robots are pretty cool, I like making them too

https://linktr.ee/dumbrobotstuff
still been working on this build in the background, making sure the leg position will be right, trimming bits to increase range, and I'll be combining the upper 2 sections into 1 larger thigh, which I'll cover with armour later. Also testing out UV resin to make the shield with

did the full gloss coat, decal, decal softener, then matte coat to apply them, and I wanted to keep it simple to not be too different from the rest of the model, but I do need to shade it since it's a tad bright, though highlighting the model will help balance that too
November 27, 2025 at 8:56 AM
did more on the base, now I'm using some decals for the tilt shield
November 26, 2025 at 6:29 PM
a few more colours, constrasts, washes, and some of the base. I do need to get some reikland fleshshade since I prefer to use that to shade the golds, but agrax still does the job well enough

drybrushed greys to give the black some shading/highlights and making my way through the other paints

I wanted to try attaching some crozius details to the hand, but they were too big and obscured the fist, so I just settled for whatever random spare marine decorative bit I had which also had a skull. Along with the fist cabling and gun chain, that's the build done

the implied motion of the execrator's pose works well with it, which also made the jump pack a fitting addition, combined with the directional pose it reminds me of how the of the assault class in space marine 2 plays/moves, and also a chaos marine I always like the pose of

I had this specific pose in mind from the start, the angled fist and pointed other arm give a strong direction, and even maybe some implied anger with the stern expression of the helmets like a previous black templar of mine, but the pose of the execrator feeds into it too
November 20, 2025 at 10:25 AM
got the powerfist part and combined it with a spare arm closer to the angle I wanted, then I just used a bit of green stuff to adjust how it connected to the torso specifically
November 19, 2025 at 5:01 PM
still working the pose out, but I've got some ideas, and I'm adjusting the legs so they can be a more human front knee/forward bend(kinda funny since I've done a lot of the opposite recently)

after the shoulders, this is as much as I can do for now

I want to do a kind of angled out, pointing forward powerfist for the other arm, but I'm waiting on tartaros terminator parts, as right handed powerfists are rare

I did wanna use the BT castellans skull shoulders, but the parts are separated in an awkward way, and green/blue stuff recasting didn't work well enough to use

I'm keeping this build simple so just going with the original shoulder pads, which have some skulls on them at least
November 16, 2025 at 12:25 PM
quick small-ish conversion I wanted to do with one of the new black templar units, the execrator
November 15, 2025 at 10:22 AM
Yeah I tried to keep the rebuilding of that model pretty simple so it should hopefully be easy to recreate, here's a full video covering it all if it helps too, good luck with your building www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ut6Y...

I got some normal pictures of my converted skatros trio, a rebuild of the basic skatros, an "ironstrider" variant made more for direct combat, and quite a different take on the model with a skitarii sniper on kastelan

probably, that's how it is in game, and also how I made the thermite launcher for my vanguard class armiger, but I figure it could be temporarily held one handed if the scorch were to be holding up a flame shield or something
November 10, 2025 at 1:53 PM
rough idea for the arms, using the usual kataphron and kastelan parts for the forearms, but the upper arm is thanatar pieces instead of armiger, which is a nice match for the spherical shoulders. Really need to find a pose to lock in and start with bigger changes now
November 10, 2025 at 12:15 PM
ok so they are 30k skitarii, nice to see them in a slightly different style, I like the helmets and can definitely make use of a lot of parts, especially the marshal's options, but it seems I'm not done cloak cutting yet. I'm hoping we get a melee/secutarii version
November 8, 2025 at 6:33 AM
I think I might have an idea of what I need for the build now
November 7, 2025 at 8:18 PM
Yeah that mini is great, I don't have much of an interest in underworlds, but the sons of velmorn warband was too cool too not to get some of

I think it's currently available in a bundle, so now might be your best chance of getting it secondhand/individually for a while if you're desperate
November 7, 2025 at 5:48 PM
I hope we finally get a proper look for these mechanicum units at the preview soon, I've been waiting for them for a while and they'd be perfect for a skinnier cyborg body base instead of having to cut off a skitarii's coat like I normally do
November 7, 2025 at 5:28 PM
some of my favourite skeletons so far
November 7, 2025 at 5:03 PM
It's common to see series have hell/devils but I like seeing stuff which also includes the opposite, there's lots of chances for cool angelic designs (like SMT, especially metatron).

Though it might just be like evangelion where they just used them because the names are cool
November 2, 2025 at 7:04 PM
"control" seems way more law/order aligned than all the other big devils/horsemen, there's obvious imagery with her painting, and the devils in her control are all the names of angel orders
