Those are looking good. I take it you decide which if any missiles have launched? If so nice choice to have them look like they fire sequentially in neat lines!

How are the resin pieces pretty straight?

[Atia]

howdy

 

 ! That is BIG!

tbh, he's smaller than i though

 

Atia I must say I'm not impressed there should be a beer on that desk

Even elegant ladies should be drunk whilst tackling this bad boy.

But I digress, honestly I feel like your carrying the ETL for us this year.

Now if we can get KBA to put his badboy in the mix then it's a party

haha, i've some bloemen-bier here (and wine^^)

 

 

 

 

Wow!

thanks recon :)

Wine will suffice in this endeavour

 

Just don't spill it and stain that reaver ;)

[Doghouse]

Best of luck with the Reaver, I was looking at getting a Warhound yesterday funnily enough till I saw the youtube construction videos.

 

I admire your dedication and am sure you will do it proud. :tu:

[Atia]

My Assassinorum: Execution Force arrived today :P

each of the four assassins has it's own sprue:

[Atia]

the booklet has some fluff about the crimson slaughters quest to kill a star, and background to the four assassin temples:

ohhhh: and achievements

[GhostMalone]

Pffft assassins aren't a reaver titan fool

[Battybattybats]

What's the difference between the two Culexus faces? And which are you going to use?

[Atia]

No worries! the reaver still has priority

What's the difference between the two Culexus faces? And which are you going to use?

here are the two faces:

i'm going to use the left one

his body:

and the other three:

Total Gangsta!

Just straighten up his head and right leg a little bit and keep the gangsta grip on the bolter!

Maybe I'll try this with some left over cultists.

In all seriousness thanks for posting the pics! Still on the fence about ordering the game but the minis are cool!

[Battybattybats]

Cool, they are both quite cool variations. It'll be interesting to see that one done and painted :)

[ShinyRhino]

Is the Sorceror Lord a new push-fit sprue, or just the contents of the CSM Terminator Lord box?

[depthcharge12]

With the Legio Fureans being Indian in theme, I've heard it's good to watch Bollywood while you paint them to get in the zone :P

[Kydoimos]

Well, thanks to the ETL thread I discovered your work which is clearly one of the best I've ever seen. Can't wait to see this Reaver painted! Looking forward to seeing more! 

[Atia]

little update:

i've started to paint the interior and crew of my Reaver (i'll post some pictures tomorrow :P).

Total Gangsta!

thanks Batty! i may kitbash a female culexus in the future with the other mask :P

just the normal old Chaos Lord box (so you can build him either as Lord or as Sorcerer)

haha lol :P i've heard it's good to eat some indian food before you paint the Legio Fureans :D

thanks Kydoimos glad you like my thread!

also, in case you haven't seen it, our brave brother Carlson has finished another Legio Fureans transfer sheet! it's awesome, check it out :)

http://www.bolterandchainsword.com/index.php?app=downloads&module=display&section=screenshot&id=454

File Name: Legio Fureans (IK scale)

File Submitter: Carlson793

File Submitted: 06 May 2015

File Category: Heresy Era

By commission from Grand Master Laertes, depthcharge12, and Atia.

The Legio Fureans of the Dark Mechanicus Traitor Titan Legion, scaled for use on Imperial Knight models. Note: will require the use of Mechanicum decals provided with the Imperial Knight model for best appearance.

This sheet allowed me to do two new things. First, it is one of the first public sheets I've posted with multiple images, and the first not scaled for Space Marines or their vehicles.

Second, it is the first sheet I've produced that takes advantage of the layer options in Adobe Acrobat/Reader. The logos appear on the top layer, with additional layers to print the sheet with a Legio Fureans yellow background, Fureans flames behind the logos, or a light blue background (though the last may only be of use on screen to show what white/light logos are present).

You gonna make me blush, Atia...

[Battybattybats]

Oh i'm totally looking forward to that Female Culexus if you do make one! That would be very cool!

[Atia]

as promised:

early WIP of my Techpriest (it's pretty much just the basecoat, washes are next^^)

oh, and my Codex: Imperial Knights arrived

composition and heraldic of an imperial oath bound house:

mission completed!

hehe yay! Nemesis was awesome, so i NEED a female Culexus!

Nice Techpriest. Always good to have grabby things. :P

 

Seeing the pics of Imperial Knights Codex I can't wait to download mine.

[Battybattybats]

Really good dramatic lighting on the techpriest already. Excellent!

I haven't read Nemesis yet, I'm looking forward to it but i'm currently trying to read the rest of the heresy books in order.

And the codex looks good. I'm eagerly awaiting the delivery of mine. That mechanicus heraldry info is particularly interesting. I'm glad i'm not too far into the rest of my knights! I'll have to determine how to make my own variations of those rank markings that are recognisable but fit my scheme which is already established as archaic and divergent from standard.

I'm frustrated though that with two of the special skitarii decal sheets i only have 4 of those skitarii alliance markings to put on my knights, i don't know why they gave so many other campaign markings and only two of those per sheet! And only had them on the special knight sheet which i missed out on and not any on the regular one. Sigh. I guess i'll have to come up with something to deal with it for 1 on the 5 knights. I'm thinking of placing the skitarii alliance emblem over the black and yellow stripes on the knights right knee, as i've put the really old Titan decal on the knights left. I'm very very fortunate to have those old titan decals still.

[Atia]

Vipras Malaka, Legio Titanicus Tech-priest Enginseer Majoris

Tech-priest Enginseer contingents accompany the Mechanicus' mighty Titan Legions, carefully monitoring these mighty machine's systems and entreating their ancient Machine Spirits to function efficiently with rituals of placation and maintenance. In the heat of battle, the Enginseers will ease the machine's pain, performing damage control and field repair procedures, keeping their charge functional and willing to fight. The senior ranked Legio Titanicus Tech-priests are called Enginseer Majoris, and usual crew the mighties of Battle Titans - the Reaver, Warlord or Carnivores, among others. The biggest Apocalpyse class Titans, like the Emperor or Nemesis are manned by covenants of Enginseers Majoris under the command of a Magos Macrotek.

Nice Techpriest. Always good to have grabby things.

hehe yep, servo-arms are awesome! the new knights codex is faaar better then the old one

you can read Nemesis after the opening trilogy it's pretty cool, as you see the 6 different Assassin-Clades (and the first execution force!)

well, for the transfer sheets, you should ask Carlson! i'm sure he's able to do some "Mechanicus oath bound Knight transfer sheets"

Those robes have turned out brilliantly, nice blending. The rest of the reaver will be droll worthy too I'm sure.
