Wanted to post a photo of my almost complete Warlord Titan. I've added a banner, and the base has come a long way tonight, but I wanted to see what you guys thought something like this was worth. A friend of mine wants me to build one for him, and I've seen them go for crazy prices online. What do you think a non painted version of this would be worth?



I want to do it, as these cost me almost nothing to make, but don't want to tell him a crazy number, either too high or low. What do you think something fairly basic like this Warlord style would be worth?

First off, it looks pretty good for a Warlord. There are no glaring flaws, the scale looks pretty good, and the weapons are decent.

However, I think that if you went the extra mile, made the pose a bit more dynamic, added some detail, perhaps made the head and cowling more correct sized, and worked on the shoulder weapons a bit, you could increase the value of it by a lot.

As for the price, I don't know what I would pay, probably not more than $100, but I think if you put in 30% more work you could probably sell it for twice as much.

True facts.

Its nice, but it not that detailed.

I'd say $150 - $200 though, theres some crazy people who'd buy it for that price.

I'd agree with the above posters price range. More if you really add a lot more details. I'm guessing if material costs aren't an issue you just have to mark up for your time.

Oh and awesome gaming room by the way.

If he's you friend, cost it up using materials + man-hours = price

Thanks for the advice guys!

I left my titans rather plan, as that's actually the theme of my army. I call them "The Nameless"; they're a legion that's just been spit out of the warp, with absolutely no memory beyond their training. They wear no insignia, and I've scratched off most markings except for the Imperial Aquila. They're basically a brand new legion that has no idea who or what their purpose is, and am letting their wins/losses dictate whether or not they're a product of the warp....

I'm probably going to start on a second one next week, and may start a thread about it here to take suggestions as I go. Thanks again!
