A squad of five servitors. One of them, the only 2nd edition model is a substitute until I finish a third lasgun armed model. I think servo armed models were only available in Space Marine forces back in 2nd edition. The colour scheme didn't quite end up having the 2nd edition feel I was looking for, but they're ok. The jumpsuits could've been a brighter colour or I should've just properly committed and painted them red. Atleast I'm happy how the servitors weapons turned out. They give a bit more of a 2nd edition feel with the clunky lasgun muzzles.
Next up we have a heavy weapon mortar team thats still missing the other three models. I'm quite happy with the mortars as they're all milliput recasts. They lack a bit of detail compared to the original, but three metal mortars would've been past my budget.
Last but not least we have two tank crew members. A converted Van Saar juve and an Other World Miniatures barbarian. I started working on the juve before OWAC, so he's got a 3rd edition auspex in his hand. The pilot helmet is from my favorite 40k models, the three third edition tank crew members. The techno viking got a spanner and bionic arm.
All three are unfinished units, so I won't add any points this month. I'm very happy with the tank crew members and the cultist regiment is also slowly expanding. Hopefully the Tech Priest I'm working on will make the servitors look better with the rest of the army. Atleast he will be red.
Still no tanks! This was my last Rank & File month, so I've only got the wild card and leader month left.
Good luck for everyone!
A cracking effort for this month, well done
ReplyDeleteWell done for refocussing and getting it over the line for another month. Your force is going to look brilliant when it is all finished. Keep up the good work! :)
ReplyDeleteStaying in the challenge can be tough at times, and I'm glad you managed to complete the month. Personally, I really enjoy seeing this variety of different troops-there’s a lot to love here. Your tank crew conversions are especially well done and are my favourite part of this strong month.
ReplyDeleteLots of character in those conversions, well done on getting through the difficult 4th month.
ReplyDeleteGood grief, those conversions are excellent.
ReplyDeleteGreat job on the milliput casts, really difficult to tell which is the original in the photos! Really looking forward to seeing the completed army shots :)
I love your paintings, your models and your color choices. The whole result smells like hive city dust.
ReplyDeleteThe brown on the cawdor and vehicules is really cool. Well done for your owac so far, this is really nice.
