poom Posted March 3, 2015 Author Share Posted March 3, 2015 Some paint in progress: http://i420.photobucket.com/albums/pp282/PoomW/Block3%202.jpg And as the oilcolor is drying right now I got time to mess aroung with new toys.I want to build two Castellax with Multimelta and Siege Wreckers, two big and mean wreckingballs As there is no FW modell for a Siege Wrecker I have to convert them. Inspiration comes from this fanmade artwork:http://image.bolterandchainsword.com/uploads/gallery/album_9225/gallery_53779_9225_284142.jpgThis is done by Iron Hands Fanatic, go check out his awsome Stuff:http://www.bolterandchainsword.com/topic/287213-clan-brannsar/ So the conversion is quite simple, I just replaced the Castellax clam with a Siege Drill from the Centurions: http://i420.photobucket.com/albums/pp282/PoomW/Castellax02_01.jpghttp://i420.photobucket.com/albums/pp282/PoomW/Castellax02_02.jpghttp://i420.photobucket.com/albums/pp282/PoomW/Castellax02_03.jpgWhat do you think? The rest of the two guys is mostly in pieces, so still allot of stuff to do: http://i420.photobucket.com/albums/pp282/PoomW/Castellax02_04.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/288089-but-blood-blood-is-forever/page/11/#findComment-3967379 Share on other sites More sharing options...

KrautScientist Posted March 3, 2015 Share Posted March 3, 2015 Excellent use of the drill bitz from the Centurion kit! This may actually be the first version of those drills that I like!

poom Posted March 4, 2015 Author Share Posted March 4, 2015 Thanks guys They are build: http://i420.photobucket.com/albums/pp282/PoomW/Castellax02_05.jpg As all 5 of my Castellax have Boltcannons I used some Multimelta from Heavy Support Squads on them. Those needed some trimming and cabeling, but nothing major.

ducker12 Posted March 7, 2015 Share Posted March 7, 2015 Wow Poom you rock some excellent models I don't even really like most world eaters models but these are solid gold fella you're white looks so real the weathering and shading are well and above my own humble skills I'm new to Bolter and Chainsword but not the hobby and I have recently started sinking my skrilla into these epic (expensive) looking forge world sculpts, curse you beautiful iron armor. What sets did you use for the MKIII legs on you're Triarii I am starting an imperial fists army and I am in the midst of building two 20 man tactical squads and I would love to get some of the same dynamic sense of motion you have in you're Triarii as opposed to 40 flat footed dudes in yellow. I was wondering if you if you cut and repositioned any of the legs if you did you did it so well I can't see the cut lines and love some tips before I start carving up $$$$ of forge world Resin.  Thanks Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/288089-but-blood-blood-is-forever/page/11/#findComment-3970925 Share on other sites More sharing options...

poom Posted March 8, 2015 Author Share Posted March 8, 2015 Thanks guys for the nice feedback! You realy keep me motivated Never cease to amaze me poom.What kinda stuff are they putting in your mojitos to make you paint so well?! When can we see a family picture with your WEs and AdMech? Well, there is still some Mechanicum stuff lying around, mostly vehicles. But when they are done I could do a family foto I hope they look good togeather even with the different base sheme. Love it. The red soil on the tech priest is spot on for Mars! May I ask how you achieved that effect? It is very simple actually. I start by painting the sand Banblade Brown and the stones Charadon Granite. So a light brown for most of the base and a dark grey for the stones. Then I brush on the hole base Standard Rust Pigment from MIG. I use it dry, directly out of the pot. Blow away all loose pigments and seal it with MIG pigment fixer. When this is dry I go again with pigments, Standard Rust and on some places a little bit Light Rust. Blow away all loose pigments and you are done. The very bright effect comes from the unsealed pigments (also the dark paint scheme helps), the downsied of this is that you will loose some over time, so if you plan on transporting your miniatures I would not recoment to use a foamtray. Better to glue a magnet under the base and transport them in a metal box so nothing comes in direct contact with the base. Wow Poom you rock some excellent models I don't even really like most world eaters models but these are solid gold fella you're white looks so real the weathering and shading are well and above my own humble skills I'm new to Bolter and Chainsword but not the hobby and I have recently started sinking my skrilla into these epic (expensive) looking forge world sculpts, curse you beautiful iron armor. What sets did you use for the MKIII legs on you're Triarii I am starting an imperial fists army and I am in the midst of building two 20 man tactical squads and I would love to get some of the same dynamic sense of motion you have in you're Triarii as opposed to 40 flat footed dudes in yellow. I was wondering if you if you cut and repositioned any of the legs if you did you did it so well I can't see the cut lines and love some tips before I start carving up $$$$ of forge world Resin. Thanks I used half the mk3 despoilers and half Iron Hands mk3 squad. I think I only reposed one or two legs. What works great is to use the running leg, with the bended knee. Just cut it of at the hip and glue it on in a slightly different angle so your marine looks like he is resting his leg on a skull, hill or helmet. Hope it helps, have fun with your IF! ________________ Over the weekend I was able to finish the Thanatar and the Secutors: http://i420.photobucket.com/albums/pp282/PoomW/Tantanar01_05.jpg http://i420.photobucket.com/albums/pp282/PoomW/Tantanar01_06.jpg http://i420.photobucket.com/albums/pp282/PoomW/Tantanar01_07.jpg http://i420.photobucket.com/albums/pp282/PoomW/Myrmidon%20Secutors01%2003.jpghttp://i420.photobucket.com/albums/pp282/PoomW/Myrmidon%20Secutors01%2004.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/288089-but-blood-blood-is-forever/page/11/#findComment-3971487 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tyrannicide Posted March 8, 2015 Share Posted March 8, 2015 Those are probably my favorite bases. Ever.  I can't express this enough, every visit to this log is a treat. I could look at pictures of your models for hours. All the subtle modifications you've made to the Mechanicum range is so tasteful.

ninjasuperspy Posted March 9, 2015 Share Posted March 9, 2015 Whoa dang those bases are really something else and the heraldry on the Thanatar is just next level. Amazing stuff. (Also I'm a huge fan of your World Eater Plasma Support Squad made out of those Iron Hands dudes. I grabbed some Immortals off of eBay a while back but haven't done them up for my Alphas, I'm going to have to spend some time cleaning the cogwheels off of them at some point).

poom Posted March 28, 2015 Author Share Posted March 28, 2015 Hey guys,had finnaly a game with the Redjak! I basicly fielded everything that is painted, exept the assassine. It came to 1500 points.My friend had his Ottomans - in space - Astra Militarum, but sadly forgot to bring one of his miniaturecases containing most of the tanks.. so without his big guns you can imagine how it played out.. http://i420.photobucket.com/albums/pp282/PoomW/01_1.jpg http://i420.photobucket.com/albums/pp282/PoomW/02_1.jpghttp://i420.photobucket.com/albums/pp282/PoomW/1500%20Teaser.jpg http://i420.photobucket.com/albums/pp282/PoomW/03_1.jpghttp://i420.photobucket.com/albums/pp282/PoomW/10_1.jpg  http://i420.photobucket.com/albums/pp282/PoomW/04_1.jpghttp://i420.photobucket.com/albums/pp282/PoomW/05_1.jpghttp://i420.photobucket.com/albums/pp282/PoomW/06_1.jpghttp://i420.photobucket.com/albums/pp282/PoomW/07_1.jpghttp://i420.photobucket.com/albums/pp282/PoomW/08_1.jpghttp://i420.photobucket.com/albums/pp282/PoomW/09_1.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/288089-but-blood-blood-is-forever/page/11/#findComment-3990043 Share on other sites More sharing options...
sockwithaticket Posted March 28, 2015 Share Posted March 28, 2015 Love the scheme for these, makes them look even more foreboding than they usually do. That Thanatar! If I were to ever take the plunge into the heresy it would with Mechanicum and threads like this are a large part of the reason why.The photo of the lone storm trooper facing up to the Thanatar is a really nice summation of what service in the Guard is all about.

poom Posted March 28, 2015 Author Share Posted March 28, 2015 Do you have any plans to incorporate the new GW Admech minis into your army? I am thinking about to use the GW Skitarii as a little Solar Auxillia allied force. The "Ranger" as a big 20 man squad and the "Vanguard" as a storm section, all with volkite charger But lets wait what comes next week for them. Maybe I just start a regular GW Skitarii force in the future. Anyway I am very exited about this release!

Kizzdougs Posted March 28, 2015 Share Posted March 28, 2015 Hopefully the Skitarii rules will allow them to be assembled in a way that they can be used as either Skitarii or Solar Auxillia (like I've assembled my Emperor's Children veterans to be either Legion Veterans or Grey Hunters/Sternguard).
