The Calliope of Chaos: The Mortis Engine

Here are the final shot of my newly completed Mortis Engine, the Calliope of Chaos

The Calliope of Chaos

This was a fun miniature to paint and assemble.  I decided to build the miniature into sub-assemblies, so that way it was easier to paint.  I assembled it into these sub sections:

• Left Spirit Host
• Right Spirit Host
• 3 Banshees
• The Carriage
• The Gate
• The Relic 
• Corpse Master

I then painted all of the parts their various colors and then assembled together.  

West Side!!!

East Side!!!

I was going for a smokey, whisky, shadow-like color scheme for this miniature, as if the darkness was manifesting this morbidly haunting thing to bring death and ruin.  I really like this effect and I am satisfied with the overall result.

I was most impressed with the way the Corpse Master looks on the miniature, I painted it a bright Teal before oil washing it, and it looks fittingly haunting.  

Over all, I love this model.  It was fun to assemble, even more fun to paint, and in the end; makes an awesome center piece for my army.
