I really like it.
Just some small suggestions: The weathering on the Rhinos is really nice. Why not adapting it to your infantry? Perhaps try out some of GWs new crusted earth effect colour or simply mix it yourself. Looks really nice and would fit perfectly to your army.

Cheers :)

Are you suggesting that I add dirt effects to the marines legs, or did I misunderstand?

Thanks for the comments guys.

@ Commander Sims: Indeed, dirt effects to the infantries legs and perhaps adding more textures to the bases to make them more unique this link is to gws newest technical, but I think you can mix sth. comparable yourself ;)

Hmm clean job, but as a huge CF fan I dont like the blue you have. Should be darker. Also the red blobs on shoulder pads could have used a little more attention :). Otherwise good job

This is how I did my original ones, so I like them. :)

To a certain degree id agree, my 40k CFs are much darker, as a general rule a make my epic minis lighter (as they appear darker a gaming range). I think these pics were taken with a flash, which has brightened them even further. As for the red blobs, I'd just had a disastrous attempt at using decals and rushed the fists.

I'm just working on some converted Predators, I may have to try out GW's Agrellan Earth.

Ooh pics if you do.... I'm thinking of using Agrellan Earth for my speed freeks basing, would love to see how it turns out :)

Also how far it goes.... ie. How many bases can you manage per pot ;)

I should be able to answer your first question soon, as for your second, that may take some time. Maybe someone else can chip in here.

As for my Decals, I've made a few improvements on my tank sized decals along with a workable method for applying them (long story). Short story, I'm happy with the results. So long as I can get my hands on some Agrellan Earth today, I should have pics up tonight, tomorrow latest.

I managed to get my hands on some Agrellan Earth (via online order), it would appear this stuff is flying of the shelves. I like the results and will add this in future to my Marine units. Here are a few pics of my Preds; they have been modified a little, with ablative armour and lots of battle damage.
