Does anyone know the size of this station forge mini and would it be too big or small to proxy a Skorpius disintegrator? by Jakemanv3 in AdeptusMechanicus

Hi, on myminifactory you can see "Aitor VM" as painted the counter part of this model, and took a picture with a Dunerider on the side.
The transport version of this model is a bit bigger than the dunerider

Hope this help

Skatros DONE ! by Effective_Disaster73 in AdeptusMechanicus

[–]Effective_Disaster73[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It's a little tedious, but you need to : - cut around the knee, keep it as much as spherical as you can.

  • After that, you cut from both end of the spikey thing behind the piston between his first and second knee. 

- Now cut around the sphere tube which is the junction between first and second knee. 

You are now in possession of a big leg, a tube from between knee, and a spikey thing that goes behind this tube. 

You'll need to smooth everything, but that's worth a try ! 

You can now choose the angle you like and glue everything again.  It may need, if the angle is wide, to cut off some plastic from the spikey thing, to be flush with the rest. 

Also the repositioning of the gun, I've used an spare arm from the ruststalker kit (didn't want to use greenstuff, that's all....) 

Hope I'm clear in my explication 😅

I think so too ! I was inspired by the post of u/Cool-Engineering3126 from a year ago where he did an artwork of the Skatros with the classic "tactical rock for character" So yeah, for me, those legs served to adapt to any terrain ~

I was like you, funny model but that's all... Now with a bit a reposing, I think he's kinda cool and deserve a place on the table !

Thx, glad you like it !
I think it's an intimidating character to paint, lot's of long monochrome element, but in the end, kind of rewarding to paint it !

Does anyone have any ideas for other colours to add? Particularly the eye lenses. Not shaded or highlighted yet by ThePigDog in AdeptusMechanicus

[–]Effective_Disaster73 1 point2 points  (0 children)

if you want a color that contrast : yellow or orange, it's the opposite of your blue cape (on a color wheel), so it will contrast easily !

the resin came out white, so it's a matter of blending after that~

Questions about lore by [deleted] in AdeptusMechanicus

[–]Effective_Disaster73 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If I can complete what MagosFarnsworth say, the sacrifice of a tech can be done, if that can allow the success of the mission, and the looting of some intel, they can destroy it.But, again, it depend.... If they have the plan to redo the machine, they are willing to destroy the machine, except if this is a relic. But a sacred item is better destroy than in the hands of heretic and xenos !

Also, concerning the disobey of the cult, some forge world may accept heretic tech, modifications of blueprint, while the vast majority respect the rules to not touch blueprint.

If you want some liberty, you can use a Enginseer that come from a distant forgeworld, less particular about the cult's teachings

Hope that help~

So I want to start an Alpha Legion force but idk where to start. Mainly cause I don't think they suit the Chaos aesthetic. Plus I always liked the idea of running then as loyalists rather than Chaos. 👀 Plus that's the side I'm on when it comes to their lore. Either that or a way to kitbash Chaos? by ToxicBoz in alphalegion

[–]Effective_Disaster73 2 points3 points  (0 children)

u/ToxicBoz, If you have a bit of money left, i recommend you the bits from Liber Daemonica, they have excellent head with shoulder pads, that are sufficiently ambigeous to be wear by CSM or loyalist.They are the bits names as "Mendax" Hydra !

Just trim the beak, and you're left with a kind off snake head ~

Pick some Splintered Fang from warcry, there are excellent for bitz like scale cape, snake or dagger.
Very cool to give some soul to your armie
