Frater Cornelius Posted November 2, 2015 Share Posted November 2, 2015 Castellax are expensive and Kastelans look stupid if you ask me. The solution? 100% kitbash. What you see here is made 100% out of the material required to build 1 bot + some extra sprues cut up used to stabilized limbs. Here is the progress to far: http://i.imgur.com/zKv7KOV.jpg Still need to figure out how to do the head. Then green stuff cables and plasticard armour plates and some cloth on top. Knight Robot in the making ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pearson73 Posted November 2, 2015 Share Posted November 2, 2015 Looking great so far, nice posture. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mmimzie Posted November 2, 2015 Share Posted November 2, 2015 Is he talked than a kastelan?? If you replace the center of the body with a destroyer torso and head it'll look amazing and be the same size. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frater Cornelius Posted November 3, 2015 Author Share Posted November 3, 2015 Yes, they are inevitably taller due to the midsection and legs, which are actually made of arms :D I wanted to limit myself to just the Kastelan box. If I would have bougbt another box to enhance those, I could've bought the Castellax straight away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terminus Posted November 9, 2015 Share Posted November 9, 2015 Kastelans just need a different head. http://wargameexclusive.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/07/Adeptus-Mechanicus-Kastelan-Robots-5.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mmimzie Posted November 9, 2015 Share Posted November 9, 2015 I actualy kind of like the normal kastelan heads. Kind of make them look unthreatening; which make thier destructiveness more fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shinespider Posted November 10, 2015 Share Posted November 10, 2015 I love the idea of the blank, featureless head, but I think the existing models execute on that idea poorly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flint13 Posted November 10, 2015 Share Posted November 10, 2015 Not a bad start, but they look a tad gangly. I went a slightly different direction with mine. http://imagizer.imageshack.us/v2/800x600q90/537/kacH31.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frater Cornelius Posted November 10, 2015 Author Share Posted November 10, 2015 Well, I am going to armour them with plasticard soon to make them look more bulky. You are basically looking at the skeleton right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The squat torso on those goofy legs makes it look like it has dwarfism. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frater Cornelius Posted November 14, 2015 Author Share Posted November 14, 2015 Been playing with different head options. I like this one best: Hidden Content http://i.imgur.com/XNk9ZCb.jpg Next step would be adding weapons, cables and all the other tech. Once that is done, the final armour plates to make it look bulkier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
