P-VLOG Building The Adeptus Mechanicus Army

We get stuck into a discussion about what we should be including in the army. Of course we have to pick out some of those awesome new models from the Adeptus Mechanicus army but we might add in a few surprises as well!

It's now time to put the planning aside and actually work on building the army. We've got a lot of plastic to get through so we show off how we're going to be building stuff to keep organised. Phew...wish us luck!

So now it's time to get priming. I wonder what we should work on first. Warren also takes some time to play around with a rather large mechanical beast we have here in the studio...

Ok well that's a lot of red for us to get through! It's now time to start adding the details to the massive army we've got waiting on the tabletop. There's such a lot of choice that it's hard to pick out what to start with...

Where would you begin?

Khrystan gets stuck into showing us how we actually got started on the Servitors for this army. He'll be going into detail about the various stages that we go through to bring them up from the base colour and make them stand out on the tabletop.

Every good army needs a leader and we've got a number of different characters we're going to be using to lead the way in our games of Warhammer 40,000. What do you reckon to the work we've put in to make these fellows stand out from the rest?

We're back to look at how the Adeptus Mechanicus army is coming together by checking out what stage some of the rest of our models are at. We get a closer look at a lot more of our finished models and consider what we're going to work on next.

Now we've finished him here's a better look at one of our leaders for the Adeptus Mechanicus army. We're pretty proud of how he turned out!

We're back chatting about how we finished work on the basing for this army. We think it ties everything in nicely and that's the key with a base - don't overwhelm the model either!

Choosing the colours for our Adeptus Mechanicus force was a hard one. We wanted them to stand out from the model but also be tied into their theme and the overall scheme. So, see what we went for here and let us know if you like the results.

We couldn't resist seeing how army was taking shape and how they would appear on the tabletop. The Adeptus Mechanicus really are one of the most striking armies to have on the tabletop in their bright red!

We're back with another close up on some of the work we did to get the Sydonian Dragoon looking spectacular on the tabletop. We're proud of how these turned out with such a simple scheme...

We take a look at the big vehicles for the Adeptus Mechanicus and try and come up with some ways in which we might go about finishing them off. Also - do you need to base Walkers?

We have a chat about how we're going to go about basing the army. We want it to look as much like the surface of Mars as possible but how do we achieve that?

It's time to work out how we're going to paint the second of our big Imperial Knights (from DreamForge Games) that will be supporting our troops on the battlefield and giving us some additional punch!

It's time for a special video where we take you through just how we're going to be painting the second of our Knights. Take a look at the various stages we went through in making this model come to life from base coating onwards...

Now it's time to start making these Adeptus Mechanicus warriors look like they have been through the ringer a bit! We show you how to do battle damage on the rather impressive Knight we have working for our Mars based robot lovers...

To finish things off see what you think of the finalised Imperial Knight. This should be a big red mean foe for your opponents to have to contend with on the tabletop. Impressive AND useful...

We now finish off work on the Imperial Knight thanks to DreamForge Games with a look at how we can make it pop that little bit more on the battlefield. These kind of details are key to get right as you don't want to overload the model with guff!
