Airbrushed and Weathered Imperial Knight. House Cadmus.

This guy has been my labour of love for the last week. I wanted to try a chipped paint effect and this gave me the opportunity. He was painted using various techniques including pre shading and using washes though my airbrush. He still needs a few touch ups here and there but he is 95% done. He was a pleasure to paint, I really do enjoy "BIG" models, they are so much fun. I used Micro Sol and Micro Set for the transfers. Ive been using it for a few years now and the products really are great and a must try especially when applying such big transfers.
As you can see I magnetised the carapace weapons so they are swappable. The model arms, waist and head are all posable as well.

Showcase, Imperial Knight from House Taranis.

So there we go, My favourite model to paint is done. Lots of lovely smooth panels. Using lots of techniques like preshading I painted this guy in 5 days. likely about 30 hours work in total. He's destined for eBay to fund the next project but if anyone is interested before he hits the auctions drop me a line here. More photos to follow. If anything that is my weakness. My photos really don't do the models I paint justice.

Imperial Knight, House Taranis. Work in Progress.

So the Tau project is done and on its way to the customer. It was a fun project but I prefer to paint BIG stuff.
So next up its an Imperial Knight. With the release of codex Skitarii I wanted to paint something that would be in keeping. Imperial Knight Titan? Yes Please. I didn't however want to go the route many others do with the yellow and black markings. So a flick though the Knights codex and then the companion book and I thought House Taranis fit the bill.

Mostly red with some white and black panels and some cool transfers afterwards I think this can look really nice.

So far I've subassmenbled the whole model and begun work on the armour plates. Im enjoying this model very much and so far its been wonderful to paint.
