Hah, nice.  Heads magnetic or leaving them for gluing?

Interesting... these would be easy to magnetize. Not sure why'd I'd want to but now that you mention it I might do that. Great idea.

After seeing dwartist paint his heads separately I tried it out, I really liked doing it that way.
a mixture of quick parts, sarcastic humour, reserve, and caprice.

They look pretty chunky with seriously thick necks...so I think you'd have the real estate to put magnets in.  That's a good idea though, painting heads separately...hmmm...

Ah, the old "hey, this model only has enough ammunition for one burst...".

I always wondered how Space Marines got anything done, using only one magazine which must hold about 6 rounds of bolter ammo... lol  I guess that's why so many of them carry swords in the future.

In 40k you get 1 shot per turn, 6 turns  ;)

 lol

Here's a shot of the Crusader in the mix. I planned to Photoshop a new sky into it but haven't gotten to that yet. After I do some editing I will post some details.

Levathan looks very 'battle-weary' - you've done a great job! Let's have some more pics.

I absolutely love your paint job and the models great, but I REALLY don't like that oversized assault cannon!! :o It would have been a better design if it was some sort of power glove with a smaller version mounted on the back of the hand! Something like this chap from Star Wars...



Again though, your painting is ace!!!

Bloody brilliant, Matt! :-*
I'm amazed how smooth the robot looks (and a bit surprised how big it is). Makes me gnaw at my fingers that I decided to skip the kickstarter :(
