Thx lads. Really liking the scheme. Dark gritty grimy etc. Finish it up this week and get to work on those poor neglected Harlequins lol

The dragoon is looking good, I really like the colour scheme you have gone with, it's a bold choice going so dark but I think if you get it right, it works well.

Cheers CB. Wanted to go all dark and gloomy. Just kinda hits the ideas/images I've had of the AdMech better than having them all clean bright reds n creams. Think I'll (eventually) build up a whole AdMech force from this forgeworld. May skip on the Nannybots though until I figure out a good conversion fix for them. The Freeblade knight will fit in but contrast nicely with the force too I reckon

Tickitytock - nearly done. Loved painting this fella

That is looking epic!

Just finishing him up the now. bit of weathering and he'll be online (jayz, that was so much funnier in my head )

Dragoon is all done. Loving the spindly legged fella. Photos tomorrow. Need to break out the camera and lights and after a couple of brews ...... Not gonna happen the night ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ
Back painting the harlies now for this months comp but had to take a wee break to clip, clean and dry fit this fella. He. Is. Awesome. If you haven't picked one up. Get one!!!!!! Without a doubt my fig/sculpt of the year. The details and concept behind him is just beautiful. Can't wait to get busy on him.

What a wonderful Plog. Subbed! Really good color scheme btw.

Cheers Stormwall Lotta stuff coming up in this one over the next while.....skits, dominus and of course the freeblade (which I really gotta get back to). Really happy with the colour scheme. Downloaded the AdMech codices and ....just really wasn't feeling any of the colur schemes.....just didnt sit right with what I'd always had in mind of the cogboys. Solution - make my own forgeworld and colour scheme. Looking forward to putting it down on a squad of skits now

There we - got the camera and some new lights I got up and running this morning and finally got the Dragoon photo'd. Repainted the lance first though; I'd gone with another mode at first but it was kinda bugging me so I redid it. Much happier now!! Overall - soooooo happy with this guy! Anyways - here's the snaps, hope you like him and my new copy of Space Hulk has just been delivered so i'm off to tear that open and feast on all it's lovely Hulky glory lol

Wow ... amazing. Perfectly matched color scheme, clean and fine painting, great atmosphere ... in one word Awesome

Superb. The lance came out really well

Thx verymuch folks very happy withthe end result. looking forward to growing this wee admech contingent. Lance is defintely better now that what i had before. less is sometimes defintely more

Stunning! I'm amazed at how you can paint so many styles so well; I'd never guess that someone who painted a mini as clean and smooth as your Eldar stuff could do just as good a job with dirty, gritty, subdued AdMech.


And now Space Hulk, possibly the best minis ever committed to plastic...

Cheers Para Trying to catch up on a lot of diff techniques and stuff as I just got back into it last December. Each new fig I do I try and focus on something else I need to practice/learn/get right etc etc. Seems to be working out ok lol
The Space Hulk figs are unreal. Seriously gorgeous stuff. Knock the socks off the 1st edition figs that I had many many moons ago. Too much plastic crack in my house!!!!!!!!

Fantastic work, It's nice to see a different paint scheme on the Mechanicus.
I look forward to seeing how the Dominus comes out.

Cheers hk - really really looking forward to getting on to him and his ranger bodyguard. GW really came up with the goods with these admech sculpts. Not 100% on the kastelans though..lol. That Dominus though - he's gonna be a treat to paint Harlies first though ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

think I need another cabinet though o.O

The finished dragoon looks great, I love the dark blue screens and the blue power cells, they compliment the grey and the atmosphere very nicely. Looking forward to see what you do with the magos.

Cheers CB. Looking foward to getting onto the Magos too. Few other things up first. Spent the whole weekedn clipping, trimming and building all the Space Hulk figs! Lot of 'em. Lovely figs, even for blood angels lol

Can we expect a new blog for the Space Hulk stuff, or will you be adding to an existing one?

Either way, can't wait to see what you do with them!

Probably (yet another) new plog as I like 'trying' to keep things organised (ha). Have a colour scheme pretty much figured out for the stealers so will prbably get a test model done soonish. The 'stealers from the boxed set are fantastic - all the bits of scenery they're clinging to and the poses and that. stunning stuff. really beat the 1st ed stuff to ribbons! So much stuff to get busy on now. 'Least I finally made a start on the harlies for this months comp. They're main priority now. Next month is gonna be really AdMech though - more on the Freeblade, start the techpriest and the squad of skitarii I (shouldn't really have) bought!!!! The only thing worse than having too much plastic crack, is not having any at all!! Pretty sure that was Oscar Wilde (ahem...cough, cough )

Awesome stuff januine! I am really liking the color scheme for the ad mech, and the osl is perfect!

Cheers Ustrello - glad you like him

That strider is absolutely fantastic! Love the alt scheme and event the alternate base colour, feels like they're on the moon

ta very much fella. wanted that nice dark grey barren landscape kinda colour scheme. His forgeworld is in eternal twilight, hence the blue colour to the inside of the robes while the landscape is a barren grey husk which they show in their outer robes and machines armour plates. Makign up some fluff for that forgeworld at the mo. Will eventually have a whole admech contingent done up in the same scheme....eventually...... lol

Back home in Ireland after a lovely week in Italy for the honeymoon. And what's awaiting when I get home but this lovely little bundle of goodies. Kastellax with the coolest blades ever! Can't wait to get back to Korea and get all painty painty on the las. The detail of gorgeous and I'm damned if I can find a single air bubble. Good show for my first ever FW resin fig

Great work on the Dragoon mate (i know i'm a bit late lol)

Looking forward to the Castellax, those are some impressive models FW did for Mechanicum

Keep it up!

Cheers fella. was really happy how the dragoon turned out. Got some weathering powders with the Castellax, so I'll add a bit to that dragoon too. That'll be the colour scheme for all the admech I'm planning on doing. The new GW stuff is lush and FW has some gorgeous figs too for it. My wallet shudders at the thought!!!
