I put magnets in my arms so I can switch them out once the other ones arrive. I had already put the magnets in earlier so was just needing to add one to the weapon when it got here. Should start priming mine this next week and airbrush it soon afterwords.

I have had some rough goings over night but here are the pics as promised.

This will go up on auction soon unless a past client here wants it. Its literally already in a box.






















Ive changed the head and might go with that style to replace the old one that no one seemed to really like. Even i admit, it wasnt the greatest. This one though, is much nicer.

Im open to any weapon or head ideas, art is helpful but a good amount of written detail will work as well for future upgrades. And im sure trooper is ready to cast anything

EDIT - Its on a dragon forge base by Jeff. He does amazing work and has super fast turn around. Ive done many orderd from him for myself and clients and hes always come through with flying colors. I cant recommend him enough.

My friend picked it up, packed and ready so if anyone is interested before its listed on ebay, nows the time.

Very Nice, did you just greenstuff the Guts?

OOH! NURGLY!

News on new pieces?

As of yesterday (Saturday 5/29), I have yet to receive anything from Matt. So nothing... no new bits.

how tall do these titans stand as compared to a warhound?

krusty wrote:how tall do these titans stand as compared to a warhound?

Their to scale.

I cant find were Trooper or Red specifically stated their size but I seem to remember them saying they were between 8 and 9 Inches. A Warhound stands at 14in. tall.

once I receive mine sometime next week I will let you know for sure.

The Knight Paladin kit that we offer comes in at approximately 8.5" (21.5cm) in height when assembled.

The FW Warhound is 10.5" (26.5cm) in height. Note: The paper-hammer template that you can find on the web is scaled wierd and is taller than it should be... coming in at 13+" tall.

The FW Reaver Titan is 18.5" (46.5cm) in height.






According to tracking, yours is already in Phoenix... so you may have it as early as Tursday!

*girly squeal!*

LOL my wife is pissed about it. and not because of the cost. she is mad because we have 2000pts of nids we got Thursday night and set ourselves a week long deadline to finish them and she knows Ill stop helping once they get here. Also because I didnt go ahead and get the other ones i want.

she is horrible for this addiction!

Someone asked if a Dreadnaught torso would fit in the head space.

Here is a pic, and you can see, with the arm pins still there, it snuggs right in:


Here is a pic with the head extended on a neck "ring" so he can look a little to the side:





I just finished up another Knight core, so I can swap out (with Blu-Tack) and demonstrate the new head, shoulders, shins and weapon arms Matt was making. But as they have yet to arrive, I started monkeying around with another idea I had.

What if the Houses made "contruction" variants of the Kinght chasis? What about a super load-lifter?! Used to help move building supplies... or whole buildings; steady supports as they were secured; empty a hauler... etc. Then I remembered finding a Kenner Aliens Ripley Power Loader at a yard sale last year, and this is what I came up with:

The Dreadnought Head is really cool. would make a cool super heaver Marine walker

Lol those are some really good ideas!

I second the dreadnought head, that looks really good

Hi Guys does anyone wanna split a "Knight Household" Thats a SET of 3 Knight Titans.

Thats a big discount for each of us to get 1 Knight Titan.

It might be easier for each of us to pay seperately to the seller .

Dont know if he would ship them to different addresses if we paid the according shipping.. or if it would need to go to one house then pay addtional shipping to get it to each of our houses..

I am sure those details could be worked out..

Well anyway if someone is interested let me know..

The "Household" discount is intended for a single receipent/person/group/club. One payment (or payments over time) shipped to a single address.

Looking good!

I'm interested now how much did you say the costings were and how long will they be being produced for. Oh and are you willing to ship to the UK?

PM sent.

Thanks

Oh I forgot to ask. what is 2.0? and are you planning on releasing other cc weapons?

Back on 5/22 (also when the first post's subject line was last edited), Matt claims to have put in the mail to me, all of the new head and weapon-arm options he had been working on. Sadly I have yet to receive anything from him. Without them in-hand, and without a tracking number to see where they are enroute, I cannot state with any confidence they will ever become available.

So I can only offer the "original" kit.

Ah ok. Hope they turn up soon.

Yes, 5-22 was indeed a bad day for shipping. apparently a Black hole open somewhere over the state of Texas.
consuming all of 1 shippers boxes... tracking #s and all!

Check you're not being followed by forge world staff despite it being located in britain

Thats quite a shame about the 2.0 i really wanted to see it.

Yeah, That's my argument for sending prototype things in individual pieces

2.0 is NOT dead.

My wife has been severly sick and ive been in another state caring for her.

Im home now.

2.0 is NOT dead.

Redstone, welcome back!! My prayers are with you and your family. We all look forward to updates on 2.0

Its great to finally be able to sign on here! Im glad to be back and ready to handle anything that comes at me!

So here is my Knight in the Taros colors. This is the primary color palate dropped on, with nit-picky details and desert wearthing to come later. When fielded as a "Knight Paladin" he will have the Knight weapons and stand outside the Govenor's palace.






With modified kit CCW...






Kitbash CCW from GI Joe Sigma 6 Strike Duke set.



To maximize play value, I've begun to kit-bash WYSIWYG weapons to proxy this guy as a Warhound. The kit comes in at 8.5" tall, and the Armorcast Warhound is about 9.25" tall (with it's spikey back). A visually acceptable proxy that I can field in all my future Apoc games. Once you can't hide behind a building... it's a Titan.




Warhound option - kitbash Plasma Blastgun from FW piece scorred on eBay.


Warhound option - kitbash Infreno Cannon from GI Joe Sigma 6 Strike Duke set.




Warhound option - kitbash Vulcan Megabolter from GW Stormlord kit.





And then a few shots of my "construction" variant, with arms from the Kenner Ripley Powerloader. The Govenor's mansion is built into the side of a mountain, so I figure he'd need Tonka-Knight just for fun-fun-fun!





So, anyone elase get their's assembled and/or painted?? :?:
