Danny Cyanide Posted March 30, 2009 Share Posted March 30, 2009 Hey guys, Well, I figured I'd take on another large project since nothing exciting is happening right now in my World Eaters Army, just a bunch of troops (I will update that project soon...) I had an Apoc game 2 weekends ago at my local GW which I found out about 4 days before. I decided that I was going to paint up my Warhound for the game, so while he's looking pretty decent right now, there is still a whole lot to do. None of the interior has been touched, and there are still a ton of details to pick out on the exterior. Since this is a WIP thread, here he is: http://i104.photobucket.com/albums/m165/Danny_Cyanide/minis/Warhound2.jpg http://i104.photobucket.com/albums/m165/Danny_Cyanide/minis/Warhound3.jpg http://i104.photobucket.com/albums/m165/Danny_Cyanide/minis/Warhound4.jpg I was going for a Hot-Rod ish look with the flames. I'm pretty happy with how they turned out. So, during the game, I fell in love with how the Warhound worked out that I decided he needed a big brother... Enter Warlord: http://i104.photobucket.com/albums/m165/Danny_Cyanide/minis/Warlord2.jpg http://i104.photobucket.com/albums/m165/Danny_Cyanide/minis/Warlord1.jpg I started working on him yesterday, and am pretty happy with the amount I was able to get done this weekend. He has World Eater standing on him for scale reference. Should be about 30 - 34 inches tall when done (likely closer to the 30 inch side). Let me know what you guys think. I'll update this as progress is made. Steff Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/164559-chaos-titans/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sons of Horus Posted March 30, 2009 Share Posted March 30, 2009 both are very lovely ^_^ great job on the painting and scratch building :P the warlord should be about 36 inches to make it a bit more accurate and besides who doesn't love super-massive models ;) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/164559-chaos-titans/#findComment-1934998 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danny Cyanide Posted March 30, 2009 Author Share Posted March 30, 2009 Thank for the Kudos! My inspiration is the Warlord just put up on BOLS, which is 28 inches... BOLS Warlord Titan Looks big enough to me... Anything in the 30ish inch range is big enough! Plus, there is no way I'm starting over to scale it up another 3-6 inches... I just5 hope that mine looks half as good as that one when finished!

Terminatorinhell Posted March 30, 2009 Share Posted March 30, 2009 did you get the warlord off of a template? Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/164559-chaos-titans/#findComment-1935096 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danny Cyanide Posted March 30, 2009 Author Share Posted March 30, 2009 No template for the warlord. I'm working off of a few pictures that I have found online. I looked for a template for a long time and was never able to find one. Finally, I decided to just go for it, found some nice pictures and gave it a go....

DuskRaider Posted March 30, 2009 Share Posted March 30, 2009 Lovely Warhound! Is it an actual Legio Titanicus or something you made up? Man... I need to get one ASAP.

Danny Cyanide Posted March 31, 2009 Author Share Posted March 31, 2009 I just kinda did my own thing for the Titan. I had a really hard time finding actual schemes for the traitor Legios, so I decided to make up my own.

Sons of Horus Posted March 31, 2009 Share Posted March 31, 2009 ah yes, i've seen that BOLS titan before and it really is the best warlord i have ever seen. with enough effort you should be able to make an even better one :P goodluck :tu: Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/164559-chaos-titans/#findComment-1936285 Share on other sites More sharing options...
blackblade68 Posted March 31, 2009 Share Posted March 31, 2009 Are you going to try to do the exact same Warlord model? I'm not particularily fond of the face, Let us see some more customization on the rest. Great paint job on the Warhound. Nice Flames. I like the pose as well. Looks like he's getting ready to fire on some troops in close range.

Danny Cyanide Posted March 31, 2009 Author Share Posted March 31, 2009 I will be Chaosing the Warlord up, so I'm thinking I may base the head off of a skull... Maybe some horns. We'll see when we get that far. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/164559-chaos-titans/#findComment-1936367 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sons of Horus Posted March 31, 2009 Share Posted March 31, 2009 actually i've seen warlords with skull heads and they don't look to great. try a daemon head it would be a lot better and less common ^_^ Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/164559-chaos-titans/#findComment-1936527 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danny Cyanide Posted April 1, 2009 Author Share Posted April 1, 2009 Got some more work done today. Most of the leg structure is now built. He doesn't have any feet yet, but all things in good time! Currently it's standing 31 inches tall. We'll probably break 33 once the feet are in place. Here's a couple shots, one give a pretty decent scale comparison between the Warlord, FW Warhound, An"ggrath, and a regular World Eater. Comparing him and the warhound to the scale shot in Apoc, I think it's looking about the right size! Enjoy http://i104.photobucket.com/albums/m165/Danny_Cyanide/minis/Warlord3.jpg http://i104.photobucket.com/albums/m165/Danny_Cyanide/minis/Warlord4.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/164559-chaos-titans/#findComment-1937811 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sons of Horus Posted April 1, 2009 Share Posted April 1, 2009 wow you're pretty fast compared to a lot of other people great work so far ;) hopefully you'll be able to finish this one soon :tu: looking great and keep it up :P Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/164559-chaos-titans/#findComment-1937853 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danny Cyanide Posted April 1, 2009 Author Share Posted April 1, 2009 This is the easy part! The slow tedious part is all the detailing after the structure is completed! I expect that part to take quite a long time! Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/164559-chaos-titans/#findComment-1937855 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danny Cyanide Posted April 1, 2009 Author Share Posted April 1, 2009 If anyone has any suggestions for the look and construction of the head, shot them my way. I'm a little stuck on where to go with the head. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/164559-chaos-titans/#findComment-1938494 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terminatorinhell Posted April 1, 2009 Share Posted April 1, 2009 holy crap that thing is HUGE! I want one.... Oh, for the head what about thos round plumbing caps? It has a rounded shape you can kind of make a head from. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/164559-chaos-titans/#findComment-1938550 Share on other sites More sharing options...
DuskRaider Posted April 2, 2009 Share Posted April 2, 2009 You're going for a Banelord, right? If so, I'd suggest a skull for a head (I'm sure you could find one at a costume & prop store or online). Make it more Khornate and give it giant bunny ears, or do a giant Khorne symbol as the armour on the front carapace. You know what I mean? Have the top part of the symbol span the front shoulder plates, the bottom would be where the carapace ends. I hope this makes sense, since I'm having trouble explaining it. EDIT: After a completely amatuer paint edit, I can show you what I mean! Yeah... it was bothering me I couldn't explain it, lol. http://i256.photobucket.com/albums/hh166/DuskRaider/BanelordIdea.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/164559-chaos-titans/#findComment-1938840 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danny Cyanide Posted April 2, 2009 Author Share Posted April 2, 2009 I think I'm going to make a removable tail so I can field it as a Banelord or classic Chaos Warlord. I think I will give the skull route a try, and if I winds up looking bad, I'll try something else. I do like your Idea of making the paneling in the shape of a Khorne symbol! Not a bad idea at all!

DuskRaider Posted April 2, 2009 Share Posted April 2, 2009 BTW, are you making a template for this? I'd love to give it a whirl. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/164559-chaos-titans/#findComment-1939036 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sons of Horus Posted April 2, 2009 Share Posted April 2, 2009 and put a lot of organic stuff around the armour kinda like an obliterator :lol: very chaosy and still 100% titan. maybe put a thirster on each shoulder and chain them unto the titan and GS their legs to make it look like they're part of the machine :P Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/164559-chaos-titans/#findComment-1939038 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danny Cyanide Posted April 2, 2009 Author Share Posted April 2, 2009 Chances of template are slim, as I haven't been keeping track of measurements or anything. This is the skull I'm looking at right now. I like that it has a sight cone shape to it, giving a little bloodletter vibe. http://www.frightcatalog.com/i/600x600/1015029.jpg I think I'd try and add a bionic eye, and possibly fangs to the teeth. I don't think I'd try to add to much organic material, as that doesn't strike me as to Khorney!
