Ramora Posted January 25, 2008 Share Posted January 25, 2008 Here are some WIP pics of the titan.. http://i88.photobucket.com/albums/k199/fattyguyriley/DSC00053.jpg http://i88.photobucket.com/albums/k199/fattyguyriley/DSC00055.jpg http://i88.photobucket.com/albums/k199/fattyguyriley/DSC00054.jpg http://i88.photobucket.com/albums/k199/fattyguyriley/DSC00056.jpg http://i88.photobucket.com/albums/k199/fattyguyriley/DSC00057.jpg That I'm thinking of using as the reactor.. well I got about 3-4 hours into the cutting/building part of this guy and its safe to say he's gunna be a beast.. I'll post some pics of him next to my warhounds tonight so you can get a sense of how huge it is.. and for those of you that think this is too big for a warlord the seattle GW battle bunker is making one right now that gunna be like 5-6 feet tall cheers, Ramo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Son of the Emperor Posted January 25, 2008 Share Posted January 25, 2008 I thought an Emperor-class was 5-6 feet tall when scaled... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ramora Posted January 25, 2008 Author Share Posted January 25, 2008 same here.. My warlord should come in around 3 feet tall +/- cheers, Ramo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ramora Posted January 26, 2008 Author Share Posted January 26, 2008 http://i88.photobucket.com/albums/k199/fattyguyriley/DSC00058.jpg just to compare with my warhound which is about 12-1/2" inches tall Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ramora Posted January 30, 2008 Author Share Posted January 30, 2008 Well here's my first real update. Got the bolts for whats going to hold the arms and started attaching some of the pieces I've already cut out. After getting them on there I realised I'm going to need to rethink some of my design. I need to move some of the under structure around but that will have to wait till tomorrow. Well until next time, here are the pics. http://i88.photobucket.com/albums/k199/fattyguyriley/DSC00061.jpg http://i88.photobucket.com/albums/k199/fattyguyriley/DSC00063.jpg http://i88.photobucket.com/albums/k199/fattyguyriley/DSC00066.jpg http://i88.photobucket.com/albums/k199/fattyguyriley/DSC00068.jpg Cheers, Ramo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother Gothard Posted January 30, 2008 Share Posted January 30, 2008 Are you using MDF for that beast? I looks like 1/2" too. Jeez, you're nuts, that thing is going to be HEAVY! That Warhound is ace though! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ramora Posted January 30, 2008 Author Share Posted January 30, 2008 Ha yeah I am using mdf. The frame is 1/2" but the "skin" is only 1/4". So far the weight isn't too bad, but its only going to get heavier ;) . I just hope it never falls on anyone's minis.. or anyone for that matter. Thanks about the warhound! I really need to finish that one. I got a tourny coming up so maybe that will give me some motivation. Cheer, Ramo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Pugno Posted January 30, 2008 Share Posted January 30, 2008 well i never considered a jenga box to be a particularly good titan but we all like different things only kidding good work bet i have confused you havent i :) :lol: ^_^ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ramora Posted January 30, 2008 Author Share Posted January 30, 2008 Thanks! I was confused for a second.. I couldn't figure out what jenga was :P Cheers, Ramo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ramora Posted February 21, 2008 Author Share Posted February 21, 2008 I got some work done on the frame for the top and I tore open this Plasma ball light for the reactor. Even though it doesn't look like much this really is a big push forward. tomorrow I'm hoping to figure out how to secure the plasma ball light and make both the power supply and the switch accessible. Well here are some blurry pics :( I really need a real camera http://i88.photobucket.com/albums/k199/fattyguyriley/DSC00072.jpg http://i88.photobucket.com/albums/k199/fattyguyriley/DSC00073.jpg http://i88.photobucket.com/albums/k199/fattyguyriley/DSC00074.jpg heres a shot for size. Thats my brother, he's 6' tall.. I dont know how wide he is but you get the idea :) Cheers, Ramo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wiplash Posted February 21, 2008 Share Posted February 21, 2008 what i never understand is how your gonna make the head??? i mean that must take up half of the planning and making time, especially on the warhound i've seen many WIP titans, finished and not but barely ever do they have a decent head looks really good so far though what weapons are you going to give it??

Ramora Posted February 22, 2008 Author Share Posted February 22, 2008 Thanks for all the compliments!! Here's what I got done today.. I wasn't able to get any of it attached cause I had to re-cut everything I did but what can you do.. I'm hoping to get more done tomorrow but i have to go back to work so we'll what happens with that. http://i88.photobucket.com/albums/k199/fattyguyriley/DSC00079.jpg http://i88.photobucket.com/albums/k199/fattyguyriley/DSC00078.jpg http://i88.photobucket.com/albums/k199/fattyguyriley/DSC00077.jpg http://i88.photobucket.com/albums/k199/fattyguyriley/DSC00080.jpg As far as how I'm gunna equip it I don't know but probably a gatling blaster and a volcano cannon for the arms.. The gatling blaster just looks too cool not to have.. Cheers, Ramo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ultra tacticus Posted February 26, 2008 Share Posted February 26, 2008 thats way to big to be a warlord scale wise. see, the warhound is 10.5 lets make it 11 inches well the reaver is only 14in tall and if you look in the apocolyspe book the warlord is standing next to the warhound and if you say the warhound is 11 in tall then the warlord is only about 25 to 30 in tall sry scale my thing ever since my friend argued that a atlas was 200 feet tall i just laughed (oh thats battletech for the young ones) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ramora Posted February 27, 2008 Author Share Posted February 27, 2008 @ ultra tacticus: the FW warhound model is 10 1/2" mine is 12-1/2". Scale doesnt seem to be super important in 40k anyway, take a space marine for example it's the same size as a guard.. So I'm thinking +/- 6 inches in a titan is no biggy well imo anyway.. thanks for the comment! well he's what I got done today.. It's almost time to start working on the arms and legs.. YAY!! http://i88.photobucket.com/albums/k199/fattyguyriley/DSC00085.jpg http://i88.photobucket.com/albums/k199/fattyguyriley/DSC00084.jpg http://i88.photobucket.com/albums/k199/fattyguyriley/DSC00083.jpg http://i88.photobucket.com/albums/k199/fattyguyriley/DSC00086.jpg http://i88.photobucket.com/albums/k199/fattyguyriley/DSC00090.jpg http://i88.photobucket.com/albums/k199/fattyguyriley/DSC00087.jpg http://i88.photobucket.com/albums/k199/fattyguyriley/DSC00088.jpg wish me luck on figuring out how the legs are gunna work :roll: Cheers, Riley Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IamJacksUserName Posted February 27, 2008 Share Posted February 27, 2008 THAT IS AMAZING! Ignore everyone's complaints about scale, because that thing is so well done, a few inches too big or too small doesn't make a difference. I can't wait to see it standing on its own. I am also very much looking forward to seeing as to how you are going to install that reactor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shinjikun1 Posted February 27, 2008 Share Posted February 27, 2008 That plasma ball is sick. Are you gonna put it inside the main carapace? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ramora Posted February 27, 2008 Author Share Posted February 27, 2008 @ IamJacksUserName: Thank you! and thanks for back up on the scaling :lol: @ shinjikun1: Thanks I thought so too :P and to answer your question - yup.. kinda.. That whole thing is gunna be the connection between the upper body and the legs/waist thats actually what I wanted to work on today but since my car crapped itself I don't have a ride to the hardware store till my brother gets off work :cry: Cheers, Ramo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Master Toddius Posted February 27, 2008 Share Posted February 27, 2008 If you can get that reactor static light to function and be visable inside the warlord it'll be an insane addition. Thats one of the coolest details i've seen on a titan yet. Nice clean build as well. Seems like americans like to build the titans to the point of almost being bullet proof with the construction method and material. You could probably stand on that thing right now and not do any damage. :cry: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Midas Posted February 28, 2008 Share Posted February 28, 2008 That is too cool! Its gonna be huge. Just dont set it on someones army. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
