Sons of Horus - Officer

The Sons of Horus officer from the last post is now painted, so here are some photos. I've not completed the basing yet as I'm not sure what theme I'm aiming for with these guys.

Sons of Horus

I have finally started painted my Sons of Horus...I need to have an army of these guys done for April!

Order of the Sacred Shroud

I've taken some photographs of my test model sister of battle, so I'm sharing them here. Hopefully I'll get more completed in 2015, and they'll make a more regular appearance. I also need to cast up some replacement backpacks as I seem to be missing quite a few.

Great Gargant - not done, but done for now.

It's still not 100% done as the crew are still unfinished, and the CC arm is untouched - I'm torn between rebuilding it with a second saw disc or replacing it with a lifta droppa arm. As I'm not likely to need it until November for Apocalypticon UK, I'll take a while to decide.

Here are some shots of it before it got packed away until the next Apoc game.

Gargant - painting started

Just a catch up post really - I took these photos a few days ago and the gargant is actually more complete, but I'm pressed for time at the moment.

Before the paint was applied, here's the shoulder turret

 Inspired by this I started 4 slightly bigger nes for the MegaGargant project

Observation platform with more detail

Big Shoota final location

Painting begins - same winter scheme as my other Blood Axes

What's that coming over the hill, is it a Gargant?

Yes - we're starting to get this one ready for the paint shop - sadly just as I go back to work so won't have any painting time, as my weekends are still full of the house that's never fixed! :(

Today's progress:

Gaze of Mork wires/piping

More exhausts, plates, patches and a door with a port hole!

Front view of the head - with that drooping brow and a monocle with trailing pipe on the right, it looks like Patrick Moore!

Observation platform, complete with wind speed and direction indicator and stereoscopic rangefinder! That's how Blood Axes roll!

The phallic gun was made bigger, because well he needed it!

All the gubbinz attached including the tiled/shingled roof of the grot oilers hut (behind the big exhaust).

Just needs the arms rebuilding and the right shoulder kannon turret adding.

It's Grrrreat Gargant

Been covering the card plates with styrene ones, since Christmas - it's getting tiring now.Oh and don't mention rivets - seriously! I've had a little fun adding engine details and some platforms at the back for Grot Oilers and Riggers - quite a bit more to do and I'm working on the house all this week and back at work on Monday! :(
