Gelida: the Frozen Expanse is a 40K/Inq28 group project started by Cody Taylor aka Magos Buer. Gelida is a frozen planet, inhabitable only around its equator. Humans have resorted to utilizing mechs and exosuits to traverse the world for resources. I'm contributing with this mech and pilot:
The mech is an old metal Killa Kan with some changes to tone down the 'orkyness' and make him suitable to represent an Imperial walker. The pilot is slightly converted Steel Legion guardsman. The snow was done using DAS, PVA, plaster and paint.
Inspiration for my models comes mostly
from Jakub Rozalski's artwork - most known for illustrating the popular
board game Scythe. I don't normally dig the feel of digital art, but
this is an exception. The atmosphere the artist creates is highly
immersive.
