Since downloading a voice pack from Dawn of War that was posted here by Waffnuffly, I found myself reading up on the whole story behind Warhammer 40k and found myself oddly drawn to it. So much so, that I took it upon myself to try and recreate some of the factions from the WH40K universe through a new skins pack for it.
I started with two factions from the Imperium of Mankind: The Shadow Wolves (rather easy), and the Space Sharks (trickier than expected).
SHADOW WOLVES

SPACE SHARKS (the camo variant)

MY RESULTS
I even managed to create talk textures, so when you or a bot says something while using either of the skins, a respective image will show displaying which of the two you are. The only thing is, I really hate figuring out how to make a new .int file in order to use a custom skin with this model (and I'm not 100% sure it can be done), so I'm replacing files from a stock SpaceMarine texture package with my custom ones. An effective work-around, but it would be nice if I didn't have to overwrite stock files...
This is yet to be finished. I have yet to make the red, blue and green skins (The purple guy is the default skin, while the gold one is, obviously, the gold team skin). I'm trying to find interesting factions to base these skins off of. I think I've found what the red team skin will be drawn from though: A chaos faction dubbed "Skull Takers."

So I decided to make this entire pack skins of Loyalist factions (those who protect humanity). Maybe I'll make another pack based on renegade faction (those who serve Chaos). At any rate, I think this pack came out pretty darn well. Same as before, all talk textures supplied.

Those're very cool.
I once had a mind to skin that model, penguin themed, but never got around to it.

Apparently I was able to make a new selection for this skin without over-writing previous ones. Would appreciate it if anyone out there could give it a run with their version of the Space Marine model, just to make sure it works (did for me!).

Oooo yeah ! more marine skins.
Will check them-out
Have you tried the Predator-based, animated camo skin for the green team in the "spm40kmother" pack?
Any chance of a Blood-Angels skin ?
They are my boys. They like to get up close and personal when they slice you into bits (just like the Skaarj"
BTW. Don't forget the other 40k models
DireAvenger, GeneStealer, Eldar Guardian, WH40KOrk, Wraithguard and WarpSpider (there may be more)

Doc. Flay, if you could direct me to where I might download some of those, I'll gladly consider making a hell of a bunch more skins!
edit: woah! that green camo skin is trippy as hell.

Tell you what. I'll package the folder I have, and upload to my site.
Watch this space....marine
*EDIT*
All the WH40k models and skins I have
https://drive.google.com/folderview?id= ... sp=sharing
And yeah that green camo is trippy as hell.
The author references using the Predator tutorial as his source.
It's such a shame it is set for a team you hardly ever see. Fine for DM obviously.
