Greater Brass Scorpion Completed!!!

So I ended up not sleeping and to pass the time until work decided to finish this beast.  Very cool model, but if you don't like painting trim it isn't any fun :)

One note before the pics.  I'm getting tired of TO's banning crap based on what someone told them . So much stuff is OP in the regular game this knee jerk reaction to limit anything else is crazy and most is based on " I heard" .  Well why don't you get the book before seeing how this will ruin the game.  Example: Chaos Dreadclaw drop pods are assault vehicles.  OMG so broken!! Well if you read before you make that decision they are assault vehicle, but it specifically says models embarked CANNOT assault the turn it arrives!  So calm down.  Also the chaos land raider achillies is 330 and doesn't have the rule that prevents 2+1 dice for penetration ( it does have ceramite armor though ). For 330 I think it is fair ( and it only transports 6 and isn't and assault vehicle with POMS ).   So keep your Knight formation and wave serpent spam and have fun with the same army over and over.  And please be more closed minded cause that is what our hobby needs . ;)

ok,  now the pics

Added some gore and blood on the chain blades

This guy is huge!

Greater Brass Scorpion and Friends!

My Ebay binge continues a blistering pace and all due to the Imperial Armor 13 book.  Again if you don't have it yet and are a Chaos player it is a great book.

Well the Brass Scorpion I won 2 weeks ago has been stripped,  put together, and a few coats of paint have made their way onto the model.  I can't wait to play this thing.  So cool looking and perfect for a Lord of War.

I had trouble picking a color to go with, but settled on my current chaos color scheme of red and bright silver.  It contrast well and so many of my other models are sporting that paint scheme.

I started on some lighting effects as well on the main cannon and the scorpion tail thingy.

Above you can see the blue lighting effect and see the start of the armor trim being painted.  I did try 3 other colors but none of them popped as much as the silver. BTW there is a ton of trim to paint on this thing so I'm breaking it up over a few days as not to get sloppy and rush this.

So here is what I mean about going with the same scheme.  I ended up changing the Decimator from brass to silver trim.  It just seemed to pop that much more.

Well after this gets completed I still have the Fell Blade to finish, but I have no idea what paint is going to end up on that.  Maybe a White ( death guard ) or Khornate type paint.

 Check back soon!  More PMAC to come.


 

Imperial Armor 13 arrives !! And Decimator Engine progress

I can't say how much I love this book enough!  So bad ass!  So much real game info as well.  Greater deamons, renegade IG, daemon engines, super heavies, relic machines!!! it has them all and just in time!

So over the last few weeks I have been grabbing a few things here and there from ebay.  I managed to snag some in need of TLC Decimator Engines.  Well after some paint and TLC they have been waiting for IE13 to arrive to see what rules they have. So as rules go they are ok, nothing OP , but not a pryovore.

Now for some pics

"What you talking about fool!" 

Ok so these are only 1 of them , they other has silver trim just to tell them apart.  I need to add some OSL effects as well as some gore, but the base is pretty much done.

Can't wait to start on my Greater Brass Scorpion. Can you say Daemon Engine Army??  :)
