Typhon Heavy Siege Tank Sponsons

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 added the frontal armour.

I had undercoated the sponson weapons and then painted the armour with Army Painter Desert Yellow. I then painted the lascannons with Citadel Leadbelcher. The sensor covering was then painted with Citadel Layer Flash Gitz Yellow.

These were then attached to the Typhon.

It was then onto shading the sponsons. I used some Citadel Reikland Fleshshade Shade on them.

The next stage will be affixing the tracks.
