Building Site - Imperial Knight and others....

Hey all,


Now that the Night Lords have vacated my premises (didn't give so much as a by your leave) I now have time and space to crack on with my Heresy armies primarily. I am very keen to finish off the armies that I have mostly complete, which constitutes the Mechanicum and my Shattered Legion. 

I DO however also have a desire to make some headway on my (nearly) entirely third party parts Imperial Militia force as well... So here are a few pictures of some building and painting headway I made last night. I am hoping that the Imperial Knight will be finished this week and then I can start on my counts as Anacharis Scoria using the Belisarius Cawl model!




And the first nudge at my Imperial Militia...


Peace out,

Rob

Wrecked Imperial Knight Terrain - WIP

Howdy,


A few very scrappy photos of something I bashed out last night as part of the night lords commission! I was sent a knackered imperial knight to turn into some terrain pieces and I enjoy painting things all battered so this suited me down to the ground! Highlights and weathering needed, plus the addition of some static grass for contrast on the base. Then everything will be shipped off on Saturday back to the Netherlands!






Peace out,

Rob

GORE! Completed Arlatax Battle Automata

Hey gang,


So after some fun with a brush and blowing my lungs out, I present to you the finished, infamous, and decidedly blood splattered Arlatax! I should be playing this chap for the first time on Friday so I'm looking forward to seeing how he does :)











Peace out,

Rob

Return of the Cybernetica - Converted Arlatax Battle Automata WIP

Hey all,


After a fair stint of not doing any mechanicum, I've been pootling along with one of my final models to complete for this army, a converted Arlatax from a Domitar chassis. This guy is mostly complete right now. I need to paint the blue power effect on his trailing wires and arm gun, but then he is going to get a matt varnish (something I am always terrified of doing) and then splattered liberally with several shades of blood. 

Oh yes.

The Arlatax is notoriously a malevolent cybernetic construct and as I will be running it alone with the Paragon of Metal upgrade, it felt appropriate to have look like some crazed machine that has gone on a slaughterfest. Rules wise it will have IWND, Rampage and Rage! So with its jump pack mobility and move through cover, hopefully it will either get into combat and mulch things or act as an excellent distraction that draws fire.




Peace out,

Rob

Night Lords Land Raider Commission - WIP

Hey all,


Another quick update today on the Night Lords. Pictures are a little squiffy as I took them very early and in a rush for work! Little bits of tidying up to do as well as the lights on this bugger but nearly done! Just got some wrecked imperial knight terrain to work on (and some lightning on the other Night Lords) then I can send all this stuff back to its owner!





This tank has re-affirmed my hatred of painting flat open spaces. I'm just not all that good at it!

Peace out,

Rob

Night Lords Helbrute Commission - WIP

Hey fellow hobbyists (a fellowship perhaps),


Been pursuing the end of this commission this weekend and I am getting close! The land raider already has its lightning lines on and just needs its lights doing to be completed. The helbrute still needs all the metal highlighting and lightning lines adding, but has also come along a lot this weekend. So here are some snazzy snaps! The front of the torso is none standard as that bit went missing and so I added some bits to make up for it, its not complete though as yet, just a couple of bits to add to cover the join of the horns piece.










Peace out,

Rob
