Paint them up as Primarchs - problem solved!

(But yeah, maybe shim the Emperor up a bit too! )

thanks for comments, i raised the emperor up by making another plinth to go on top of the first and i must admit looks better now above space marine statues also made back wall for tower that will hold the aquila tower, with stained glass window, started to paint a few thigs up while i had airbrush out finishing some orks, thanks for looking

More power to you! It would be great to see an Emperor class titan that figures could maneuver on. Could be a great scenario.

Any one of these component parts would make great terrain, or scenario bait. All of them together is a level of awesome I have yet to see in the gaming world on this side of the pond.

thank youfor kind words, lots more to come

Where did you get that Emperor statue?



And more importantly, where can I get one?

This entire project is mindblowing. Nicely done!

If I may make a small request, it would be useful if you put a random 28mm model next to some of your shots because it is really hard to keep in mind the enormous scale of some of these shots compared to the rest of the game. Thank you and keep building.

thanks and will do

Any plans to cast it up?

You made that Emperor statue from milliput? OMG!

This is such an amazing project.

after a small break back onto the beast, made the supporting tower for aquila tower, added a couple alcoves each side for quad guns, couple door going each side still some panelling to do either side, pinted upthe space marine statues and emperor just got to marbe the base and add some icons, started painting base coats to everything, still more weapons to add yet but this is where i'm at, thanks for looking

By far one of my favourite P&M blogs. Always great to see the project progressing.

Wow this is looking so sweet. May have to clear the decks and have a go myself, inspiring stuff. Love how it's all coming together

I really like the quad guns in the alcoves. I think you are really capturing the feel that not only is it an amazing war machine that it also serves as a chapel of sorts and possibly is more symbolic than functional. Amazing progress so far.

AMAZING as always!

This is such an ambitious and amazing project. I am so excited to see this through to the end. Any idea how tall it will stand in real life if fully built? Keep up the great work

thanks for comments

This is all looking fantastic so far, and I love what you've done with the Emperor statue, It's great to see it painted up .

Just read through this entire thread with my jaw on the floor.

This is amazing. And am I the only one that is now even more blown away by the fact that he sculpted that Emperor satue?! Holy crap son do you have a thread on that piece of work as well?

Anyways totally in awe of your ability to make a vision come to life. Keep up the great work.

I haven't checked in on this P&M blog in a while - MUCH to my detriment! This has come SO far in a month! Incredible work! The emperor model is the perfect touch here --and excuse me, you sculpted that thing yourself?! good GRIEF - incredible.

had a couple more hours on the beast tooday, finished the top with plastikard and embossed chequer plate plaastikard, usednew and 2nd hand cleaned up manufactorum panels,edged the building with card and rivets from old sprues (thats starting to get old:0) painted some source lighting witht the airbrush (a godsend on this project) thanks for looking

Utterly amazing. Incredible. No words.

Did I kill it? No progress reports, comments, or pics since I posted...what have I done...what...have...I...done...

Any new news on this?

I have been hanging out for an update. Hope all is still going ahead and there has just not been enough time for photography.

sorry for delay and yes it is still going just not had as much time of late but will be putting some more pictures up soon, thanks

You handmade the Emperor statue? Sir, I must ask, has forge world hired you yet?

hi all, sorry it's been a while but finally i have been able to get back to the beast, i was going to puit the fortress part on mdf but this maybe too heavy so going to try it on a couple of thick cardboard layers with embossed chequer plate if works, pictures of a little dry run on floor and to get size and shape have started to paint tower behind emperor and will post pictures when complete and has stained glass windows in, to the rear of the fortress will be a massive comms base to one side and a landing pad to other with led lights thanks as always for comments/suggestions

This is looking very good. The back of your titan will have more buildings than most of the 40K battlefields that I have played on!

as expected when i placed it on body it bent backwards a touch, my solution to this will lay in the base as my vision this comes from the beginning of the terminator film where the terminator walks through a ruined city with thousands of skulls on the floor, one of the buildings will support under the body at rear which means i will have to make the base before attaching fortress and casting hundreds of skulls i'm also going to have to build the fortress support body up a bit to distribute the weight better and for a decent sized head
