Danger Rod back again with an update of my 30k Mechanicum Army that I was building in my first entry. Still waiting for the Mechanicum Taghmata red book to arrive before I can actually start formalizing a list, but until then it’s painting time. I will mention now that Massaen and myself have decided to up the points for our first game from 750pts to 1000pts per side…fully painted

I’ve managed to build my remaining Thallax, Castellax and Archmagos Draykavac (many magnets were used…)

 

Here’s some WIP shots of the army so far. I was playing around with a silvery/grey metallic theme for the armored panels but after some samples it just didn’t work with the Balthasar Gold coloured exoskeleton. So I went with a Khorne Red, which actually ties in with my Imperial Knights army.

Thallax Cohorts

 

Castellax Battle Automata

 

I’ve also at this stage decided to switch to the Magos Dominus with Rad-Cleanser and Machinator array as my HQ choice. I love the model and his super creepy cybernetic enhanced body. Painting him is a real challenge, theirs so much detail for such a small model!

 

So, the Thallax and the Castellax are pretty much complete, I just need to throw some weathering powders at them.

If anyone has any questions about any of the painting or modelling techniques or the transfer applications used here, feel free to ask us!
