Destroyer ready for action

I finished up assembling my Destroyer today, I decided to magnetize both warjacks in the arm joins - this will allow me to customize my warjacks once I buy the Heavy Warjack Kit which contains 4 different weapon loadouts (Destroyer, Juggernaut, Decimator and Marauder).

Some pictures of the assembled Warjacks:

Warmachine

Me and Laurents decided to try out Warmachine after Laurents bought a small Cryx army (intending to use them as 40k necrons). My fraction of choice are the Russian inspired Khador warriors, hailing from the ice cold northen region.

To start my army up I bought a battlegroup consisting of 2 warjacks and a warcaster along with a box of Widowmakers - a nifty 4 man sniper squad. All this add up to a quite potent 15 points army. Since I'll be beating up Cryx for starters the next addition is likely a Spriggan warjack and a unit of infantry - possibly Winter Guard or Iron Fang Pikemen. The Spriggan will take care of any of the Cryx stealthy units while the infantry is intended to shield my warcaster while tarpitting any problematic units.

The models in the latest battlegroup boxes are made from a plastic like resin, quite a bit harder and heavier than the GW plastic models, one downside to this material is that the usual plastic cement can't be used, the parts can only be glued with super glue like metal models.

I assembled my first warjack tonight, a Juggernaut melee orientated heavy jack. The intended pose for the model is quite boring so with a few modifications I managed to pose the model a bit more aggressively.

New stuff

One of my current projects is painting once of Laurent's buildings, since the initial wash emptied a full bottle of Badab Black Wash I ordered two 200 ml Serpia and Black washes to finished the job.

I am also working on a new case for the Deathwing models I bought, when its done it should be able to hold 40 terminators, 3 land raiders and 4 dreadnoughts. I also need to figure out how to mimic the paint job, so far I believe its a bone coloured spray with a either dark brown or black ink.
