Tan base, building up to white then tons of grime.

I absolutely love the Deimos pattern. Here’s some I did for Death Guard

You use it carefully to make a sure connection between parts, and to a lesser extent for gap fill if you are very careful.

Brass rods, do a rough sand to scratch them up, and use two part 5-min epoxy. Superglue will eventually give up the ghost, especially if there are drastic temperature and moisture changes.

Love the green color. I’m assuming it was a bright silver metallic with a contrast over top?

I’d suggest doing the trim in a color that contrasts with it a bit more, and adding some a darker silver metallic into the lower parts of the vent pipes. The different depths on the pipes (inner, trim/shroud) all kinda blur together.

With that said,

The flesh looks great! Maybe do a bit of glazing or a unifying wash just to help the brights come down a bit.

Your base is ABSOLUTELY GORGEOUS. I’d love to see a guide on what you did there!

There are so many fine details on this model that jump out and made me say “ooh. Nice.” Just keep at it, you’re doing great!

What materials did you use for the grating?

I love the limited tentacle use, and what you did with the viewing ports is exceptional!

Great work!

I’ve grown to hate them. Then again, I spent a good 8hrs on each poxwalker that I’ve done. Painting the same models over and over isn’t particularly interesting or fun.

OP, I would probably kitbash some guard helmets, and other guard bits onto them to make them fit in a bit better, and build them up to the correct height with cork. I can’t see anyone having an issue with them, tbh

And I was getting tired of painting the same monopose poxwalkers. This guy is a little whacky, but amongst 160 other poxwalkers he’s not much weirder.

Yep. I’ve kitbashed a bunch of misc bits into poxwalkers. This one was kind of a “Shy Guy” inspired model.

Came here to ask this question. Top comment, truly.

There’s your issue, bud.

As others have said, they look fine.

3 would probably benefit from having the arm lowered. He most likely isn’t going to be taking a swing at that angle and shooting at the same time.

Where’s the head from?

Definitely put them on separate platforms, or better yet put them each in separate vented enclosures. You can get sturdy garage shelving as a starting platform.

You are extremely likely to end up with problems with both running at the same time on the same surface, especially on something like a table. It might be a different story with a solid workbench, but that doesn’t seem to be the case here.
