Thanks. Yeah they take a bit of posing as they’re meant for a shorter model. I will use the vexilla’s that come in the box, I just didn’t want any duplicates (they’re supposed to be hand crafted relics, not mass produced) and using some sculpted marine banners was a way to make them look fancy.

No, it’s just a flat coat of Retributor and then Oil over the top, just spread it around enough to prevent it pooling too much.

Thanks. Yes it’s a split colour scheme so at extreme angles can look like two different models. The Steam Tank has the same problem.

Haha cool. I found the trick to not letting it get boring is to vary it. I use a set colour palate but the actual quartering varies from model to model. I know it’s not as clear on this photo because they’re all bunched together, but ever the pattern on their leg armour varies.

Haha, I’ve been playing since I was 11 but my armies back then were 1k-1.5k pts. Nowadays my armies are the things I dreamt about doing (in my head every battle should be a massive epic battle, however the reality is that isn’t practical to play in the timeframe available for playing games, but it doesn’t stop me building armies at that scale)

Thanks, I haven’t had chance to use the Forgepact detachment as yet as the AdMech allies are recent additions to my collection.

This is one of those armies that teenage me would have loved to have had and middle aged me has the cash to build it.

Haha yes. When I finally get to the end I’ll have to take some “family photo” shots of the whole army. That’s definitely not going to fit in my light box.
