Well, it's nice when people mistake a conversion :) But the entire landing pad is indeed scratch built based on the look of the large FW landing pad. Thanks!

Captain: I have thought about building one, but I really haven't done any serious planning. I'm mainly trying to get the Skitarii force out of proxy and unpainted models which means these guys for starters and a group of 6 macharius. Basically, this year I'm trying to finish out odds and ends for the various armies I've already got before delving into new stuff, so no majors :)

Glyn: That pink is the plasticard my priming didn't quite fully cover. It'll go away after I do a touch up undercoat with white. Basically I've been using up bits of an old plastic sign I've been scavenging from for years.

I'd hoped that this post would be all three minorus, but Xeones is still building the spotter plane for the landing pad one. It just needs to have the nose finished out and a bit of detail here and there so that one should appear sometime this weekend. After much back and forth between a traditional AdMech scheme or something more non-standard, this won out. I think it shows a good bit of the mechanicus red but also puts in a more olive gray-green since these things are supposed to be out in the field.

I'm finally drawing to a close on my skitarii with around 6 vehicles to go before my force is complete. To that end I'm charging forward on painting up the 6 marcharius that make up those missing vehicles. If all goes well, perhaps by the end of next week and I'll be back to titans.

Is it intentional that it looks like the quake cannons are on loan from a Titan? I like it.

Thanks! I;m not entirely happy with the windows on tthe back s oI went back to night and make them better. It'll show up in the group shot.

Ulric: No, it's actually not a white highlight. I used gray mixed with dark flesh for the highlight, it's probably the varnish catching the light and making the highlight look more white.

Captain: kind of intentional. It's supposed to look like they dropped the titan weaponry on a chassis and that they could pull it if necessary to put on a new weapon.

Really nice. I'm a fan of your style in general, and this is definitely the best piece I've seen from you. Time to put away my ATML & start something different... ;op

I think this is going to set the style for the minoris from here out. It not only matches the existing Majoris models, but is above all a believable model. Again, excellent job!

Excellent build, Vaaish, I need to make it up to G'ville to see your armies in person!
