Up first, WhaleMusic360's Minotaurs LAnd Raider Redeemer, with THE MOST BAD-ASSED TECHMARINE EVER. "Drive Me Closer, I'm going to leap out of this Land Raider and rip that guy's throat out!"
I think it is important to note that not only does it have a full interior, and everything is detachable/magnetized...but he also painted bottom details, like the bronze eagles on the tracks. I am very, very impressed. But now I need a name for this BEAST. 
There were a few things that fell off during shipment, they have been repaired, and the LR is ready for some ass-kicking.
Now, what next? How about "I burned an entire pot of "Baal Red" Wash"? Yup, I sure did...
All pictures zoomable in the gallery, as always.
--B.
PS: Best. Pintle-Mounted Storm Bolter Ever. EVAR.

A couple of small tracks fell off, and one of the Flamestom Cannon 'shields' fell off, and his power fiste fell off. All very, very minor.
It appears to be a plastic Terminator Storm Bolter with a single Crux Terminatus on the cowling, but f'ed if I know where it came from.

Well, I didn't get as far as I'd liked, but today was a good day. Ran errands, I'm ready for my next projects, and I have clean laundry. Good day, right? Right.
Here's a shot of six massive missiles, in progress. Note: Holding a 40K scale "Weapon" that I could reasonably, actually cause harm with? Yeah. That's a spicy missile. And this thing packs six of them.
+++
Years of work. Months of planning. Decades of searching for the ancient STC that took him to the very halls of Ancient Terra. Weeks of interruptions by that unbearable Tyrant. Days of programming cogitators and logic matrices. Fourteen servitors destroyed, and an uncountable number of slaves died in the process. The slave corpses became fodder for the Arch-Magos' lessers to build more Servitors from, ensuring a near-endless supply of labor that would work until their second death. And sometimes their third.
Toward the end, the sound of bombardment and battle approached, sometimes distant, sometimes uncomfortably close. The Arch-Magos was assured that these great fortifications has stood since the time of the Horus Heresy, but that was cold comfort each time the floors shook and ceilings crumbled. Thank the Machine God nothing had happened in his area...to HIS work.
But the Great Project was done. Standing in the control room, Arch-Magos Falken inserted the final key, entering the final sequence while a choir of specifically-created Servitors chanted the sacred Rites of Awakening. A moment. Two Moments, nothing happened. A look of concern flashed across the Arch-Magos' face, before a sub-harmonic, undetectable by lesser beings, caused him to smile for the first time in a century.
On the small screen that connected the control room to the Machine Spirit within the Ordinatus, a line of text appeared.
"Hello, Magos Falken. Would you like to play a game?"
