That is excellent when all 's said and done mate.

Have you thought of a Cthulu style head for the Titan?'

Awesome so far.

Face Tentacles as in Pirates of the Caribbean style perhaps?

How about a standard trooper for some scale comparison in the shots?

All in all, very nice job!

Started on a Head........

Will keep the Tentacle idea, cheers for that guys.

Going with the original head of the Reaver because the other head made it look too much like a Small Warlord.

Outstanding! Thanks for sharing.

If you get a chance, some other shots would be cool.

Also, consider adding lots of hangy things, like chains, ripped banners, hoses, and other such dangly things.

great work, but im not that big a fan of the eyes on the titan. They look out of place, especially in the head, it looks fine from the front in that respect though.

I liked the idea of half mechanical and half biological and bulgy eyes are what nurgle is all about! lol

The eyes aren't doing anything for me. Instead of white, maybe yellow (pale, probably)? Cat's eyes in the front? Bloodshot? All should be some fairly easy fixes, and I'd think would really benefit the model.

Yeah been painting a few to see what thay will look like.

I'm not too good at eyes so i'm practicing before going to the main thing.

Just brainstorming... what about like "eye stalks" emerging from the current eyes? Perhaps several per socket? Simply make the eyes smaller (and thus slightly easier to paint) Good luck!

Ok. I'll say it. The eyes make it look like a Muppet. A really sick, disgusting, and disturbing Muppet, but a Muppet nonetheless.

Someone suggested cats' eyes or something. Try a yellowish sclera, and work from a small pupil. The iris can be large, but you want to paint it in different colored lines radiating from the center, not just a black spot on a white ball. Search the web for pictures of human or animal eyes, even colored contacts or prosthetic eyes. You've done an awesome job with this beast, and the Muppet eyes are just, well, they're just wrong.

This site has a fairly close up picture of a gator eye. http://www.istockphoto.com/file_closeup/object/4098983_aligator_eye.php?id=4098983. Pretty much the whole visible eye is iris (you can see the edges as a dark ring). Check out the membrane on the left side, and the ridge at the top. That would look cool on the titan.

Maybe even a parasite on one of the eyes. There is a type of copepod which preys specifically on the Greenland shark. It attaches itself to its eye where it spends the rest of its life, eventually blinding the shark. Pretty much every Greenland Shark has a pair of these guys.

Alternately, turn the eyes on the carapace into pustules and have nurglings or plague bearers climbing out of one.
