6mm MK5 Legion Tactical Marine (LA)

thingiverse

I'm considering mk5 tactical marines as one of my top marks of power armour. The idea that during the heresy marines used bonding studs to add additional armour plates to their armour to fend off against other marines' weapons is pretty grounded in reality. The five presented here are identical, but I like the concept that mark 5 armour is an amalgamation of other designs produced by forgeworlds to fill the gap, and as a consequence, uses things like bonding studs to hold it together, along with cables on the outside because there wasn't time to properly design it. They just needed armour, so I think it would be neat down the line to make some more versions of this armour. However, I debate that because in 6mm, honestly you can't see half the detail anyway even I wouldn't like too. Down the line, I'll convert these files into truescale versions, which is where most of my modelling experience lies. That's all saved on a computer in Australia atm, so later I'll finish making that. The helmet isn't my own, it's from cornivus who I believe is his name, search rivetgun ik for his bolters are called that his cad stuff is amazing, and his rig of a marine inspired me to do my own for 6mm.
