Sorscha Resin Kit

One more nightmare has just been saved from pile of shame! Woo-hoo! 🤩

This time it's not just a model but true blast the past: limited edition, large scale Kommander Sorscha from steam-punk commie line. Khador that is. 
That brings me back...

Back days we were really deep into Warmachine: when the game was released it immediately obliterated any other games we were running that moment. It was fast, dynamic and never boring. Plus models were so friggin' cool! Also somehow back days we had much more time to waste on gaming...
I liked it so much I was sending my stuff to No Quarter magazine (some of it was even printed) and really had lots of fun participating in Privateer Press painting contests. Which brings us to the Sorscha. If I remember correctly contest prizes were vouchers / Privateer Press bucks to be spent in online store, which were used to get limited resin models: Slayer and Forward Kommander Sorscha.

Slayer was painted long time ago (the model is brilliant) but I was really afraid of starting the other one: it's made of delicate resin so washing it would probably not an option plus back days painting such a colorful models really was not my thing. But having new display case I decided to give it a go.

Painting was pain in the ass mostly because model had to be painted unassembled (I really don't like it). Another thing was one of my airbrush paints was totally fuc#ed: for this model I ordered some fresh colors but one of them was so grainy it actually made texture on flat surface. No sh!t! You can actually still see it on loincloth (or whatever that red rag in the front is) and that's the reason I decided to apply some artifical snow - to distract the attention.

Privateer Press also released Warwitch Deneghra and Khador Juggernaut in large scale - I really regret I didn't manage to get them. Such pieces look really great placed behind the glass. Judge for yourself:





And here's Sorscha accompanied by her battlefield buddy - Slayer:


And one more scale shot: scrap thrall this time. Don't think that walking bomb was looking more cute ever before ☺️



Hope to find some more olddschool Privateer Press stuff to paint on the bottom of bucket of shame. Who knows, maybe one day Toruk's servants shall leave display case for battle once again...
