#knight dominus

[yesterdayserror]

After just over a month of work I finally finished my Knight Dominus, I'm immensely proud of this and I'll consider it my greatest work on a model for some time. Close-ups of the guardsman + some lore under the cut:

The Skyblaze, a freeblade Knight Dominus, is a mysterious entity appearing and disappearing at a moment's notice. But to the Ben Nevisan 13th, a regiment with a reputation for their experience against the Great Enemy who constantly assail their home, they know it as one thing: Their Guardian.

Appearing when they are in their greatest need, The Skyblaze stands forth as both rally point and bastion for the 13th, enabling them to continue fighting well beyond what they would have been able to otherwise.

No one knows who pilots this mysterious protector, or why it defends the 13th of Ben Nevis so fiercely. But the strangest thing about this particular knight is that even if it falls in battle, it soon appears anew, with only a few small scars on it's carapace whenever the 13th needs their guardian once more.

(And now for some IRL lore: I bought this for a random paint challenge at my local warhammer store and went a bit nuts over it lmao, it's probably the most fun I've ever had working on a warhammer model. If I ever do a guard army I am absolutely using this paint scheme as this was really fun to do as well)

In case you missed it, there are now prototype rules available for the Knights Armiger and Dominus in Horus Heresy.

Questoris Knight Armiger

Questoris Knight Dominus

Hopefully we’ll see some of those Questor Mechanicus upgrades here, shortly.

A friend heard that you could take Knights in Adeptus Titanicus and came prepared to throw down. Ten thousand points of House Payne, on parade.

The Knights Cerastus are converted up from the plastic kit and do a great job of recreating the Forge World look. The Porphyrion is the authentic article, however. If it looks familiar, that's only because it's been on this blog before.

Here we see a rout of Imperial Knights in its native habitat.
