Dreadtober 2026 - Week 4 - Necron 'Knight' - Amuntek Obliterator COMPLETED

Hello All, thanks for dropping by! A new classification of hidden construct has been discovered by some unfortunate Mechanicus Technoarcheologists team, last heard from when these pict captures were sent...
Dreadtober is an annual event held over the month of October where hobbyists pledge to do a dreadnought-sized model from the to-do pile and get it finished, starting 1st Oct and hopefully completing 31st Oct (Halloween/All Hallows Eve)
This is the completed titanic walker construct I have named the Amuntek Obliterator, 'the hidden one' after the ancient terran Egyptian God Amun. A fitting name for a colossus war machine not yet been discovered by the Imperium's interactions with the Necron Dynasties until now!
I will play this in friendly games of Warhammer 40k as counts-as Imperial Knight, either an Imperial Knight Questoris Paladin/Errant/Preceptor with the gun arm and close-combat flail arm, or swappable for a secondary gun arm played as a Crusader variant Imperial Knight Questoris. The top Gauss Cannon can be used as a carapace option for the 'Knight'
The cannon is made from the original toy Gauss Flayer and a Doomsday Ark Cannon.
The secondary leg stabilisers akin to the T'au Stormsurge are from a Canoptek Reanimator.
The curved 'spine', feet, Flail mechadendrites and power hoses are from a Tesseract Vault spares when building an Obelisk. The leg greaves and terrain are from Tombworlds terrain pieces.
I added a Tachyon Crystal matrix on the rear (in turquoise) and several Canoptek Scarabs undergoing repairs over the body of the construct.
The close combat flail tipped with cut down Void Blades from the Triarch Praetorians kits. The Canoptek Reanimator 'Reanimator Ray' assembly has been mounted on the left shoulder as a counts-as Heavy Stubber/hull mounted weapon option for the 'Knight'.
The alternative magnetised forearm gun assembly, using Catacomb Command Barge spare Tesla Destructors as a counts-as Avenger Gatling Cannon.
The face visage is made from Triarch Praetorian torso and the Tesseract Vault construct, flanked by two Canoptek Reanimator shoulder mounts.

So thanks again, and great work to all the Dreadtober-teers this year, thanks for the inspiration and the Dreads! And thanks to Marc (Old School Gaming) for keeping the hobby event alive for another year! It really motivated me to progress and get this project finished, thanks All.

Cheers, Siph. (20pts)
