shinjikun1 Posted February 27, 2008 Share Posted February 27, 2008 With the release of Apocalypse, I am happy to see more and more people building Warlord Titans for 40K. Heres a link to my hobby blog if you would like to see my WIP. There seems to be a lot of discussion about scale and size for a Warlord scale Titan in 40K. I determined my scale by looking at the Epic range. I measured out and drew a sketch of a 40k Warlord on a big piece of paper and it looked like a good size. I also determined by studying various photos of the old Infinity Gate diorama (siege of the Emperors palace display @ Warhammer World Museum), that my titan would be almost the same size as the ones in the display. So using the 1:12 scale, i took measurement of the current Epic Warlord model and made templates. It stands about 32 inches tall. IMHO i think that really there is no definitive scale for this model at this time. You'll find a few hight reference in the Fluff, but these aren't always consistent. Comparing GW Epic sale to GW 40k scale isn't consistent. As a result we are seeing many variations in the size of the models being produced. I think thats fine because whats important it that you enjoy the process of building it and your end result will be pretty impressive on the tabletop regardless. You can leave comment on the blog page. Id love to hear what you guys think and feel free to ask questions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alpha PTP Posted May 26, 2008 Share Posted May 26, 2008 Holy crap. I swear I have seen something like this before. I remember seeing the main body WIP? Looks fantastic. I don't get why anyone didn't comment on this before... Alpha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BobPanda Posted May 26, 2008 Share Posted May 26, 2008 i like it. :P nice traditional warhound design. huge and strong. :D - with some very good ideas and the propotioning looks really good and fitting. the shoulder-mounted vmb is great. so is the head. - and as you've said: because there's no standard size defined for that model i think everything between 60cm and 100cm could be used as warlord. => so please keep us updated. :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shizzleton Posted May 26, 2008 Share Posted May 26, 2008 If I built a Titan, I would make it look like the bad-guy giant Iron Man from...Iron Man. That guy looks like he would make an awesome Titan. Or Dread. Or just a scary robot. Oh, there I go...Back on topic...Your Titan looks awesome. I'm always impressed by these scratch-built Titans everyone makes. I could never muster up the patience to do one of these. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Master Toddius Posted May 29, 2008 Share Posted May 29, 2008 Good grief that looks good. Highly detailed and proportioned very nicely. I always thought warlords with hth weapons were WAY over kill up close when you think about it but it fits the Chaos look. The head and weaponry really made an impression on me. Very talented work. :unsure: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
