He's put all the rear bits on the back though.

I think it looks amazing at the moment

LordRogalDorn, I did initially try the torso the other way around and I really didn't like it. I like how this way it almost looks like it has a chest. thanks for the suggestion though.

Progreen10 Cheers mate.

Since there are so many mixed feelings over the head Ive tried knocking out a couple of other designs I have to say I dont really like any of these but thought Id show them for some c&c






And just for s***s and giggles. These WILL NOT be used.

What about the bottom half of this one

Uhhhh! Thanks buddy, I wouldnt be trying this if it wasnt for you and the crazy Werewolf Titan Not much will be done on it today as its my birthday so I plan on getting rather inebriated. Will continue working on it in the next few days. Ive had another think about the head and I need to gather some parts for that.

Any of them look good. lol, you have spent most of the thread doing the head!

Happy Birthday!!!!!!

Wow, just wow. Awesome stuff man.

Yeah I know lol I am quite fussy though and the head is such an important part that I really want to get it right.

No hangover modeling?

Don't tempt him, man! He'll be of no use to us with too many fingers missing

Although I hope that Biohazard maybe came up with just the perfect idea for the head in his drunken stupor If so, let us hope he wrote it down

tipios wrote:No hangover modeling?

Only works if you're building orky stuff: no straight edges, no 90 degree angles, etc.

^^ what he said. Another few peopl ehave com e over so the party has started again. Hopefully Ill have a Titan head update on Tuesday if my bits get to me by then.

Im kinda getting withdrawelss from it as Ive been working on it so much lateky lol

Good to hear you're still alive...yet

One thing you might find amusing when you've sobered up again: Remember when you used those Defiler fingers as ears to make that over the top doggy head just for fun? Looky here:

Although that Titan is admittedly very cool. Here's the link to the rest of the site, in case you want to take a look. Found the guy on a German tabtetop forum:

Dooood!! Look up ^^^^^^^^^^

Ooook, it took me a while to see where I was going with that last post but I see now.
Thanks Kraut Ive seen that titan before in fact it was that very model that inspired my one. If you look back up a few posts you'll see bobpanda is a member here as well and hes commented on this thread ( )

I went into my LGS today and picked up a couple of paints/washes for the Star Phantoms im doing for the Badab War challenge over on Bolter and Chainsword. I also picked up something else that I didnt intend to.


The good thing is it means I can now make both of my chaos dreads claws the same. The bad is do I paint him up as a Worldeater or a Star Phantom?????

Good luck with the comp!!!

Thats why I can't go to my LGS, the wife will kill me if I come back with stuff I didn't go for

I blame Guitarasmus. Ive had a couple of ideas in my head for at least two more Chaos Dreads and was happy enough to wait and see what the new dreads might be like, but when he posted his Nurgle one last night it just blew me away and I wanted another dread now! Lol.

Star Phantoms? Nice. I've thought of doing some of those guys, too, but I keep telling myself to focus on the Fire Hawks. Good luck in the competition. Will you be posting pics here as well? I'd really love to see how they come out.

I never actually thought to post pics here as well. I might start another thread so they dont get absorbed into the WE though. Im working on the test marine paint scheme at the moment. Painting white is bloody hard lol

It's a bit like bobpanda's warhound titan.

erm...
dude, sorry I got there first!

You know in your heart that there can only be one answer to this question. *cough* Jugger head *cough*

In all fairness though, it'll probably be a fantastic conversion no matter what colour you paint it

Oh, and concerning GuitaRasmus: Don't go there, mate! The stuff that guy builds is off the charts

Any news of the Titan head, btw?

No progress on the head yet as the parts havent arrived. I will post updates here of course.
I knew Guitarasmus was gonna be trouble when I first saw his WE then he moved onto DG and just started to show off. lol

Tell me about it! The really spooky thing is that he managed to have exactly the same modelling idea as me not once, not twice but THRICE already! That wourlnd't be so bad in itself, but my models always end up looking kinda okay while his...well, you get the picture

Bitter? I'm not bitter?

Oh, did I mention you need to paint that Dread as a World Eater? In case I didn't: You totally need to paint that Dread as a World Eater!

Ok so Krautscientist votes Star Phantoms
Any other votes? It will be converted to have a similar head as the WE one but I think I might have a go at building a shooty Dread this time.

I just looked up Star Phantoms, I like the colour for the dread. I vote for that 2.

Oh, as you've got a ven dread, have you tried fittinf the mask inside so it's in the same position as the orignial? ort is the head to big?

If you're going for a shooty dread, then it should be Star Phantoms. The fluff for Star Phantoms suggests they leg long-range heavy-weapon devastators, so that would fit well.

Thanks guys Ive been away messing about and as I was cutting it from the sprue Id decided it would be Star Phantoms (sorry Krautscientist next month! ) and Yellowbeard youre right they prefer melta/plasma weaponry as well which could be fun. Im thinking of making it a kinda twin of the Chaos one. Ill use the CCW that I take off the Chaos one and may use the skull plate again but have it posed differently and obviously it will be covered in Aquilas and purity seals. The black/white looks good too.

Oh well, you can't win them all, I guess

Building a loyal Dread has one big advantage though: You're allowed to use all those fantastically detailed armour plates with all the names of the different campaigns, since it's a loyal Dread. It does even say Badab somewhere on there, right? When I had to cover up that detail when building my Chaos Dread, I died a little inside, since it looks so cool.

So there's a good side to your decision after all I'm sure the blood god will understand...
