Interesting project Sheep. I like this support vehicle for Hades. I hope you will post here later some photos from finished game table with these kill teams in action.

Soooo back to my fav log, to add to and play with.

Theres a tournament coming up in a month that requires 2000 points, now the simplest thing would be to simply paint a few more guardsmen, but I'm not know for doing the simple thing when awesomeness beckons.

Currently I run Knight Commander Pask in a executioner, but for this new list I'd like to try him in a vanquisher, and for that he needs a new ride. And what better for that then an actual knight









So, this is a reworking of an old knight I had made for my fallen guard army of waaaaayyyyy back in 2003. I've cut the chaos symbology off, and rebuilt the upper levels with plasticard, I've tried to ape the style of the epic warlord, which I guess is the lucius pattern.

Anyway, Next thing to work on is the weapons.

I'm also looking for suggestions for paint scheme, I was thinking of doing it in the bastardised ambush pattern the rest of my DKoK tanks are painted in, the other option is to do it ad mech red, but then it won't fit with the DKoK army.

Anyway, help would be appreciated.

Cheers

Tough call. To paint it red I think would look kinda silly with the army, but to just paint exactly like the rest of the army would do such a work of art no justice. I would paint it the same cammo pattern but with some detailing that really makes it stand out.

[BeatTheBeat]

Great looking Knight there! As for paint scheme, how about same camo as the rest of the army, but with dark-ish red parts - e.g head and weapons? Or at least red markings... Would tie it nicely to Mars I think!

Looking good. Abouth dammt time you give us an update :P

Imo i wouldn paint it DKOK scheme. Rather find (or make up) a titan legion color scheme.
Personally i would do that with the intent of building a titan legion detatchment for large apoc games and awesomeness.
I would proberly newer make more than one or two titans but the difference in you and me is that you actually paint you stuff insteadt of blabbering in decent people's logs abouth all the stuff im gonna make.

What ever you decide on im looking forward to see the results.

[MOMUS]

Fantastic knight! If you painted it in a new (titan legion) scheme you could still llink it to your DKOK by painting the metal areas the same as your tanks, as there is quite alot on the model i think it would be enough.
Great work.

BTW, where did you get those vents from?!?

[the damned artificer]

I'd go with thered for your knight as the mechanicum rarely deploys camo on their engines, as both the titan legios and the knight household are very proud of their livery. And like space marines, they want to be seen by the enemy so they know who will spell doom on them

But yeah, I'd say make up a household so you have a insignia for the knight, do some personal livery for this particular knight and maybe ad some of the markings from your DKoK army to show they are assigned to that particular army. You could also paint the same camo pattern as the DKoK, but in different tones of red instead, this could be a way to tie them together but still let the knight maintain it's household colours.

The important thing to remember is that the knights will always be a support unit, and the household has ultimate power over them, and not the commander of the army they aide. This is another reason why it fluff wise shouldn't be the same colours as the rest of the army and also let's you use it in other armies if you like

Hope my input helps

On the actual build, it's great and I love the different approach on the torso. I think the head could use some remake to make it look a bit less like a sentinel but otherwise marvellous job

[le Mediko]

Great work one more time, I like the mix with the sentinel parts an agree with a red scheme over various metallic colors.

I really like this idea, and fits with the titan scheme that FW have done in the past.

The vents are from the Baneblade

I can see where you are coming from with this, but from my perspective even the most dogmatic and blinkered commander can see the merits of camoflage of some desription, even if its only to mitigate the amount of casualties/damage taken in battle.

Plus I see knights as more of a ambush predator, they aren't fast enough to outmaneuver tanks on an open battle field and thus would have to play to their strengths of greater rough terrain ability and agility.

Great work one more time, I like the mix with the sentinel parts an agree with a red scheme over various metallic colors.

Thanks for the input mate, maybe I'll do another one in the future and do it red, but its just not gelling with my idea of a knight atm.

Glad I could make you happy mate I hope the paint doesn't disappoint.

It's looking awesome! Great work as usual! I'd also go for camo to tie it in with the rest, but then add a little bit extra to make it stand out, like BeatTheBeat said.
