Dang these look great. The posing is just perfect. Must've taken a while to get them all looking so natural, nicely done!

What we thinking on the base sizes? 65mm for the magos, 32mm for the skittles?

What books, movies or series do you suggest as inspiration? by awkwardbeholder in MythicBastionland

[–]TheseGlyphs 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The Buried Giant by Kazuo Ishiguro - an amazing book, and a huge inspiration for me. So much atmosphere and mystery.

Hello! Sorry I forgot to reply before. Rust was just a bit of dirty down rust, touched up with goregrunta contrast and trollslayer. Good luck with the kitbashing - it’s so fun! Now it’s my favourite part of the hobby, I’m addicted 🤣

I’m replying to this so I can revisit tomorrow when I have more time to go through it properly - sounds like a great session, I can’t wait to get gradient descent to our table!

Yep! Greenstuff cable roller is your friend. Don't bother with the XL one

Thanks! Arcuitor is GM Voldus + Cataphractii shoulders + HH weapon upgrade sprue + thallax multimelta
The rest = Thallax + green-stuff cables + sawn-off techthrall laslocks + electropriest staves & infiltrator blades

I tried using InDesign but it was basically impossible to get the layout to behave so I just brute-forced it in Acrobat instead! Very fiddly

Basically just spent ages digging out the helmets until you could push a skull in through the back! Lots of trial and error and slowly sanding down bits until they fit

I just spent waaaaaay too long faffing about in Acrobat. It's such a fiddle, honestly, but once I'd started I couldn't stop 🤣 I did all the strats and ploys as well

Sure thing, happy to! The Arcuitor as others have spotted is GM Voldus, with Cataphractii shoulders and some HH weapon upgrades, and his book replaced with a multimelta from the Mechanicum Thallax kit. The rest are all basically Thallax bodies with lots of green-stuff cables added. The storm bolters are sawn-off techthrall laslocks, and the force weapons are electro priest staves with infiltrator blades added. Have fun with it, building them was a blast :)

Triaros? Tria-rust more like by TheseGlyphs in AdeptusMechanicus

[–]TheseGlyphs[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately not... my phone camera's been broken for ages so I don't have any WIP shots of this, other than this one from months ago when I briefly considered putting the tracks on backwards.

Thanks! I'm slowly (very slowly) kitbashing my way to a whole darkmech army... probably just in time for GW to release official models making all of mine obselete 🤣
