My latest model for my Imperial Fists Horus Heresy force is the Typhon Heavy Siege Tank.

The Typhon Heavy Siege Tank was released as a plastic kit for The Horus Heresy. I’ve always liked the Forge World resin model and so was pleased to get one of the new plastic kits for my Imperial Fists force.

Having started constructing the model, I finished putting it together. The next stage was a white undercoat. I then gave the model a partial base coat of Army Painter Desert Yellow. I then gave the model a base coat of Army Painter Daemonic Yellow. I painted the bolter and the exhausts using Citadel Leadbelcher. It was then onto shading the model and then shading it some more. I also painted the tracks. The Typhon was then drybrushed.

I glued in the Dreadhammer Siege Cannon and then added the frontal armour.

For the next stage I used some Citadel Layer Yriel Yellow. I took a large brush and gave the model, what I would call, a heavy drybrush. I put paint on the brush, and then used some kitchen towel to remove most of the paint, and then using a stippling process added paint to the model. I then used the same process with Citadel Layer Flash Gitz Yellow.

I then gave the model a light drybrush of Citadel Layer Dorn Yellow.

I had used Citadel Agrax Earthshade Shade on the tracks, forgetting that I should have done a heavy drybrush of Gorthor Brown first.

So I did the heavy drybrush of Gorthor Brown .

I then washed the tracks (again) with Citadel Agrax Earthshade Shade.

I nearly forgot to paint the extra track pieces that come with the Typhon kit (as it is longer than the standard Land Raider). Once I remembered I did them the same way as the rest of the tracks.

After painting and shading them, I drybrushed them lightly, first with Leadbelcher. I then did a very light drybrush with Terminatus Stone.

I did some more shading using Citadel Reikland Fleshshade Shade and Citadel Seraphim Sepia Shade and Citadel Nuln Oil Shade on the exhausts.

I used Citadel Seraphim Sepia Shade on the main weapon.

Once that shade was dry, I used Citadel Nuln Oil Shade on the engine vents and the exhausts.

I then used Citadel Nuln Oil Shade on the wheels as well.

I also used Citadel Agrax Earthshade Shade on the tracks, forgetting that I should have done a heavy drybrush of Gorthor Brown first.

I will need to do that, and then use Citadel Agrax Earthshade Shade on the tracks.

It was then onto shading the model. I used some Citadel Reikland Fleshshade Shade, aiming to achieve the same result I got with my first Deimos Pattern Rhino.

This time though, compared to some of my other models I went with an initial lighter shade, with the intention to add more later.

I gave the main weapon a wash of Agrax Earthshade Shade.

I also shaded the gun shield with Citadel Reikland Fleshshade Shade.

The next step will be some more shading.

Having constructed the sponson weapons I gave them an undercoat of white spray paint.

I was intending to give the sponson weapons a base coat of Citadel Leadbelcher but my spray had run out when I had base coated the main weapon.

However I did give the shields of the weapons a spray of Army Painter Daemonic Yellow.

I will then use a pot of Citadel Leadbelcher to paint the weapons.

Unlike some of my other models there is no iconography on the Typhon, so this stage was quicker than some of my Grey Knights models.

I also gave the main weapon shield the same basecoat of Army Painter Daemonic Yellow.

This is the Typhon with the dreadnought siege weapon.

Having started constructing the model, I finished putting it together. The next stage was a white undercoat.

I had planned to base coat the underneath of the model with with Citadel Zandri Dust in preparation for painting the the whole model yellow. However when visiting my FLGS, they had sold out of Zandri Dust spray. So I bought some Army Painter Desert Yellow Spray, along with can of Army Painter Daemonic Yellow.

I sprayed the model first with Desert Yellow spray.

This is designed to add shadow.

As well as the underneath of the model, I also sprayed the wheels and suspension.

I base coated the dreadnought siege weapon with Citadel Leadbelcher.

For the tracks, still on the sprue, I gave them a spray of Citadel Mechanicus Standard Grey.

I realised I had forgotten to construct the sponson weapons, so I quickly put them together. There is quite a choice, I decided I would go with the lascannons.
