What a lovely model. Its one of the Mechanicum range from FW and was a "whats that? I'm buying that!" insta purchase when I saw it, as I've never really owned a decent mechanicus model.

However - what a hassle to build. Truly awful design choices made in some of the elements of this model and the servitors. Some of the arms are supposed to be held two 2mm joins with a coupler inbetween, which is never going to take the strain of the weight. Poorly designed and I have no idea why not just have the arm glue straight to the back?

Accordingly, these models are held together with 50% glue, 50% verbal abuse.

Painted really nicely - I used a weathering ink from AK interactive and white spirit on these as the full shading, rather than just for specific areas as I usually do, to give it a test and it came out very well. Not sure I'd do that across a full army though, but good for characters like this.
