October 2022 - Deceivers

With the UK summer heat a now distant memory I’ve been able to get back into my man-cave to get spend hobby time on my backlog again.

To also celebrate the launch of the Bot War discord server, and kick-start my Bot War focus as I get ready to run a demo table at Warfare Weekend in November I have decided to get my Deceivers painted up.

 

This won’t be like previous painting challenges done this year.  It is already the 3rd October so painting everyday won’t be a thing, and I have around 6 weeks until the convention, so I just want to chug along over the next few weeks to get one of the most powerful and movable bot war factions tabletop ready.

Taking the models from 3 boxsets; Narcitron’s Sins afn Megatyrant’s Revenge faction boxes, the Terror in the Air booster, plus a couple of promo models I have got 26 bots to paint up.

The Narcitron's Sins models are some of the original resin models Traders Galaxy put out for Bot War  and come in the light grey resin. The details are superb and there was barely any cleanup requiredThe Narcitron's Sins models are some of the original resin models Traders Galaxy put out for Bot War and come in the light grey resin.

The Terror of the Air and Megatyrant sets came in black resin, which is equally sharply detailed as the light grey, but I did find it required more cleanup and some heat treatment to straighten parts. It also felt more brittle which also resulted in me having to repair some thin details which had gotten damaged in my storage.... I've had some of these models for nearly 2 years now.

All models built, will drill and attach pins to their feet to assist with priming and painting, but for now I have all models ready to go into the painting queue.

Pinning? What’s wrong with just posterputty/bluetack? 😉
