Like Skalk's nurgle tank.

Hmmm....... Maybe but then i'd have to make hella posession around the pod, could a creature survive the whole pod thing? deamon or not? prehaps a semi-organic looking membrane i'm more inclined to model, but how!

UPDATE!

No new pics... yet but i've been lowly painting more CSM, and once i've painted all CSM (infantry only) i will buy more stuff for the admech.

assembled admech but unpainted roster thus far:

19/20 plague servitors (PB's)

17 horror/guard. I toop off the gun barrels of the lasguns but am unsure on what to replace them with, ideas? I thought the end of the guass rifles but i don't have alot of $$. scratch built tip ideas? This
-2 bolt of tzeench
-1 changling: He is the only completed true "admech" model i have, the flagellan horrors are going to be posessed slave guard, the other horror squad is the taylor style admech, so the changling (and i'll post pics sooon) consists of

Woood elf hooded head, holding an auspex, cadian body, HE archer legs, vox caster, satalite dish on one side, lasgun on the other, and extra antennae making the backpack big. His representation is he doesn't use a glamour but rather he hacks the enemies targeting system and makes them attack themselves!

2/5 seekers/hounds
2/3 screamers

10 flamers (two floating gun servitors which are bolts) and 8 servoskulls, fully painted but not based yet, post pics soon.

More nice models. I like the autocannon idea, and the screamer is intresting For the screamer are the spikes built into the engine intake or did you make?

Post by: IronfrontAlex


oh yes! i noticed that when i made the post!

So i wanted different lasguns, Using lasguns but counting as warpfire just seemed.... off. Mind you i would like to use some of the more regimented units in the admech force to be used as IG in the future if i ever buy the tanks!

But i wanted a different lasgun, i was on the fence between two simple conversions, lasguns with barrels removed and either
A:Kroot rifle ends; these seemed to look too much like melta guns though...
B: The old, gross, and almost nippley Smoke launchers for the Russ kits

the latter won, it gives the gun not only a non-imperial feel but also a kinda tesla style zap zap pe pew kinda lazer gun kinda feel!

As mentioned last week for your horrors that don't have covered faces, greenstuff and one of these legos = instant gas-mask/atmosphere purifier or what ever you want to call to suit back story.

Dude this same exact thing happened to me: I hadn't played 40k in 7 years but then Last Nov I dug out my Word Bearers Army only to find out that all of the deamons had been neutered. For me the appeal of the Word Bearers was the ability to summon any of the deamons like Blood-letters and deamonetts.

I considered starting a Chaos Deamons Army but I like the fluff element that the Dark Apostle is a Chaplin whos gone to the dark side. I also loved that I could put 10 Khorn Bezerkers in a Rhino drive them right into the enemy front line and then jump out and cause mayhem while the more level headed Troops could focus on the objectives. Meanwhile I've got a Dark Apostle summoning deamons at will with 3 Oblits protecting him and killing all those foolish enough to get in the way.

MUHAHAHAHAHA

I loved playing this army.

Ha! when i got back into it I did use marks often but i have since then stopped using cult marines unless on rare ocassion. I Run undivided but my HQs (Lords, Sorc, DP's) ocasionally and usually have a Mark of some kind to represent an ability. But i feel the pain too man....

I realize you have all been in the dark as of late. and i apologize., i wanna have good lighting conditions for taking pics and will soon.

SO MUCH HAS HAPPENED!

I have fully painted, sealed and based about 90% of my CSM infantry, once the vehicles are done i can begin making warmachines and the army will be complete, im thinking about selling the spare CSM i have on hand....

my admech army had been completed for a while now, and although i've only been playing them as deamons i made them with the SOLE intent of making them necrons, as I hate their current one i've been waiting it out but been impatient. As deamons my admech army has been preforming much better than my CSM as of late but thats no worries. I will have pics soon and show you guys what will be count as cron's I've been keeping a close eye on the rumor mills as well and that is why i also have at least 3 secret half built projects that just need confirmations but ATM it seems as though i'd have some scarabs, to three lords, possibly 2 of those rumored lord vehicles, a large vehicle, 20+ flayed, about 20 warriors, 3 wraith or some jump infantry thing and 3 heavy destroyers possibly.


PICS SOON I PROMISE!
