For The Guardroom, here are Guardian Drones from Blackstone Fortress. I have yet to see them in action, but they didn't thrill me whilst painting them. The carapace is Apothecary White and a white drybrush over a white undercoat.

They're big; on 50mm bases. If anything, I wish they were bigger- the damaged drone is smaller than its siblings. So I reckon 15 points for the pair. This finally gives me runs on the board for the GW challenge, but not a skull to be found! I've been pumping out daily posts for the last week, but this will slow down a bit now.
2x large things: 15 points
Guardroom: 20 points
GW Challenge: 15
Interesting models. They remind me of Martians. The colour scheme certainly works and, as usual, is very effective.
ReplyDeleteDefinite Martian vibe!
DeleteMan I hate spindle drones when they get worked up. Our party got the snot kicked out of us by one all because we were greedy and want the last treasure token that it was guarding.
ReplyDeleteNice painting though even without skullz
They haven't hurt me too badly- yet. Urghuls, however...
DeletePretty sure someone at Google has already deployed these things for a beta test.
ReplyDeleteNice brushwork Barks!
Jeff Bezos dropping off a package?
DeleteGreat work here! Love to see such models without metallics there as they just come together so much more! Wonderful work!
ReplyDeleteThank you very much!
DeleteSplendid looking drones, even I am painting something with a skull on it!
ReplyDeleteBest Iain
It is quite compelling to keep track.
DeleteStrange looking things, looks a bit like War of the Worlds 🌎
ReplyDeleteNice job

You're not wrong!
DeleteExcellent work Barks. Like Kyle, I like the NMM take on these. This reminds me that I've not yet picked up the set, so I should get a wiggle on.
ReplyDeleteThey have a tendency to become scarce!
DeleteAwesome looking drones, the colours you've used look ideal for these figures.
ReplyDeleteIt is not especially original, I'm afraid.
