Stobz'n'Sons' Mini Titans: Atarus vs. Krytos

[Interrogator Stobz]

...This is their recent status:

[Mendi Warrior]

Nice!

A huge parcel it is, plenty of fun ahead 

[Master Ciaphas]

Wow. That is indeed a huge parcel! And what a joy it must be to open it!

 

I am looking forward to seeing everything assembled and painted! :-D

[Interrogator Stobz]

Distractions from painting Titans:

 

 

Gotta enjoy being locked at home.... silver lining and all.

[Fajita Fan]

That’s enough lancers for a household, did you pick a house?

[Interrogator Stobz]

Hey FF, I'm leaning towards doing a DIY one.

 

I have a paint scheme planned and it doesn't seem to match any of the listed Houses.

 

It'll be a bit Mechanicum aligned, but not an actual Mechanicum House. I would love to expand ot in the near future to include the minis hinted at in the Ryza leaks.

 

FYI, all the Questorus chassis will be a traitor House chosen by my Son, the Cerastus and Acastus will be my DIY House.

[Interrogator Stobz]

Ooh, I have gotten 4/5 of the TotHII vow complete:

 

[Mandragola]

Nice. And a legal maniple too. Good work.

[Mendi Warrior]

They are really gorgeous!

[Interrogator Stobz]

Thanks Guys!

 

I have the young Servitor cutting his final Reaver from the sprues as I type this :D

[Interrogator Stobz]

Distractions from painting the Reaver and actual work during the enforced work from home situation:

 

But a bit of progress nonetheless:

 

[Dark Bjoern]

I painted my tokens and marker too, good luck!

[Interrogator Stobz]

Thanks DB, I saw those in your thread; it's great motivation to see so many peeps making the effort, because they truly are a bit of labour.

[Dark Bjoern]

so true! 

[schoon]

LOL!

 

I'll be painting my arcs and tokens, not as a distraction, but as a test bed for some new techniques I'd like to test on something before my Titans

[Interrogator Stobz]

Heh hey heh, I kinda did too.

 

My DIY Loyalist Legio will share some of those paint recipes.

Good progress. Nice tokens and markers! I need to do that too, so far they are only undercoated.

[Interrogator Stobz]

Thanks Warrior,

I undercoated with rattlecan gold instead of my usual black; then I just bunged a bunch of red, brown and black washes on them, easy as and fairly fast for three sets of markers.

One day I may add more red wash to the recesses as it's not visually strong enough as is.

The only actual paint was a really light drybrush of gold once the washes had dried and ofc on the skulls, that stage sucked a bit.

[Mendi Warrior]

I undercoated them Chaos Black ... gold might have been a better idea. I see what you mean regarding the skulls, I just spent two days painting the scenery windows blue and putting Drakenhof Nightshade on them, it takes ages ... (still trim remains worse  )

[Interrogator Stobz]

I don't mind trim; windows sound horrible, I hadn't considered them, not looking forward to painting my scenery now :D

[Mendi Warrior]

Lol, there are many windows in the scenery I assembled and undercoated lately   (to be honest these were not 2 full days of work otherwise I would probably have gone crazy … or maybe I already am crazy  )

[Interrogator Stobz]

Despite my TotH2 being 'complete', there's always more we can do.

So I convinced my Boy to let me add non-standard transfers and some weathering to his toys.

I'm glad he let me, only basing to go once Lockdown status changes allows shopping.

[Frostbit3]

I’m glad he let you too. Looks great.

[Interrogator Stobz]

Thanks Brother Frostbit3.

[schoon]

Looks great, and that's an excellent group shot!

 

Where did the non-standard transfers come from?
