Warhounds are as small as true titans get i'm afraid.
There were knight titans in epic but they seem to have been axed
A google image search throws up some 40k scale ones and there are some good ones made from the defiler kit.

Hope this helps.

Those are knight titans around the warhound and (so obviously NOT 6mm) SM.

One man titans carrying one big gun (like a battle cannon) and a single CCW (titan CCW). For variants, any Leman Russ tank main turret weapon would also be fitting.

BoLS has a set of apoc sheets with these titans (Armorcast did do a few of them, and the models are still out there).

People I game with are also using Starship Troopers 3 marauder suits as Knights (Punisher cannon + Inferno cannon is a common loadout), but we're not overly pushy on the "must use GW models" (besides, some of us also have the AC models ).

I'm OVER 50 (and so far over everyone's BS, too).
Old enough to know better, young enough to not give a ****.

That is not dead which can eternal lie ...

... and yet, with strange aeons, even death may die.

Bell of Lost Souls.

It's a blog.
http://www.belloflostsouls.net/2009/09/preperation-does-not-tournament.html

Rumour source and general gaming blog. They also do their own "Codices" (for the Macharian Crusade, Badab War, etc) and they put together a pack of datasheets for apoc covering many of the old epic units (some of which had 40k models courtesy of Armorcast).

Look for the "Lords of Battle" pdf for the knights. Also has the eldar phantom class titans in it (the Revenant is small compared to it).

Here's my take on the knight paladin if you're looking for some inspiration (8" high, so it fits the bill):

A Squeaky Waaagh!!

Legs are modified defiler claws, quite a few people use them for big robot legs. The arms are, you guessed it... defiler legs .

Check out Lemmingspawn's thread for some splendid conversions using these. There's WIP pics in my gallery as well if you want a clearer view.
