Custom Talos WIP and Space Hulk Mission List

Here is my WIP talos.  Trying to get him painted up for our map based campaign that is launching with a Space Hulk mission.

 

I still need to do a lot of painting.  He needs more tiger stripes on his legs, and abdomen .  I also changed up his hand weapon a bit, by adding the blade and spike out the back.  It is magnetized, as are the arms at the shoulders and the elbows.

 

 For the mission, there are NO FOC restrictions, and I know there are going to be a lot of  Terminators and Dreadnoughts.

So here is my list for the Space Hulk Mission:

Lord Vraesque     Huskblade, Soul-trap, Shadow Field.  Still no eyes.

Archon  Huskblade, Soul-trap, Shadow Field.   (Still a lot of painting to do on him.)

Haemonculus Ancient, Splinter Pistol, Agonizer, Casket of Flensing, Liquifier gun

Haemonculus Splinter pistol, Agonizer, Liquifier gun, Shattershard

6 Incubi.  The central planet of the map campaign is named Helios, so its on the banner.  Again, the Incubi are about 75% done.  Still some touch-ups and detail to add.

6 Incubi.  More painting to do yet.

Talos "Tony"  Chain Flails, twin linked splinter cannon, extra CCW.

 Talos "Brutus"  Chain Flails, twin linked splinter cannon, extra CCW.

999 points.

Talos WIP part 2

 

Here is my magnetized, assembled Talos.  The lighting isn't the best. I magnetized both arms with large magnets at the shoulders, and smaller magnets in the elbow.  The tail is magnetized, and so is the gun on the forearm.  I made the custom chain flails with the hook close combat weapon, 2 chains from a venom, and two chains from the raider sprue.  I think the hook weapon looks good with all the chains and hooks.  The gun mount came to me after I tried to mount it on the top of the carapace, on a tail tentacle, and a couple of other failure locations.  The arm looks pretty cool.  Just need to green stuff the hole on the top of the guns.

 You can see I mounted the talos top bony, injector thing on the underside of his legs.  Looks a lot like a spur on a fighting rooster.  May name him Foghorn Leghorn.

 Here are some changes I made to Brutus.  I gave him an extra tentacle arm, mounted the gun up high, and magnetized his arms a bit more. 

 I added a wrack close combat weapon on his left too.  Now to try a web way portal list.  2 Talos, reavers, scourges, big wyche squads, wracks, and probably some beasts.

How to magnetize a Dark Eldar Talos Chronos

Here is the second video I recorded a few weeks ago.  Love this model.

Talos, Wracks, Haemonculus

Here are some projects I have been working on.  First, the Talos.  He is almost complete.  Just some detail work to do on a few spots.  I like the tail on the underside better than over-the-top like a scorpion.

The weapon arms are magnetized, and everything is set up to change it into a chronos.  I have a video describing it that I will be posting soon.

Here is the Talos with the Haemonculus, wrack acothyst and wrack with liquifier.  The Haemonculus arms other than the sword are magnetized, as are the left arm of the acothyst and liquifier wrack.  Now I can have WYSIWYG haemonculus so I won't forget what he has, and will make sure and use it. 

 Here are some other variants.  I am going to use this bit off of the Talos for a scissorhand for the Haemonculus.

More options.  Love the new wrack models.
