The model is fun and has some natural lines to it, making painting it straight forward. This finishes up my Imperial Navy aircraft, at least until they add more.</p><p>The Avenger and Vultures are the first Imperial Navy aircraft at this scale that were not in the first Aeronautica Imperialis iteration. I like them as a niche aircraft, but that makes them very scenario driven. In generally that is something my games have missed - reasons to take aircraft other than primary fighters.</p><p>Up next, not sure. The Ork Megabommer is sitting in front of me; I have Titanicus terrain to continue to work on; 4 aircraft support Adeptus Titanicus in various ways, and a slew of unbuilt plastic and resin. Not sure yet.</p><p><br /></p>Robhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11095372594370561394noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2736927809835164714.post-6389632521028504252021-02-16T09:00:00.001-08:002021-02-16T09:00:00.666-08:00Knights Completed, Aircraft in Work<p> More full update, since it has been a few weeks.</p><p>Last weekend, I completed the 4 additional Questoris Knights for my House Vornherr Lance banners.

Initially, I wanted something <i>cathedral</i> like, but that does not fit with the idea of the Great Crusade's <i>Imperial Truth</i> and the 500 of Worlds of Ultramar. I needed something that invoked both the scale and grandeur of a cathedral, but with an entirely secular purpose - enter the <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Basilica" target="_blank">Basilica, in the Roman tradition</a>.</p><p></p>"The Great Crusade-era (M31) Imperial Basilica serves as a hub of post-compliance activity. It houses multiple Imperial offices to further integrate a world into the overall Imperium of Man. It also serves as a hub for mercantile activity, providing a safe, neutral environment for off-world traders to interact with local nobility, merchants, or industrialist. The offices of the Basilica include local language to/from Low- and High-Gothic translators, money exchangers, local and Imperial legal scholars, and other pertinent services to enable integration of the world's region into the broader context of the Imperium."<div><br /></div><div>Importantly, the Basilica is not an Imperial Governor's Palace. The Basilica and its services would evolve to be the Adeptus Administratum. On worlds that became more regressive in the wake of the Horus Heresy, the individual Basilica would transform into cathedral fortresses, their often neighboring Forum turned to landing pads for Valkyries and Vultures. Only in some sectors of the Imperium, like Ultramar, would they retain a semblance of their original purpose.<br /><p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><br /><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgZlFzWano7zimX70AW0gQlHaWJNY1_4awGyM71f3tGT3o55TaOG6y_iIh6gFK1ccAaUvLmbiZ5aCKdEsv3B5V221G39xEcH1H2gFi7iYifrR4wAhq4bf2iloCLv_b5W12UddmC0dVoaUCC/s4032/PXL_20210106_060337133.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" data-original-height="4032" data-original-width="3024" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgZlFzWano7zimX70AW0gQlHaWJNY1_4awGyM71f3tGT3o55TaOG6y_iIh6gFK1ccAaUvLmbiZ5aCKdEsv3B5V221G39xEcH1H2gFi7iYifrR4wAhq4bf2iloCLv_b5W12UddmC0dVoaUCC/s320/PXL_20210106_060337133.jpg" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">Under Construction</td></tr></tbody></table><br /><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhkjUXkfsW8DvZcNFyMHdKKhqc-UPLVvHnI5wxO7gVXPOVevKkCJ0u3cBG_zO9hn62xmqZ6Jt5tbnLOKRtvUDVpfwy4hNoPAVDPkSNky8Lkzmo_oax-jbGo4j2xBtOWC9B4wSgA2v7fMpT6/s3024/PXL_20210104_053325323.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" data-original-height="3024" data-original-width="3023" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhkjUXkfsW8DvZcNFyMHdKKhqc-UPLVvHnI5wxO7gVXPOVevKkCJ0u3cBG_zO9hn62xmqZ6Jt5tbnLOKRtvUDVpfwy4hNoPAVDPkSNky8Lkzmo_oax-jbGo4j2xBtOWC9B4wSgA2v7fMpT6/s320/PXL_20210104_053325323.jpg" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">Original plans for the Basilica</td></tr></tbody></table><br /><br /><p></p></div>Robhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11095372594370561394noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2736927809835164714.post-10913544144149972762021-01-05T09:00:00.001-08:002021-01-05T09:00:09.478-08:00Holiday Activities<p> Over the holiday, I hung out at my brother's home.

They were a departure from my normal colors and allowed me to focus on details. They also let me include techniques I had learned on previous projects, like weathering. I also utilized the Contrast paints in combination with regular paints.</div><div><br /></div><div>I luckily got the basing information from my brother and his commissioned painter. I am hoping they look solid alongside his Tiger Eyes and that he is interested in using them alongside his Tiger Eyes.</div>Robhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11095372594370561394noreply@blogger.com2
