Hello one and all.. I'm still here! This weeks offering is 2 Primaris Captains for my Deathwatch force. First Captain, this captain - from the Brotherhood of a Thousand chapter is the standard Gravis captain, with a space wolves head swap. The armour has been painted as per other Deathwatch forces, with the addition of a purple power sword. Up next, is Captain 2.. Similar to some of my Deathwatch force, the Captain has had the Power Sword swapped with one of the Necron power weapons, I like the idea of the Deathwatch accessing enemies weapons to fight them.. This model also has had the ..read more

Hello Titanseers, thanks for dropping by. More progrrss with the rescue Warbringer Titan from Forge World. Some small details have been taking up my time this week, the head, internals and crew - small but highly detailed takes time. This is the Master of Ordnance, he is positioned on the gun deck, hopefully taking shelter before the big gun fires - otherwise he'll get a 'tan', needs ear duffs and goggles and mouth open for firing! I also put a pair of magnoculars on the front armour. A quite dapper chap, I used mainly contrast paints for the fabrics and Guilliman Flesh for the skin. Not q ..read more

Hello Dreadtober-teers and Readers all, thanks for dropping by. I have completed my #Dreadtober2024 pledge in the form of a Vassal Knight of Legio Astorum, a Cerastus Knight Lancer, resin kit from Forgeworld. This will be the first of three (others plastic kit from GW) to make up a Banner of Knights when we do Titan Walks at Titan Owners Club, using AT28mm rules. The Lancer is astride a tactical rock like all good Knight Senschal's should be. I think the more static pose of one of the plastic Knights will make the Senschal of this Banner, but for now - this is the solo Knight. I did a rathe ..read more

Hello Titanseers and Readers All, thanks for dropping by. Pictured is a new weapon option for one of my magnetised Forge World Warhound Titans of Legio Astorum. I have used rubber skipping rope for the power cables meaning its flexible and easily swapped out between titans and sides left or right without an issue. After the Titan Owners Club UK Main Walk two weeks ago I decided that the Vulcan Mega Bolter (VMB) and Plasma Blastgun (PBG) combination was a great one for a Warhound, shield stripping and damage potential. The Turbolaser Destructor (TLD) lacked the number of shots (two) but has s ..read more

Hello Dreadtober-teers and Readers all, thanks for dropping by. I have continued the Cerastus Knight Lancer, nearly getting there - just the Shock Lance and banner to do when I decide how to do the Shock Lance 'shock power' effect. The Shock Lance weapon forearm is magnetised for ease of transporting. The Ion Shield can be easily clipped into place too. The Knight has been attached to the base, the arm affixed in place and now carapace top and left shoulder pauldron are now fixed in place And whilst busy doing the Forge World resin Knight Lancer for Dreadtober, I have progressed with two pl ..read more

Last weekend Lord TITANium and myself attended the UK Titan Owners Club main Walk, with over 150 God Engines and numerous Knights battled over 4 battle mats in two Halls. Great fun was had all weekend, and we look forward to the next Titan Walk! The motley bunch of Princeps Siph's own Legio Astorum ..read more

Hello Dreadtober-teers, progress is happening with the Cerastus Knight Lancer, base is finished and endo-skeleton is basecoated, needs more details finishing. I actually am waiting on three Taro Modelmaker solid in-fill shields for the three Lancers I have but for now I tired my hand at a little blue energy glow on the Lancer's shield, came out quite good! Just drybrushed from dark to light and large patch to smaller. The base has a fallen enemy Knight arm from House Malinax, decals from AT boxset. The gubbins inside the torn off arm are from a Ad Mech Torsion Cannon. Dreadtober is an ann ..read more

Hello Dreadtober-teers, a good week of building and clean up and even some base work too, as I needed it for posing the legs. I have even included a tacticool rock!  The pose will be a braced stance with shield up and lance thrust forward. The above image shows the main pose. Onward to the Rites of Colour! Dreadtober is an annual event held over the month of October where hobbyists pledge to do a dreadnought-sized model from the to-do pile and get it finished, starting 1st Oct and completing 31st Oct (Halloween/All Hallows Eve) with lots of progress shots and encouragement along the wa ..read more

Titan Owners Club UK held a demonstration game at the London Grand Tournament, held at Lea Valley Athletics Centre, north London, last weekend. Myself (Siph) and a few other UK Princeps had the opportunity to bring their Titans to pitch battle ahead of the Titan Owners Club UK Main Walk in two week's time. It was a great weekend of gaming and victory to the Loyalists on Day 1 and Day 2 - using the Adeptus Titanicus (scaled up to AT28mm) ruleset and objectives (hidden). Here are some pictures -  Traitor Engines line up with Xenos allies - TOC Member Richard A's Legio Mortis Engines TOC ..read more
