I'll betcha if you can figure out a way to make one, than making two or more will be easier. There's been a bunch of posts from people making their own scratch-built titans all over this website, and probably on warseer. I'd do a search on both sites, then maybe google search for it. Personally, I'd rather have one amazing looking scratch built titan than multiple cheap looking ones. Still, good luck with your project, and I'd love to see pics of any finished titans.

Hm...
The toys don't work for me, but I honestly think toys can work brilliantly. I remember seeing a speed freaks force in White Dwarf with Tonka Trukks.
I think the problem is the scale of the detail work. The massive Forgeworld minis look just fine next to 30mm space marines because the gargantuan minis have the same level of detail.
I think that if you are going to use toys effectively, I think you ought to add more details. Cannibalize a Land Raider kit (or something larger) or even green stuff more details on (then paint the mini to bring that out). Finer detailing is needed.

Hmmm, not sure why.
Anyone else able to see it?
I know that the bandwidth sometimes gets exceeded at his site, but it is working for me still.

Site's working for me.
Ah, Barph's Warhound. I was trying to find it the other day to post a link to, but failed. Nice to see it again!
I remember when he first posted that transforming bike/dread too.

Death come silently. Apart from dying of anal prolapsing, that comes messily.
