The Last Lament - AOP 2019 entry

The Last Lament

A lone Lamenter charges the enemies of the Imperium against insurmountable odds, mysteriously aided by the legendary Legion of the Damned.











This was a last minute entry to the local stores Armies on Parade competition this year. Put together over a few days it gave me a chance to finish up my last LOTD models and add a Lamenter as a theme and give me a second HQ choice to mean I can in theory use the models as a complete army.

Its nothing special or complicated just marines painted in a similar ghostly style to the AOS wraiths and bearing weapons and armaments that are painted to look like grave goods or relics of a bygone age.

Mezoa Rolls Out - Servitor Crewed Scout Vehicle

This unusual servitor crewed vehicle appears to be operation in a scouting role in support of armoured elements from the forge world forces of Mezoa.

This conversion is a simple mix of the genestealer cult buggy and a couple of the tracks from the Kataphrons and gunner to give the model a more robust and technological look that fits the idea of the Adeptus mechanicus.

From a rules perspective it will likely be run as a Salamander Scout vehicle using the forgeworld index rules.

1 Hour Painting Challenge - Completed UR-025 ready to "explore" Mezoa


First encountered on the outskirts of the Mezoan Solar system the machine known to the priesthood as the "Noospherically Attenuated Scouting Automata" and it’s probe Bellum Bellus Octum hail from an unknown Forge World but the noospheric codes pass all tests to show them as loyal servants of the machine good. Both machines are the only survivors of several ill fated missions to explore a previously unidentifiable object at the edge of the Mezoan system but they continue to accompany unfortunate missions to investigate the object.  






So an hour to paint, 30 seconds to write some fluff and my first attempt at the Blanchitsu style of painting is done. I thought I would try and make them look worn and dirty like modern NASA space suits after space walks and with the inclusion of hand painted NASA identifiers and mission patches for a Mars mission (oooooo! Intriguing) I felt it worked well. Not 100% neat but I’m happy enough not to repaint and feel it fits the worn and weathered look. 

1 Hour Painting Challenge - UR-025 and a little pal!

Today I’ve set myself a 1 hour challenge!



In my break I intend to paint UR-025 and his base in a single hour, my only concession is he was assembled and under coated last night because I don't have anywhere to do this at work. All the basing and painting will be done in an hour!






Here below is the progress of the 1 hour painting challenge! Now just waiting on the final wash to dry before moving the boys on the the base.
