Hello everyone!
New edition, new army. That's what they say right?
First a little story about me, I'm a returning
40k player that started playing and collecting back in 3rd edition (Orks). Since then I had a couple of dark years and when I returned to the hobby I started playing Warhammer Fantasy 8th and then went on to other games such as Warmachine, Inifinity and Malifaux.
I made a quick dip into
40k with 6th but that didn't result to much.
Now with the release of 8th I'm excited to get back into the grimdark world of
40k again.
I've decided to go with the Adeptus Mechanicus since I love the model range and I've always been a fan of the weirder more disturbing parts of the empire (admech, inquisition etc.).
The theme for my army is that they are an exploratory force sent to a forrest planet to look for a lost artefact rumoured to be there. The army will showcase them tracking through the undergrowth of this lush forrest planet (think Endor).
It will be heavily Skitarii based, mostly because I like that part of the Mechanicus more but also because it makes sense thematically.
The color scheme is Mars, because that is how Admech always been presented to me and it's such an iconic and striking look
imo.
Well enough talking here's my first test model that I finished over the weekend.
Hope you like it and stay tuned!
