So I am proud to finally join your ranks brothers I just got an Atropos as my first knight thanks to a little shipping messed up I will be a bit in assembly due to work and other incoming projects... any advice would be massively appreciated

 

 

Give it a nice warm soak and scrub in dish soap to get as much mold release off as possible. Then let it sit, dry for a while to see if it sweats any more release agent then do the process again.

I usually soak my pieces for 36 to 48 hours in warmish soapy water, then I scrub them with tooth brush and rinse them in warm water. Then I let them dry then clean them and maybe scrub again.

Thanks guys I planned on a 24 hour plus soak

Dry fit. A lot. And build in subassemblies before finishing up the model completely.

 

Are you planning on magnetizing your Atrapos?

This.

Also dont glue any of the panels until you have painted them.

Yeah magnets will happen for ease of transportation.

Also don't pull a me and assemble the leg from the foot up. I had done that and realized the groin piston ball bearing didn't quite line up to the pelvis... So I definitely echo the dry fitting. I also pinned my Atrapos' arms.

[Parweke]

Dry fitting! And size comparison of the toes!

Man that's a big foot I cannot wait to see it finished up

 

I will probably pin or magnetize them I'm unsure as of the moment would they be swappable side to side for a lefty pilot...

[Nusquam]

Wasnt the event supposed to start?

[Parweke]

Just realised that I have not posted the pic of my new colour scheme for House Col'Khak, so here it is! Also I will do the 4 Knights as part of Loaylty & Treachery III

[GhostMalone]

Sorry I've fallen behind I'll start the event this coming Sunday guys, flat out with work pulling 12-15 hour days

[Nusquam]

I wasn't happy with how the Lancers Lance was looking. So I made a flame cannon just to see how it would look. Much better in my opinion, so Acheron it is now.
 

 

[Lord_Ikka]

Just ordered an Atrapos, so hopefully soon I will be posting in this.

[Parweke]

Nothing exciting just build pics! :)

I just finished this Porphyrion so I figured I'd post her over here. Welcome the "Crashing Wave." She is the back line for the Ordo Reductor contingent "Poseidon."

[Memento Of Prospero]

House Col'khak has begun production! Pics coming soonish

[Parweke]

@ Wolf_pack, You too? Nice. Cant wait to see your version.

 

Im bit behind my schedule, but should be able to finish building my knights before the end of month. I have decided to add a 5th one to my house so little more painting.

 

Good news for me is that my airbrush works again (had to replace nozzle and needle) so that will speed up painting alot.

 

Im also damn near to order a Reaver, i might just do it later this month! :)

[Parweke]

Well, I was about to order the Reaver Titan but didnt because the missile launcher is no longer available.

 

I send FW email and asked about it. Lets see what they answer.

Moulds or master is probably been repaired so should be back up again in a few weeks.
