  • Metal Space Marine with Meltagun 0808 2 2nd. Edition Games Workshop

    This guy is part number 0808/2 and was one of three special weapons Marines sculpted in the year before 2nd. Edition.

    The 1993 catalogue which shows them says that the miniatures on that page are designed by Jes Goodwin and Normal Swales – not sure if it was a joint effort or whether one did the Devastators also shown and the other the special weapons.

    Says 1992 on the tab!

    This chap is Brother Hamilton in the April 1988 RT3 flyer and Bolter 10 070106/2 in the later catalogues.

    This model appears in the original run of Citadel Combat Cards as Gideon Fax, a Marine Medic in the Mentors chapter.

    1987 on the tab!

  • LE2 Imperial Space Marine – the first Games Workshop Space Marine in 1984

    LE2 was apparently the first Space Marine sculpted in 1984, according to the 1997 catalogue! Other sources give his sculpting date as 1985, however, so I have marked it as Year: Unknown until I find a tab that shows it definitively.

    He turns up in the 1991 Blue catalogue as Bolter 5, part number 070121/42 which is right amongst the C100 marines as far as part numbers go. He’s a Bob Naismith sculpt.

    White Dwarf 93 has an entire squad of just him:

    • Undercoat: Vallejo Mecha Black
    • Blue: Scale75 Art Cobalt Blue
    • Base: Scale75 Red Ochre, drybrushed with a mix of Red Ochre and Honey Moon Yellow, further drybrush with a little bit of The White mixed in
    • Gun: Carbon Black and Kimera’s Orange
