Anybody who knows me well will probably frown a little at this picture for it is very well known that I.......Don't really like Space Marines.

Sure they look cool and they have neat weapons and vehicles but IMO the average space Marine has as much personality as a refrigerator (Emperor protects this, Emperor protects that) Gimme Tau or Orks any day at least those guys are allowed to have some fun XD

So why did I paint these? Heck I had a few squads lying around collecting dust, might as well try the new paint sets on these. I choose the Salamander chapter cause I always kinda liked those color schemes and you don't see them as much as other chapters. Expect to see more in the upcoming weeks.

Note: Before anybody has to point out, YES I KNOW that Salamanders supposed to have coal black skin and flaming red eyes, I decided not to do that because it looks incredibly stupid.

So, you know about Salamanders' mutation causing their skin to be black and you ignore it? It is not an ignorance then, it is heresy. Besides that, they're nicely painted, too bright for me, but it's your army (nananananananananananana Captain Obvious!).
And it's not stupid if it's canon.
Okay, C.S. Goto and his multilasers EVERY-FUCKING-WHERE may be an exception, but beside that - it's not.

Not all Salamanders will have that skin. The Chapter recruits from different worlds so you will different skin tones.

Great job on your Marines. I know how you feel about them but hey...some of them think outside the box...then they become renegades lol

Glad to see someone agrees, heh not going on the renegade tour with them but I prefer marines who are capable to be more flexible instead of following a stark and stale dogma XD

Thanks again!

Wow, they look so clean and crisp. And like everyone else is saying, those highlights are quite impressive.

Thank you very much Nims <3

Yeah despite that they are boring space monkeys in power armor, I am most pleased with the results ^^
