What a cool way to highlight black! The way you present your models is fun brother, and very nicely painted they are too smile.png

Happy you enjoy the presentation. I like to have fun with it :)

Thanks KBA ill give them a try when I finally get back home, damn you extended holidays I need my modelling fix.

Your models look great. An excellent start you've got and I'm very happy to have another XIX slugging it out in the Heresy with me.

Yeah, he's mean. Gives a real personality to the 'Guard, one you don't often see, its nice to see carrior bird traits trickling through instead of the Native trope.

Stereotypes can be fun, but pour it on too thick and it becomes pretty boring IMO.

Great kit Bash on the second Brother never thought of using those pads for a PA Marine. SWEET!!!thumbsup.gif

Thanks! It came out better than I thought it would. Really works with the helmet too.

“I can see just fine, Vrada.”

 

“You don’t miss the read-outs?”

 

“I'd shut them off.”

 

“Clean cuts. Your proficiency with a las-cutter is wasted in recon. You should have been a breacher. Still, Phearse, the Atarun’s armory exceeds Kiavahr’s. Had you attended the inventory and reload, you wouldn’t have half a helm.

“I like it. I am indebted to that World Eater and his chain axe  -- a favor not so easily repaid in this life, seeing as you put a bolt through his skull.”

 

“Lucky I don’t hold out for gratitude. How’s the hand?”

 

“Same as your leg, brother. Not there.”

“Orcan guarantees 10% increases on performances ranging from menial tasks to combat versus flesh. He sounds more like Iron Tenth than Raven these days. What are you doing way out here in the scrapyards anyway? We’re staged in the vacant Titan holds.”
 

“As you said, brother, trying to find that 10%.”

Time to introduce the antagonist of my tale, Forge Lord Lars Orcan, put to parchment by our very own Greyall, uber-talented artist that I owe many, MANY thanks to! I'm jazzed, excited, and terrified at the challenge of reproducing this at 28mm.

Interesting look.  Is the idea that he's still wearing the bottom half of a broken helmet or is it meant to represent a different form of headgear?

 

Still wearing the bottom half. He'd rather that than a replacement. Mostly out of spite. There's a growing divide in the battalion between those who are weary of their Mechanicum hosts of Legio Atarus and those who have taken to them a little too much -- under the leadership of Master of The Forge, Lars Orcan. Those who might have been able to do something about the tension are too caught up in grief, hatred, and PTSD from Istvaan to really do anything (Muninn Rax).

 

I love the beaked respirator half-helm. I look forward to seeing how that one paints up especially!

 

He's next up for paint, after my time-sensitive March of The Legions vow is complete :)

Thanks for the compliments guys :)

So far there hasn't been any Mechanicum forces of mine shown, despite a Krios and 20 thralls sitting in a cardboard box. But I'd like to share a snap of something else sitting in a cardboard box that I'm too excited to start work on:

I have only ordered the body plus the laser blaster -- I'm waiting on the Reaver Chainfist and the new carapace mounted weapon to go up for order. Too many knights stumbling around not to have something big and heavy to smack them with, I think :)

Going to grab some massive magnets too.

 

Yeah you can just go ahead and give me that, kthanx. 

 

Dude, you are going to do some serious justice to that. I can't wait to see what you do. 

 

Keep an eye out in your mail :P

 

It'll be in Legio Atarus colors, true to form of the thread. I'm leaning towards painting her as the reincarnated Red Naga from the Legio Atarus fluff in Massacre, but it might just be a war engine of my design.
