Armiger-class Knights, smaller and agile war machines of incredible power, provide mobile support and outrider capabilities to larger Knights, ensuring they are not surrounded in battle. Piloted by young squires or lowborn pilots, these nimble engines receive commands through the Helm Mechanicum from their Noble lords. The Armiger Warglaives, featured in this multipart plastic kit, excel at hunting down enemy armor with their deadly close combat weapon and thermal spear capable of melting through the toughest bunkers. 

Additionally, the kit allows for the assembly of Armiger Helverins, a close-ranged Lords of War choice that provides valuable melee support to Imperial Knights armies or can be incorporated as a Freeblade squadron for other Imperium forces. Each Armiger Warglaive offers customization options with articulated poses, armor plating, six unique faceplates, and the choice of a carapace-mounted heavy stubber or meltagun. With their large carapaces, these models offer an engaging painting project.

  2. Step 2: Base coat
    Start by applying a base coat of Leadbelcher to the armor plates, Rhinox Hide to the weapon grip, and Mephiston Red to any decorative elements.
  3. Step 3: Layering
    Use Ironbreaker to highlight the edges of the armor plates, Gorthor Brown to highlight the weapon grip, and Evil Sunz Scarlet to highlight the decorative elements.
  4. Step 4: Details
    Paint the lenses on the helmet with Baharroth Blue, and the insignias with Pallid Wych Flesh.
  5. Step 5: Wash
    Apply a wash of Nuln Oil to the entire model, focusing on the recessed areas.
  6. Step 6: Highlights
    Add final highlights using Stormhost Silver on the edges of the armor plates, XV-88 on the edges of the weapon grip, and White Scar on the lenses and insignias.
  7. Step 7: Basing
    Paint the base with Mechanicus Standard Grey, drybrush it with Administratum Grey, and add patches of Astrogranite texture paint for a rocky effect. You can also glue on some grass tufts for additional detail.
  8. Step 8: Varnish
    Apply a layer of Ardcoat to the model to protect the paintwork and add a glossy finish.
