Charlo Posted May 4, 2015 Share Posted May 4, 2015 This thread has gone down a treat in the BA section with 28 pages and counting... Just a place to post what you having been doing in the hobby regarding the followers of the Omnissiah, today! As for me, I sprayed my Skitarii sprues black! ....And got a wonderful pay backdate from work meaning I am open to buy a lot more where that came from (.....what army of unpainted BA Tacs, Death Company, 3 dreads, Bike squad, Stormraven +20-30 other models....) So fellow Magi, what have you done to support the Machine god Today? Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/307101-ad-mech-today/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frater Cornelius Posted May 4, 2015 Share Posted May 4, 2015 I cleaned my computer to appease its machine spirit and I have glued the pistons on the Acheron legs. Now I am juggling trees and try to decide how to do the base.

abraxus Posted May 4, 2015 Share Posted May 4, 2015 I finished installing the legs and arms on my computer and am now going thru the blessed rites to make them work correctly... Â I mean, I worked on my Dunecrawler.... yes that is what I did.

Apostle of the 30th Host Posted May 4, 2015 Share Posted May 4, 2015 Nice idea Charlo! :)  Today I started re-painting some of the armour plates on my Dark Mechanicus Knight as I felt they were not as neat as the rest. Turns out I also need to fix one of his Heavy Stubbers as the end appears to have broken off at some point and I only just noticed (and can't find the bit) - looks like I'll just be forced to buy a second for the spare Stubber ;)  I was also hoping my most recent Skitarii purchase would turn up today, meaning I could make my first vow - I found someone selling a new in box Skitarii Vanguard/Rangers set and the Codex for like £30 (normally like £45 straight from GW for those not in the UK) which made me rather happy. However due to the bank holiday there was no post :-/ Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/307101-ad-mech-today/#findComment-4029990 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vash Posted May 4, 2015 Share Posted May 4, 2015 Re planned my Skitarii list. Bought two new Skitarii boxes, and going to buy another box tomorrow. If time permits, I'll be jumping into the pile of boxes I still have of Skitarii units and assemble them. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/307101-ad-mech-today/#findComment-4030011 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charlo Posted May 4, 2015 Author Share Posted May 4, 2015 The urge to buy six Ironstriders is really big for me right now... I think in two units of three (three chargy, three jezially) they could be really awesome.

CommodusXIII Posted May 4, 2015 Share Posted May 4, 2015 Today I ran into a significant flaw in my Warlord Titan project. I want to enter it into Adepticon Titanicus next year, but the model is not exactly designed for mobility on the battlefield. The solution - designing a custom drop-platform caster dolly to wheel it around. Fortunately, I have a very handy and very bored coworker who enjoys weird fabrication projects.  EDIT: Bask in my amazing MS Paint skills. Obviously, this is not at all to scale.  http://i.imgur.com/rgFCMlSl.png Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/307101-ad-mech-today/#findComment-4030070 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother Amarel Posted May 4, 2015 Share Posted May 4, 2015 i practiced with my airbrush today only with valejjo colours, but tamiya is next :> Vallejo Air really are very good. I've actually finished a unit (to the level I'm taking them to). Woo.

Dez Posted May 4, 2015 Share Posted May 4, 2015 I've been using the Vallejo Game Air and they are great. My only quibble is that the paint dries really, really fast.  I haven't done anything today, (BOO WORK) but did work on building my Onager and Dragoon this weekend. Still have tons to build, including some more conversion work on my Knight.  I've also been thinking a lot about backstory and Logo for the Legio Diabolus. I'm pretty sure I'm going to name my first Knight the Dissident Aggressor. I need to start a blog so I can remember all this stuff...
