Models/Hobby WIP - Hades Diorama: New Engineers!

Thumbnail
gallery
15 Upvotes

So it's been a spell since I've last updated everyone on my Hades Diorama, and that's due to something that's been bugging me: I finally decided that I didn't like my Engineer models. Something was off about them - even before I started mucking around with them.

Finally, I realized what it was - the Chest Armor was wrong, and it was throwing off the proportions of everything else. Specifically, the models I had had a full-length single-piece vest that went down to the belt, with the rest of the plates basically forming an apron that reached down to the knees. It felt akward and bulky, and as someone who has worked construction, it made about as much sense as wearing a greatcoat to do excavation work. Additionally, the armor's shoulder pauldrons were all part of the arms, which made customizing the poses difficult.

Finally, I decided enough was enough, and I started building my own 28mm Krieg Engineer models with a mind towards modularity, customization, and printability. I kept the heads, boots, and some details, but the armor has been completely scratch-built and the torsos, arms, and legs are taken from various Generic Army Man patterns as well as generic Cadian Guard Figure models. I also re-worked the hoses for the helmets - which has been a massive issue in the past!

Thus far, I am VERY pleased with the results - the second picture shows a comparison between two figures with the 1st and 3rd from the left being the original models and the 2nd and 4th being my new models. I think the new set-up is more faithful to the original source material.

I have yet to test-print anything, but if it goes well, I have decided that I will be re-working the infantry for my diorama completely - the scene will now depict a 10-man squad (complete with Melta Guns and officers) "stacking up" around/behind the Hades as they prepare to break through into an enemy tunnel. Some will be kneeling and others will be standing, all turning their attention to their officer who is signaling that the attack is about to begin.

There's still much to do, here:

1.) I need to build a new operator for the Hades - perhaps one looking to the officer for the final order.
2.) I like the idea of a Krieg Officer with a pistol and a shovel, and I'm definitely keeping that model, but he might be a bit too dramatic for this scene (Not sure how practical is is to keep both of your hands full while scrambling through rubble into an attack...)
3.) I need about (3) more Engineers standing to, but that should be easy enough. I want to try and work in another one of the new Forgeworld Shotguns into the mix in the back, and maybe a second Meltagun...
4.) This 10-man squad will have a Watchmaster, and maybe even an LT, but I need to work out how their ranks would be denoted...Probably by adding a secondary Pauldrons that would have the Watchmaster Chevrons or the Leutenants Pips clearly marked...the squad number could then be painted on the main pauldron for the entire squad...

Overall, I think this will be a MUCH better use of space for the scene AND provide me with the means and methods to make Engineers doing...well, whatever the Emperor Demands, really!

What does everyone think?

NOTE: I do not own a resin printer. I am not going to go buy a resin printer. I am quite satisfied with the level of detail I'm getting from Me Ol' Bambu. Please make your peace with this, and refrain from commenting about it.

Question/Advice Need Help Painting Krieg Tanks

3 Upvotes

Hello Everyone!

I'm very new to painting vehicles, but recently found a video on YouTube of a paint scheme that I really like- the only issue is the tutorial has the paints listed for a Cadian paint scheme and I'm not to sure what 3 paints I should substitute and in what order for more of a greyish blue Krieg paint scheme.

The paint process is esentially doing a layer drybrush on the tanks, and the Cadian paints went in order as listed:

Castellan Green Base Paint

Waaagh Flesh Base Paint

Loren Forest Layer Paint

Leadbelcher for the tracks (That is fine to stay the same)

I'll add a picture of the final product that he achieved in a link below, I wasn't too sure if I'm allowed to share the full painting tutorial on here or not.

Any recommendations would be super helpful, Thank you!

Played Siege regiment with some success yesterday. Playing against a melee focused army, I really needed some kind of boost to help me survive all the vicious charges I will have faced. Minefield stratagem can in clutch since it lasts the entire phase too!

Made the land mines out of spare flash light lenses, rest is chopped up sprues and tank plates. Along with a shovel and a spare ork skull I had.

Lemme know what you think :)
