Imperial Knight Shield Markers

So I wanted to way to display the shield facing for my knights and have some sort of hull point marker other than my wound counters.  Well enter Mechanical Warhorse. I picked up a bunch of these as they include side and front/rear shield markers and HP counters!!  A great value and I'm sure your opponent will appreciate not having to ask over and over facing directions.

Zup Bro! Questoris Knight Magaera and Radiation Base

So the Mechanicum has procured a new relic from the dark age of awesome. The Magaera knight!  Since this guy came out from FW I was "Must Have!!"

So the knight arrived Friday and I went to work.  I wanted to stick with my Mechanicus paint scheme the rest of my army sports.

First up is the base. I wanted a base that reflected a battle ( maybe hersey era) that radiation was very prevalent and extreme.  Most of my mechanicum army has Rad-cleanser so it was cool to have a base big enough to show Radiation Weapons.

Contemptor foot , Marine helmet and shell casings. radiation hot spot areas in green

So with the base done next the big guy himself!! I really enjoyed painting this model and assembly was straight forward.

Rad Cleanser on the claw 

I wanted it to look like the knight just irradiated the battlefield and on the prowl for enemy targets!

More knights arriving soon :)

Alt Tyranid models forsale

I am cleaning out some hobby stuff for the new year and stumbled upon these guys I had in the wings for quite some time.

I was going to use them for any little gribble that the bugs use especially to show a different bio-morph.  AKA poison etc Hormies or devil gaunts.


So I have 119 of these guys waiting for a good home( 4 boxes ). 1 is missing as I wanted to build at least 1 model when I got them ( will try and find him ).  If your interested drop me a line in the comments and we can work something out ( I'm willing to let these go cheap )

Magos Prime: Beast Mode

              Ima Firen Mah Lazor! 

The Magos Prime kitted out in 30k is a true beast. 2+, 3++ , 5+ FNP, T6!!!  I did a little kit bashing to make this bad ass a reality on the tabletop.  The mechdrites add so much to a plain looking model as well as the Rad Cleanser.  The new HH 4, conquest book is out as well and has some very neat Mechanicum relics. (I'm looking at you Scrapcode :) )

I'm also working on 3 huge models for my mech 30k army, but I want to get them all painted up before the big reveal!!! More to come this week!!!

Mechanicum HQ: Thin Man of Mars

Getting kicked back into high gear with some modeling and painting of the Mechanicum.  I really like these guys and if you are a fan of 40k, you will love 30k.  It seems more level even though points are way more and everything seems to be strength 10 AP2.  And Now the Thin Man of Mars !!!

Haters gonna hate!!!

 Mister Sinister or the Mechanicum Version of the Thin Man.  I did a Thallax head to tie him into the theme.  Grav weapon and Volkite round him out.  The claw goes as a powerfist usually.

Next is the uber bad ass Krios Venator Tank.  It's a WIP, but almost there. I really love this guy as he is so good at killing armor.  4 shots, ordnance, Str9 AP2!!!!  oh and BS-5.  It does look like a 80's decade bass cannon so I dub the " Crankenstien!!"

Castellax Cohort

What can I say about these guys.  They are awesome as models and rules.

Cyber Occulus escorts

I borrowed these from Warmachine.  They make a great Cyber Occulus, easy to paint , but you'll want to pin them as they are metal.

Servo-automata with flamer

These guys I made with bits and figs from other game systems .  I like how they are turning out and give the mechanicum the creepy vibe they deserve.  This is one of 3 different types I modeled ( melta, servo-arm, and flamer)

Tech-Thrall

Last but not least is my Tech-thrall.  I know this isn't the Forgeworld model, but it fits the bill for me and they are soo much cheaper.  WarGames Factory BTW.  I may add some green stuff cables etc at some point, but 84 of them is a ton of Green stuffing .
