NemFX Posted April 11, 2009 Share Posted April 11, 2009 Very nice! The galaxy would shudder if I got a titan, because I'd make it a joke.. "This space for rent" "My other car doesn't have legs" "Support our troops or I'll step on you" and so on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Muskie Posted April 14, 2009 Share Posted April 14, 2009 Good job, too often people buy these things and then the paint job is "meh". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tagsta Posted April 15, 2009 Author Share Posted April 15, 2009 Good job, too often people buy these things and then the paint job is "meh". I realized that also it deeply hurts me when such an expensive model is ruined by the lack of painting skills or assembled in a bad way I've seen warhounds with super static leg positions... looked aweful that reaver is amazing!! i can't wait to see the whole thing though. well deadline for a "combat ready" paintjob is saturday... I won't be able to paint today and tomorrow due to friends visiting but i think i will be able to make it in 2 intense painting sessions thursday and friday forgeworld still didnt manage to send the knee armour parts that were missing and the small link chain for the banner :tu: I dont know what's up with their service, usually they are super convenient Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tagsta Posted April 16, 2009 Author Share Posted April 16, 2009 i snapped 2 incredibly bad shots with my webcam because i was so damn proud after finishing the application of the decals i just printed... major problems occured so i had to re-print a whole sheet cause i messed the most important decal up that says "machine god" anyways it's thursday night and the game is saturday morning so if I don't make any progress tomorrow despite work all day and a party at nighttime I will have to take the titan to battle in a very WIP state hopefully i can get it done in time... http://img5.imageshack.us/img5/7527/foto149t.jpg http://img524.imageshack.us/img524/376/foto148.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vandael Posted April 17, 2009 Share Posted April 17, 2009 Amazing would be an understatment :jaw: I couldn't be botherd to muster the patience in buying, assembling and painting one Titan. And then there are people who do, some (like you) do more! Respect! GW and/or Forgeworld should really drop the prices on these babies or otherwise give partial refunds to people who deliver work like this on the web. No marketing or commercial can beat this. Some of the best Titans I've seen. Excellent work on the details as well. Too bad their loyalist though ;) Will of course be following the progress. Cheers, Vandael ps: Even your WIP status is more than regular tt-quality. Take the Reaver to war! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Pugno Posted April 17, 2009 Share Posted April 17, 2009 Amazing work on :P two titans!!! i just looked it up on wikipedia and came to the conclusion that gamma is definitely not the equivalent of c!in modern greek it is kappa which is (K) or © and it ancient greek it seems to be chi http://www.dur.ac.uk/stat.web/greek.htm thank you for the hint! would u recommend to take the ancient greek or modern greek version then? Hi, first I know there is little you can do at this stage BUT... Chi is transliteraly CH but is often prenounced C with a bit of roughness, quite gutterally Kappa rather is a K or 'hard' C and and would basically be procounced Luke-ius (Source: i study greek for GCSE) even so I think as they are both 'hard' or rough sounding that neither reflects the modern pronunciation of lucius which requires a 'soft' C perhaps in this case the sigma may have been the better letter to use :wub: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tagsta Posted April 18, 2009 Author Share Posted April 18, 2009 ok I managed to get him combat ready.. pretty much done except for smaller detailing here are the pics from the game: http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y68/Tagsta/Warhammer40k/IMG_8179.jpg http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y68/Tagsta/Warhammer40k/IMG_8155.jpg http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y68/Tagsta/Warhammer40k/IMG_8153.jpg http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y68/Tagsta/Warhammer40k/IMG_8156.jpg http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y68/Tagsta/Warhammer40k/IMG_8164.jpg the proud owner looking kinda ridicolous http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y68/Tagsta/Warhammer40k/IMG_8171.jpg http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y68/Tagsta/Warhammer40k/IMG_8176.jpg one of the opponents that I crippled in round one thoughts about the game: - rule lawyers suck - I had suuuuuuuch bad luck with the dice... the engines performed pathetic overall ;) - turbo laser is definitely the best choice.. the gatling blaster was just pathetic.. I will defintely convert it into a volcano cannon when I get the chance... - I will definitely convert a Vortex Missile and maybe get a second laserblaster...

LSM aka The Inner Geek thank you! can't wait to see yours finished as well i did a lil more detailing and i can almost smell the titan being finished a few updates: http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y68/Tagsta/Warhammer40k/IMG_8545.jpg groupshot with missing volcano cannon and rhino + marine for scale http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y68/Tagsta/Warhammer40k/IMG_8543.jpg plasticard banner http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y68/Tagsta/Warhammer40k/IMG_8541.jpg a better closeup of the eagle + scrolls http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y68/Tagsta/Warhammer40k/IMG_8540.jpg i touched up the corona on the warhound's heraldry shield to make it match the reaver's better... i also created another one of the leg armour plates with the yellow diagonal stripe they are exchangable and attached with a magnet The Reaver will have one of the following names: Invicorus Astor Tyrannis For the Warhound i have the follwing in my mind: Avernus Ultra Canis Tertius Lupus Nox C&C Welcome Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
