Finished: 3mm Warhound Scout Titans

Hi folks,

Having finished with all the rebasing, I've decided to clear off some of the projects that have been sitting on my painting shelf over the winter. 

I also based up a 10mm fantasy Lizardman army given to me by Pete for my For Joshua project. More on this later. 

These two 3mm scale Warhound Scout Titans are 3d prints from a friend. I've had these for a while now, having finished the other two I had a couple of years back. Another set of models I had built up in my head to being a big issue to paint, that I completed basically over the weekend. 

 I took effort to match these in with my other two, giving me a nice pack of Warhounds:

These fit in well with my other Titans (a couple of 3d printed Reavers, and a few 3mm scale Stalkers from Vanguard Miniatures). 

I've a few more models to do for this Titan force, including some 3d printed larger brutes. I've also still some Vanguard Miniatures models to do. However, those may be used to start off the opposition. I'll have a think.

These are painted up as Legio Praesagius Titans. I really should try and get a game of Adeptus Titanicus with these guys!

Finished: 3mm Dreadnought Stalker and AHPC 8 Prep

Hi folks,

Apologies for the lack of content of late, I've been focusing on prepping for the upcoming Analogue Hobbies Painting Challenge as well as trying to finish off my first Dreadnought Stalker for my 3mm Sci Fi army.

First up, the prep. I'd already done some prep on my 15mm German arty, but needed to finish off the rest. I've not got quite a bundle of this stuff to do - which will be my Gunuary project as well. I'm hoping that the guns themselves will be quick to paint, but am not looking forward to all those gun crew!

I've also been prepping some more 3mm Sci Fi stuff as well as my 6mm Team Yankee British force. We're hoping to get some games of this (myself, Dave and Martin) in the new year. Dave has a load of Russkie stuff done, so I want to get some of my Brits painted up.

Linked to the 6mm stuff, I won a competition for a £20 voucher from Butlers Printed Models this week. Just a random draw for completing some wargames magazine quiz, but that has gone towards getting some of the BPM 1/285th printed British models.

The model I've finished is my first Dreadnought Stalker for my 3mm army. In the DiD universe these machines are operated by the Cybershadows, who are a breakaway faction of the Novans.

I've painted mine up to be a Reaver Titan proxy for my Ultramarine proxy infantry. I've not gotten a name for it yet, but the model is roughly painted up in Legio Praesagius colours.

I'm pretty pleased with how it's turned out. I used decals I had from the 40k Primus Marine decal packs I had bought online. I'm waiting for some other bits from Vanguard to see if I can add some banners and stuff, as well as some other decals which might help add some Ad Mech elements. This is one of the early prototype Dreadnought Stalkers, so has a fixed head. I understand the newer ones have variations in leg pose and head options. The models also come with a huge range of weapon loadouts. I've kept mine in keeping with the Legio - lots of precision weapons and anti titan loadouts.

Looking forward to getting some of Vanguards scout stalkers, and hopefully one of their newer style stalkers - a variation on the Dreadnought Stalker seen here.
