Certainly some of the best Ad Mech I have seen, whatever you are doing with the Kataphrons is looking interesting.

I agree with others on the grey, cracking scheme for these miniatures.

Thx very much all. Am really happy witht he grey scheme. The kataphrons wil be done the same way. One of them will have a little something extra built on behind him hence the reversed tracks to allow some extra room

The tech priest does look fantastic! I would love to see you add more 30k Mechanicum or 40k Skitarii to this force. Do you have any plans to do so?

Bye bye Dakkadakka, happy hobbying! I really enjoyed my time on here. Opinions were always my own :-)

Oh yes. I have a box of skits just waiting to be built and painted to add...... more 30 mechanicum.....FW stuff is nextto impossible for me to get out here. HOWEVER, the mother is coming to visit at christmas so I may order and have her bring the stuff over.
Defintely want one of the thanatar class automata and maybe the sycllax guardians as well...

@LeCacty - do you mean one of the Sydonian Dragoons? Already did one. Look back. I used it as a test subject for the paint scheme. Absolutely love that model despite it having like a billion pieces for the build. Trickiest wee fether ever to put together bt so worth it lol

really? It was a tough build but i realy enjoyed it. I painted it in about 5 subassemblies though i think so was nice to see it slowly come together bit by bit. Those pipes that conect from the inside of the legs to the main engine though.......those pipes can seriouslty feth right off though!!!

So, getting FW stuff while living outhere in Korea is a bit of a nightmare. Free shipping on orders over 100quid 'till the end of september is pretty delicious until Korean customs are considered as they charge a ridiculous import tax on anything coing in over the value of.........yup......100quid. After finishin my first ever FW/resin fig (the Castelax automata) I have been left hungry for some more FW deliciousness. Watching the Beasts Of War unboxing videos has really not helped the 'no I dont really need any of this stuff' cause. I WANT IT ALL!!! However, the mother is coming over to Korea for Christmas and so I see a way of getting some resi-crack!! I love their chaos renegades stuff - really rings a bell as I'm re-reading all the Gaunt's Ghosts novels and love how much we can see of Chaos beyond the usual 'CSM - now with extra spikes' stuff. So thinking of some of that - plus I want some more Mechanicum of course which'll serve nicely as some venerated relics for my 40K AdMech force as 'LostChild' currently is. I'm gonna try and keep my order to just over 100quid (bwhahahahahahahhahahahahaha- so not gonna happen!!!) but any suggestions folks? What do you reckon I should get? What's your fav bits of FW stuff thatyou reckon everyone should have in their collection?

Gotta be a Primarch, man! They are stunning pieces, soo fun to work on and full of character! Just pick your favourite and go for it!

On a smaller scale, I think there's some great stuff in the Heretics and Renegades line. The psyker and evil Ogryn look epic!

Dude. No. That's not fair. I was expecting to steal the show with my Mechanicus. And now you're back

That said, and jokes aside - if you manage to pull off the same grey scheme on those, they'll look grand. Maybe a bit of blue glow for the weapons and we'd have a winner
