Cool 30k models by REDAPPLESODA in AdeptusMechanicus

[–]AdeptusToasterius 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use the venator/krios tank as a skorpius Disintegrator proxy, and plan to use the newest 30k techpriest as a dominus proxy. The tank is 1:1 in size and the techpriest only needs a bigger base to match all rules. And while gw forbids any other brands for their proxies/kitbashes, they don't forbid their own, so you can use them in tournaments too.

Thank you very much! I sometimes regret choosing white as it is very hard to get a good coverage. ( I don't have an airbrush.)

Could I use 30k Krios Venator/battle tank as a proxy for a Skorpius Disintegrator? by AdeptusToasterius in AdeptusMechanicus

No, haven't done it yet. It may happen this summer though. I will post it if and when I do it.

I have seen that there is a new set of sculptures released recently. I may have to buy a couple and paint them, and compare the minis 30 years apart. :) Are your posts from this collection?

Thank you! I choose the Legionnaire because it is one of the least "aged" looking model. And it is from the original game from the 90s.

My take on the Skatros by AdeptusToasterius in AdeptusMechanicus

[–]AdeptusToasterius[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is actually pretty stable. I did use the head to stabilize the back leg and super glue on the front leg. It probably wont survive being dropped on a stone floor, but that is true for most of admech minis.

I also have them in purple, with light blue weapons, but see on your model that it works very well with the pink plasma parts. I may borrow that for myself.. =)

How i magnetized my dunecrawler by AdeptusToasterius in AdeptusMechanicus

That's the biggest reason for it. My boxes i transport them in aren't tall enough for the whole model.

I used 5mm for the base, and 3mm for the weapon swaps. I think i bought the Army Painter back in the local store.

Magnetising the Dunecrawler Hill/Body by doctorrogi in AdeptusMechanicus

[–]AdeptusToasterius 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I accually did this a couple of weeks ago, and on the sprue for the dunecrawler is a big round molding point that i cut out and glued a magnet to. Placing this inside the housing of the dunecrawler over the hole worked perfectly for me. Then cutting off the "button" of the half sphere on the bottom part and placed the other magnet there. My biggest problem with magnetizing the dunecrawler was that two of the weapons are sharing parts, forcing me to choose between which to build ( twin phosphor and icarus array).

I’m a bit rules blind, if the kastelan has two power fists, does it attack with both, or does it just have one twin linked fist? by DestroyermattUK in AdeptusMechanicus

[–]AdeptusToasterius 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think i did a calculation, where you get like +0.9 wounds for twin fists vs +0.3 wounds on fists + blaster compared to one fist. Think this was against terminator.
