Legio Astorum - Warbringer Nemesis Titan - Laser Blaster Weapon

Hello Titanseers, I've upgraded my Warbringer Nemesis Titan weapon arm from a Gatling Blaster to a Laser Blaster for better reach and shield penetration. After a couple of Titan Walks I found the Gatling Blaster too short ranged for the role the Warbringer Nemesis - it sits back in the back field and volleys fire into the enemy from afar. The extra range of the Laser Blaster and the Shieldbane will help drop shields before the main armament opens up! 
The weapon kill banner from the previous arm was re-mounted on the new arm using some small 2mm magnets.
To fit the power cables a small raising of the sockets was needed, I converted these from the elbow joints not needed for newer titans like the Warbringer Nemesis.
I added the heat staining to the muzzles using washes - Nuln, Drakenhoff Nightshade, Hormagaunt Purple and Seraphim Sepia.
The rear Mechanicus cog motif was painted and an Astorum sigil added to the centre.

Cheers, Siph (5pts)

Mechanicum / Adeptus Mechanicus - Secutarii Axiarch

Hello Titanseers and all, thanks for dropping by. The recent released Forge World characters peeked my interest when there was a character to lead my Mechanicum Secutarii forces, a Secutarii Axiarch.
He/It is armed with an Arc Lance and Mag-Inverter shield and sheltered by a harmonic Kyropatris Field Generator. The mini also has a pistol so not sure what rules that will have.
The Arc Lance was a 12in, S6, Assault 1, AP-1, Dmg1 weapon, but when damaging vehicles is D3 damage. In melee it is also S+3, so S6, AP-1, Dmg1 and against vehicles D3 damage. The Kyropatris Field Generators so have a 5++. Where the Shield comes into force is in melee, it gives a 4++ against melee weapons and if an unmodified save from a melee weapon hit is a six - that inflicts a mortal wound on the attacking unit after the attacks have been resolved - back in your face! I hope this made it into Legends for 40K rules not just 30K, regardless, it's a cool mini I had to have to lead my 50 Hoplites and 50 Peltasts.
Legio Astorum sigil on his cloak to mark his devotion.
And protecting his charge, a Warhound Titan, from infantry attacks.

Relictors Space Marine Chapter - Terminator Captain w/ Thunder Hammer

Hello Readers, thanks for dropping by. I have added a Terminator Captain to my extensive Relictors Battle Companies. These are obviously 1st Company which bolster the 5th and 4th Companies. This was the Blood Angel Captain from the Start Collecting boxset.
I removed all the blood drops I could find, leaving only the leg greave, blood-drop engraved bolt casing and the leather pterges.
In place of the blood drops, I added Crux Terminatus icons, on the chain to front and back and Thunder Hammer. And I added a 'tactical' Storm Talon engine nacell of some unfortunate Ultramarine to stand on, (maybe Lord H's?) angling the head and arm to look downwards slightly. 
The shoulder already comes with a raised Skull icon, which suits my vast array of Relictors badges already done using the skull decal, swapping only recently to the custom side-skull decals, so this one can stay as.
