I'd love to see some pictures of your engines TheDrescher, sounds really awesome

Very good work,specially the knight titan

Here's an update of what have been going on at the forges for the last while.
The mechanicus force will be escorted by some close friends on their top secret mission, the Iron Hands. So here's my small IH escort (That might grow bigger at some point, who knows ) These are all WIP's and the rhino has only got one layer of white on the hatch symbols and some interior paint so far.

excellent stuff.

Looking good~!

Awesome stuff - as always!

Any chance of some more pictures of that excellent dreadnought?

Especially close ups of both weapon arms?

Here ya go Alpharius, and thanks for the kind words

Thanks!

You've made the old Chaos Dread into something really, really nice!

How did you make the Power Fist arm/hand?

I'm glad you think so too

I made the arm from the original power claw, replaced the claw itself with the old imperial dreadnought smoke launcher and made some fingers from tube. then I mounted the DA dread shin armour over the hand as a guard.

Insanely awesome titans! I'm flabbergasted to the point of being illiterate...

Yep iron live up to the Ad Mech gods standards very custom and fun. especially like those gothic leg greaves( centre right )
and the ven dread.

Wow. Normally I'm not a fan of scratch-built Titans (the level of detail is never really there on larger Titans) but your work is superb!

I'm really a fan of the smaller Titans - the Knight Titan is really something awesome, and I love the detail on it.

I'm also really interested in the smaller models you've done - what's the thing with the four assault cannons?

Well, you achieved the impossible and made the Chaos dread look cool. Nice work, sir.

I would love to commend you on the dread with two two twin-linked assault cannons, but I am too busy seething with envy. Excellent work on everything.

Mind your step around the puddle of drool.... sry its all just awesome!

Love the dread!

Thanks guys - I finished the dread and undercoated it.




Some better pics will be up at a later point as these where taken in a rush.

The undercoat helps me see everything more clearly. It looks great.

I have been working a bit on the details for the reaver, these are still mostly unattached and sits with tag so far, so if you have any suggestions for different locations they could sit feel free to comment.







And a size comparison:

wow, perfect reaver

Beautiful.

I utterly love your Knight Paladin. It tempts me to scratch-build a Revenant, but I don't have enough bitz. Either way, it's seriously cool. Are you going to paint the driver in it?

Yeah at some point when I get around to it, the cockpit and driver of the knight will get painted as well.
I just got a lot going on atm

So I've been doing a lot of work on the warlord, it has received a lot of new "skin" in the form of plasticard for smoother and easy to detail surfaces. The picture of the rectangle is a top-view shot of the engine, showing the compartment where the tech priest will be residing (he is currently on his way in the mail from FW). The engineroom will have a lot of detail but I'll get to that later in constuction.

The head is nearing it's final shape and detailing of the interior will soon begin, but for now you'll have to do with the pics of the head tscked to the torso.








Here's a comparison shot of the warlord and the reaver, it's starting to look like something now.


And a shot of the reaver.


I also got my hands on this, the now OOP forge world opus machina.

As always, awesome stuff!

It is nice to see 'scratch built' Titans on the field, as it give me hope to one day being able to field one myself, however unlikely that particular case may be!

You can do it Alharius

Here's some interior shots of the head:

Got the legs ready and under coated. They need the armour plates but I think they are somewhat done otherwise. Basecoat is black and then boltgun spray.

Just wondering but are the legs made out of the planetstrike landing pad? Was looking at pic and thought i recognised some of the parts.

All of these pics look briliant i am tempted to try and make one myself.

Yeah There's two drop pods, a manticore and a skyshield in there And if you start be sure to let me know and good luck ;D

this is amazing man, i wish i could build something like that...have a couple of warhounds to back up my marines

any plans for an imperator down the track?

Thanks dude No there's no plan to build an imperator at any point, if I ever build another titan it'll be a renegade one. Probably legio mortis
