As it stands they don't really scream "I am something alive." Might just be the picture with my screen here though.

Still, looks great!


Totally disagree. It fits very well with the overall dirty and darker way the walker is painted. also it looks kinda like "used-to-be-alive-but-has-died-ages-ago" first thing i thought when seeing the whole dirty look, was scout. well executed

Good Lord. It looks like the older, meaner, big brother of the AT-AT walker. Your Chaos stuff is just inspiring.

I see no melting! The man is clearly enjoying a nice hot tubing, though is in dire need of a beverage ...

The vindi is almost too dark for me, think it could use at least a little shinier metal on the cannon at least. But I appreciate the level of ding going on, impressively filthy

Wow. Simple, ugly and elegant.

I love it. That is wonderful work. I was a bit concerned the spikes would be a bit too long. I was quite wrong.

Great stuff.

Brilliant!

You mentioned redoing the power mace in the termi squad to avoid babyrattleishness. Are you repainting the whole thing? Hope not- maybe just pain the central bit metallic, and leave the fins powered-up-deathy blue?

I think I might actually be scared of your 30mm tall toys. Jeez.

In the end I just added a couple real thin brown washes. It took some of the brightness out and has made it a bit more suitable for a weapon. Other than that I haven't unrattled it much more.

Now I only have 2 defilers, 2 vindicators, 2 rhinos, a baneblade and the lord to finish.

Just a quick one to let you all know I am still on this project, it's just on temporary hold. We've experienced some fairly significant flooding in our area, many people are out of home and unable to get to work or even out of town atm. So it's all temporarily on hold until things get back to normal.

Hope that everything works out for you Lemmingspawn, and that life returns to normal soon.

Excellent work.

Thanks guys! This is my favourite defiler so far. I really like how it turned out.

The cannon is underslung, if you look at the rear pic, you'll just make out the back end of the assemble. It's almost indiscernible in these pics.

I gotta agree, the model is excellent, and your paint is amazing, I especially like the attention to light sourcing on the "foot" claws, kudos!

Well, since I've adopted the moniker of Iron Giants for this army, I've completed the Chaos Lord, who is equipped with Plasma Pistol, Combi Flamer, Twin Lightning claws, Mark of Khorne and Juggernaught (both represented by the extra weapons and size - he is actually equipped with a combat servo harness assembly a-la Doc Ock). I used a mail order techmarine as the basis and I have a few bits to tidy up with GS yet, but you all have the pleasure of seeing it after the work I've done over the last couple of days. Here's the pics:









Enjoy!

Excellent work on this one. I'm a little jealous though has this was exactly what i had in mind for my Bigmek but cant find the servo harness bitz anywhere. Alas, in the future look for a similar looking yet distinctly orky mini coming soon

He looks very cool. And he fits the Iron Giants/Iron Warriors very well. The extra harness arms are a very nice touch as are the converted weapons.
