Now this thing, looks positively cuthuluesque.
Now, is it just a model made or are you intending to actually run it as a giant Chaos spawn.

And finally finished the arena, just in time for the LoER deadline, damn that was a hard one, lesson learned I guess, next time I will not be attempting a 80 by 80 cm build...

There are definitely places that would justify more touch ups, and I clearly gave up on more details that I initially thought of, but it is at a state were I feel happy about it. It will be nice to work on something else too I reckon !











Now this, this i like.
Soon you can play an apocalypse game over a whole dark mechanicum battlefield the seize off a room!
Impressive.

Could be interesting yes, if you have further ideas on that I'd be interested . Tbh I already kind of thought the thing semi-skeletal, with parts that are but metal limbs, while other are covered in demon flesh.


You could also make guts?
Plastic straws?
Cables etc that drop out of it? Maybee a nurgling or two could be in there?

I like it very much, gotta ask though, how did you build your knights exactly?
And would you consider it possible to make them cuthuluesque looking with cables?
Made in ch

 KernelTerror wrote:
Thanks a lot !

How I built these knights ? Well almost "entirely from scratch" would be the short answer ^^ !

Otherwise although all three are quite different, there are some common patterns... Each legs is for example are all built around a wooden skeleton in each time two custom carved bits. They are then glued to soft plastic component around which the foot is build, making it easy to then screw the foot into the base.
Legs are covered in shields made from PVC tubes and finally screwed using long woodworking screws into the pelvic part.

Then regarding the torso, they are all build around a solid central piece, respectively a car engine part, a power sander and a lamp, and on two specrical parts for the shoulders, for the first two there were salvaged on a giand kinder easter egg, and on the last one from a funnel.

Then of course loads of random bits, resin, clay, wiring, glue and some bits here and there.

The cuthuluesque bit sounds very feasible yes in case you are going for the classical tentacle face I would suggest starting with some very thick gardening wiring, that you can use as tutor for plants, and start gluing different kind of wires around that.

Sounds like a great project for you army, let me know if I can provide more details on how mine went.


I will probably get myself two off the big renegade knights, one will be normal everyday use the other though will have his arms and face probably cabled.
Atm i am Stuck at the drawing board though, maybee i will just do some smaller hellverins instead.

That new entry looks more like a Dark Mechanicum Sales building.

You gotta have a PR department it seems, even in the Eye off terror

@Not Online : Would you be interested in our insurance plan for defilers ? It comes with a 12 month heretek support plan and a free reaper autocannon.


only if I get 10 reaper chaincannons instead of the reaper.

@Not Online ! 15 chaincannons and you insure your knights with us ?

The knight's legs are now painted !
Only the torso/head to go !


I am sold on it
Well on both.

Now just missing some brass Accessoires and he would be the perfect khornate knight i'd imagine.

Something like this? But chaosified?

Something like that would make for great terrain imo.

The type of gun I love, but that might start causing some storage issue, and I still do not have a durable storage plan for my arena either...
Maybe a minotaur artillery would be nice ? Or might be worth looking at the old Epic vehicles, there is always some inspiration there...


Ayy, actually wasn't there a nurgle apocalypse unit that was basically a driving siegetower?
Minotaur would be great though.

Oooh, yes the nurgle plague tower would definitely be fun to build...
And in terms of absurd artillery, the doom blaster could be a challenge ^^


Altough a basic minotaur might be a challenge for you, would completly go out of your style.

Ahaha, weeeeell, to me Minotaur just means two earthshakers on something, could be a tank, or a bunch of tentacles and rotten flesh...
Nurgle tower would need a chassis though...


Normally the Baneblade gets used for it
