malika666 Posted May 22, 2020 Share Posted May 22, 2020 I browse #adeptustitanicus on IG and saw this: https://www.instagram.com/p/B_f0SakH1E8/ I'm looking forward to seeing his Reaver finished. I am very intrigued by the one... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xanthier Posted May 22, 2020 Share Posted May 22, 2020 Today I got round to converting up a Warbringer head and painted the lower half of my third Warbringer. Not too much left before I likely start 3 more little questoris freeblades. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fajita Fan Posted May 22, 2020 Share Posted May 22, 2020 (edited) Bit of a background question about Ordo Sinister. The Emperor demanded 25 titans from the Mechanicum. Do they still fall under the Collegia Titanica? Only reason i ask is because my scibor order of lion bits has turned up and I'm wondering if I should bother cometely removing all hints of the Collegia titanicus 'T' symbol from the armour. So use the blank shoulder armour plates, remove/hide the 'T' from the thigh armour and laser blaster armour trim. Removing the trim is probably going too far down the rabbit hole, but hey it's less trim to paint!!! There's a thread on the Ordo Sinister. My understanding is that they do not come under the Collegia. They have their own symbol which is kind of like the Collegia symbol but different. I've removed the Collegia symbols from mine, along with quite a bit of GS work on the armour panels. I've also pledged to actually finish the thing for this lockdown painting challenge. My understanding as well is that the psi-titans are not only the Emperor's own personal project but that the Mechanicum would view them as an abomination. Combining psykers with a precious avatar of the machine god would probably not be popular in many Martian circles. However the only "official" grainy photo in the HH black book (number 7?) has the lion head being a flat transfer inside the middle of the Collegia gear. That image also doesn't have the Ciricrux on top and the gun is faded out because no official model had been made yet, it's like FW hadn't fully fleshed out the look when they wrote the 28mm rules for the psi-titan. It won't let me hotlink the image. https://vignette.wikia.nocookie.net/warhammer40k/images/d/d3/WarlordSinister.jpg/revision/latest?cb=20180516213434 Edited May 22, 2020 by Fajita Fan splayedpaintbrush 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fajita Fan Posted May 23, 2020 Share Posted May 23, 2020 Do you like that look because I don't really care for it, I much prefer the 3d lions people have been doing. I just found a couple of unassembled Thunderwolves in my collection of boxes so I might use their heads to make a more Witcher-themed psi-titan, dunno.

I also like the freehand symbol that was on warhammer community recently. The 3d sculpted stuff looks great though, I have some stuff from Scibor to mess with. But I am really impressed with some of the creativity I've seen. Bloodthirster heads or wolf heads into lion symbols for example. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fajita Fan Posted May 24, 2020 Share Posted May 24, 2020 The terrain kits, including the new industrial terrain, are in their list of items that will get a price increase. If you want 'em get 'em now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

malika666 Posted May 29, 2020 Share Posted May 29, 2020 Today in Titanicus... Im pondering a lot if a smallscale (6-8mm) version of the whole INQ28 movement would be possible and if people would be interested in such a thing... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Im pondering a lot if a smallscale (6-8mm) version of the whole INQ28 movement would be possible and if people would be interested in such a thing... What for? Not sure we need a travel version of Inquisitor, while none of us are allowed out. Edit: not that it doesn't sound like fun, but I reckon people like INQ28 because the models are available at that scale.

schoon Posted May 30, 2020 Share Posted May 30, 2020 I know folks have done 6mm Space Hulk, which allows for some much bigger games. Since (for me) converting figures is such a big part of Inq28, I'm not sure that would help the game fill its hobby role. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fajita Fan Posted May 30, 2020 Share Posted May 30, 2020 6mm space hulk? What is this, a game for ants? That needs to be at least...three times bigger! Sword Brother Adelard 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
malika666 Posted May 30, 2020 Share Posted May 30, 2020 Kinda depends how you do it. Sure, you can go 'micro versions' of existing games. We've seen Nano Space Hulk, Micro Hammer, etc. Another way to go is to try to add that crazy level of detail and narrative thinking of the INQ28 on smaller scale stuff. Imagine a 6mm version of Gelida the Frozen Expanse or Tor Meggido. Yet another way to go is to put way more emphasis on the terrain, this is something that could be amazing for Necromunda, imagine a 6mm hive table, no more just a room or two, but an entire district! As for Titanicus in INQ28 style, I mean...check this out! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheDreadfulSagittary Posted May 30, 2020 Share Posted May 30, 2020 (edited) Today in Titanicus... I started working on two Warhounds to finally finish my Regia Maniple for the Legio Fureans! Hopefully I will finish the building part today and tomorrow I will be able to prime them Edited May 30, 2020 by TheDreadfulSagittary malika666 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
winterdyne Posted May 31, 2020 Share Posted May 31, 2020 Got the weapon banners done and fitted today. Really not sure I like them overall (I do like the waist banners) on Warhounds. Might like 'em more on the bigger boys. Moving onto a pair of Reavers next. Mendi Warrior and Dark Bjoern 2 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
schoon Posted May 31, 2020 Share Posted May 31, 2020 Nice work on the weapon banners. I'm planning to use AoS ChainRasp "tatters" for weapon banners, as in my imagination they'd be pretty hard worn! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mandragola Posted June 1, 2020 Share Posted June 1, 2020 Those banners are very nicely done. I think the best ones I've seen have been made with paper (or really thin plasticard) and jewellery chain. So far I haven't felt like bothering with that though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So far I haven't felt like bothering with that though. Yeah, I started making this range to go on a commission piece where I really didn't want to mess with jewellery chain - it does look good, but it's very fiddly, very time consuming. These still need a bit of work, but it's easier going (once you're familiar with the material) than trying to hold chain in place with tweezers. These also glue to weapons much more robustly and as these guys are magnetised I needed that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mandragola Posted June 1, 2020 Share Posted June 1, 2020 Oh nice, didn't know you were the one making those. I think I've seen them on quite a few people's engines. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
winterdyne Posted June 1, 2020 Share Posted June 1, 2020 Yeah, they're quite popular. They do take some work though, and the material can be tricky to work with at first till you get to grips with it. Main thing is to have a REALLY sharp knife.

Fajita Fan Posted June 1, 2020 Share Posted June 1, 2020 So today's WC preview page has some Necrons that would look awesome hacked up at AT scale as knights for a custom xenos army. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
splayedpaintbrush Posted June 4, 2020 Share Posted June 4, 2020 Today in ebay-icus I was shocked (actually not that shocked) at the prices of AT decal sheets from FW for the various Legio. But then I saw this Psi-Titan upgrade kit... https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/114248138843 Seriously? Is it really worth that much? Probably its weight in gold! I have no words left.

Fajita Fan Posted June 5, 2020 Share Posted June 5, 2020 eBay is a pretty expensive option. I’m trying to find a plastic Eldar d cannon for a Wraithseer conversion and I may as well buy the FW model. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mandragola Posted June 5, 2020 Share Posted June 5, 2020 I think this is just people taking advantage of the fact you can't currently buy anything from FW. Sucks, a lot. I suggest waiting till the kit is available. The Psi-titan isn't such a bad buy in my opinion. It comes with a couple of sunfuries, so you can have one on the psi-titan and a spare for one of your other warlords. On the other hand, laser blasters are a pretty awful choice for the carapace, so you might need a resin gun for that, or some missile launchers from elsewhere.

SkimaskMohawk Posted June 5, 2020 Share Posted June 5, 2020 I'm doing this on behalf of my buddy; Today (was yesterday actually) he got kicked from the Adeptus Titanicus 2018 Facebook group for having 3d printed 6mm armigers on the account of IP infringement. But in the middle of his conversation with the mod team was told if they were from Vanguard then they'd apologize and restore his posts. Are some people really that...vociferous about protecting gw when the offending content is stuff they have never made models of? I'd get full on recast titans and knights, but man, a model gw doesn't make and probably never intends to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
