How to hide a titan

Today was a good 6 hours put in bringing the first part of my Adeptus Titanicus terrain up to table standards.

It is the contents of the starter set and the civitas imeprialis sector boxes, giving quite a lot of parts to build various structures.

After building they were undercoated black, then overbrushed with adeptus battlegrey (dark grey), then a heavy dry brush of Elf Grey, yes I still have a pot of paint over 20 years old.

Doors and eagle gargoyles were picked out in Vallejo polished gold, then the doors were given a wash of agrax earthshade.

The last image shows the versatility of the components, the smaller modules actually clip onto the bigger ones to create truly tall buildings that even the big titans can use as cover.
The spires kit makes up the little temple like structures, and I may get more of these as they do look fantastic.

The dusty dark look of the buildings is chosen to match my terrain matt, which has areas of rubble printed on it.

That's all for today, thanks for looking in, and stay safe everyone.

House Vyronni knights

Well I got these wee chaps finished just minutes ago.

These are the house knights for the new version of Adeptus Titanicus, probably the first game I got into by games workshop as it was large battle, and didn't cost a fortune.

A lot of people have been down on this game as they claim it is now 8mm scale and that puts all the old models out of scale, but if they had the old models , as I do, the infantry was 8mm scale for a standard human, all the original vehicles were closer to 5mm scale and the titans and knights were closer to 3mm scale.

Regardless, I have played the new version and it is good fun, managing the balance between keeping your titan healthy and pushing for a killing blow.

Here are 6 Questoris knights in 3 weapon loadouts, because that's what you get in the box....

Nice models, and still looking slightly shiny as matt varnish dries, they are from house Vyronni who fought alongside my titan legion Legio Defensor during the Horus heresy.
A little bit of artistic license, it shouldn't be yellow and green but more of a khaki and green but it looked to much like painting WW2 germans for my liking.

Anyway that's enough for one day,

Stay safe everyone and have a happy easter.
