3mm extravaganza

Well, not quite an extravaganza just yet but, you know, dream big!
I’m back on the 3mm wagon once again after a long time away. I had done a fair chunk of an Alpha Legion army but the big basing started to annoy me a bit, as a result I've decided to start all over again with new bases and a new army.
The first test base:
Some assault infantry and support weapons:
Kind of close-ups:
Knights sworn to the Legio Khodabax:
More to come soon including, tanks, troops, a primarch (no less) robo-men and massive robots. Usual wordy nonsense is reappearing on the blog.
Thanks for looking.

You actually inspired me to join you in 3mm based on smaller round bases instead of in platoon bases. I love how your Iron Warriors turned out. And the knights with the ruin/industrial platforms on top!

Thanks all.
The smaller bases turned out better than I expected, and it also means I can use a variety of other rules systems quite easily. Also I think it’ll make the units interact with scenery in a more convincing fashion.
The Knights were good fun and I'm looking forward to working on their bigger relatives, also they look so much better next to tiny 3mm figures. A warlord will look properly imposing, I always thought titans looked way too small in epic. In the artwork they always looked colossal!

Can’t decide whether I like the titans more or that brilliant command stand. Really awesome.

Cheers all for the comments, really appreciate it.
What’s that coming over the hill, is it ........ 3 Fellblades-esque super heavy tanks? Yes, yes it is:
and driving through some random out of scale scenery:
They came out much darker in the photos, I always find metallics an utter pain to photograph.
I’ve been doing quite a bit of basing and other time consuming bits, but there will be further reinforcements in due course....... I’ve even found a model to play Perturabo!
Thanks for looking!

Those heavy tanks have come out very well, they look really good.

I really like your new basing! I regularly toy with 6mm 'skirmish' were a standard base is 3 infantrymen, and everything else is statted up to reflect it's stats 'in relation' to that base. Works well, i just need to do more!
How tall are those wee fellas - I assume they're 'true scale' like the 6mm ones are (so the 3mm probably stand around 5mm?)

@Ockma & jambo1: cheers!
@Jagannath: Thanks! I’m pretty pleased with how they’ve turned out. I’m currently basing my 6mm stuff on single bases because, well, I’ve just managed to finish an actual unit and I quite like the idea of 6mm skirmishes.
The 3mm scale power armoured chaps are about 4mm, if my squint serves me well enough. They are a bit bigger than the regular troops.

Finally, just a few more additions. A pair of the big, Limo class Land Raiders and a trio of Dreadnoughts:
Once again, the art of trying to make metallics not look black in photographs eludes me!
