hermanista Posted March 12, 2021 Author Share Posted March 12, 2021 Trokair/Magor Takatus It is a really cool piece of kit and draws nicely on various pieces. The name completely escapes me atm though. Aarik I'm adding some below as part of the update :) InKaras The joys of hobbling, theres no need to be a fan of everything :) Latest update So I've been back in work almost a month and it's been crazy, so printing has definitely slowed. However for some admech/knight pieces I've been doing for myself, I've added some pics to show them off. I really want to start on the Centurius, but no time to sit and do it of late. walter h, brother_b, Magos Takatus and 4 others 7 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/345486-hermanistas-knights-mechanicus/page/22/#findComment-5677755 Share on other sites More sharing options...
nagashnee Posted March 13, 2021 Share Posted March 13, 2021 WOW those custom knights are fantastic, truly great work!!! Are you sharing/selling the files for them anywhere? walter h 1 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/345486-hermanistas-knights-mechanicus/page/22/#findComment-5677918 Share on other sites More sharing options...
MajorNese Posted March 14, 2021 Share Posted March 14, 2021 That's an interesting design - is it intended for Armiger size, or full scale GW knight? WOW those custom knights are fantastic, truly great work!!! Are you sharing/selling the files for them anywhere? Those are from a designer called Aphyrion. There's a patreon, and some files are sold elsewhere (I'm not really familiar with the details of that). And yeah, a friend is printing that stuff too. Once I'm done with my current titan, I'll get an Aiakos too.

INKS Posted March 15, 2021 Share Posted March 15, 2021 I don't know how this works but is it cheaper to print your own stuff? Is the quality good?

hermanista Posted March 15, 2021 Author Share Posted March 15, 2021 MajorNese Aye, it's a downscale to armiger size, so intended as a Helverin really. Nagashnee As Majornese said, they're from a patreon from Aphyrion so you can sign up with there if you have a 3d printer to do them - I love her stuff, and have printed a few bits for a couple of mates after getting her permission to do so. Some of the Admech stuff is also stunning. Inkaras Expensive in relative terms to set up, but cheaper when it comes to make the stuff. Once you get the machine dialed in you can create some amazing pieces but a big part of it is the quality of the file you are using. I'd say my quality control is better than Forgeworlds atm, but I'm printing bits in ones and two compared to their mass production.

BassWave Posted March 16, 2021 Share Posted March 16, 2021 This is really cool stuff! Do you have any tips or resources you can recommend for someone that wants to get started with resin printing?

Aarik Posted March 18, 2021 Share Posted March 18, 2021 (edited) Really awesome stuff! Thank you for posting more pics! Are the guns on what I think is the Myrtus Tormenter from the new Aiakos Centurius model that's on her CG Trader account?

Focslain Posted April 2, 2021 Share Posted April 2, 2021 (edited) This thread rocks. Any advice on where to get printed bits? I don't have a printer myself Shapeways, Etsy or the artist's store if they have one. Normally if the artist is selling the part pre-printed they will link them to where to buy them. If they aren't doing that then I'd look into getting a printer if your going to be doing a lot of it.

Great lines! Are they your own writings, or from a Games Workshop publication? Something I found online as a GW quote from somewhere, suitably stolen/repurposed. So this Saturday I'm off to play toy soldiers! During the UK lockdown I went and played some TTS games and went to an event at Element games about 6 weeks or so ago. And this week my local store is doing a small 1500 point one day, I think about 12 players for it and obviously In taking my knights :) Thinking something simple, there's no painting award for the event so there's a bit of leeway on how good it actually looks - but my usual play it painted standard is in effect. Two options of what to take, I'm not decided which to go with. Megaera, megaera, warglaive One of each Assassin. Or Megaera, Megaera, 4x Warglaives. Need to decide by tomorrow as we're away house sitting this weekend so it'll need to come with me tomorrow after work.

hermanista Posted September 25, 2021 Author Share Posted September 25, 2021 So I took mono knights, running them as freeblades for the first time which is a lot of game management compared to running Krast. But also kinda successful! Finished 3rd of 12, beat Howling Gryphons round 1, lots to an Iron Warrior Lord of Skulls round too (everything bounced) and beat blood angels round 3. I'll take that! Magaera, warden, 2x Glaives and 2x Lightning Moirax Will do a lost of items and Burdens later Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/345486-hermanistas-knights-mechanicus/page/22/#findComment-5745973 Share on other sites More sharing options...
