Welcome Readers, thanks for dropping by. My latest addition to the growing Vassal Knights Banner for Legio Astorum, a Questoris Class Knight Errant.
Meet Sir Maximilian riding 'Pride of Lucius'
I used a number of decals from the Baneblade sheet and Imperial Guard sheets to depict the personal heraldry of Sir Maximilian over the existing stripes, the only panels I left from the original scheme. The yellow was FW Clear Sigsmund Yellow over a white base, with Citadel Yellow wash in the recesses to darken them.The rear Pauldrons is where the Vassal Knights of Astorum show their loyalty to the Imperium.
The base was modelled with some ruins, I added some sand and gravel, grass tufts and reinforced the feet with some sand piles and painted to match my own forces. The Reactor Housing got my customary brass finish.
Here you can see the hazard stripes that caught my eye, and the replacement Heavy Stubber. Decals were from the OOP FW Legio Astorum decal sheet. I also repainted the toes to match my other Knights.
This was the eBay rescue, not a bad job and magnetised arms. The blue was a lighter blue and I had to repaint extensively with the exception of some trim pretty much. I liked the two tone scheme, the heat staining on the Thermal Cannon and the price (about a 1/3 RRP). I had a missing chest plate which I don't mind and a missing Heavy Stubber I replaced using a Primaris one.
That's now 19 Knights and Armigers... still have that box of Renegade to start and another Questoris Knight to complete...

Dang Siph, that is a thing of beauty!
ReplyDeleteI always liked Legio Astorum's symbols, so many cool Titan badges and colour schemes. This works so well on a knight and all the decals and heraldry really make this ebay rescue a triumph.
ReplyDeleteThat's a LOT of knights. Looks fantastic mate, love the bright colours.
ReplyDeleteA fine addition; great work! You have quite the parcel of knights there...
