Greetings Terrans, been quite a while since I last posted, but I have been busy building tanks for 1st Platoon to tool around in… They took bloody ages, but are now primed and ready to paint up – more on them in the coming weeks. Meanwhile, I have also been working on some OG AdMech and the Servitors that allow Rogue Trader IG armies to access all the toys…

First up, two of Bob Olley’s Adeptus Mechanicus tech priests, dating back to 1989:

As with all Olley sculpts, these guys are very wibbly and fun to paint – just look at that robed guy!! I probably didn’t do them justice really, opting for a quick paint job rather than picking out all the detail & fancy highlighing, but still pretty effective I think.

Next we have five Stargrave ‘Automatons’ – a very nice plastic kit available by the sprue for a very reasonable amount. These make for great Servitors & are really nice minis in and of themselves! Plenty of spares as well, so I have a nice windfall of bionics added to the bitz-box.

I painted these to look well used & a bit ramshackle… While the 7th Mordion might be newly raised, their AdMech contingent is anything but!

And here they are together – funny how the new and the old work so well together:

Anyway, that’s it for now folks – time to get focused on some tanks!!
