Originally tha Machine Wraith seemed like a powerful addition to the Cryx army, because it could take over warjack and even if it was booted out by the enemy warcaster the warjack would still be inert for a round. However that changed with the arrival of the full escalation rules for the Machine Wraith so […]
Not much to say here. The Mechanthralls are painted simular to the Scrap Thralls except their metal bits are not coloured since they are not build out of enemy warjacks but in the depth of the Dragon Lord’s caves.
Goreshade the Bastard I decided to make Goreshade stand out from the rest of my Cryx by painting him in a white armour with a worn metal look because being Elvenkin he would still have retained some of his arrongance and pride and would therefore be an undead with style. I am very happy with […]
The Skarlock has a blue skin colour than the other Thralls because it is more magical. Since my Cryx is a paint for play army I didn’t want to spend to much time on it. However, I did want magical signs on his body and the cloth hainging from his hands so I painted geometrical […]
Necrotechs All my Necrotechs have some degree of customisation in order to make them look individual. One has had his right arm replaced with a Ork Runtherd arm and his left arm replaced with an arm from a Scrap Thrall. The other two have had some small conversions made using bits mostly from a Neo […]
Deathrippers The Death Rippers that follows the paint scheme I decided to go for: Drybrush, drybrush and drybrush. Only “real” painting has gone into the bonebits. The Slayers have simular bars on the lower back to those ribs of the Bonejacks. So I decided not to paint them as metal bars but rather as ribs to […]
Deneghra is very much painted in the same manner as the Warjacks because I don’t think Cryx is the realm where you polish your armour a lot. However the armour is only a small part of the mini. The bigger part is the insanely flapping cloak which I painted in a white color with […]
Drybrush, Drybrush and some more Drybrush. One of them have had the arms re-positioned into an all-out attack pose to make them look different. Can I just say for the record that yes, the Slayers are not much stronger or durable than the other factions light jacks, but so far I have yet to play […]
After coming to a satisfactory result on my first attempt at non-metalic-metal I decided to use it on my Cryx minis. Unfortunately after spending hours on painting my prototype (right) I came to the conclusion that it looked too much like a toy and decided to go for another paintscheme which you can see on all other minis in […]
Cryx Colourscheme After the Deathripper Prototype I decided to paint my jacks completely metal! Why completely metal? well, Necrotechs builds the Warjacks out of dead men/ animals and raw machinery/ metal by magically fusing them. I don’t think they care for painting them. The colour of the army is provided by the Scrap Thralls which have the […]
So this is where it all starts! I have been invited to kick Union’s ass, more specifically Mocaiv’s Union’s Ass. As the game came close it was clear to me that BootCamp was turning up as well with the Growlers. Below are some of my comments and thoughts on these games. Let me first run through the […]
This is the 3rd battle between me and Mocaiv and the second between me and Bootcamp. This is my first 3 person battle. Below are some of my comments and thoughts on these games. Whoops! Forgot how many points we played: 500 points each (thanks to Techromancer for noticing this error). Let me first run through the […]
