Mechanicum - A little distraction, if you will...


As a distraction from the enormity that is the Warlord Titan Build, I recently finished off these crazy dudes. The Scylla Guardian-Automata Coven are so incredibly Blanchian that I knew I had to have them as soon as I saw them. It is surprising, therefore that it took me this long to paint them. In order to stop them lingering, I rushed the details a bit, but they still fit in solidly with the rest of my Mechanicum/Adeptus Mechanicus forces. Here's a look at them individually (two views per automata). And yes, they will be a pain in the butt to transport!





I also located the mechadendrites for my Myrmidon Destructors, so these guys are now wrapped up too.



I have a couple of other things to show this week, and hopefully there'll be time to put together a post about the Warlord : )

These bases, as always (for my Mechanicum forces) are from the Tech-Deck range by Dragon Forge.

Cheers
Dave

  1. Nice work. I've completed 4/8 of these guys so far, and I can confirm they are a pain to transport! Take glue with you!!

    1. Thanks, GG. I'm not sure how far I'll ever try to transport them, but will pack glue each time : )

  3. it's funny how only now they can make miniatures which can live up to the Blanchian style. I never appreciated his style as a kid but as an adult I realise just how mind blowing his style is.

    I REALLY like the new sculpts!

    1. I think there has always been an influence there, but perhaps older, less-refined production methods had kept them from reaching their full potential. So many of there recent releases have been fantastic : )
