The 40k Hobbiest Posted April 14, 2011 Author Share Posted April 14, 2011 Thanks for the coments, guys! I've already started on the next section, the one that goes on forward of what I've finished (the part that the head connects to). I'll be posting pictures as soon as that baby's done, but it could be a while. Work is getting stupid again. Thanks for the suggestions, too. I've never used weathering poweder before and I'm not really willing to learn to use something new like that on something that I've spent so much money on. I do plan on using the gloss varnish after everything is done and sealed. I'm planning on putting it on things like lenses and lights and buttons and stuff, but I could put it on the piston arms too. That sounds like a good idea. Thanks again! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shortsonfire79 Posted April 14, 2011 Share Posted April 14, 2011 That sir, is mighty nice. Do you have any plans for freehand work anywhere? Not sure if it would really add to the model though, your deep red/brown is already superb. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
curnow Posted April 14, 2011 Share Posted April 14, 2011 I can understand not wanting to try new stuff on this model as its big and expensive :D a cheap way to do pigments/ powders is to get a few chalk pastels and smash them up for 50p each and they can be washed off with water if ur not happy . Mite be something tho think about on future builds as I think it would realy add to your allready outstanding work . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 40k Hobbiest Posted May 18, 2011 Author Share Posted May 18, 2011 awesome mate, simply awesome! ^_^ can't wait to see it finished! We're getting there. The head has been primed and I just got the magnets to do the weapons. I fear this project may still be months away from completion, however.

vharing Posted May 30, 2011 Share Posted May 30, 2011 WOW, the is amazing. I think your paint job really did that titan justice. It was nice to see some paint on up in something other than blue or red. Good Job! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother-Chaplain Kage Posted May 30, 2011 Share Posted May 30, 2011 Oh no, are those brushstrokes in the red? Awesome job overall. Wish I could afford a titan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tyrannicide Posted May 30, 2011 Share Posted May 30, 2011 You've decided on a very interesting color scheme, not something you see on most Titans around here. I like it. :tu: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The 40k Hobbiest Posted May 30, 2011 Author Share Posted May 30, 2011 Oh no, are those brushstrokes in the red?Yes. Those are brush strokes. The face was just Mechrite Red and I've always had problems with that color. I'll water it down more next time. I agree that the red looks a bit out of place right now, but I think that when it's all done, it'll look better. I'll post up a full body shot here in the next day or so. Maybe it'll make more sense then. Next up, weapons! I own all 4, but I'm going to do the double-barrelled turbo laser first, followed by the plasma blastgun. I should have one of them done within the next week or so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The face was just Mechrite Red and I've always had problems with that color. I'll water it down more next time. On anything bigger than a marine, I have a hard time keeping brushstrokes out of red, too. That's why I bought an airbrush. >_< Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 40k Hobbiest Posted May 31, 2011 Author Share Posted May 31, 2011 Thanks for all the kind comments. If you have any other ideas for how I should do the weapons or something like that, feel free to let me know. You can comment on my blog as well. I'm trying to get some more traffic through that thing. I have other models up there for you to see too! For the double-barrelled turbo laser, I'm thinking of doing some sort of lightning effect on the barrel, almost as if the barrels themselves are glass cylinders with lightning in them or something. What do you guys think? And if so, what color should I do them? Should I have any red elements in the weapons or just do it in the brown and brass like everything else? Also, what color should I paint the front cowling on the flamer? I'm thinking a brown or a red. Not sure yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
