Legio Astorum - Warlord Titan #4 - Work in Progress - Spare Arioch Power Claw

Hello Titanseers, welcome to more progress on the fourth Warlord... it came with a spare arm so I thought I'd paint it! This is a Warlord Titan Arioch Power Claw, and I have two more with Warlord "Ex-Noctia" No.10, but this one has the actual power claw attachments rather than the power fist variety. No in game difference, purely aesthetics - the Power Claw looks generally more vicious and heretical...

The Arioch Power Claw comes with a Vulcan Mega Bolter Array which sits on the back of the hand. This adds either a pip of strength or a Vulcan Mega Bolter depending on in game rule set. At 28mm Titan Walks we have been granting the Vulcan Mega Bolter rules even though we are playing AT28mm rules where it usually has just a pip of strength to CC attacks - but in a massive battle of 30-100 Titans, a dual fist Warlord barely makes it across the floor/board to use them, at least with it shooting as well, in the closing stages it can strip shields and have an in game effect even if it doesn't make it into combat!

I added some white stripes to one panel to match several of my Titan maniple armour designs.

The power cables were a pain to paint but came out okay.

I opted for yellow knuckles again to break up the mass of blues.

Here it is pictured with the less stabby Power-Fist variety from Warlord "Ex-Noctia", perhaps now I really do need to paint a left-hand Power Claw since both of these are the same side. I do have one still in the unfinished Legio Atarus colours Ex-Noctia came in.

Here Warlord "Ex-Noctia" is modelling the newest battlefield accessory...

Thanks for dropping by. The Rites of Colour for Warlord No.258 "Raptor Astra" continues.
