There are two Apothecaries that are assigned to the army. Naturally, they get jump packs for more efficient door-to-door surgery. They also get fancy squiggly spears. I think the next White Scars minis will be the dreadnoughts.

I did a batch of these with pointy claws in the last Mechanicum commission and now more are needed, but with power paws. Hazard yellow with black accents and a good amount of iron and brass. You can tell they’ve gone to work already due to the blood splatters. I’m told a squad of these are a terror on the battlefield.
For the first time in forever, I have recorded my painting on one of the Ursarax. Over the next little while, I will be editing that video and posting it on Youtube. Hopefully, my new desk setup and lighting work out so the footage is usable.

With the completion of the bolter bikes, the Outriders are now complete. They all have some sort of power weapon, I think they are going to be used as some sort of special weapons unit.
Included is also the Warlord on bike. He is the one doing a wheelie and has a glaive. I was also asked to paint some eagles and one of them is attached to a base. It looks like it’s going to be some kind of marker during the game.
The next batch for this commission will be some Mechanicum models, but they are getting prepped for painting, so I will be painting more Harlequins right now.

The next few bikes are done. They’re the first of the bolter bikers and are equipped with fancy weapons.

Finished another handful of bikes. 6 more plasma bikers with a couple chainsword wielders. There’s a few more plasma bikers to go before I get to the bolter bikers.

It’s been a while, building and getting the pieces ready to paint for these guys. But, since I’ve gotten started on them, progress will be fast. This is the first batch and the other 13 bikes are on the way! Like the rest of the White Scars, there’s a mud/trench theme for the bases so I made sure to include a lot of weathering.

The second batch of jetbikes are done! Lots of mud and weathering were added to the bases and bikes so it looks like they’re currently fighting. I’m still loving the narrative of the stone faces with the chain attach. I’m told this battlefield could be the battle for Terra, so the faces could be getting pulled down or blasted off.
I’m in the middle of building the Outriders, so in the mean time I will be painting some Harlequins.

The first batch of jetbikes are done.
Like the Xiphon and Chaplains I already did, there is a lot of dirt and weathering on the bikes. They are currently in battle, in white armour, so I imagine it gets dirty. The bases further expand on my theme of these. Some stone faces are attached with chain so it looks like an excavation is going on. I think I’ll add more wood pathways for the trench works part of the theme.

Group shots are up. I will be shipping this half of the commission to its forever home after the holidays. Such a great mix of minis.

The last 2 Termite Drills are done! Split into a yellow one and red one like the half termites. They are still dirty as if they just came out of the ground.
The yellow one is the one that got its insides painted and the doors left opened.
The red one had a door that was missing, so I had to cast it in greenstuff. It came out with a bit of a flaw so I decided to paint that part of the door as heat stressed and it kind of looks warped. So I think it works! There is a some burnt paint as well with a bit of beveling so it kind of looks like it has some depth to it.
All the termites have Volkite weapons equipped and in relatively pristine condition since they hide in their compartments.
This is the last of the first half of the commission. The next half is all jetbikes and marines. Exciting!
