Manda’s (Amachan) Adeptus Mechanicus

The second batch of my transparent models…… I mean the bases for my Forge World Metalica Mechanicus force is done.

The first 10 Skitarii are build in sub-assemblies and ready for painting.

Test print of my custom transfer sheet for my Forge World Metalica Adeptus Mechanicus force, printed on normal paper for size comparison. More transfers need to be added to the final sheet.

I’ve been making a mess again with this whole pile of greenstuff dust. I sanded the tops of the bases smooth and now they can be painted. I will be painting them in batches since there are quite a lot of them.

Since I applied the greenstuff to the bases yesterday, it was dry now so I trimmed and sanded the edges tonight, now all is left is sanding the top and then on to painting.

I got all my bases covered for my Mechanicus force (pun intended).

There are a couple of changes I’m making to the army I’m building in this project.

• The 2 squads of 6 rangers will become 2 squads of 10 rangers with 3 Arc rifles and an Enhanced Data-Tether, the rest of these squads remain unchanged
• The 2 squads of 8 vanguard will become 2 squads of 10 vanguard with 3 Plasma Calivers, the rest of these squads remain unchanged.

I will also no longer attempt to put craters on the bases as was an idea I had earlier. I may experiment with this on bigger bases, but for now I struggle getting the rest of the bases as smooth as they are now and I’m happy with what I can make now.
