So how's the view from top of that mountain, StatusJoe? That was one helluva climb. I was pretty sure you'd make your goal, but I can't believe you delivered it 18 days early! Heroic journey!

 

Corax looks awesome. I like that he's got his Primarch bling on, but you still made him look subdued as is appropriate for his fading into the background trick. Nice work! :tu:

 

And yeah, I'll see you at ETL. As soon as I finish this consul I'll be focused on planning, building, and priming for that.

StatusJoe, I think the only appropriate reaction is utter awe! Every time I look there is another stunning model from you.


Vykes, good job on the Alpha Legion.


As for my meager progress, I have finally got the Macrocarid done, only three more thanks to go, thankfully they are smaller.

JUST TWO WEEKS REMAINING FOR THE EVENT TO CLOSE!!!

 

OK everybody, just two weeks to the end of the event - so start wrapping it up! :)

 

I see the fantastic work coming from all directions, but I'm really pressed for time right now - so I'll be updating sometime early tomorrow....

@StatusJoe, dude, bravo. Seriously just exceptional drive mate. Definitely getting the King of Loyalty and Trechery for this'n, as that's just ludicrous and in the best way possible. My absolute highest regards, I just can't say it enough. I'm awed my man, just awed.

Trokair, that is absolutely awesome too. Heh, kinda love it. There's something about it really looking like the STC for a subterranean exploratory vehicle from the first expansions. It's a really cool idea for a macrocarid, I might have to think about something like that for Iron Warriors exploration groups with Termites too.

Alright, leeeeets see. Just getting the metals on Alfy and the last Centurion but I did something still 30K related.

More out of competition stuff

But I do have a question for ya lovely lot: I kinda need an opinion for a Praetor for Sons of Horus that's almost done. I need a head option, and I'm kinda at a loss.

Thank you Phatsquirre1

 

 

Thank you Vykes, go right ahead. I had originally intended the rock grinder parts to sit in the space where the assault ramp is (a bit like the armored Proteus heavy bolter) and have the Dozer blade out in front. However the Rock grinder parts proved a little too wide and I did not trust my ability to cut into the rounded sections to make it fit. Instead I eventually flied the Land raiders orientation and doubled upon the Dozer plate. I also used the internal engine plate on the outside just to cover the gab where the ramp would have been.  

 

As for the Praetor head, One or Two. I think it very much depends on where you want to emphasis of the models movement.

 

 

Lord Ranulf, looking so good there. The effect on the sword where it enters that poor Iron Hand is a nice touch.

Thanks a ton, mates! maaaan, long long road and still gonna be more work.

You know, I do like the effect that the reversed hull has, Trokair. The whole thing blends really well and it looks unique but still definitely STC. Flipping the interior engine plate to the exterior is pretty genius in keeping a guide and making it look even more Mechanicum aligned. Seriously good idea there!

Thanks a ton Lord Ranulf, dude, that's a killer Praetor. Jealousy, thy name is Vykes. -laughs- And I feel more glee than I should at seeing an Iron Warrior... they caused me much consternation a few weeks back. Seriously spectacular work.

Well, mine's still very much WIP but I'm down to just two, now. Hopefully done tomorrow or the day after! Gotta decide if I want Dynat on his display base or if he should be on one of the fitting ad mech sandy ones like the Catii. Same question on Alfy there, too.

-laughs- thanks dude.  It wasn't too hard.  Alpha Legion metallics are neeeeaaaaaat because the inks and washes do a ridiculous amount of work with that texture.  

 

I still want to do some proper aqua coloured ones, so yeah. Gonna try that for ETL I think.

As for me. Almost done Dynat, just some facial work, antenna, few tiny bits and pieces.

@Trokair, dude you gotta feed that Explorator some rocks! That thing is waaaaay too shiny. :lol: Just kidding. I really like that thing. You mind if I borrow the idea and sort of file off the serial numbers?

@Phatsquirre1... Alpharii? rofl, that's classic.

@Lord Ranulf, that's a handsome collection of traitor scum. ;) Your Praetor is exquisite!

@Vykes, Vykes, Vykes. *sigh* Man, haven't you run out of minis yet??? :) Beautiful work, as always, brother.

As for me, I'm getting close to done with my last unit. Here's a WIP of my Praevian, such as it is.

Nine days, you say, Lord Ranulf. -The whirring machinations resume- Nine days...

 

Hah, Fortis, ya got this!  ... There' something about the Praevian model that constantly reminds me of Marty McFly and I can't quite figure it out. But it does look great in Walltop Yellow!  Heh thanks a ton.  Hmm, y'know, thre's aaaaalways more models :P

@Richmarine, I know others have mentioned it but I have to repeat it. The blue on your Ultramarines is really impressive. It's the nicest I've ever seen.

Here's my Praevian done.

gallery_86689_11936_177511.jpg

Come on Loyalists, let's start rolling in those completions! There's the moral high ground to take. It's that hill right over there. Let's go!!!
