Title: Sector Mechanicus Alchomite Stack
Post by: snitcythedog on 04 June 2017, 02:48:26 PM

Just the Sector Mechanicus Alchomite Stack from GW.  I based it to fit my existing terrain.  Nice thing is they limited the amount of imperial symbolism and excess skulls.  Mini on a 25mm base for scale.  Hope you like.

Nice. The white with dirty metal works well.

I am with you, the best plastic-scenery-set Gw made until now. It is a pleasure painting them. Only the GW boards are too expensive, so I took the "cheap" version from secret Weapon.

Thanks for the comps all.  The metalics were pretty easy.  A heavy drybrush steel over black and pick out details followed by a flesh wash then a null wash.  The rust is a model railroad product.  Just powdered rust applied heavily in white spirits.  The white was sponged on.  Start to finish was only two sittings at the paint table and drying time.  This kit is nice but the others will be of limited use for me because the will not fit in with my existing scenery.  I honestly do not need another table project to work on.  Again thanks for the comps.

The terrain looks great. Thanks for sharing your process. I have been debating how to paint the SWA terrain quickly enough without getting bogged down with all the little details on the kit.
