A community dedicated to the universe of Warhammer 40k, a tabletop setting in the far, distant future.

This is a general community for 40k miniatures, art, lore discussion, and gameplay discussion.

Rules

  1. Keep it civil.
  2. No memeposts/shitposts. Memes are great but direct them to grimdank.
  3. Please mark any posts containing realistic nudity or realistic excessive gore/violence as NSFW; this rule mainly applies to cosplay and realistic drawings rather than miniatures. Being that 40k is inherently violent, this is a judgement call, and mods may occasionally request posters add tags.
  4. No political or social cause agenda pushing.

Finished the Knight (lemmy.world)
submitted 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago) by twotonebax@lemmy.world to c/warhammer40k@lemmy.world
 

Finished up my Knight in my Grey Knights color scheme/finish. Whole things is magnetized like crazy. Can swap out the masks, banners, shield, all the weapons, etc. Also magnetized the wrist joint on the fist so I could rotate it. I wanted to use the whole dang kit! (Including Sir Hekhtur) :)

Strung up a few LEDs to illuminate it. Rocks (made from wood chips from my yard lol) hide LEDs to shine up at the banner and chest. If/when I get brave enough, I'll attempt painting text :p

LEDs in the cockpit are fed through bare ethernet wire I strung down the sides and into the legs (WIP post).

If anyone has any suggestions for a micro LED, I'd like to tuck one behind the head and have it backlight through the face masks.

You should be very proud. I've always wanted a knight, and this is stellar work.
