poom Posted April 29, 2015 Author Share Posted April 29, 2015 Thank you so much! Do you have any plans for entering this year's ETL (representing the Age of Darkness, naturally)? Yes I will take part and I promise to don't pledge crazy stuff like Titans I never finish. I learned from my mistakes.. Poom. Your Work is Awesom Haha the Inquisition came along. Cheers fellow Kraut! ______________________ Finished the Vorax: http://i420.photobucket.com/albums/pp282/PoomW/Vorax01%2006.jpg Together with the Castellax for the 30k Hobby Challenge: http://i420.photobucket.com/albums/pp282/PoomW/Vorax01%2007.jpg And together with the Scorpion for the Projekt500 a game at a german board, very similar to the ETL: http://i420.photobucket.com/albums/pp282/PoomW/Block%204.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aqui Posted April 29, 2015 Share Posted April 29, 2015 That last picture really gives an idea of how big that Brass Scorpion actually is! The Vorax look very nice. A modernised slice of old times Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

poom Posted April 29, 2015 Author Share Posted April 29, 2015 Looking great. How did you do the martian bases? Looking great. How did you do the martian bases? I think it might be the new Martian Ironearth. I haven't tried it myself yet. I use some GW Crackle paint on the base but not the new one, it was not released when I started this army. I do it like this: 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BeatTheBeat Posted April 30, 2015 Share Posted April 30, 2015 Absolutely gorgeous army, as a lot of others have said already. Everything's just perfectly amazing.Are you going to base that Brass Scorpion? It's gonna be a huge base, but it's in sore need of one IMO!Cheers,BTB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

terminatorAM Posted May 6, 2015 Share Posted May 6, 2015 Poom, this thread has become my favorite that I've seen since first following this forum. I can't wait to see what you'll posting next. Very inspiring, if I wasn't about to move, I'd be starting my own World Eater army right now. Did you ever finish Jeddek or the titan (going back a few pages I know)? Those and the other characters from Betrayer are my favorites. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
poom Posted May 6, 2015 Author Share Posted May 6, 2015 Thank you so much! Jeddek and Syrghala are both not finished. But now that the Mechanicum got a playable size I might go back to them and other projects I left half done.. __________________________________________________ I have very exiting news!

HardCoil Posted May 6, 2015 Share Posted May 6, 2015 This is just a fantastically executed army. I think it's the most menacing and scary army I have seen, especially the robots look really nasty! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a great moment, poom, when Greyall illustrates a character you've made. I should know.

AlanofAngels Posted May 7, 2015 Share Posted May 7, 2015 Hey man I spent the better part of an hour at work browsin through this and your stuff is amazing! Keep it up man seriously! I've been tempted to add some Mechanicus to my NL's so this might send me over the edge! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ammonius Posted May 7, 2015 Share Posted May 7, 2015 Your Mechanicum force takes my breath away. All of your color choices are so sinister, and everything is so well executed that all I can do is bookmark this thread and use it as inspiration to try to emulate. I don't even play 30K, and your work makes me want to buy some Automata! Bravo, Sir. Bravo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WilhelMiniatures Posted May 13, 2015 Share Posted May 13, 2015 I really love the bright orange bases, contrasting your dark miniatures! Are you doing the gaming board in the same way as the Mechanicum bases? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
