Adeptus Mechanicus CTF 2.00019122014

[Skrall]

Later this year i am going to compete in my first 2000 point tournament. For this i'm going to build a 2000 point army of the Adeptus Mechanicus using codex;tau and Codex;necrons for the force. The army list is currently being re-written and modified continuously until i'm satisfied.

Currently however i know will need several models regardless, such as two riptides, a commander and at least 3 battlesuit models. For this I turn to Forgeworld Horus Heresy line.

Initial model; Magos Dominus with twin linked plasmarifle. Here is the current WIP;






As you can see i've got a fair amount of work left to do even before i add the weapons. The next two models are earlier in the painting phase. They certainly need to be brought into the grimdark to match the first marine, while the top magos need to brought to the same dust.

Time for the update, with actual painted miniatures that are finished. So i hope at least.

Some of you may remember this model, i pre-ordered him a long while back.

Now i've started painting him.



What do we think?

I think, continue! Lovely stuff to see, those Mechanicum units just ooze grimdark.

Very cool! I just love the worn look the weathering gives these guys.

[Skrall]

Thank you guys! I've got a delivery of more ad-mec on the way.

In the teamtime, The Warmaster....

Well that's one down....





Think the Thanatar is going pretty well. The next model is a tester for a future plan and being used for my infantry in this force.




I've got a lot of work cut out for me to try and finish this army in the next month. Oh well....

Good stuff, mate! Love the look on the models, and I'm particularly fond of the big guy's left shoulder pad.

I've got my Arch Magos sitting on my painting table with a couple parts painted and 10 Thralls (Bought before the price drop! > ) are primed and ready to go! I'm excited to see how your army goes, and I'll no doubt include my own.

But that Thanatar is the whole reason I got into this army, I absolutely love that model and I think yours is simply excellent! Really gets me truly inspired to start painting, so off I go!
