House Makabius, part 4

The Knights painting has started in earnest.  The metal is Tamiya Flat Aluminium applied with an airbrush.

This is the base FW used for their Cerastus Knight Castigator and I really like the colour.  I will be washing the chassis several times in a 1:1:1:1 mix of lahmian medium, seraphim sepia, nuln oil and water.  The gold trim is a pain, so I have ordered some retributor armour to see if I can reduce the number of coats required.  It's been five coats so far on the Acherons carapace, and its translucent in places still.

I had a brain fart while sorting out the armoured fuel lines, and got the two ends mixed up.  I happily started shaving down the end that should attach to the gun!  This will set the build back while I fix it, but I can add it later I suppose.

This week I hope to get all the armour plates painted for all four Knights. The transfer set is out next week and my set is on order. So next weekend, I want to get these applied. 

Finally, Look what arrived Friday!

The long hobby war contiunes...
