Araziel Posted March 29, 2012 Share Posted March 29, 2012 That's fantastic. I've been experimenting and making my own templates by guestimating everything. Seeing this puts my efforts to shame, well done. Something tells me I'm going to be following those templates myself rather than continue with my design. Can't wait for you're next update.

dizzy-xc Posted March 29, 2012 Share Posted March 29, 2012 If it was plasti-carded up at this stage and shown to have bolted interlocking plates of armor around the superstructure it'd look more complete. Its a little rough looking at the moment. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/249352-custom-warhound-titan/#findComment-3027867 Share on other sites More sharing options...
merc3065 Posted March 30, 2012 Share Posted March 30, 2012 Using foam core, how did you accommodate for the fold lines? Did you have to cut the foam core out to fit or did you have to reduce the overall size of the squares by the thickness of the foam core used to maintain the measurements when you assembled the pieces? Also noticed in the "rounded" section of the main body part, do you need to fill in the gaps or is it supposed to be like armour plates attached?

Roesor Posted March 30, 2012 Share Posted March 30, 2012 Hrmmm...I'd like to see a close combat Warhound myself. Perhaps I shall when all my other projects/armies are done >_> I'd be carving sigils of purity into it's very framework! Blessing it with armament and pieces from my first Templar models! It would be glorious! o.O But I wouldn't get my offcial certificate of Titanness. Damn Imperial Bureucracy.

T3mpl@r Crusade Posted March 30, 2012 Share Posted March 30, 2012 wow that i looking fantastic! Ill have to start on my own after I get school out of the way an move. Im very excited to see the end of this. Perhaps when your done, could you provide a lit of materials for the little details and the structure? doesnt have to be in depth at all, but I would greatly appreciate it :D Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/249352-custom-warhound-titan/#findComment-3028580 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eberious Posted March 31, 2012 Share Posted March 31, 2012 Looking good. Was thinking of doing the same but lots to do at the moment, maybe in the future. One question at the moment, in the design are there plans for the 'toe' ends or are they just block ends in your pics. ? will you be adding the curved toe ends?

Brother Sivak Posted April 2, 2012 Author Share Posted April 2, 2012 merc3065...Since this was my first time building a titan i decided to go with foam board.its easy for me to mold and cut but did notice it was off from design. -Toes did come out more box end then slightly pointed.i fixed that problem but havent placed them on yet. -Alot of molding because foam board is 1/8 thicker so yes their was extra pieces not needed. -gaps was filled with hot glue then slowly cut of to even out.i will even as much as i can then prime it grey first to ook for any extra gaps. -Head is being made out of plastic card because foam will be alot harder after i build this one i will build one out of plastic card or move to building a warlord out of foam board.warlord will have working torso and weapon movement from my spare rc car servos.if anyone has any ideas on the weapons to help make them.i think foam ones will look like poop ir might need to visit local hobby shop to get supplies.

philsminions Posted April 2, 2012 Share Posted April 2, 2012 I do concur... :cuss amazing! I'd like to see the cost/build comparisons between scratch built and FW. All I know is, I'd LOVE to have me one of those stomping around the board! I could care less if it's scratch built or not...can't wait to see it completed. It's coming along quite nicely.

Roesor Posted April 2, 2012 Share Posted April 2, 2012 Have to ask though, what's it's background fluff for being deployed with a Crusade? Especially with Templarness built in.

ScottishSmurf96 Posted April 2, 2012 Share Posted April 2, 2012 Have to ask though, what's it's background fluff for being deployed with a Crusade? Especially with Templarness built in. It is likely to be similar to the lightning squadron that gained the honor of displaying the cross, though after helsreach the twmplars would not exactly be in the admechs goodbooks.
