I really enjoy the fluff of Kastelans. Part of it is that they are so old and ancient that they must be loaned out because so few are left. I run 4 in my army and this is my latest. Aladothris 8-Maximal was lost in service in the Ghoul Stars Explorator Crusade but he is back!

Things I need to finish,

Basing
Rust weathering around the rivets
Shine/glow on face screen. It looks dull and I have no idea how to make it seem like it has a shine (please help if you know how)

Please critique!

This looks really good. I like the repaired/replaced arm. Keep us updated with pics!

Going to be trying some typhus corrosion tonight to get some rust around the rivets

**thekerrick**

Base and some weathering. First attempt at corrosion so not sure how well it turned out

Edit: Forgot to add pictures.

**djdutton**

It's a good paintjob and I think the weathering turned out well, maybe just drybrush on a little of that red-brown color of the base onto the sides of the feet to represent the dirt and dust coating it. Still, its a great job and an underrated model I believe

**oldravenman3025**

Nice work on the 'bot, OP.

Now, I want one.

**thekerrick**

Thanks everyone! I think they are definitely underrated models. They are a blast to paint and actually fairly easy due to large flat surfaces. A lot of people hate them but when they are out on a table, fully painted along with the Kataphrons and my dominus they looked awesome. He also took down a knight in my doubles tourney last weekend!

Here is the other one I did from the codex to go with him.
