How many times was "engine kill!" yelled during the game?

Not often enough, given the difference between the kills it would have been somewhat gauche of me to do so everytime a chainfist uppercut ripped another machine in half in one while my poor doggos still clung to life though shot into criticals on pretty much every location

Hounds just wouldn't die today, but the Hound of the match would still be Cineres Immensi. Our twinferno barbeque master redlined through the table and singlehandedly immobilized a Reaver in place before kicking it to death next turn.

Wish me luck everyone, I printed up an Imperator and now have to actually paint the thing to a decent standard. Any suggestions on how to support it so the weight of the torso doesn't make it constantly want to break at the waist and leg sections? I'm guessing pinning and some gorilla glue might be my best bet...

Crikey hes a big lad!

1850pts Legio Venator vs Legio Oberon on the new battle mat.

I really like the subdued orange colour on those titans, looks simple but very striking!

Looks like I have a race to get my Emperor titan finished first now as well! I prefer the bastion legs on that one to the pieces I printed, is it from a different file or did you (or your opponent) just tweak the files afterwards?

I think he's mixing and matching from different files or remixes of files which is why the scale is so big, I'm impressed he managed to get it to fit on the warlord base

Battlegroup ready for the biggest game I've yet to play, 2500pts. My buddy will have his warmaster as well, should be a good fight. Gave the big guy plasma rifling, will let'm push reactor to boost short and long range of plasma by 6 inches. Stoked.

Many moons ago I've designed some spiked trophy poles for Vanguard Miniatures, allowing people to turn their Loyalists vehicles and other warmachines into something...less loyal. They've finally been released!


Spiked Trophy Poles With Impaled Elites Helmets

Spiked trophy poles sporting impaled Elites helmets.

Set contains:

3 x trophy pole sprues, 10 poles on each sprue

30 poles in total

With these Forge-Fanes I hope to have enough interesting terrain pieces to equip my own table for good looking terrain sized for AT. The buildings are constructed with building blocks from Grimdark Terrain. I have a handful of GW plastic buildings and will build some rocks/hills as needed from XPS foam. Together with a red-desert game-mat this should be a fair representation of a battle fought in some less busy corner on the Forge-World Mars.

Looks good, what battle mat you thinkin of going with?

Technically, I already own one of these, which is why it's the background for my Iyanden vehicles in the picture below, but it's on loan to my tabletop club, so it's basically donated. ;-]

Nice deep martian red

Need some speakers?

Legio mortis players need those

Finally got the knight atrapos painted

Excellent stuff! Those knights and the little attendance vehicles (with crew!) look lovely.
Your attention to detail on some of this stuff is absolutely striking Crablezworth

Like the speakers too Malika! Think my Ork settlements will be appreciating some of those.

I've been expanding the speakers set...

Ork band would indeed rule! I can imagine those speakers might also come in handy when you want to build a Weirdboy Tower or something like that!

Goff rocker tower with weirdboy on the drums

I made and painted name plates for my titans. The name plates on the painting stick are for models with unfinished bases.

Opened up an Instagram and Facebook page for some of my Titanicus scaled (terrain) bits. Expect a shop in the coming weeks!

Nice, I'd love to see prints of some of the crates with food/goods in them. It'd be cool to make like a little market.

I hope to have the first items for sale in the first half of September. So those will be 4 types of crates, 2 types of barrels, and a random item here and there. After that it will most likely be some buildings and civilian aircraft.

I have finally finished my first of the new AT Titans. I have to say what a cracking kit, really shows how far the miniatures have come along over the years.
I've tried to copy the classic colour scheme (Legion Metalica/Iron Skulls).
Initially it's going to be used in Epic in support of Great Crusade-era World Eaters, but I have the AT Starter Set (as well as a very kind birthday gift of a Warmaster) so will hopefully get those painted up and have a go at AT at some point.

Behold, Castigator Rex !







Few more pics under the Spoiler Tags

Nice, looks super clean! Love the basing too with the road and streetlight.

Yea, mad props on the basing!

It's a simple, clean and good looking engine

Nice job on the stripes, Pacific.

Hiyo!

Finally, had the opportunity to take a proper family portrait of my legions both titanic and astartes! I present you, (almost) all of the currently painted Ashen Gods and the Death Guard in their 6 mm glory!












Hope you enjoy!

Now there's only about as much again, waiting on the shelves for their time to get processed as well...
