MattCrawford Posted March 28, 2011 Share Posted March 28, 2011 So I want to incorporate the Shrine of the Aquila set into the legs of my Chaos Imperator Titan, to represent the entry points in the legs and make the whole thing more ornate. My problem is that the whole thing seems a bit too Loyalist for a Chaos titan, so I'd like some thoughts on what I can do to make it look more Chaos-y. The best idea I've come up with is to hang some Guardsmen off meat-hooks from the eagle-heads, but that seems a bit obvious. Thoughts?

Olis Posted March 28, 2011 Share Posted March 28, 2011 How about chaos symbols, applied so they look like they've been stenciled on a la Vraks-renegade style?

Vincent Black Shadow Posted March 28, 2011 Share Posted March 28, 2011 Vulgar graffiti (in faux Latin) insulting the emperor and all his loyalist lapdogs.

THE GHOMA Posted March 28, 2011 Share Posted March 28, 2011 Graffiti, Crucifying imperial corpses against it, spikes, drawing chaos symbols. You can also do god-specific decorations (pustules for nurgle, pools of blood for Khorne, mouths for Tzeench, tentacles for slaanesh) Apart from these i don't really see much alternative options since this is chaos, not orks Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/225881-chaosifying-the-shrine-of-the-aquila/#findComment-2704508 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Olis Posted March 28, 2011 Share Posted March 28, 2011 Is the Titan dedicated to a particular god or is it undivided? Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/225881-chaosifying-the-shrine-of-the-aquila/#findComment-2704517 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Olis Posted March 29, 2011 Share Posted March 29, 2011 Well, blood and corpses/heads is par for the course, so I'd go with that for now unless you get a flash of inspiration. Btw did you ask the Khorne board this question? They could help better, I think... :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/225881-chaosifying-the-shrine-of-the-aquila/#findComment-2705273 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hellios Posted March 29, 2011 Share Posted March 29, 2011 Don't chaos titans tend to mutate and change to suit the form of their patron god (if they have one?), while the shrine of aquilla is cool for a titans leg (I'm using the idea for my titans leg bu not the kit) wouldn't something like a gaping maw or some kind of beast be more suitable than the eagle for a chaos titan? Maybe a giant fleshhound... Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/225881-chaosifying-the-shrine-of-the-aquila/#findComment-2705333 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe a giant fleshhound... That's kind of what I was trying to get at: replacements for the eagle heads on the Shrine. I'm thinking I might go with just keeping the eagle head off and crucifying someone important, like a GK grandmaster or Chapter Master (and then surround him with lots of other corpses) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/225881-chaosifying-the-shrine-of-the-aquila/#findComment-2705489 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hellios Posted March 29, 2011 Share Posted March 29, 2011 I don't suppose you could post up a sketch or photo of the shape of the leg... no detail is really required... for example my leg design is cone shaped (but without the point on the top) but at the front the cone shape is broken with the eagle wings making an inset and then the eagles body (with the door) is in that inset (I don't know if I'm explain very well) and then from the door down to the bottom of the front toe steps lead. However You might want to do a smooth cone or a block or some other shape for the titans lower leg and that shape will change what look suits it best. However imagine the leg was following my design (although it would work with some others)... rather than the eagle what about a giant skull (Khorne being the lord of skulls and all) with the mouth being the door and rather than having wings what about something that emulates the Flesh hound collars coming out of each side?

NemFX Posted March 30, 2011 Share Posted March 30, 2011 Have a berzerker painting part of the leg with a dead guy :( Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/225881-chaosifying-the-shrine-of-the-aquila/#findComment-2706030 Share on other sites More sharing options...
