Waiting in the wings

I'm afraid I don't have anything to post this week, as I have been working on my music recently and doing a lot of other things (like protesting). I have, however done some building and spraying, so I have quite a lot on my painting shelf now. So many choices, when I finally sit down and paint! What can you spot?

Legio Custodes Contemptor-Galatus Dreadnought

In order to provide my Custodes Knight with some company in battle, I have painted up this Legio Custodes Contemptor-Galatus Dreadnought. That's a long name, so let's give him an actual name. Meet Sentiren Gestus, Guardian of the Imperium.

The model took a while to figure out when building, but I got there in the end. I also discovered recently that I was using bad superglue, and it's not normal to hold something for half an hour to discovered that it still hasn't dried and the model has fallen apart, and I now have some decent superglue to hold resin models together. This this dreadnought hasn't fallen to pieces yet! Hooray!

I used the same gold technique as on the edges of Horus's armour, mixing white with Retributor Armour, albeit on a larger scaled than on Horus. The sword, as you can see, uses a slightly more perfected version of the technique used on the recent space marine captain.

Now to paint some actual Custodians!
