Incarnating the God-Machine - ETL IV Vow Complete!


Recommended Posts

Here's my progress during the blackout:

Continuing to clean up various parts of the torso, and adding the yellow panels. I hate painting yellow.

Adding the black hazard stripes.

Finished some riveting on the panels. There's about two days' work left, but I have to pick up more paint.

Side view. The Opus Machina on the shoulders are the final bits of detail that need painting!

Piping on the back. The ladder cage (not pictured) clips into place, so it won't need to be glued. This should make it a bit easier to transport.

Side cannons test-fitted to see how everything matches up. Looking pretty good!

The head of the God-Machine. The windows, spotlights and camera lenses will be painted last, after the dark wash. I decided not to use the flexible neck tubing, as it proved impossible to paint prior to installation.

 

I'm heading out of town tomorrow for a wedding, but will be swinging by my FLGS on my way to pick up the last couple paint pots that I'll need.  I should finish painting next Tuesday, wash on Wednesday and complete the final detailing and assembly on Thursday.  Just in time!

Ah, that I'll post for you later tonight or tomorrow. I found an online hobby store that sells styrene letters of different sizes. I previously used them for vehicle markings for my Soviet Russian AM wombat patrol army, and liked them so much that I bought several sets of different sizes.

 

EDIT: Screw it, I like that version better.

No descriptions this time, only pictures. I apologize for the quality - my hands were shaking quite a bit! biggrin.png

And now that that's done, I'm going to take a break. Thank you for all of the feedback and encouragement over the past three months!

Inspirational stuff, it looks really sturdy too which is fitting :) The extra details are nice in the build, could we have some close ups on it please?

 

This makes me itch to get to work on my Knight. Not quite as impressive though, but large enough for now ;)

As requested in the AdMech ETL thread, here are some additional close-ups:

I'm frankly amazed by the detail on Lux Aeterna. The ladders, the vents, the banners, everything is super background-accurate and adds to the character of the model. I'd like to see a few 40k infantry models on/about this guy, to really give us an idea of scale. If you please, Magos CommodusXIII! msn-wink.gif

Presenting: 'Pest Control'. Skitarii Armsmen fend off a Genestealer assault while Lux Aeterna engages the Biotitans of Hive Fleet Formorii.

Tech-Priest Lygren generated much useful data within acceptable casualty parameters. He was posthumously incremented to Adept Seniorus.

Can you do me a favor Commodus? When convenient, can you take a photo of it from the same angle as the ID Titan cover? The one where he's just creasting the mountain range. Thanks!

 

We need to get some Photoshop on that bad boy, maybe give him a dynamic battleground and some lighting effects . . .

 

Had the wife help me with a little photoshoot.  I didn't have any white sheets to use as a backdrop, so you'll have to make due with scrap foamboard.
