This is my Armor-forge-cast-world Luci-mars pattern Reaver franken-titan... This started off as sorta joke project a number of years ago that I finally decided to do something about. With the exception of some minor parts from Blood and Skull industry, Quantum Gothic, and ZInge Industries this titan is composed of ebay finds; starting with what was a broken and messed up Armorcast Reaver titan, an aftermarket alternate head for the Armorcast Reaver, an ebay lot of a few Forgeworld Lucius Pattern warhound titan pieces, and off of ebay a set of Laser Blasters one of which was extremely broken. From Blood and Skull Industry I've used his alternate engines for a baneblade; located on the back side. From Quantum Gothic I used one of their turret weapon bases which I used to add a little height and detail to the waist. From Zinge industries, I used his adjustable pistons (on the feet) and flexible rivet strips (everywhere). All in all it cost me less than $200 for all the ebay finds.

Still left is some gap filling, some plasticard work, and finding some missiles to insert into the launcher.

This things heavy. Right now its approaching 8 lbs.

Not bad! It looks a bit overgunned is all, but that's what the very idea of a battlecruiser used to be! Do you know how tall he is compared to a modern day forgeworld reaver?

It's 14.5 inches to the top of the pod and 15 inches tall to the tip of the pod's spikes. The Forgeworld Reaver Titan is 16 inches tall.

Awesome, I like the feet detailing and the new head works well with the Armorcast body! Are you going to paint it up soon?

In the Imperial doctrine there is no such thing as overgunned

I like it!, do you plan on a contemporary or more old school paint scheme?

I'm planning on painting it Legio Metallica, so it will be red, with gold trim, metal details, and black and white stripes. It's a straight forward paint scheme, but it goes with my Forge World Metallica Skitarii and my House Raven Knights.
