I love the use of the yellow/black striping, gives them an awesome industrial look. The servitor looks like something out of Bioshock.

Cheers cap! currently working on more traitors by liberally cutting apart the cultist doubles and cadian stuff biggrin
How are the traitors who were WIP on the first page, are they painted and based yet?

about that...

these guys are piling up on them xD I'm trying to get a load made up first so i can batch black-spray a load in one go
Ah, gotcha. How many are you going for in the current batch?

well i counted earlier and im up to almost 4 ten-man squads now, thats including the already-painted dudes. so, probably 25 or so?? got an Iron Warriors conversion pack earlier while at my local hobby shop so the rest of my ten-man chaos unit can be finished some point (though im going to buy some instant mold to cast more of a couple of the bits first)

aha well i woke up like an hour ago, after going to sleep at half ten this morning (now 8.45pm) xD fun times.

good news/bad news time:
the good is i found the Techpriest i ordered has arrived so ive converted him and am about to spray him + loads of the troops

the POSSIBLE bad is depending on when the spray dries i may not update tonight, BUT there is now another conversion to show off (with the 2nd ogryn-servitor (heavy bolter)) when I do get the photos taken and up on here smile

::Edit::
Sprayed biggrin i'll try to get pics soon when its dry

Army Snaps!!! Techpriest!!! Almost Legal Army!!!


Dark Mechanicus Techpriest + Praetorian Heavy-Weapon Servitors:

Only a simple conversion, carefully sawing the axe head off and replacing it with a trimmed up Ogre sword to make the scythe (im really getting my moneys worth with these servitors!) but I thought with the dark paintjob it certainly didn't look very Imperial anymore


The Traitor Guard Pile:

All the guardsmen ive been mentioning the last week, plus the ones with FW bits shown already, all basecoated and some with a couple other colours, still all unfinished however


Obligatory Army Shots:

Everything so far, with the Thunderbolt on the bed because the bedside tables a little too small for this xD


And after counting, the army stands at about 63 models including the thunderbolt + sentinels. not brilliant, but not bad for just a couple of weeks work biggrin (now to get them painted!) going out to a local wargaming club tonight, and since they do 10% off Games Workshop i'll see about maybe getting a Hellhound or a Leman Russ Demolisher kit while i'm there.

Also for another platoon of guard, I'd like to go nurgle themed. so far my ideas include a Conscript unit of Zombies, and a Banewolf themed on the Plaguereaper (Nurgle Baneblade), so when I get the chance to get hold of a mass tonne of Mantic zombies on the cheap, expect to see me start that platoon alongside the main Khorne ones


For now, to make this a legal army I need:

2 Command Squads - one for each platoon
Another unit of Iron Warriors
an Iron Warriors Warpsmith for their HQ

so, post thursday game-night, had a 2-on-2 game with my not QUITE legal army (which i realised with most of the upgrades modelled on them, is already about 790 points of stuff :O including the Thunderbolt too cos I have the rules for it biggrin )

Traitors and Necrons vs Tau and Salamanders
Victory: Tau

though we lost, my model of the match goes to either the Autocannon sentinel (the unpainted one) which took out both the Tau players hammerhead and skyray (before he massed all his fire on it crying ) or the Primaris Psyker, which took out a full squad of kroot over the game with psychic powers and making the last 3 models run off the board 3nodding

in modelling news, after talking to the Shop owner about Instantmold last week, he looked into it and decided to start stocking it, since i suggested it he sold it me on a discount for just £8 (instead of £12) for a packet, and threw in £6 worth of green stuff too! I'm a happy rob after tonight biggrin

There are unsettling rumours about low moaning coming from where the new conscript platoon is stationed across the other side of the camp... one of the troops even swore he saw one eating another. a couple of the other Khorne traitors have disappeared too. it cant be just a co-incidence, can it?


(pics to follow soon wink )

"Those damned fools. After the last men to check out the new meat didnt return, a pair of them went to see whats up themselves. took an imaging-servitor with them too, last shot we got from it was this. What in the unholy gods is the captain playing at creating these monsters!?"

Yep, started my Zombie Conscript unit, theres now a second one painted up too since these were taken. the zombie bits are Mantic Zombies, cos i'm just too cool for GW ones cool

The dude with mixed-paintjobs torso is just painted green too by the way, however the one with the Vox caster, has the first of my new cast torso's, made with Instant Mold (tutorial to follow when I can get any decent photos for it. I've tried two or three times now and each time the light catches too much on the clear Instant Mold gel stare )

as a comparison of the end result however:

personally I think the details pretty crisp on the cast ones biggrin obviously its not perfect, and really thin peices or awkward shapes are VERY difficult to cast with it, but for simple peices like extra torso's, heads, heavy weapons, etc its perfect for making a few extra biggrin

If I may throw out one minor complaint here: The Mantic zombie arms are awfully spindly when attached to the Cadian torsos like that. Are you going to hide that underneath more of those shoulder guards?

That said, nicely done, same on the casting! Can't wait to see the whole army done and having a few more fights in. I love me an army with a theme running through it! emotion_yatta
