Finally getting some painting done (darn 2 year olds and their wacky sleep schedule!).

Need another week to finish completely. Anyone going to Templecon will see it done there.

More pics here (http://www.pbase.com/tepoc/ekarchev).

*Removed early WIP pics 30/12/2009. Scroll down to see updated pics.*


Gotta stop staring at it and finish!
Cheers!

Here's some updates. Painting is generally done, now just some battle damage and weathering.

More pics here (http://www.pbase.com/tepoc/ekarchev&page=2).

Karchev

Note the back left shoulder where Karchev has had a marker of his defeat of the Cathmore clan home of Northguard added to show that that part of his history is now behind him.

The xed out painted decal on the back left arm is a swan over a rook (the symbol of Northguard, Cathmore ancestrial family home, now known as Karchev's garage).

Read Legends and you'll know why.

More of my army is here: pbase (http://www.pbase.com/tepoc/warmachinekhador)

Very solid paintjob. Love the details. You realize, of course, that there's no way in hell you're going to be able to claim 'cover' with that model?

Just wondering... How tall is he now? I wonder how difficult it will be to put him in base to base with other models... I do like the Ironclad crapped out the side...

Sure I will, that pile of dead bodies that used to be your army would provide cover to anything...

I haven't measured him yet but I know that he's at least 6" tall, but an Extreme Warpwolf still towers over him.

Originally the Cygnar heavy was 1/2" higher but it wasn't supported as well as I thought and slumped a bit in the putty due to it's weight. I like it where it is though and I use some base templates to show where his towed jacks are so they don't have to rub against him. It also makes measuring the charges accurately after a power slide very easy to do.

Cheers!

I hate to say this but it reminds me of a Space Marine. :)

Regardless, it looks fantastic.

Awesome, great freehand on Karchev. Your 'Jack barn really makes me doubt my own Khador army now, I thought I had lots of 'Jacks for a Khador force but now I want to buy more, 6 doesn't feel like enough any more lol. :D
It's a nice touch that all of your 'Jacks have scenic bases too, it ties them all in nicely.
