its use. I had bought the 20-pot Foundation paint set, and this is one of the 2 least-used pots - which means if I do goon with these, I should keep going for some time. I am also painting a few orange 40K Dark Eldar who are too embarrassed to have their photo taken... Do we have a sponsor? PS - hey, they match the Tac Wargames colours brilliantly too  |
