Knight Questoris “Mechanicus”

The second questoris class knight I painted, this one is adorned with various adeptuc mechanicus skulls instead of the imperial eagles of the first. Hence its working designation of Mechanicus. In deference to this iconography, I chose a red-orange colorshift paint for its armor.

While the arms for these are magnetized, the carapace weapons (anti-air cannon here, missiles on the other) are not. However, I still painted them in the shared white color as this seemed appropriate to me.

I had sculpted a crater rim on this model’s base many years ago and tried to work that into the basing scheme, going much heavier on the rubble this time. I don’t think it really worked out, but I don’t dislike it enough to want to tear it all up and redo the basing. It’s unlikely I’ll do another knight in this same style, however.
