The spirit forms look great. This thread is making it hard to focus on my current obsession.

Today's Judgement Day submission is the Karpov MF7 Sentenoid. Deployed to support the Sov invasion of Mega City One, this robot was a mainstay of the Sov forces during the Apocalypse War, one electrocuted Mega City One judge at a time.



I've been ticking away at the Sentenoid for a while now. It comes in eleven parts, and I pinned the hell out of it. It required minimal clean-up. It's attached to the base by only two of the four legs, so pinning was the only way. I wanted to go nuts on the base too. The Sentenoid takes up very little of the actual base, so I had plenty of room for a dead Mega City One judge and some Apocalypse War paraphernalia. The truly devoted might recognise the leaflets scattered about the base.



It's a very nice model when it's all together, and surprisingly large. I also tried out AK Interactive's Fuel Stain effect on some of the vents and such. It's a nice oily, glossy finish. A little hard to see on the photos, but it adds another level of interest to the model. They are oil-based, but that's no real impediment. They do a great range, so well worth checking out.

With the Sentenoid finished, that completes the Sov Invasion box minis. Here's the whole gang:



There's only one more Sov left in my radar now, the main man himself. I've been looking forward to getting a brush at him for some time now.

Very impressive!

Love the dead (dying?) Judge and the leaflet - just super details really.

Thanks. I am sore tempted by the cabal. Gargarax is a little hero of mine. The jerk.

I take back any complaints about the sculpting on the Sovs, because the Senteniod is perfect. Fantastic painting and a really characterful base make that thing sing. The whole group looks so good together.

Great work on the Sentenoid, it really is the centrepiece of the force now.  I'm not into bases like you are, but that one really works well.

I take back any complaints about the sculpting on the Sovs, because the Senteniod is perfect.

As a point of interest, the Sentenoid is a digital sculpt whereas the rest of the Sovs are traditional. Actually the Satellat might be digital. Did it strike you as a digital sculpt during painting Mr S?

You know, it really didn't. I would have guessed hand sculpted. With a robot the digital sculpting is a little more forgiving I guess.

Bloody awesome. I need to get on with my Dredd stuff and I have had my eye on the East Meg gang for ages.


that is super nice work on a lovely figure. Played some JDMG myself yesterday. If you are looking to paint a new gang I would strongly suggest a demonic cabal. f**thing hilarious on the table.

Do tell!

#19 Renegade Servo-Droid

A quick one today, a former services industry employee turned rebel.



The figure is a Mongoose/Warlord Renegade Robot.  I decided to go for a less industrial scheme on this guy compared to the more obviously industrial robots on the set.  I intend to match this colour scheme with some unarmed menial robots at a later date.

I used the same colour scheme on the gun as on the other Renegades.  I imagine that they hijacked an arms shipment at some earlier point as I like the little thread of consistency that the consistent weapon colour brings.



The blog post is here.  Mr Saturday will have another submission next week.
