Awesome stuff dude love the basilisks.

Thanks JoeRugby, they have been slightly modified since the first page. When they changed from being earth shaker platforms to full on basilisks I needed to add a heavy bolter. This can be seen in the top in this picture here:





Also the Callidus coming together more:

So many walkers! Army looks sweet all gathered together, even top-down

Also more scissor assassins! W00T!

- Salvage

Thanks Boss.

Assassin is coming along painting-wise, and I have finished the first trooper except for details to be Elysian troops with lasguns. I had some vostroyans with lasguns for my Elysians before but I was never that into them.

Update: much progress on the mortar design, and also the Callidus:

Great stuff dude

Thanks JoeRugbyMade

Some 3d printed stuff for RPGs

And now for a totally different update, repainting my first Knight:

Looks grand

Also I went back through the plog to find pics of him pre-repaint, but no luck. But it was cool to see where some things started, the evolution of the assassin builds in particular. (PS: Still a fan, Callidus was looking good back when )

Oh! I dig the baby mortar too, good size and suitably gribbly legs.

- Salvage

Another quick update:




Heavy stubbed placement for the basilisks:



And starting up my Iron Warriors characters:

Progress continues on the Knight Styrix. Also I have unearthed an old photo of my first knight before it was repainted:

Lovely looking army. Great set of walkers

love the 50s looking green. echoing everybody else in the conversions topnotch work.

Thanks monkeytroll, yep everything must walk

Thanks alabamaheretic I really liked coming up with the green color, mixed it from mostly Celestra Grey, plus some Rakarth Flesh and Nurgling (or some other such) Green.

Updates, my Elysian commander's bolter has transitioned into a lasgun with auxiliary grenade launcher:



3d printed a bunker for my Dark Heresy group's game board terrain:



And also a ton of Mortar crawlers to be heavy weapon team mortars in my Astra Militarum:

That's a lot of gribbly little mortars

- Salvage

groovy looking commander, damn them mortars lol looks great dude

Yup, gotta have your 3 squads of 3 for 99 points.

alabamaheretic wrote:groovy looking commander, damn them mortars lol looks great dude

Thanks my dude, the commander is based on a Vostroyan sergeant and I really like how it turned out.

Minor update:

Knight Styrix with "the boys" aka Kastellan Robots.


Second picture shows the start of the banner placement I'm doing for this knight. Knight Magaera and Styrix don't have Tilting Shields so I wanted to do something to break up the somewhat plain and symmetrical chassis. Commander makes a cameo again.

Lovely stuff ph34r.

Good to have you back

Thanks JoeRugby! I've been a bit busy as of late but not too busy to start work on a Knight Castellan:



I've been working on the magnetizing but I should have some more put-together pictures of it soon.

The Castellan continues...

Coming along great dude

Coming along nicely. The 'basilisk' is very cool.

Thanks JoeRugby, and Insaniak. The basilisks are one of my simplest and most effective conversions to date, all thanks to 8th edition removing the gameplay difference between walkers and tracked vehicles!

This weekend Phobos Is going to the Bay Area Open. But first...

3d printing!


More 3d printing!


A whole ton of 3d printed stuff layed out in a mock-environment. My friends and I play Dark Heresy and we've been using these as the game board. Some of the pieces in this picture are a bit old and warped but they will be good placeholders for more proper prints.


And a glass bed to print on! This is a different sort of surface than what I am used to, but my tests so far have had results with PERFECTLY flat bottoms and zero warping, which is great for having things lay super-flat in an exact grid.

Minor update: have been working on Kill Teams.

I have an Imperial Guard (AdMech fluffed) and regular Adeptus Mechanicus Kill Team in the works right now. The Guard one is almost done. Here is one of my specialists, final paint details not yet done:






And a group shot of some of both the Guard and Mechanicus, from before I realized that Kill Teams could only be one faction.

Really loving the conversions on the vehicles! The Dunecrawler leg assembly is a very versatile platform, and I love the variety that you're getting with the assembly variations on top!

Thanks DV8, the dunecrawler platform is so versatile it's great. Props to GW.

And then from the fog of inactivity.... as they say, Fureans Walks:

Progress:

Got my first painting project for Titanicus underway, a Warlord for the Tiger Eyes.

WIP obviously. If anyone has any comments or suggestions I'd be happy to hear, particularly if you have your own Fureans!

Nothing to add yet except liking the bright yellow. And that seeing it with the empty head socket makes me want to get one and fill it with tentacles......

Update: Still Alive. Lightbox has been deluged by WIP conversions.

Next up: .....haunted imperial guard?

Hark, a standard bearer appears:
