Warmachine: Helljack!

Finished this Warmachine plastic kit last week and took some pics. I did manage to magnetize the arms and head to create greater customization.











Since these pics were taken I have gone over the pipes with black and cleaned a few other issues up. I was leaning toward running Cryx for WM, but now I may switch to the Retribution of Scyrah. I got a nice offer for the few Cryx models I've finished, so they will find a good home.

Did Mortenebra sour me on Cryx? Maybe. I'm a changeable sort though, and when I took a closer look at some of the Scyrah pieces (especially Adeptis Rahn), I realized I liked what I saw a whole lot. And my buddy Rico has Cryx pretty well covered. With nobody else in our local group doing Retribution, I thought I might try my hand at them instead.

Of course, I will post pics of any Scyrah stuff I finish here on the blog!

    I'd say most certainly. She is a difficult caster to use. Try playing with someone easier to use like Skarre or Deneghra. Also, the Reaper is a bit of a support Jack. Use a Slayer and some Bonejacks.

  2. Thanks! Since she is now off to a good home along with the other two Cryx models I did, she is somebody else's problem! ;-)

    Here's hoping Adeptis Rahn provides a more pleasing hobby experience--could anything be any worse than Morty?

  3. There are a few more casters that are more problematic but none of them are Retribution figs
