Ixion - Knight Paladin of House Hermetika

[Agis]

I bought one of the model kits right at the release of the Imperial Knight kit in March 2014.
I assembled it pretty fast but then it somehow ended in the “to Paint Queue”.
Now after 15 month I finally got the model finished.
So behold “Ixion” venerable Knight Paladin of House Hermetika.



I used transfers of the original kit and some Forge World sheets, the heraldry on the Ion shield is partly freehand painted (the flames) as is the Hermetika H symbol on the right shoulder.

And finally a group shot with some more Mechanicus minis:

Very impressive.

"Many machines on Ix. New machines..."

Lovely, just lovely. I am particularly impressed by the smooth richness of the reds contrasted to the smooth shinyness of the gold/brass areas.

[Mason]

Seriously smooth.
Love it!
 

[FramFramson]

Wow, nice job on the gold.

[Agis]

Thanks folks, I used mostly the new GW/ Citadel colours on the Knight, worked fine!

[uti long smile]

Wow. Superb!

"Many machines on Ix. New machines..."

"Better than those on Richese"    My first though too.

Beautiful job Agis!

[Dr. Zombie]

Very nice. Very smooth paint job.

But the technically the weaponry makes it a Knight Errant, not a Paladin.

Wot 'e said.  Also, aye! That's why 'Ixian' seemed familiar.

Nicely done. As always.

Almost makes me want to play 40K. Almost.

Lovely work.

Thanks again folks!

Damn, you are right... (Blush!)

Bah, who needs 40K for this, ViDe Future Combat covers that one nicely...
