Baby steps. Beautiful, glamorous baby steps.

The Pretty Marines, much maligned by most average players who have heard of them. They excel in subterfuge, parades, and flower arangement. Clad in flawless purple armor, and mysteriously good looks, they bring forth a beautiful monsoon against the heretic, the mutant, the alien.

For those who haven't heard of them, they were a joke chapter created... well, as a joke. Along with their rival chapter, the Angry Marines.

Since starting 40K I have always avoided Space Marines. Any other army I'd play and have purchased at least one unit for. But I've recently begun a project that has been more exciting than any I've had in a while. A bit of boredom one night led to me deciding that I wanted to give Deathwing a try.

But I could not be content just playing Dark Angels.

I have been a fan of the Pretty Marines since hearing the jokes involving them, and seeing Jaekyu's pictures, such as the one above. I sat around and came up with some ideas and before the night was done, Glamourwing was born.

In it's current planned state, it will be an all-infantry Deathwing army. 5 squads of shooting termi's, 2 of lightning claw laden assault termi's, a Librarian and of course my Belial equivilant. Eventually I may add on a few Land Raider's and/or Dreadnoughts.

Everything in the army is starting off as an Assault on Black Reach terminator. Some scraping around Ebay has yielded everything I need to convert the weapons, and a tube of greenstuff is providing all of my Pretty Marines iconography.

The first three squads of shooting terminators are already done, and I'm off to work on the first of the assault squads.

Ignore the print on the front of one of the sergeants bases. Touched it while it was tacky and forgot to fix it before getting the pictures.
