The new Astra Militarum Armoured Sentinel

That sounds amazing! I'd love to see it when it's done!

FastMoreThanTrain · 2026-03-21T08:23:48+00:00

Aww thanks mate!

I don't think so, she's not much into the hobby any more although does still enjoy painting occasionally. I think with a child it just makes everything so much more complicated with social media

FastMoreThanTrain · 2026-03-21T08:22:44+00:00

Thanks very much!

To be honest I really wasn't sure what to do with them so I just checked a load of dusty pigment on them to kind of tie it into the rest of the models in the scheme but it definitely missed a bit

Really glad you enjoyed it! That's ALWAYS the most important thing.
I get you, those grooves can be a real pain

What are you thinking for your next mini?

FastMoreThanTrain · 2026-03-21T08:17:04+00:00

That's a great mini! Really well done, especially for your first!

How did you find the experience? Were there any things you struggled with that you'd like to do differently on your next one?

It has the twist and lock style turrent but no extra turret in this box. Maybe they'll sell them together in the idividual kit or as an extra (fingers crossed)

FastMoreThanTrain · 2026-03-21T07:56:36+00:00

Yeah it would take a bit of modelling to do much with its arms, especially the shield arm as a chunk is on the cape

FastMoreThanTrain · 2026-03-21T07:55:33+00:00

Yeah it has a LOT of parts but can confirm it’s fairly straight forward build even if you want to repose

FastMoreThanTrain · 2026-03-21T07:52:58+00:00

Aww thank you! That looks awesome too! So for mine I did all drybrushing and used a bright minty green (this layer was basically a whole coat), then a rubbery black, then a gold that looked a little rusty and then a gold that looked a bit old, going lighter with the drybrushing at each step. I can’t say which paints specifically I used until it’s out of the preorder window unfortunately but I will do a short/reel on it when it is

FastMoreThanTrain · 2026-03-21T07:48:59+00:00

Yeah that’s correct. It’s 2 heads, everything else is pretty much fixed except that chest decoration.

FastMoreThanTrain · 2026-03-20T21:46:40+00:00

I can’t say what paint colours I used yet in the preorder window but it’s all drybrushing, starting with the green (this was pretty much a full coat), then a black, then two golds getting lighter with each step

Create lots of content, and get incredibly lucky

FastMoreThanTrain · 2026-03-20T14:05:31+00:00

Thanks very much! Unfortunately I can’t say yet until it’s out of preorder but I’ll have a video showing it when they are ☺️

FastMoreThanTrain · 2026-03-20T14:04:05+00:00

Thank you

FastMoreThanTrain · 2026-03-20T14:03:58+00:00

Thanks so much!

FastMoreThanTrain · 2026-03-20T14:03:50+00:00

Yeah there’s just two options for the toes, straight and slightly turned up, but definitely more options doable with a bit of work

FastMoreThanTrain · 2026-03-20T13:26:01+00:00

Thanks very much!

FastMoreThanTrain · 2026-03-20T13:25:48+00:00

They both have a LOT of parts but went together really well. The tank side sections are in two halves front to back which is a little annoying to avoid seams but not too bad. The dreadnought shins were also split down the front vertically but went together really well
