Adeptus Custodes - Shield Captain in Allarus Terminator Armour

Hello All, thanks for dropping by. Had a spare Allarus Terminator with the Shield Captain Pauldrons so painted up the few details to make as a Shield Captain for sale on eBay rather than a generic Allarus Custodes. 

Added highlights to the plume, and skin

Painted the gold leaf thread in the cloak to mark out as a Shield Captain over a normal Allarus Custodes, and added detail to the Castellan Axe rather than have it plain and unadorned.

Painted the Ballistus Grenade Launcher and based the rim a more generic brown (Steel Legion Drab I think). Hopefully will find a new home as I am currently awash with Allarus Custodians... two squads of Custodes and already have a Shield Captain and Vexilus Praetor.

Cheers, Siph (10pts)

WIP - Deathwatch Captain with Jump Pack

Hello all,

This weeks offering is a couple of WIP pics of my Deathwatch Captain, with Jump pack. This model has been magnetised to allow hot swap of all the weapons on the sprue, and head options. Moreover, there is a 3D printed smoke stack, rather than the silly flimsy flying bases.

The model has had the same scheme as per my Deathwatch, with the jump pack having additional flashes of red to the vents. There is also an addition of a Primaris Relictor Helmet to the base.. what happened to the marine in question is a mystery.

Thanks for stopping by. LH

Squaduary 2026 - COMPLETED - Relictors Chapter Primaris Intercessors

Well, thats another Squaduary February hobby challenge for myself wrapped up. A successful month with a Titan Walk, some titan weapons and more importantly, a Squad of Primaris Intercessors which were languishing around since the release of First Strike boxed game back at the start of Primaris releases!

I removed the Sergeant helmet from the waistband, and added pouches in its place, added a disc to raise the helmet slightly and painted in codex compliant Red to denote his rank.

These two identical Marines (First Strike sprue had 3 different marines only) have had a Reiver arm replacement with combat blade and scabbard, whilst the Auspex holding Marine is box standard. Head placement direction also makes a difference.

These two identical Marines have had different head placement, and a few changes to Purity Seals. Removing one from a Pauldron, adding once to the waist and Bolt Rifle.

Another Primaris Intercessor 5-man Squad to add to the extensive Relictors Battle Companies, and 5 less Marines on the to-do mountain!

Thanks for dropping by, cheers, Siph (5pts)

Deathwatch Assault Intercessors with Jump Packs - Done! Squaduary 2026

Hello one and all,

This week's offering is my poor attempt at Squaduary 26 - being that I've posted 0 about them! These guys have been sat on my desk base painted for ages, so Squaduary was a great time to get them done!

These have been completed with the same scheme, and additional 3D printed shoulder pauldrons and flame stacks for the base.

Really happy with the results, now just to try them in game!

I did try to make a cool AI picture with them - quite like it, thus might do this from now on for completed models!

Thanks for popping by! LH (5pts)

Legio Astorum - Warlord Titan Dominus Victoria on Warhammer+

(Image from Warhammer Community)

Look out for this week's new releases on Warhammer+, among those being released on Friday is a feature by Open Play with an episode of a Titan Walk with the team of presenters and six of us from Titan Owners Club.

From the Warhammer Community article "We’ve recruited our friends in the Titan Owners Club for a truly humungous game of Adeptus Titanicus in Warhammer 40,000 scale! This is a truly epic battle that you really cannot miss, featuring more than a dozen Titans on each side, a custom floor mat filled with awesome terrain, and a smoke machine that may or may not have set off the fire alarm a couple of times when we did the filming. Check back on Friday to watch the God-Machines march to war."

Article can be found here - Warhammer Community You'll need a Warhammer+ subscription to see the episode.

Battle Bunnies blog Drake-Seta's Titans were also featured

And several REALLY BIG explosions! That's not CGI, rather, a practical effect! Looks good on telly!

Like a regular Titan Owners Club Walk, but with extra fancy lights, smoke, explosions and narrated by Toby Longworth no less! Awesome!

Cheers, Princeps Seniores Siph

Squaduary 2026 - Week 4 - Just basing and final details to complete - Primaris Intercessors

Hello All, thanks for dropping by to my Squaduary pledge progress, start of week 4, mostly finished with the Squad now, just weapon arms, basing and decals to complete this week ready for the end of the month quasi-deadline.

This Marine is pretty much completed, basing aside, Fallout Hobbies 'Side-Skull' Relictors badge applied and the other pauldron is Tactical Arrow and squad number.

Next week I will complete the details and basing and have the showcase finished Squad, another year of my Squaduary Pledge done, I know the Blogosphere is a lot thinned out now with the pull to inst-gratification media instead, but I continue to diary my hobby adventures for Lord TITANium to see and anyone else who happens to drop by, thank-you.

Cheers, Siph.

WIP Friday - Deathwatch

 Hi All,

A quick WIP post, I'm currently working on a Deathwatach Lieutenant, as well as built together a second one that I've printed myself. The Lieutenant has had the power weapon switched with a spare Necron weapon, akin to those used on other Deathwatch members.

 

The printed Lieutenant is armed with blades and a combi-weapon.

 Thanks for swinging by! LH 

Legio Astorum - Battle Titan Weapon Upgrades

Hi Titanseers, thanks for dropping by. I have been busy this month with Squaduary Primaris Marines but at the start of the month I had a Titan Walk at Bournemouth Beachhead, so in the run up to that I painted some more changeable weapon options. Above is Mons Vesuvius living up to its name, triple Volcanoes - (those 4 Servitor Clades will be used to expel the reactor heat in AT28mm!)

I bought a set of weapons in bulk (11 or so) from an abandoned project someone was planning, not expecting much from the lot as it was cheap however 1.5 Volcanoes were usable, along with six Apocalypse Missile Launchers. Yes, one Volcano Cannon was missing the rear heat sink radiator section. Lord TITANIUM printed me a replacement so above you can see:

• TOP - 3D printed radiator, Warhound cable replaced and a fan assembly where the capacitor flask was. Dorsal vent replaced.
• MIDDLE - 3D printed capacitor flask cylinder, dorsal vent replacement, magnets for banner in place of the missing cables. Lord TITANIUM will print some replacement side cables.
• BOTTOM - complete FW original.

The middle one has had some hose extensions on the top side to fit my Warbringer, manufactured from spare right-angle hose extensions that come with all FW Battle Titan Engines for fitting the old style side hoses of early Reaver titans. Newer Reaver and weapons have middle mounted hoses on the top side making left and right arm swaps easy.

Squaduary 2026 - Week 3 - Basecoated Minis Ready for Details - Primaris Intercessors

Hello All, thanks for dropping by to my Squaduary pledge progress, start of week 3, basecoats are all done, started with the basing material too. Details to get done this week, washing with Nuln Oil, then highlights on the grey, black and Brown. Then metallics and smaller details.

Of the two identical Marines, one has the Purity seal removed from right Pauldron, and has a Purity Seal added to the Bolt Rifle, whilst the other has an additional Purity Seal added to the left thigh plate to make slightly different silhouettes.

Next week as stated is I'm planning on painting the details... Let me know if you are partaking in Squaduary and I'll link here too.

Cheers, Siph.

New Printer set! P1S!

 Hello All!

 Just a quick post to show a 3d printing update,

I was fortunate to be given a Bambu Labs P1S printer, which I've set up this week.

 

This will be used primarily to print 40k terrain, buildings et al for my collection. My first print was the Benchy print to check all was good, then to print a Reaver head which will be used as a base for my next Warhound.

 

Cheers for stoping by! LH
