I could be a judge if you'd like. I'm one of those people that like to see models detailed and painted and like to judge. :)

As for you, I will slaughter you if you stand in my way. Death to the righteous, death to the holy, and death to those that offer their praises to the emperor!"

Well this is just my basic materials, talk about being cheap, this all cost me a grand total of $2 (thats in total for 3 of each bowl and I had the power sockets lying around in the shed)

I'm starting to think my quality in work might be begining to slip  :P



For my stompas I'm going for a similar design to the one done by Mousemuffins that was used in the Fall of Medusa campaign, just with extra shooty fings n watsitdooz dat any orkz stompa should av to make em good n killy.

Hi guys!  Just found this site while researching about building a 40k Warlord Titan, what luck happens to be the last entry day!!! So I will enter with an Imperial Warlord Titan, weighing in at (measuring?) 24 inches tall or so.

Do we *have* to update a single post?

Here's  my start, anyway:





Not sure if it will reach the 8 inches *exactly*, but I can probably make it get to there with guns on top, etc.


Woo, 2k posts.

You don't *have* to, but it is reccomended because it frees up space, and all of your updates are in the same place.

Doesnt updating a single post mean we'll nver be able to see the whole building process, since there is a limited text space.

Seems a tad weird.

touche, i never thought of that. So ya, just post replies. I dont think we should make our own threads since we dont want to spam the konversion forum.

Okay, working on ideas for the cockpit now. I think I'm gonna use a land speeder for the basic shape of the cockpit and then use plasticard to build around it.

Also have the base all planned! Let's just say it involves a squad of guardsmen, a chimera, and a nine pound hammer!  ;D

OK, I've finished the base structure on the legs of my warhound.  As you'll see, I decided to go with a retro look and have based my titan on the original epic design.

Ok, forget that pansy knight, i'll enter this properly, I'm doing a Chaos Warhound now.

That's acceptable, right?

Some progress.  The legs are largely done now.  I had a bit of a setback when I didn't like how I did the upper legs on my first go at detailing them up and had to redo them.

Well, its been a while, but I finanlly made enough progress to get some pics up.

Here are all the legs done:

A size comparison:

And a view of the top. You can see this has a sort of framework support apperance:


I decided to go with a set of titan templates for the top half and create a spider-centaur kind of like the defiler... I have all the plasticard peices cut out and should have pics soon when they are assempled (hopefully).

I realize the mods are going to kill me for bringing this up again, but this may be the end of this.

I personally, due to schoolwork, 2 jobs, plus a bunch of other stuff, will not be able to finish my titan. I almost have the skeleton for the upper body done. I will definetly not have enough time to get the lower skeleton, armor, weapons, details... by April. If you are still working on your titan, please post. If not, please do not, and we shall see where we go from here.

I'm still going and I have a lot of updates. I kind of had my own deadline of an apocalypse megabattle to meet within the timeframe of this competion so I did a lot of work while the site was down. I apologize, some of the pics are kind of blury...

I don't really know the protocol here, but I finished and have painted pics. I know this isn't a painting competition (and thats good beacuse I am not a good painter) but I put up these for anyone who is interested in seeing the end result...

I have to say I never would have gotten it done without this competition getting me really into the idea ;D
