Freakshow668 Posted August 20, 2018 Share Posted August 20, 2018 Hi, Having more or less finished my Emperor's Children and a couple of knights during ETL, i'm starting a new project. As i couldn't possibly collect something that isn't chaos, i figured that a Dark Mechanicum contingent would be fun. This thread will chart the deranged creations of Erasmus Krieg, my Dark Magos. So far i'm planning Daemon servitors, beastmen Skitarii, daemonette infiltrators, bloodletter ruststalkers and Kastelan robots made from whatever rat ogres are called now, but we'll see where my fevered imaginings take me. Any ideas for insane kitbashes welcome. The more insane the better! First up, some Kataphrons and servitors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dchmp Posted August 20, 2018 Share Posted August 20, 2018 Love the figs! What colors are you thinking? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freakshow668 Posted August 20, 2018 Author Share Posted August 20, 2018 Probably a pallid brown for the flesh with with the metal parts just starting to corrode. The overall colour scheme will be dark green, so I want the flesh to stand out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
N1SB Posted August 20, 2018 Share Posted August 20, 2018 This is awesome and my favourite is the Plaguebearer Servitor with the ammo belt coming out of his gut. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charlo Posted August 20, 2018 Share Posted August 20, 2018 Plague bearers lend themselves so well to this because they (rightly so) look formally human! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pearson73 Posted August 20, 2018 Share Posted August 20, 2018 Ooh yes, the Plaguebearers work very well for this, looking forward to more and some paint. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Freakshow668 Posted August 21, 2018 Author Share Posted August 21, 2018 Two servitors and a kataphron attempted today. C&C welcome. Thanks for looking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noctem Cultor Posted August 21, 2018 Share Posted August 21, 2018 Suggestion Nurgle Daemon Prince mixed with Onager Dunecrawler give it a mini plague Hulk vibe? -Noctem Cultor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pearson73 Posted August 22, 2018 Share Posted August 22, 2018 That's some quick paintwork, the pink provides a nice contrast to the green. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freakshow668 Posted September 17, 2018 Author Share Posted September 17, 2018 Been making slow progress on the rest of the servitors, but have managed to put together my Kastelan robots. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ElDuderino Posted September 17, 2018 Share Posted September 17, 2018 Cool stuff, I love the creativity on display. I might have to build some techmonsters myself now. The heads used on the kastellans are a nice touch, looks suitably creepy and unnatural Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freakshow668 Posted September 17, 2018 Author Share Posted September 17, 2018 Thanks dude, I need to shorten the neck of the guy with shield, but other than that I'm quite pleased with them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pearson73 Posted September 18, 2018 Share Posted September 18, 2018 Those Skaven kits are a great base for Dark Mech madness. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freakshow668 Posted October 13, 2018 Author Share Posted October 13, 2018 Little update, got my Dominus, Datasmith and Enginseer stuck together, and started work on some Rangers and Vanguard. Proving to be a LOT of shaving down of parts though! Thanks for looking, hope you like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freakshow668 Posted December 1, 2018 Author Share Posted December 1, 2018 Been a while, but i've finally finished my Dominus, Enginseer and Datasmith, and the kastelan robots. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pearson73 Posted December 1, 2018 Share Posted December 1, 2018 Thanks, I found these quite a challenge, they're very busy models, lol. I can appreciate that, I'm very slowly painting a Tech Priest Dominus and keep having to stop to consider the colours of all the different details. Trying to keep things simple yet still appealing is difficult. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
