Hi Folks, The W.E. (stands for Week-End, not World Eaters), has been calm enough to complete the lower part (a.k.a. legs) of the Styrix. After some tape masking and one or two small corretions, the armoured legs of the Styrix were maked-up in the same combination of Eshin Grey and Wraithbone as the paultrons. Plus some added red stripes, as on the illustration taken as a guiding model. Main difference is that panel colours are inverted in order to fit to the Heraldry guide for Questoris Mechanicum: Black (grey in my case) on the inside and White (bone in my case) on the outside. For the rest, it is mostly free style. One of the advantages of going Freeblade... Here is the resulting true crime, before panel glueing: The base is made to be a mid rocky reg, using the usual bark (maritime pine from my last holidays) suspect for modelling rock platforms. The legs have been painted following the Citadel colour tutorial on Youtube. at least for jacks and hydraulics. Next step will be final assembly and Decals. See you once done.

Stomp Stomp... Styrix incoming... This big guy was in my plans for a while, and some months passed since I listed its aquisition into the TITH thread (Today´s in the Hobby - See Amicus Aede sub-Forum). It was high time to strat working on this machine. I initially thought about enlisting it as a Plodding along, but I rather keep this pledge for some kitbashed vehicles waiting to be finished and painted for years (a quarter or 2 before I suscribed to this forum). And having to wait until the summer event is too much time. So here it comes as a multipart/Progress report style Blog entry. Today´s installment will be the chassis. Starting by the core stuff that support the whole robot yet the part which is probably going to be the easiest to paint. Afterall it is mainly dry brushing. I made so far 2 sub-assemblies: the legs and the torso. It is no rocket science as it is probably the most obvious construct if you do not stick too much to the assembly manual. They have a fiercy allure once set together, nope? I just hope I will not screw it all later with the armour plates... I will have to train into panel lining... Some details, starting with the power unit for the big volkite gun. This resin part was smaller than the place it is supposed to be clipped on, which led to some cutting job in order to get it in place. For the leg, I hesitate into painting the piston hydraulic part in a brighter colour, like a red for example, or keeping it just brushed. But a small test with red, it looked like more to a "pimp-my-ride" styled robot rather than to a venerable and respected Freeblade. I´ll let the bright coloured pistons to mekboyz. See you for next episode.
