--++ Legio Solaria Titans ++--

Managed to get a full re-render of the group shot in with the various updates and such that have been going on in the background, including the addition of the Leviathan over on the left hand side of the image.

And, just because i happened to have a basic model of them handy for other purposes, here is a scale size comparison of the titans against a couple of "real world" landmarks, being Elizabeth Tower (Big Ben), and One WTC (Freedom Tower):

I remain open to suggestions for the next modelling option that might require reconsideration or reinvention... I'm in need of a distraction!

 

I'm much more an Imperium kind of fella - none of your filthy Xenos options!

Ooh ... I have no idea. Maybe write out a list of candidates and roll a dice? (that's probably not much help )

Problem is I've run out of candidates! That's what I need the help with!

Ah, so you've done all of the titan variants ... are there any weapon variants you'd like to do?

Nothing springs to mind. I've got most of the other weapons modelled already, but the loadouts shown in the image are the "best balanced" from an aesthetic perspective to my eye.

 

Might try the conversion beamer variation for the Acastus Knight...

As it turns out, i'm very predictable and easily led...

 

Some slight modifications to the basic Acastus chassis, mostly in the armour.  Added the Karacnos rad mortar to the carapace, with a lovely green glow of the Cherenkov radiation (if you watched TMNT as a teenager in the 90s, or have played C&C Red Alert, you know!)  Obviously the twin-linked conversion beamer main weapons.

 

Still some detailing to do clearly, but the bulk of it is there.

[Lord_Mephistopheles]

Bit of detailing on the Conversion beamers, and a modification to the shoulder armour.

Imaged next to the Porphyrion for comparison.

 

[Firedrake Cordova]

Definitely coming along nicely

Boredom with work has struck again - the tedium has returned.

Having spent 25 mins usefully cleaning out the fluff and greb from my keyboard, i've now run out of distractions.

 

I'm not in the mood to spend more time churning through armour-lining and banding, but I'm feeling the need for creativity.  Anyone got any ideas for anything they think might be worth creating for things that are in the lore that have never been seen, or that could do with an update to more modern aesthetics... i'm open to suggestions!

 

For the love of God, someone please suggest something!
