Thought i'd start a blog for my Knight build as I feel it's gunna be a real adventure

This is where I'm at after 2 evenings of work. Main body and legs built and the base detailed and textured with PVA glue and gravel. Grabbed a can of leadbelcher spray yesterday too so that'll be a godsend when paint work begins on the skeleton

**Floyd73**

Added a bolt from inside the waist up into the torso so that It can be taken off for transportation and can be posed during games etc.

**Floyd73**

Got the base and feet painted up

**Thraxas Of Turai**

Good work on some of the additions Floyd, the bolt is a great idea for transportation. Nice start on the base too, good luck with it.

**Matthew**

B-E-A-UTIFUL! I really love that bolt you added.

**Floyd73**

Skeleton and all metal parts now leadbelchered up and given 2 washes of 50/50 mix of nuln oil and agrax earth shade. Drybrushing next!

**SJM**

Coming on nicely, Good idea with the bolt inside.

**Floyd73**

Thank you SJM!

Few more progress shots. Lots of drybrushing silver, picking out brass parts, agrax washes etc. Things should pop a bit more when I go in with the oil paints.

**Robisagg**

Looks awesome, I especially love the base!

**sockwithaticket**

Those are some well shaded metals and very well done eyes.The base is interesting enough without detracting too much from the Knight, will watch with interest.

**Floyd73**

Thanks for all the kind words guys!

Few more bits done over the last few days. Chainsword blue casing highlighted, shoulder shield all finished up and installed, stubber dome added and the thermal cannon all finished up (apart from scorch marks).

Also started to basecoat the armour parts

**Floyd73**

Some of the armour plates basecoated, washed and layered

**Stormwall**

Nice! Very clean work.

**RobertsMinis**

Great work. Might inspire me to finish mine!

**Matthew**

Exalted!

**Emperors_Champion**

Very nice work mate!

I haven't seen a model bolted since the Armorcast days!

**Floyd73**

Thanks guys! I'm itching to add the decals

**Floyd73**

A few more armour plates plus the helmet finished and glued on

**Floyd73**

Shoulder pads finished

**Matthew**

Looking pretty!

**Master Azalle**

This Looks Great!! How did you paint your enamel / bone coloring? Would you mind giving a step by step for the colors? I just picked up two knights in anticipation of the warden kit!

**Bottle**

A really nice clean knight! Great work!

**Floyd73**

Thanks guys! Well Here she is all finished up! Let me know what you think, any CnC welcome. Thanks for looking

**Ruberu**

That looks really cool. That was a good idea with the bolt holding the two halves together. Thanks for the step by step painting. I plan to build and paint one later this year as a small stepping stone to a Warhound Titan.

**Matthew**

She's a beauty! Any plans on weathering?
