Dreadtober 01

It is that time of year again, Dreadtober. This time around, I thought I would get some Iron Circle Domitar-Ferrum class battle-automata done. I bought these several year ago (just realized how expensive they are now) as the body guards for my forge lord, but I never got around to actually doing them. I thing the reason I stalled on these was because I stalled out on the build of the forge lord. But if I get these done, then perhaps I can finish the Lord as well.

As these are Forge World models they first needed a bath, to make sure the release agent is gone. So I dropped them in a bucket of hot water and washing up liquid over the night. Then I went over each piece with a toothbrush and scrub them clean. To make sure I did not leave any residue of agent or washing up liquid I rinsed them with more hot water using a sieve. Now they are drying over night so that I can get them of the gates and start cleaning things up tomorrow.

While the pieces were laid out to dry I decided to do some quick bases so that I can fit the pose of the Domitars to the base. I will have to go over them and sand some of the ridges down but generally I am quite happy with how they turned out.
