I posted images of this titan on my Warhound thread and now I've discovered another scratch built Warlord titan.

They seem to be multiplying like jackrabbits so if anyone has Warlord titan images to share post them here and be sure to credit the builder if known.

I'll start the ball rolling with this beauty by Dave Smith.

:O I played against that very warlord in a battle, its actually displayed at my local GW... freaking awsome i must say... It wrecked face D:

Do you play at the Bunker in Southern California... Not sure what city it's in but I live in the general area. That bad boy is on display there now and I was talking to the red shirts about it not too long ago.

Very Astonishing

Do you think you could get in touch with the owner Dave Smith and persuade him to let us have some more pictures/ joint our forum/ show more of his building images and techniques, some of which I have; see below. In lieu of that could you take some pictures yourself with the owner's permission of this monster.

Thanks,

An amazing Titan.

It was featured on BOLS some time ago.

oh, and what would happen if my orkzis got their paws on such a thing? I am having a meltdown just thinking about it.

Well this started out as a super sized Reaver but is closer to warlord sized (22 inches tall). So the working title is Reaverlord.



Still a WIP, but moving along briskly:

I am starting to detail the inside.

Dave Smith's warlord is fantastic, from the pictures it is the best big 40k scratchbuild I have seen.

YEA! A titan thread. I love to look at peoples titans, specially when they end up looking bad ass

As for getting in touch with Dave Smith... if i see him around there when i go every so often i will deffinitely try to get him to join/get more pics... i think i was actually going to make some lights for his warlord too, but never got to talk to him again...

Stunning build and paintwork!!!

Inspiring. Absolutely amazing. Look at that detail. I want to know how it was added. Carved in? Greenstuffed on? What? It is a thing of beauty. I can't imagine how many hours went into the construction.

Dave Smith's Warlord certainly sets the bar. I think it's combination of extra attention to detail and getting the right proportions that really makes it right on the money.

indeed, this model is without a doubt one of the best
(probably the best period) models (scratchbuilt) that i have EVER seen!

It's indeed inspiring to get so many replies on this thread already. I posted the same images on my Warhound thread

http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/30/226296.page

and in a few months received about the same as in just one day here.

I hesitate to post a lot of images of this next Warlord as I don't have permission from the creator but I hope one won't hurt. Dave Smith posted his on an open site so I figured it was okay to praise his work as long as I could provide his name to go with it.

This artist employs a sobriquet so rather than overstep the bounds I'll just post one image and hope he give permission to post the rest or better still joins this forum.

When I first saw this image I thought it was 3D art. The block wall in the background had a definite artificial look to it and the shading just didn't fit the images. THe buildings were too crisp in the foreground and background in short everthing looked in focus which just doesn't usually happen in a photograph.

Since then I have seen the model in different settings and the overall impression I get is it's real and it's awesome. A different interpretation than Dave's but inspiring none the less.

Dave calculated his beast to be 133 feet tall that translates to 28 inches in 40K scale. this model is 26 inches tall according to the builder. Still head and shoulders above a diminuitive Warhound.

Yarr, i remmember Dave saying that he based his strictly off the epic scale warlord titan...

I personally think its better in this scale then the scale of 36" high that i hear alot of people say <_<

Bulldog UK has some brilliant warlords (and other scratchbuilt stuff) on his website:

http://www.tanksandtrolls.co.uk/40KTitan%20company.htm

Since he has them all on a public website, I doubt he wouldmind if I posted just one little pic here.

this is insane guys. wow!! amazing!!

Why even BRING Space Marines to a battle that involves a massive Warlord like that? To take objectives, I guess!

I saw that titan at Games Day last year as well as a Grey Knight Warhound. It's freaking huge!!

That first warlord simply made my mouth drop! I wish I could possess just a tiny ounce of the creator's modeling prowess.

Actually its way bigger than a warlord, he made it a new class. Its soemwhere on Warseer... he converted a mega power fist holding a limp chaos warhound titan.

I dont even need to say what this is. Its death.



This dwarfs warlords

Holy folding couches Batman! How'd you even get that though the door?

Very nice work.

You don't fit it through doors. It walks in through the wall.

Titans! This is great, to have them all in one place like this (or at least the links). Thank you for posting these

WOW!!! That Titian is so awsome.. Actually all of the Titians that are scratch built look great. I like that both versions made it to 40k scale. If anyone wants to get rid of one I would love to work out a dewal for one.

HOLY LORD!!! Now THAT is a friggin TITAN! I think playing with that should allow you to win the battle on a 2+ lol

Here are a few pics that I've 'stolen' off the internet. Not sure exactly who owns/made them all, but I'm sure you can trace some of them. I keep a library of photos like this if I ever get enough time/money to make my dreams come true and construct a warlord!!

2nd form botom in s.j.mccartney post is the chaos warlord titam from the old siege of the emperor's palace diorama at warhammer world in nottingham UK, sham ethey destroyed most of those old displays they were entertaining

Did he make it based on this?
