Can anyone provide me the dimensions of the parts where the Porphyrion's weapon arms connect to the hull? (been working on a missile pod for it)

Damn, sorry but my Porphies are all finished now.

Knights can always do with more bling!

Took me a while but finished these fellas:

Looking very nice, Zedmeister.

Time to get more Porphyrions then! And yes, the Knights could definitely use more bling!

Spoiler:

8,5mm outer 4mm inner at the edge, but it tapers inward (towards centre of torso when assembled).

edit oh hey found the opposing bit too. Taper is about 2mm deep, 2.4mm diameter at its narrowest. seems like a simple cone (minus top) otherwise. depth could be a little under 2mm, pretty sure about the rest.

You rule! Thank you so much for this!

...by the way you do know that if you put a weapon arm straight into that piece, you'll be missing the part that the pauldron glues on to right? Just asking :-)

Yup, I was aware of that, which is why I’m looking for some folks to test it out for me. The missile pod is finished, just needs to be printed and attached to a Porphyrion. So if anyone has access to a 3d printer and a spare Porphyrion, I can provide a free file

Oohh I'm up, drop me a link via PM! Porphy's only half assembled now but drop me a link and I can take pics on an assembled model probably by friday

So this happened...

I rattled out five titans to tabletop ready in three evenings of painting (add an extra day for building and priming) for a gaming weekend at the club I play at. Managed to go from 0 games of AT to 4 over the weekend, starting small and ending on a 3v3 3000 points per side deathmatch. Super fun and very keen to expand my force out

Speed painting titans isn't something I'd do again, and I have soooo much more work on my dudes before they're done.

So it's that time of year again, when I pull out my half-built titans and gaze at them sadly.



But this time might be different, someone at the club just ordered a large amount of AT with intent to play.

So now I'm scouring the books and deciding what to run...

Lord Blackfang, I'll be impressed if you only get those legs & bases done. Seriously, you'll feel much better when the opposition gets a chuckle out of Legio-"The Wrong Trousers".

The Legio

Legio Scortillum (Headless Chickens) walks!

I now have disturbing, but strangely enjoyable, visions of those warhound frames given those animated arms we keep seeing on birds...

Aaand after 4-5 years with these boxes in the basement I have my first game arranged!

Got a 1250 pts list done (blu tac is doing a lot of work here)

Plasma Blastguns and Vulcan Mega-bolters - my favorite Warhound loadout!

First game, loving it. I did do a board wipe. Movement phase is pretty lethal lol

That looks like an Awesome game

Nice looking game. Nice to see someone else who plays as much as me!

While not AT, I started a trio of Armigers due to the lack of them in AT and recently finished them...



I do hope that GW reconsiders them for a plastic kit for the Legions range, as I'd love to have smaller versions of them and maybe have a whole House-worth.
