How to Paint Mechanicum Battle Group: Castellax Battle-automata for Horus Heresy (Super easy)

#mechanicum #horusheresy #tabletopgaming

I got my hands on the new Mechanicum Battle Group box set thanks to ‪@officialwarhammer‬ and I immediately built one of the two Castellax Battle-automata. I hated building it but man I love the result! Super simple and quick scheme as always, and a few transfers and weathering to make it look like I spent a lot longer on it than I did! There's plenty of other cool stuff in this set, so let me know what else you'd like to see a tutorial on! I've already built the Triaros Conveyor...!

As always, creator copies of these set are produced in addition and do not take away from the copies made for retail!

Basing scheme:
AK Terrain Texture paste in Firelands-perfect dupe for Martian Ironcrust but a lot cheaper!
Allow each stage to fully dry in between!
Gryph-Hound Orange (contrast)
Ryza Rust (dry)
Screaming Skull (layer) Light drybrush over the top!

Thanks for watching!
