I've been working on a new project.

Giving Knights a more austere and realistic approach, inspiring in tanks and aircraft of the Second World War.

With an old and dusty look, as if they were heroical machines with the scars of countless battlefields, with pilots dynasties.

What's better than a giant robot?
Of couse, a giant robot with a sexy pilot.

This one is the prototipe I have been working on, I´m happy whith it so I will create a little army with 5 or 6 of them.

Pilot and weapons are magnetized to allow diferent configurations.

Wow amazing "Real Life" style of painting, love the added touches like the Female Pilot and the rubble strewn base!

Very Masamune Shirow (Ghost in the Shell, Appleseed, etc): Fem pilots are always in skintight-might-as-well-be-naked piloting suits.
I really like the dusty battlefield weathering, and the name graphic on the left shoulder (Knight's left, not our's). Is the cockpit part of the kit? Or was that customized?

Also I would like to see more close-ups of the pilot.

Great job so far :) One question tho: Is the pilot your own sculpt? If it's a conversion or a ready bought model, could you share the source?

This one is the pilot, and the pilots of my next knights are going to be chousen from infinity bootleg range.

Did you seal the weathering powder yet? If so, what/how did you do it and keep the powdery look?

If I had to guess, I'd say it's from the Infinity Bootleg range.

It'd be a bit lazy if I just guessed and stopped there, though, so I looked it up, and sure enough: http://www.infinitythegame.com/infinity/en/2013/miniatures/lizard-pilot/

Great job! Love the weathering and the grim, dirty look... Very Sucker Punch with the adding of a babe! :)

Beautifully done figure and I love the custom interior. Not sure if it's intentional, but your pilot sure bears a resemblance to Rogue from the X-Men (comic version, not the films) what with the white and brown hair and yellow/green jumpsuit she's wearing.

Amazing. I applaud your skill, your aesthetics, the attention to detail, the overall execution. Kudos to you sir. And ignore the FB haters (I skewered a couple for you). I cant wait to see her noble sisters in complementing Knights.

Da Sausage Grot approves!

Second knight finished the "Agrax Belle", in this one there are more modeling and transformation work, repositioning the legs, and building new arms whith hands, one of the arms have the sield generator integrated, a little eldar knight stile.
