Adeptus Titanicus - Titans in Manufactorum - Cerastus Knight Lancer TO DONE!

Afternoon #warmongers and #warhammercommunity I've been #paintingwarhammer #AdeptusTitanics on my Cerastus Knight Lancer. Apologies, it would appear I haven't really recorded any progress on this since April last year. It seems unfair to dump a finished model out of nowhere, but here we are.


The Lancer had got to a stage where I'd done all the metal work, the base [obviously] and the red had been shaded.


So, all that was left was highlight the red, any battle damage, weather the bronze, glow FX and all the markings...


Because I wanted it to match the full scale Lancer I already have.


I'm guessing its a common urge to recreate in miniature, your bigiature.


At some point I'll therefore be compelled to paint up 3 Questoris Knights, 2 as sHouse Raven and one as my Freeblade Euronymous.


I was not especially looking forward to all the markings, freehanding the Raven symbol seemed ridiculous - but a black triangle with yellow halo and lightning wasn't too hard.


The lightning was really easy in fact, it was putting the cogs on the halo that was dodgy, it was so small my fixes work [for a distance].


And here's a 360 spin






The white cog symbol on the black half of his left shin is actually a decal, cut in half.


 

 

So, is this not the cutest little model ever?


Or is it this? Just think, the Cerastus Knight of today is as tall as a Reaver Titan of yesteryear. Amazing and sad in equal measures.


For reasons I can't explain, this I gets me my Great Big Granite Stamp of Approval - TO DONE! Rather than a 'Minor', dunno why that is, but that's what fits in my head.

  1. Cute indeed! Great copy of the big boy. I have a bunch of my own languishing in foam while I've been concentrating on the big titans. This model inspires me to get 'em out!

    1. I've the two Warhounds and a Reaver stood staring at me wondering about their completion... I've a couple of projects on the go at the moment, once they're done the Titans may very well get their turn. I think I'm even at aa stage where I can finish the Land Raider...
