Talons of the Emperah - Vexilus Praetor

I returned to my Custodes again, because there will be a big battle with my friends at the end of the year in which I want to field them. To be honest, I struggled with painting the gold and getting it right in the past. It tuned out to be too dark and bronze-ish. Moreover, painting four, five layers of different metallic colours took much time. That's why I tried something new. Using a spray can gold colour from a DIY-store, Casanadora Yellow Shade and Agrax Earthshade Wash delivered good results. Adding some details lead to this:

I am very satisfied with it and it took such little time and effort. What do you think?

Adeptus Titanicus: Reaver Battle Titan

The first titan for Adeptus Titanicus is painted and ready for battle. It is a Reaver Battle Titan of the Legio Gryphonicus! 

I decided on Legio Gryphonicus for two reasons. First, I wanted to use different colours as the ones, I normally use for painting my 40k armies. Second, I wanted to have a connection between the Legio and my Tallarn Desert Raiders or Iron Hands. As it happened to be, Legion Gryphonicus took part on the Battle of Tallarn and has a mainly greyish colour scheme. What a nice coincidence and easy choice to make.    

The weapons are magnetized by the way, in case I want to change the current loadout in the future. Next up will be an Imperial Knight detachment from one of the two dedicated Knight Houses - Hawkshroud or Coldshroud.

 

Adeptus Titanicus: Civitas Imperialis - Desert Outpost

As soon as the first rumours of the game Adeptus Titanicus appeared, I was hooked. I always liked games in a smaller scale like "Epic: Armageddon" or "Aeronautica Imperialis", but sadly I never played it myself. Not this time!

But first, I focused my attention on the new terrain to get into the right mood. Hope you like it.

There will be titans.

Soon...
