To make up the numbers in battle, Tech Priests and Engineers
rely on Servitors and Tech Guard. Fortunately, I already had several suitable
models from my Tech gang in Necromunda. Unfortunately, this beautiful Tech
Guard leader model is a limited edition piece. I was lucky to get one! |
This is another tech gang miniature, which should still
be available from UK mail order. I added a shotgun from a Goliath, and
filed down an old Imperial Guard plastic arm to make the rolled up sleeves.
The bandolier on his shoulder is from the sling that was originally on
the shotgun. |

This is another quite old model- it's one of the three Titan Crew models
that can only be ordered from the UK as far as I know. Because this model
is somewhat small, I used it for all my Tech Gang juves, but it makes a
decent Tech Guard model. |
Mechanicus armies typically have waves and waves of Servitors
at their disposal. Currently there are only two servitor models available
(although they are quite nice). To get more variety, I mixed in several
Pit Slave models from Necromunda to fill out my forces. This pit slave
has a servo arm from a Servitor model. |

Here's a classic servitor model, painted with the dark grey and dark
red colors I use for my Tech Priests. For variety,
I replaced his servo arm with a chainsaw arm from a plastic epic scale
Knight. |
This innocent looking model is my own creation- a Robot
Bomb! It drives up to the enemy and detonates (unless they can shoot it
first). I took an epic scale ork battlewagon, removed the turret, put the
deathroller up there, added some wires, and presto! |

The Adeptus Mechanicus really should have some robots or androids,
so I created a new class of troop called an Automaton. This model is a
converted epic Knight, with a flamer and purity seal added on. . I painted
the upper arms and legs steel, with a black wash to emphasize the technical
details. |
