I did this with my Emperor's Children army. One of my terminators is standing over a freshly killed raven guard. I mainly did it though because my buddy plays raven guard and I just wanted to mess with him.

That plasma glow on his combi-bolter is really nice, would be cool to see a tutorial for that if you haven't done one already

Imagine an entire army based on dead space marines, all oriented in Yamcha Crater™ pose. That's like -2 to leadership right there

Dead. Spacemarine. Bits. :-)

Could u try doing a fallen conversion that would be interesting

At least we know there's a loyalist on the base.

A little red on the armor and treads on his boot would've been really immersive. But I'm just happy The dark angels are getting some love and hopeful redemption in the current 40k timeline

I play against Imperial Fists a bunch, so most of my army has yellow space marine bits on the bases. It feels like a fun way to subtly taunt my friend when I play against him.

Nice! I've been using similar techniques for my Space Wolves, just replacing some of the smaller rubble with Valhallan Blizzard

Even after watching you for quite a while now it amazes me how beginner friendly your videos are

„A fallen Fallen“ - you know what I like best about your channel, Pete? These subtle moments of humour. Just like when you couldn‘t stop thinking of nasty stuff when building that Slaanesh mini. :)

This was a terrific video! I love customizing bases like this. I use Blue Stuff to make a partial mold and fill with milliput to get battle damaged armor. This leaves me with the original parts still intact.

I read that as "Dead Space" marine. I thought it was going to be a Dead Space themed marine at 1st.

I've just done this for my Farith Redloss model for 30k with a dead Night Lord, it worked great!

Excellent tutorial video and something I’ve done for my iron warriors stepping over some fallen Imperial Fists

Perfect. I'll use this for Cypher

My favourite type of dead body base is the freshly eviscerated enemy base. I first did this on a Crimson Fist model standing over a dead guardsman. This has been a theme for most of my armies with my Death Guard chaos lord being the recent model to receive it. It's a simple technique that gives great results. Simply find a spare torso, rough up the bottom then glue down to your base. Once set take some fine jewelry chain pour on some super glue and pile it on to resemble spilled guts. Painting it pink and covering with blood effect paint brings it to life.

I absolutely love this video! I wanted to have a wounded space marine crawling away before my deff dread squished him so I can use this idea but use the back instead

Excellent! My Word Bearers can now have all the dead smurfs they want!

I would like to add that I did clean a lot from the painting and cork board pieces and I super appreciate you using the proper name for your tools you have no idea how long it's taking me to find out that that is called a "pin vice"

Always enjoy your basing videos, you have such a knack for doing them and with such a grim dark style. Bravo.

Did anyone else wince at Pete “sawing through the ball joint”?

I am just thinking of how I sacrificed a twenty five year old Land Raider that was pretty janky I was given for a base for one of my Tau Riptides. Then again, it can't really hide too well behind cover now, considering it is leaping off of it. Still looks amazing, 42 magnets later. As for rocks, I use rock molds along with some green stuff, I found at a model train store that I occasionally make terrain for.

Amazing base! Funnily enough i've been looking at bases and how to make different types for a few days. Ideas for corpse bases, i thought of a Tyranid Swarmlord, Hive Tyrant or Carnifex standing over the bodies (note, more than one!) of a few Ultramarines. This would reference the very first fight between the two at the Battle of Macragge.

Love the build and base. The only small criticism I have is the sword Az is holding is resting on the ground, however there is no material underneath it. It looks a bit off.

You gotta love those mark 3 marines

Did a similar job with my DA contemptor dreadnought albeit he’s stomping into the fallen’s chest and head

Excellent work as always. Very happy to support you on the Patreon

I really need to step up my basing game, it adds so much to the model when done right!

I first thought this would be a "DEAD SPACE" Theme.

Great tutorial, tho it might be worth thinking about the bottom of mareines boots when they're on show like that, some sculpted tread or something might be an easy but nice detail. A completely smooth bottom really sticks out. Could do in with the a hobby knife/saw/file, or a thin layer of modeling putty with a texture tool pressed over it. Could also just be hidden with dirt and mud for a really quick way of doing it

Looks great. Just a couple things the dead marines eye sockets could use a wash to darken them the look like there part of the armour and the red winged sword of the 1st legion needs to be an the shoulder of the fallen. Now where did a put my Caliban Green.

Since I do not have many bits of space marines, I solved it like this: I used a head and arm and covered them with rubble, basically letting those parts stick out

Anyone else watch all his videos but only do it because you like the videos, not because you’ll actually make the model

Glad you showed us how to make a dead marine for the base. Might do that one day to place a bad one that one of my characters fought

I really like your paint work on this model but I can't help but laugh at those googly eye gun barrels :D They remind me of the Cookie Monster

What a great video. I often use this kind of technique for my World Eater bases.

Ouuuuuuh this gonna be super usefull for my Unforgiven Chapter !! Thanks man. i will slay these Fallens in your name

Great work, makes me want to have this hobby as well Just lacked some blood My dream would be to have the double of an army just so one half was corpses

Good to have a reference video like this, I was hoping to add some ultramarines... to my heretic astartes' bases :)

I've been a big Crimson Fists fan since I started playing 40k and no one does any conversion videos for them aside from your Pedro Kantor video. I'd love to see what you do with them!

Oh WOW, is this basically a simple idea yet, at least I haven't thought of this and I think it's freaking awesome and I just have to say, that you just got yourself a new subscriber 🥳

Your videos are always on point, informative and enjoyable. Thank you Sir.

I’m not sure how I managed to miss 80% of the name of this video, but I definitely went in expecting a dead space -> 40k crossover kitbash haha.

This is a great tutorial. Didn’t know I wanted to do this till now. Thanks

Nice! Definitely doing this with a Night Lord beneath my Ezekiel's feet.

did a corpse base for my IW contemptor dreadnought with 4 IF corpses. didnt have cork so used clay, the base is a bit heavy but I dont care.

I just go into this hobby and this video has helped give me some great ideas thanks

Looks good but i feel the dead marine's foot needed some sculpting on the underside.

would love to see how you would go about making an impaled or crucified corpse from an intercessor

Great job as always. Would love to see you do more basing videos :D

Finally a good Space Marine guide

A great tutorial mate the model looked awesome. Only one suggestion I would make and not as a criticism is on the dead fellas helmet you could of added some dark red to the lenses of his helmet as like you said he's been long dead and the glow from has eyes has long gone out. But once again mate a cracking job on this. 😁👍

Excellent!! I was about to do this, then you release a turtorial for it! thank you! :)

The backround music bangs

great!

I would have, after gluing him to the base, gone in with some watered down brown as a glaze, added some to the feet, to tie him to the base

I wildly misunderstood the tittle, I saw dead space marine, and thought to myself "A conversion to make space marines akin to the ribbed armies from dead space? That sounds pretty cool."

I like it very much, but in my opinion at least when i built a base with a body, i try to put firstly some rocks then i put the body on it or around it, i think its easier because thats how the proces goes in real life, the rocks dont surround the body, but the body falls on the groung.. but if you want to make something what is a little bit longer in the ground then sure why not :) but the paint job excelent :)

I wonder if I could do this with Stormcast? Would love to do it for some Orruk bases.

Awesome base and great tutorial 👍

i love how the calm intro suits a space marine standing on the corpse of his brother (traitor or not)

Dead space marines make me happy!

This is pretty cool, no doubt about it But i'll admit I was dissapointed it wasn't Deadspace marines

Pretty nice!

Could you do some more basing tutorials?

Wow just wow

Nice! Can you do some snowy ice bases? Also, on 40k theories they mentioned an ork demon prince. Maybe a nice conversion idea......

Can you do this for the guard, but with either Tau or Tyranids please?

Only thing better than dead animal bits, dead poster boys bits.

I like the dead space marine base but to me it doesn't scream fallen since it has none of the iconic red and white or checkered patterns.

Can you do a homebrew model of a Frost Suns chapter master they are space Wolf's thousand suns but at like the death watch but have spent hundreds of years in the warp but still loyal to the imperium

Very nice

Awesome video man. Its really nice to see the process, as its something I don't generally do. P.s The saw would mean I'd end up chopping fingers off 😅

awesome!

I was really hoping to hear you say Dead. Space Marine. Bits.

maybe some tutorial sof ancient corpses? maybe some swords, and rust?

Can this method be used for other things like xenos models for a deathwatch/Inquesisition army??

oof... erm.. i don't mean that in a mocking way.. but what happened to the drilled Combi-Plasma barrels at 0:20min ? Isn't it a bit.. too off-centre? :/

Hi Pete! Have you got any tips for doing this with Orks?

Would you have the interest to do a video on how to convert chaos space marine into loyalist? I am planning to convert Abaddon into my loyalist 40k Luna Wolves and I really want some advices.

Please do painting tutorials for Bolt Action Korea

I want to do this but with an adepta sororitas.

I have literally did the same thing last week lol

Damn nice

I play imperial fist and I put necron heads covered in mud as my friend plays necrons. He gets so pissed

Any chance you could do a Primaris Asmodai?

DEAD SPACE MARINE BITS!

Awww, come on! I thought that you've kitbashed things to make Marines from the Dead Space game series ;C sweet job, nonetheless

brilliant !

bros floor is ripped to shreds 💀💀💀💀💀💀

Really nice! But damn the drilling on the gun barrels was unfortunate :(

Let's be honest that's not a Dark Angel Over a Fallen BUT! A Primaris over Everything B4 It.

Time to donate some bags of bits - check your tip jar :)

Completely flat sole on the boot. Ah, so that's how that Fallen died. The Dark Angels didn't kill him, he slipped and broke his neck. Poor sod...

i had a broken toilet bowl as the centerpiece of one of my killa kanz. but demz orks for yuz

what happened to bolt action painting totorials?

Could you do some more Livestreams

For a moment I misread it a Dead Space bases ^^

I see we have moved on from DEAD ANIMAL BITS to DEAD ASTARTES BITS!
