    Nah, it's more a tank with limited firepower and support role (it shoots a thing and, as Tau do, "traces" it for other necron units fo fire at it with more ease)

    Yes, the titan is from the Legio Honorum (they were originally one of the Mars Titan Legio, then Horus Heresy happened... now their homeworld is Stigies VIII, which is also one of the most powerful and mysterious AdMech Forge World).
    During the Heresy they fought on Beta-Garmon, alongside with Imperial Fists, when they were still led by Rogal Dorn.

    @Killer Angel that is excellent!

    Slightly heretical as I am staunchly loyal to Forgeworld Ryza of course, but that is a well executed space scene!

    How big is he compared to your necrons or other 40K forces?

    It's definitely big, but not that enormous for a titan. It's around 10,5" height.

    Horray!

    I've finally completed the recovery of a triarch stalker that i took in a large lot of 3rd hand necron bundle, which was totally missing the upper part.
    Between the various models, there were also some incompleted tomb blades (some without rider, some without weapons...)

    So, i went from this starting point:

    to this:

    IMG-20211008-WA0007.jpg


    And finally:

    Triarch 2-a.jpg

    Triarch 2-b.jpg

    Triarch 2-c.jpg


    I must say I'm pretty satisfied.

    @Killer Angel that is great! I always love being able to create whole extra models from extra pieces lying around, glad you were able to pull that off he looks very convincing!

    ~~~

    Got two more Deathwatch characters complete-

    Techmarine Kailash of the Fighting Tigers of Veda:

    warden20211016_deathwatch_techmarine 01.jpg

    warden20211016_deathwatch_techmarine 05.jpg

    and Captain Memnon of the Metamarines:

    warden20211022_deathwatch_metamarines captain 02.jpg

    warden20211022_deathwatch_metamarines captain 03.jpg

    Magnetized so he can carry a powersword... or skip the ranged weapons entirely and go full close combat Blackshield!

    Due to the incoming Tau allegiance between @Lizerd and me, i'm gonna post my forces. For the Greater Good!

    (i was in a hurry, so it's not a real display, they are mostly in their boxes. Also, i still need to work on bases to have a standardization, and some models need a repainting to match the colors, but it's already a pretty nice-looking force)

    Aun'va
    1 Ethereal
    Commander shadowsun
    2 Cadre Fireblades

    Nice looking (heretical xenos) Tau force! :D

    I agree it will be fantastic when they are all uniform color schemes, but that is an impressive collection :cool:

    Happy Halloween fellow xenos and/or loyal supporters of the Emperor!

    Finished up my Chaplain Dynamaxes of the Dread Saurians, a custom chapter created by the forum's own @Geedo-Ra

    warden20211031_dread saurian chaplain 1.jpg

    Complete with some T-Rex heraldry on his shoulderpad and the head of a gigantic Necron warrior on his base :D

    Excellent! Looks like you have a nice shelving setup!

    Dude this is so awesome! Glad to see the Saurians incorporated into your Deathwatch army, and the fact that he’s a chaplain makes it all the better (I run a 3x chaplain list lately).

    Very impressed with the freehand too - I don’t have the guts to try freehand and yours looks better than the decals I had printed! (Which, if you ever plan on doing more Saurians, I can send some decals your way)

    This is one of the nicest things I’ve had someone in the hobby do 1 keep up the great work!

    I don’t know you, but i'm pretty excited for the changes to Necrons (and chaos knights).

    Much needed buffs, so simple but so effective!
