As the title implies, I’m
Considering saving up a purchasing a Reaver Titan, a found that at the Wartable Games site I can get a recast one for 320 a some change.
Is wartable games a reliable site to go off of for this, or are there any other second hand/ recasting sites that are reliable?
Like obviously they can only destroy the holy God-Machine as a last resort, and the ideal scenario would be to insert a kill team and kill the Heretek crew, but obviously that's easier said than done.
Seeking clarification for a 40k matchup post I plan on posting soon. The scenario being that an Imperator titan was taken over by Hereteks in a hidden Titan hanger 30km away from the borders of a forge-hive.
They removed them a few years back but I noticed today they were back. Great for any Eldar players afer them.
Took a fair few weeks, but my Reaver is finally based. Now to finish the rest of it
Some pics from this past weekends game. 6000pts per side. 5 rounds and xenos got unlimited reinforcements starting turn 3. (Scenario was imperial forces had to hold out as long as possible to allow an evacuation to take place, regardless of outcome, the planet was targeted for exterminatus)
Imperium: Custodes, Warhound Titan, Reaver Titan.
Xenos: Orks and Tyranids
Long story short: The Reaver earned its paint job.
Kill count for Reaver: 2x gork and Mork Stompas, 1x big Stompa, 1x Heirophant (or however it’s spelt, big bug), and a war truck.
Still needs some work here and there but I'll be pausing on this for now to work on some of the rest of what's in here.
Gotta sit down and paint this guy sometime
I just got a warlord titan and just feel like my current tools are not enough to keep this thing structurally sound. I have built all FW necron kits, including the Pylon and Seraptek Heavy Construct. So I am used to working with resin, massive gates, and warping ect but I have never built a titan. the sheer scale of it intimidates me.
What want to know is:
What glue do you use for the titan? (I have a feeling the locktight super glue I normally use wont cut it here)
What gap filler do you use?
What should I pin? Everything? Even for weapon assembly?
Is a hairdryer and warm water still okay for unwarping? (These parts are bigger than other kits I touched so I want to be sure)
Is there a some kind of super guide that everyone uses when building one?
What magnets do people use for the weapons?
Any other advice before I start
Sorry for all the questions, this is the first time a warhammer kit has genuinely scared me haha
It needs a few final touches in spots i kept forgetting, but i feel good about how it turned out
More up to date photos of nurglifying a warlord Titan. The horns were a multi day dilemma. I wanted giant horns but didn’t want to invest the time sculpting/shaping them from scratch. I initially considered driftwood but in the end I settled on sourcing shed deer antler tips and sawing them to shape. Enjoy!
First time using an air brush and man it makes it so much easier.
This just took 1 nights of painting so far.
Work continues on the Reaver Titan, I apologize for bombarding but I’m just trying to keep motivation going!
Shoulder distressed and some decals added. Base has been started. Knee had decals placed onto it. Various scratches added here and there.
…and how it’s going. First post here, third Titan project (second nurgle conversion) and it’s the BIG one. Enjoy!
Lux Furiosa marche parmi nous.
Que sa flamme soit vive et sa colère éternelle !
Good part of the work is done, still need to do the back of it and pick out some details with something other than iron.
I'm trying to go for a more dirty chaos Titan but have been having a hard time finding good videos on the subject any recommendations would help a ton!
Eventually going to paint t a glow on the coils but for now they are cold (and very rusty like the rest of the model)
Cables are black for now, might add some varied cable colors later.
