Just been adding a little more to the back of the titan, these pipes are made from bendy straws.

Some time ago I WAs asked what the Laser cannon would look like, so I have temperally mounted the Laser cannon on the arm.

Also I have been playing about with banners, Since I want this Titan in the Inquisition, see what you think?

Hi all, I have been playing with different designs for the legs since most of the other titans have boxy legs, I was going to go with tubular top to the main knee joint with various shock absorbers, the the lower half rectangle to the foot, with a knuckle joint to the foot, like on the dreadnought, with shock absorbers out to the toes.( how ever anyting could change)
This will be made from 32mm (11/4") waste pipe and various smaller pipes and just a little bit of Lego.
I will start construction of the legs tomorrow. 8) 8) 8) ;D ;D ;)

The legs look a bit skinny ... almost like chicken legs. ;D ;)

Just kidding.

It looks very promising so far. I'm waiting in anticipation for the final product.

Ok its leg time,

You have all seen the pic of the original skeleton legs, now I have started to put meat onto the bones.

First I used 32mm (11/4") pipe covers, 1 x top of leg, 2 x to make knee joint, 1 x for ankle joint.

I also used a 32mm plastic nut, plastic bottle caps, rain water gutter down pipe (68mm) and foam board + a little lego with some various pipes.

see what you think, still a little more to add on the legs.

Before you post, you should have a look at a Warlord Titan and the width of the legs, the legs of a Warlord Titan are not thick and chunky, and Tryanotherone comments where about the skeleton legs not the up to date ones.
Even the Warlord Titan in the Bell Of Lost souls legs are thiner than this one AND THAT IS A SHOW PIECE TITAN
As for the feet they are not even finished yet,   you should read the whole project before you post

So sorry Guys and Dolls no more post on this project due to comments made, like (Do you ever react to post? or are your posts crossblog entries?) which is out of order.

I have spent many hours on this project and since comments like the above why should I even bother posting the Poject.

Look, this titan has thick legs, yours are a bit thin.

the upperbody looks great, the legs are a No, No, i agree with tryanotherone they are to thin, i hope the armour plate are big. also the feet are somewhat flat

Emphasis mine, he was saying that he hoped that you would make the legs a bit more meaty and giving a comment that you could use to improve during development rather than after you had finished.  If you really feel that you need to hide from someone on the internet who made a comment on a public thread to help you, then feel free.

If you do intend to read more comments, then I agree that it needs more meat, and could use some posing, though I don't know how hard that would be to do on your project.

Best of luck,

I started this post just to show all how it can be done, I don't mind constructive comments but, before the comments are made, they should check facts, Some Warlord titans have been built with square and rectangle legs, but if look at the Epic Warlord Titan which this is based on then you will see Legs are the correct thickness, with out armour plates,
armour is last thing to be added.

Now took at the top of the Leg, Please notice the thickness? Its Thin.

I hope this put any arguments about the legs to sleep!!!

It was just my Opinion no need to be angry about it, and see according the picture the hipjoints are almost as big as his head, so also the width of the legs should just slightly less than the width of his head.

But still great job, don't get me wrong

Wait, so someone mentioning that they think the legs look too thin isn't constructive?  Sorry, but that's overly touchy.

Heaven forbid someone actually says something harsh.

As for us checking facts...we are.  If anything those pictures simply prove that the legs are too thin for the torso.  And the torso looks good, don't get me wrong, but the legs need to be bulked out more.  And slightly lengthened.

What can I say, this guy is working hard to build some thing that we can only dream of, YOU SHOULD NOT BE A CRITIC (unless you can do any better?), just enjoy the Project Blog and I am sure that this Titan will end up brill!

Very good work so far, keep it up

I think why he got a little peed is because of the comment ( Do you ever react to post? or are your posts crossblog entries?) especially the first part, since if you have read the whole blog, he does give people their answers.


but now we are ruining this blog with all our post

All comments have been noted,  I forgot to all the main pipe work down the middle of the leg, now she looks thicker, s for the main hip joint mine are 10mm smaller than the scale, best i could do.

I have added dampeners to 4 toes on the foot, see what you think.
