Dittos on the thumbs up for v2 and the pm for the cost.

Guys, I don't think the "2nd one" is redstarone's work...

Aaaand I want one. Pretty sweet indeed. I love it when people put stuff like this together. I'm probably going to have to buy one of those. Time to start a scratch build of my own.

That model looks very familiar. It does seem that he is just assembling it.

I can't tell though, because of the gumdrop bolts on the helmet... no offense, but those are gumdrops.

"Note"
Great work Redstar, just fix the gumdrop bolts.

I love your weapon design BTW, really well done.

Commodore Perry,
Unfortuately I will not be able to send you a cost for this knight. I picked him up on ebay about a year ago, and just got to building him. I may still have the contact info for the seller in my ebay account. If I can find it I'll send it to you.

I think the confusion is people think your posts are me, posting kits for sale.

People please note that the 2nd kit he posted is not mine nor is it for sale. Sorry for any confusion people are having.

Hey Everyone,
Sorry for the confusion. I'm simply posting my progress on constructing this titan for everyone to see. I am not producing or selling them. I apologize again for any problems this may have caused. On a different note, I have contacted the original maker of this knight titan via email to see if he's still making/ selling them. If so, and Redstone doesn't have an issue with it, as this is originally his post, I'll post the sellers contact info on here once I receive a response that he is. If he's not making them anymore I'll let everyone know as soon as possible.

Hey Guys,
Here are a couple more updates of my current knight titan project. Unfortunately I didn't get nearly as much done as I had hoped. Anyways, here are three pics of his base. I'm going to convert the Chimera to a traitor guard vehicle. My goal is to have it look like the knight destroyed the vehicle, and is standing on the front of it lining up his next shot. I'll add more pics in the coming days.

: O. OMG they are evolving.
Cool.

And they have a plan.

He's got a little "Captain" in him!








You be the judge...

Hey guys new update,
I've made some progress on the Knight Titans' base. My goal was to make it look like th knight had just killed a traitor Chimera. I think I've done that pretty solidly. I've done my best to make it look like one round hit the front of the track assembly, effectively disabling the vehicle. My goal was for the second round to enter the top of the APC, near the troop compartment, and exit near the rear portion of the opposite track assembly. Nothing makes armor look melted better than fire so I took a lighter to all the impact damage. What do you think?

PS: If my Knight Titan princeps drank before a battle, he would totally drink Captain Morgans.

Your battle damage is looking pretty fantastic. Titan pose worked out nicely, too.

whetheror not he's got a little Captain in him or not, it's lookin great!

Very nice look that you have done with that.

Hello Gentleman,
Here's another update for my current knight titan project. Things have been coming along slow, but steady. I hope to finish the knight by the end of the week. What do you think?

looks good man waiting on my other arms for my titan to put it together still.

those knights are so bad ass

I think the CCW needs wires running at the wrist.

I think it would be helpful if the Knight Titan that is NOT redstarone's version was split out of this Blog and placed in its own?

Yes, that would be good...

I have started it's own thread, unfortunately my newby self didn't realize how easy it was when I first started posting. A little heads up on how to delete it from this post and I'll make it happen.

No need for that!

Your post referencing your new post should be sign post enough!

Do-it-yourself head options!

At the last Apoc game, my club-mate once again bashed the Knight head, saying it's perfect for Chaos, but not for Imperial. Said it needed the cheek bumps off and some kind of grill plate. So I snapped off the head right then and there and handed it to him. I said, Joe, go for it.

So this is what he came up with:





There you go! If anyone wants a head like this for their Knight Titan, just say the word! It's in the mold right now, and I'll get a pic of the test pull a little later.



As a side note, I found another head option for the Knight... and I think I really like this one. If you recall, I stuck a T-600 head on one back in the Fall. So now, here is what the EOD 1/6-scale helmet from HALO looks like:



I'm liking this one so much, I've gone ahead and snapped off the Terminator head and the original head off my two "advertising" Knights, ground the neck ring down flush and glued the display mount flush to the front. With the display mount, I can have him look right and left! I'll take another pic of those when they dry.

Out of the heads available, I like the EOD head the best. I feel it gives him a little attitude and character. I also like how with very little work, the display mount can be used, and he can now look anywhere he wants to... which makes for some good pics.











I'll try to take a close-up pic of how I mounted it.

Nice I think it needs rougue head though

I second that motion. And anyone else think it seems a bit harsh on the squashy IG in their transporter to be stepping on it?

Looking amazing. The base with the tank is the best. Can't wait to see it painted.

The new upgrades for the Knight kits are going out this week to Trooper.

2 new heads. Very different then the current one that people arent fond of.

2 new armor style sets. Shoulder and shins shaved down smooth with trim like standard Imperial stuff. The other set is shaved down but made with layered plate armor similiar to a techmarine.

3 ranged weapons. A melta style, a twin autocannon style and a large bore projectile cannon.

3 Close combat weapons. A buzz saw, a power lance and a hydrolic ram.

Final thing is a missle pack that can fit on its back to turn it into the knight class with long ranged attacks. I cant recall the name off hand.

-----------

Like before tropperpx will be casting and shipping. Unlike before he will also be taking payment for our kit. That way people need not worry about me.

There are also a few custom parts made fro other people such as a power fist and an alternate cannon. Those will be cast as well but the originals will go to the clients as they will pay for the design, not a cast part. That said those parts once cast will go for sale.

Trooper and I have discussed making the kit completely modular. As in each customer can pick and choose what armor, heads, and weapons they want.

This will all be back on track next week.

So for those wanting one but thought you missed your chance, nows the time.

We may also off the ability to mag out your kit to switch weapons and such for various battles.

As soon as I have the new parts in-hand I will be posting pics. That will give you a quick first opportunity to see the new options.

Then as time permits, I'll moc-up a new Knight body and use blutac to show you all of the different ways the parts can be combined together... ...making an easy to follow chart for ordering exactly what you want. After initial relaunch sales, the arm options and new heads will be offered seperately.

I used a heavy-duty coat hangar to pin my left arm kit-bash weapons on. With just friction, it holds on just fine, and can rotate along that same axis to guard in or parry out. I send a length along upon request so any arm can be swapped out. I'll take a pic for reference.

Stay tuned!

Sounds awesome!

I'm a BIG fan of the whole "Knight" class of Titan - looking forward to seeing the new stuff!
