Not to much progress, but some is better than none! I finished my Knight Atropos unit and put in a bit more work on the two Reavers.

| Pict 1657: House Procon Vi Cerastus Knight Atrapos |
First up, here are the four Cerastus Knight Atrapos that were almost finished last week. The additional colours on the Lascutter and the Singularity Cannon really help to bring some visual interest into the rather muted colour scheme of House Procon Vi. Having finished these, I really would like to add more Knights to my collection – some Acherons and Castigators first and foremost. And I'm really tempted to also get a Cerastus frame in 28mm scale as an ally for my Heresy Blood Angels...

| Pict 1658: Legio Solaria Reaver Titans (WIP) |
No that much difference from last week on the main bodies. Only a few more details such as the scrollwork and the cabling. I also did some work on the bases. The next thing will be the trim on the bodies. The trim on the weapons took two evenings and I had to do something else before switching to the engines themselves.

| Pict 1659: Vargheists (WIP) |
It has become a bit of a tradition for me to play a game or two of Cursed City around Halloween and I'd like to paint up another unit by the end of the month as well. This time around I started on a trio of Vargheists. Once these are done, I'd only be missing ten Grave Guard to have everything for the two expansions. Of course, there are a few more bits and bobs, I'd like to do. But now that a new Warhammer Quest has been announced, I might struggle to get them done before I'm embarking on a new adventure.

Coincidentally I am listening to Titan Death at the moment so it's nice to be able to put a colour scheme to what's going on. For some reason I hadn't thought to look them up and here we are. They look great, the bases in particular on the knights achieve that urban battlefield look really well.
ReplyDeleteI'd recommend the Cerastus Lancer, both in AT and 40k. It's definitely the best option in 40k. But in AT they're a bit cheaper to get hold of on ebay and they can do some serious damage if they get into combat with a Titan. My mates are disproportionately concerned whenever I put them on the table. They're quick, so they focus fire on them as the most pressing target. Their shields offer a bit more protection so they have a chance of getting half a unit of 4 into their titans, which allows your own titans to come into range.
I might have to reread Titan Death as well! I'm currently reading Titanicus by Dan Abnett to inspire me while painting the Reavers.
DeleteI have some LI/AT Lancers and played them in both systems. They really can be a menace. During the last game I played, three of them took out on detachement of Solar Aux artillery each in a single turn!
