Emperor's Guard - Legio Invigilata

Having recently realised I have never posted pictures of my finished knights and no record of their existence other than a feature in White Dwarf in March 2019 I felt I needed to rectify this oversight.

So without further ado so pictures of Kernigets......

Atrapos - Koloboss

 

 

 Lancer - Iapetus

 

Lancer - Gungnir's Wrath

 

Acheron - Ixion

Castallan - Rex Venari

So there you have it finally uploaded 12 months after completion......oh I have a Casstigator to do some day 

The Mutilation of the Masses

The Knight Atrapos, "Kolobos" is done ready to base.

But no rest for the wicked.............

Knight Lancer designation "Gungnir's Riposte" (although not 100% settled on the name) is built and ready for painting

The Mutilation of the Masses

Starting to come together now!

I even made the transformer noise as I was building it......................

Don't judge me :P

I put it next to the other knights and it dawned on me just how fecking massive it is

The Mutilation of the Masses

BITSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

That are covered in oil and stuff!

Although this is taking longer than the previous two knights there is progress, it is however a lot more detailed and requires far more work than the previous two knights.  

The Mutilation of the Masses

So base building has begun, I have manged to get the footprint of the Atrapos sorted so I can also start the build of that.  The base will be left now as it is just the matter of detailing it but the foundation it laid, it will be a ruined building on the raised part down to a road/plaza on the lower part.

I have a question to ask anyone daft enough to read this, which of the two body positions should I go with as I am undecided currently

A

or

B

The Mutilation of the Masses

The Gallant is finished other than the base however I have made a decision to batch paint the bases to save time and gain some uniformity.  Therefore I will do them in threes as the next knight will need to be attached to the base in order to stand up as I intend a pose with a degree of movement.

So that's the preamble of the post over.

Now..........

next knight has been commenced......

I give you BITZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ

it is the new Atrapos knight and one hell of a nice cast, I have had a couple of minor mold slips to rectify otherwise it is perfect.....I love me some perfect castings for sure.

I have decided to name it "Kolobos", which I was always led to believe was ancient greek for the verb "To mutilate" not having ever studied greek let alone ancient greek I can't confirm or disprove this but that is irrelevant, it is a super cool name to me in any event and who is to say that Kolobos doesn't mean to mutilate in some far off long lost Knight World......rule of cool applies

This was the kit that drew me back into the hobby after my hiatus.....and it is fooken lovely!

Heads Will Roll

Time waits for no man they say, so as I have so much to do these days lets crack on......

Somewhat a productive day, still a fair amount to do on the Gallant but it is well on the right side of the half way mark :)

Not the best pictures in the world so have another with the groin flag painted

and here he is with his not so little mate 

Look Garmr there is a pot of PIS!!

and in keeping in the spirit of my first comment something has arrived, what oh what could it be......
