Conquest and a Juggernaut

Not a major update today, a rough shot of my Conquest in my standard 5th Border Legion, and a Juggernaut in a Unbreakable 111th Scheme I decided to experiment with. Conquest took the better part of 2 weeks, The Juggernaut was 8 hours of painting......




Dear God, the Rivets!!!!!!

Now I just need to get them appropriately based. The Juggy will probly never see table time under me as I dont plan on building a full Unbreakable 111th. My Conquest, which I refer to as Augie, a recently passed pet, recently helped me win a game in which it "Hulk Smashed" its way through 3 Circle Warbeasts and 1 Light Cav model without breaking a sweat under the command of Harkevich.

Until next time, Happy Hunting.

Red Army sold....Got a Conquest WOOT!!

Ok, so, my Red Khador Army sold. I picked up a conquest...... how couldn't I . So, I wanted to share my thoughts on this beautiful monstrosity, model wise at least.

All Scores 1-10

Quality - 7
Overall I give it a 7 because there are some pretty bad mold lines and some small bubbles  in a few resin pieces and a small but workable deformity in one of the larger resin pieces. Otherwise the metal didn't have alot of flash and the flash on the resin was ok, The pour/vent holes left sometimes in awkward places but it wasn't anything a bit of elbow grease didn't fix.

Fit and Form - 9
Once all the mold lines and flash is gone this model goes together like a dream. The lower legs are stuck in 1 pose but it is a dynamic pose and the upper body has so many possible poses that it can be positioned in a variety of ways making it a very dynamic model given its size. The legs being in 1 pose only got it the 9.

Aesthetics - 10
To me it hearkens to the blockyness of the metal jacks which I prefer, so a resounding 10 for me.

Once I get off my ass and finish painting it I will post some pics.
