lol. Girls High School Bottle - Big classes but they are trained! Discipline is never an issue with my lot. The worst thing I have to deal with it is the odd student sleeping in the back of the class.
2nd Dominus will definitely be getting converted.......not sure to what or how yet.......but yeah - loving some of those Inquisimunda convs. If you havent checked out IronSleet yet.......do so. Think you'll realy like.

I've been seeing your stuff from afar but never time to comment! As has been stated - far too few comments for such a great bit of hobbying going on here. The tank looks great, you did a superb job on it. The enginseer will fit in really well with the aesthetic of the force. Out of interest, have you any idea how you would incorporate those in to a playable force? Ie do you need to use them as "counts as" or because of the ally matrix will they just fit in that way? Just interested.

**Januine**

Fit in as in for a rules allowed playable force? Not really thought of it that way. I think more from a story and fluff view. With the Dracosan - it's a could they field such a vehicle fluffwise - the forgeworld are reclaimers - they travel about looking for lost tech that was damaged/destryed in some conflict which they then reclaim, repair, rearm and then reuse. A 40k forge digging up old tanks, automata and such to bolster their forge's taghmata - makes sense to me and fits the (well, at least my idea of) whole AdMech faction. Rule of cool and all that. Whatever they reclaim though I could see them upgrading a bit. Dracosan usually has a twinlinked lascannon as its main gun......I could see the cogbiys looking at that and thinking.....yeah ......we can do a little better than that.....have a lightning cannon instead

**Guildenstern**

Love your stuff can't wait to see more admechs >

I love those models and you make them look awesome!

**Januine**

Cheers Guildenstern - really kind to say

do have another tech priest enginseer (the new-ish one) coming up adn then next month - my admech forge shall be getting a few visitors - an Ordo Machinum Inquisitor plus retinue!!

**jetjetex**

Looking forward to seeing more! Keep it up!

**Januine**

Cheers jetjetex. More is defintely coming for the admech. Techpriest than an inquistional retinue from the Ordo Machinum! Stay tuned!

**Archer**

Of course it's a playable force. The models and paint job are too gorgeous to pass up the chance to see them on the tabletop. Wouldn't care if you made rules up. Just getting to play against them would be awesome.

**Januine**

Lol. Yeah - sure would love to get them fielded and fighting some day. Most of their rules are in the mechanicus red book fromFW - the thanatar for example. I do also eventually want a couple go big squads of tech thrall covenant. Great meat shields those boys!!

**TP^DC Deputy Manager**

You need to get these guys playing a game. They are too beautiful to stay on a shelf

**Januine**

Cheers TP

**Januine**

Helllooooooo nurse!!!! (Anyone not get that animaniacs reference - shame, SHAME!!!) This arrived this morning!! Ordered on Tuesday, delivered Wednesday. Finally get to add a dunecrawler to my admech forces

**Guildenstern**

What are we going to do today, Brain?

Oh yeah!! nice!! can't wait to see it =D

**Aryllon**

That, sir, is a beautiful Dracosan!

The weathering is perfect, love the use of a warm dust colour to counter the cold model tones. Top marks!

**Januine**

Cheers muchly Aryllon. Love the drac but I intentiin of starting a SA force. No worries - gave back to the cogboys who built it in the first place!!! Scratch building the lightning cannon from a pen was a bit of fun

**Knightley**

What are we doing today Januine?
The same thing we do every day Knightley, Try to paint all our models!
Narf

**Januine**

Lol - sooooooooo exalted!

**evildrcheese**

Ooo a new box of shinies. Any cunning conversions planned for these dudes?

EDC

**Januine**

For the extra dominos I now have... most definitely. Gotta finish the slaughteroriest conversionfirst

**Alaricuk**

Oooo loving the dracosan. Really nice finish and can't wait to see the finished enginseer with it.

**Januine**

And there's this...... lol

**whalemusic360**

I was actually just going to ask.

**LeCacty**

Warhound? Cant really make out the pieces but the top right looks warhound-y!

**ZergSmasher**

So it begins...

Can't wait to see you tackle a model of this size and complexity. I'm sure it'll be great!

**Knightley**

Welcome Titan brother to a pain in the butt model!

**Januine**

The pistons..........oh god the pistons!!
I have evrything I need to get going except the large magnets for the waist and the weapons so I still have lots to be gettign on with in the interim. Started clipping and washing bits already. I'll start on the upper body. I still need to get an appropriate base plate and a SW dread before I can start on the pose etc . BIG project!

**angelofvengeance**

Cool stuff! Will you be getting this fellow too when he comes out? He's called Belisarius Cawl, and a venerable Arch-Magos of the Mechanicus (and also the size of a Carnifex, so he's modded himself HEAVILY)

**Januine**

Ohhh you know I will!!!!

**LeCacty**

Now THAT is a techpriest!!

**Januine**

Spent the afternoon laying 'Twilight's Bitter Ire' out and checking if all the bits were there. All present and correct. Really top cast. Practically no air bubbles and just one minor localised bit of mouldslip. Cracking. Such. A. Beast. Lol
