Okay If you have ever seen ultramarines this is was my result. This is pretty fresh moc and looks just like what’s it meant to be a bulky soldier. This one has pretty interesting torso design which was creation of small accident. He stands about 25 cm tall and contains BBCS, Bionicle and Technic parts. I say he looks good enough but fully customized arms would do trick. Sadly I’m lacking of inspiration and parts so that needs to wait for another time.

The colors seem a wee bit confused, but the build is great!

Did you by chance base it off these guys?

If I compare this to a real Ultramarine, I can point out a few flaws, namely the fact that he has no bolter, he is not bulky enough, and where are the giant shoulder armor? Otherwise a cool moc with a nice build.

This is as close as I can get with my parts if you have any good ideas fell free to share em.

I’ll work on a bolter then! and for the shoulders I would recommend using classic lego pieces.
Indeed sadly I don’t have too much lego pieces around.
I really enjoy the build of the MOC, but I’m a big fan of how you built the legs!

That guy’s wearing a Hau!
It looks alright, actually, but he’s a little cluttered and all over the place. But the build from what I can tell is pretty solid.
I might not have titled it “ultramarine”, as then we are judging it against something rather than evaluating it for what it is: a good MOC. Not really bulky enough to be an ultramarine, but he looks pretty good, albeit a bit cluttered. Nice work!

I’m going to have to make this now.
Anyways, the moc is nice, and it resembles the picture above. Pretty nice
I agree with the others. The color distribution is a bit off and some of the designs seem fairly lazy (Sorry) but they work pretty good here. Nice work, overall.
Not the Ultrasmurfs!
I love this! I have never seen a warhammer 40 000 bionicle MOC before! Awesome!
Quick Review:
Pros:
Solid and complex build
Fairly consistent colour scheme
Shoulder pads too big to be practical
Captures the essence of a space marine fairly well
Nice weapon
Cons:
Colour scheme is very busy, too many different shades of blue
Waist is much too thin for a space marine, it should be much more bulky
Weapon doesn’t scream “Bolter” at me
Overall: 7/10
Good looking moc, but not quite a Space Marine yet.
FOR THE EMPEROR!
