10Khorne Lord Of Skulls
Prepare For Chaos… And Lots Of Glue!
The Lord of Skulls model is packed with intricate hellish mechanical details.
While its not exactly difficult to assemble, its large size and numerous parts make it incredibly time-consuming.
9Legion Thunderhawk Gunship
A Sky-High Challenge!
Where fun meets craftsmanship.
Plus, its sheer size can lead to stability issues if you’re not careful.

Since the interior is visible, getting the assembly and painting just right is crucial.
7Combat Patrol: Adeptus Mechanicus
Omnissiahs Blessings Come With A Challenge!
Warhammer 40Ks new Flawless Blades could be loyalists if they tried hard enough.
The intricate mechanical details require fine craftsmanship, and dont even get me started on painting!
Metallic colors need perfect shading, and those details have to pop.
So yeah, notexactly a beginners setit’s a serious test of both your painting and building skills.
Designed for a dynamic pose, every part’s position must be chosen with precision.
A wrong piece or assembly choice will mess with the models aesthetic harmony.
The mechanical details demand attention not just during assembly but also in the painting phase.
The complex details and numerous parts make everything a challenge.
Additionally, building the Triarchal Menhirs requires some serious precision.
Like the Flayed Ones and Psychomancer, this model is no walk in the park.
Death Korps of New Antioch.
Its basically a masterpiece in the makingif you’re free to survive the build!
Tiny mechanical details and the textures of their skin add layers of complexity to both assembly and painting.
The dynamic poses require careful alignment, and those sharp needles and fragile pieces?
Well, they don’t make things easierthey’re practically begging to break.
The organic parts, especially the arms and heads, make posing even more of a challenge.
If the body parts arent aligned just right, get ready to redo the whole thing.
A true test of patience, precision, and a steady hand!
Behind its glorious Necron design lie monstrous engines that demand precision, or theyll mock your efforts with misalignment.
Painting it after assembly?
Most recommend painting before gluing, unless you enjoy misery.
Yeah, you might end up trimming and re-gluing them by hand like a mad tech-priest.
It’s beautiful… but it knows it’s your nemesis.
2Ghost Ark
Beautiful, But Cursed
Another infamously cursed model.
The Ghost Ark is definitely one to avoid for first-time builders.
Misalign one, and your sleek space barge suddenly looks like it crashed into a black hole sideways.
The gun mounts attached to the ribs are fragile as a Necron’s patience.
Despite sharing a kit with the Doomsday Ark, magnetizing is rarely recommendedunless you enjoy pain.
Aligning the onboard Necron Warriors is a game of 3D Tetris, but rage-inducing.
And even if you survive all that, chances are itll still wobble like it had too much amasec.
The hatch opening mechanism and the need for precise assembly require extra attention.
Getting the hatches to close properly can also be a nightmare.
Placing the wings and aligning the turbine in the center is one of the most frustrating parts.
This model demands a perfect balancesome parts need to be loose enough to allow adjustments.
If the hatches dont align or close right, expect a massive headache.
You might feel the urge to launch it across the room.
In short, be prepared for a test of patienceand possibly a complete meltdown!
