El Arte de Warhammer 40.000

Hi guys!

Just giving a shout out for Kiski's blog, I don't understand much Spanish but his scratch-building is simply amazing. I have been lurking around it for a little while now ;). At the moment he is building a reaver titan, and it is so AWESOME that there are no other words for it. So go check his blog out!

Can you believe that this is scrathbuilt? NEAT!

Head over to his blog to see the rest!

Presents and a little more titan work

Happy belated christmas everyone!

Oh yeah

Work on Titan Update

So, I'm back in England from the summer and so will not be able to continue the titan and won't have as many battle reports until october or in the worst case december. For now keep reading for a post tomorrow.

Titan Building Part 3

Tilted up side

I have now got it up and standing. I am planning the weapons and not sure which side to place the head. It is slightly unstable as the bottom leg joint is unglued and moves, but I will fix it in place once I add the head and possibly even after I attach the arms. Apart from that I need to add a bit more detail, maybe a few Imperial eagles out of green stuff or something.

Back to the head problem. Putting it on one side will mean the body is slightly tilted up and look as though it has knees which are way too far forward. Putting the head on the other side will mean it and the arms are angled downwards, solving one problem, but it will look kinda stupid as the "knee things" will stick out the back.

Titan Building Part 2

Close up of Head

I have carried on, finished the second leg, made an icon mechanicus sort of sign where the At-at head should've been and attached the legs to the body. I have also started trying to make the guns. I am planning to use two small fan handles as the barrels, then for the vulcan mega-bolter attach the  rocket pods from a valkyrie and for the plasma blastgun I am planning to extend the power reservoir on an leman russ exterminator cannon. If you have any suggestions please comment. Meanwhile here are some pics of my progress so far.

Beginning to build a Warhound Titan.

Me holding the head to the body

So, two days ago I went shopping for materials (plastic card mostly) but instead got a different idea. Since I don't want to completely mess up my first large scratch build I bought a plastic at-at which in my opinion would make the rough shape or even the base of a titan, it's even pretty much the right height. The only thing I'm not yet sure about are the legs which I'll probably only use two of and bulk them out.

Now I've made a lot of progress and made one leg, the body and head completely. Here's some photos to show how I'm getting along so far.

Just the body by itself.

Titan Building

Since I have begun playing some Apocalypse matches, I have decided to try and make a Titan. I mean at least one if I am successful as 300 pounds is a bit over the top I think. I will start with a warhound and am already gathering supplies and plans. I really like LackOfbettername's warhound and have found the exact plans he used to build his amazing warhound. Also, the apocalypse match next week gives me the perfect excuse to make or at least start making one. Links and pictures below.
