Chaos Titan Update (With Pictures)

Published by Joe B

So here are the promised pictures of my WIP Chaos Warhound Titan. The plans were from the bwc-archive Yahoo Group. I’ve been using various thicknesses of plastic card, foam board and plastic strips. I’ve done some sketching on the model with a Sharpie to get an idea of markings and adjustments to the model. So far it is really sturdy (and heavy…) so I’m not too worried about it getting knocked around in a game (unlike a paper version). The back took some work as the paper templates had nothing on the back side. I liked the look of the pipes on the Forge World model and imitated that. Also the vents were built one fin at a time because I couldn’t find anything that fit correctly. The engine top is from the Manufactorium set cut down to fit inside.

Baneblade is built!

Published by Joe B

Even though I had plenty of other units to build and paint to even field a full 1750pt game I was too excited for the Baneblade. I spent many a hour putting this massive and amazing kit together. It was the little details that really made this model shine, the gun barrels are already hollow (no drilling out needed), each panel is covered in rivets, hatch access points and unfortunately Aquillas. I spent about half my time scraping of this symbols of the corpse fool and replacing them with Chaos stars and army markings. I did run into one issue, the right side of the main turret was missing from the box. I went back the GW store and they generously opened a new box and gave me the missing piece (I think they are going to build a Skull Hamma’ from the rest of it). Once I get some more details and Chaos add-ons I will post some pictures!
