Vel'Cona Posted May 24, 2015 Share Posted May 24, 2015 Dang Vash, nice Kastelan! Where did you get those shoulderpads? Centurions? Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/307101-ad-mech-today/page/12/#findComment-4056761 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vash Posted May 24, 2015 Share Posted May 24, 2015 Thanks. Centurions, thats right :) Not really much of a fan of the smal shoulder pads when the rest of the model is pretty bulky.

MithrilForge Posted May 24, 2015 Share Posted May 24, 2015 Yes Vash, a very well done model and the shoulder pad idea worked very well !! it does add a certain "Bulk Aesthetic" as always, speed and skill are your trademarks !!

Vash Posted May 24, 2015 Share Posted May 24, 2015 Thanks guys. Speed I don't know :) I have been slacking off very much lately. Mainly because of lack of spray cans... But tomorrow I am getting a new batch. :D Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/307101-ad-mech-today/page/12/#findComment-4056828 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kilofix Posted May 25, 2015 Share Posted May 25, 2015 Got my Orange coat on. Black, then red next. Then touch up the color bleed with Leadbelcher again. Then brass, etc.,etc. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/307101-ad-mech-today/page/12/#findComment-4056982 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frater Cornelius Posted May 25, 2015 Share Posted May 25, 2015 Today I finally for off my arse and finished the base. Now this is the very bottom layer you see. It will all be covered in plenty of grass and moss. This is just the rocks, roots and twigs as well as the broken tree. The tree was taken from the GW terrain set, base is custom and everything green is hand-made.

Perry Posted May 25, 2015 Share Posted May 25, 2015 Today I learnt how deadly a unit of Grav Destroyers can be. Played a large Apocalypse game, I used a battle company of Ultramarines with support from a Knight, some Skittari, 6 Breachers and 6 Destroyers. First turn the Breachers stripped away some hull points from a Brass Scorpion, whilst the Destroyers trundeld into range of a Wraithknight. Turn two one unit of 3 Destroyers took away 5 wounds from the Wraithknight, before it was finished off by the Knight's thermal cannon. My opponent wasn't best pleased. The Destroyers then spent the rest of the game punishing Tyranid Gargantum and monstrous creatures and earning abit of a rep for themselves. The Knight earned another kill marker by cutting the head from a Scythed Hierodule, before losing its last hull point from a hammer of wrath attack from a charging carnifex. I'm going to enjoy having plenty of Destroyers as troops choices :P Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/307101-ad-mech-today/page/12/#findComment-4058143 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vash Posted May 25, 2015 Share Posted May 25, 2015 Assembled 3 out of 6 Kataphon battle servitors. I made 3 breachers with heavy arc rifle and hydraulic claws. Now the hydraulic claw might not be there all the time, but to be honest... my opponent won't see the difference between the arc claw and the hydraulic claw. Eager to try these Cult units. I am so looking forward to this weekends release. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/307101-ad-mech-today/page/12/#findComment-4058221 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vel'Cona Posted May 26, 2015 Share Posted May 26, 2015 Mine should be coming in this week. I may bump them up in my vow queue (still gotta get those in before next week!) just to have an excuse to work on them next!

Kriegsmacht Posted May 26, 2015 Share Posted May 26, 2015 Did more work on my second Knight tonight. Washed some parts and painted white on the top carapace armour(sooo annoying).

Ascanius Posted May 26, 2015 Share Posted May 26, 2015 Brothers, I am so bad at painting. Man. Also, the arms on my Skitarius with the transuranic arquebus ended up messed up, so I had to trim the base of the rifle stand to make it work. Now he looks like he's shooting at a Squat. I guess it won't look too bad if posed on high ground. However, I've just started on the pressure suit. I'll do the second coat on that, tidy up the inner robe and metal parts, then figure out the next step. I'm not sure if I want to buy Brass Scorpion to detail the bronze parts on the armour and weapons, or just stick with one of the colours I have, like Hashut Copper.

Targetlock Posted May 26, 2015 Share Posted May 26, 2015 Just finished off this lot! Rather different to everyone elses stuff, but unleash the bio-mechanical heresy of K'Thul The Large ones are count-as Onagers, the smaller ones with guns are Ironstriders, the others are the dragoons :) had a lot of fun making these and my opponents have enjoyed seeing them on the table if a little freaked out by them hehe. more photos and info in my thread.

marshall Egregorius Posted May 26, 2015 Share Posted May 26, 2015 Very nice progress Kilofix! As for me, I will be priming my onager #1 tonight, and plan out some ideas for magnetizing the bases of my ad mech for transport. Furthermore, I will be making a decision on a question that has been plaguing me.

PraetorDragoon Posted May 26, 2015 Share Posted May 26, 2015 Letting the bases dry of my Sicarian Infiltrators. Only Vanguard, Ironstrider and Onager to paint of my Skitarii aftewards. My first 1000pt list painted! Then we start with the Cult Mechanicus. *sigh* Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/307101-ad-mech-today/page/12/#findComment-4059352 Share on other sites More sharing options...

MithrilForge Posted May 27, 2015 Share Posted May 27, 2015 Update: Sicarians assembled. The time for priming is at hand . . . Heya Vel'Cona, Quick question...

anselneo Posted May 27, 2015 Share Posted May 27, 2015 Hi Mithril, Yes they are on 40mm bases. I cross checked the GW site to confirm "This 117-component, multi-part plastic kit contains all the parts necessary to make either five Sicarian Ruststalkers (including one princeps), or five Sicarian Infiltrators, and comes with five 40mm bases."
