I have a bit of a thing for Dreadnoughts, of any flavour, but when it comes to my Thousand Sons, I find it a little baffling that they don’t have the Heresy Era dreads as Rubric Dreadnoughts.
So as with my earlier ones, I tend to just paint them up and use them as Helbrutes. I really like the Helbrute idea in the codex, but I think there is room for both concepts in the army. Either way, I think the Contemptors make great proxy’s. And look the part too!
When the Exalted Sorcerer kit was first released, I bought it straight away. And I instantly painted one, then, Just ten years later, I have finally got round to painting another!
This time, the chap on the disc. This is a great little kit, would be great to see them, and the entire Thousand Sons range, get the update treatment most marines have had in scale. Still a cracking kit though.
Not a huge fan of tanks, and vehicles in general, but thought it was about time I painted up a Predator tank for my Thousand Sons. Decided to go for a Heresy era model, that was caught up in the Rubric with minimal chaotic changes wrought upon it!
Two new units added to my Thousand Sons army. The two different variants of Sekhetar Robots.
Against my better judgement, I actually built these before painting them, as opposed to sub assemblies. I regretted it straight away, as there’s loads of little details, and they weren’t as open as I thought they would be.
I have been playing about with 3D printing recently, and I thought I would start with making my own armour kit for a Rhino tank. I’d do a lot different with the next project, but for a first go I am pretty happy with the result!
I decided to paint up the Heresy Librarian as a Sorcerer Lord for my Thousand Sons. I think I may end up using him as a second Infernal Master (may ven sculpt some lil daemons for his base at some point!), but I did originally intend for him to be a Sorcerer Lord.
Only 5 years after his release, and most of those years sat on my desk unpainted, I have finally painted up Ahriman!
Belting model this, but suffers from what a lot of recent GW models suffer from, very fragile details that seem to want to bend/break/snap off at the smallest provocation.
I have painted up a second squad of Scarab Occult Terminators for my Thousand Sons army.
As with most projects these days, I built these models before painting them, and if I am honest, this was a mistake. They are such highly detailed models, especially when it comes to painting the helms, that they have suffered a bit. I am not saying they look awful, just not happy with them in bits.
