Subject: Imperial steampunk.... knight of rivets with some shapely legs...
the vader looks stunning mordain! we have a more common version of that torch... a red and blue simpleton sadly... would love to have a vader instead! good buy!
i tested the rockit launcher... man that is just a fun gun...but for killing muties it is not really worth a damn... died three times and then i said...fugg^^ and changed to regular weapons^^
anyway... i worked some more on the knight and the cardboard titan... so here is me showing you some progress!!!
first the knight... i measured it tonight standing as is and it is indeed standing 22cm tall... just as max so kindly provided us with the correct height requirements...
and here the first leg of the way bigger titan... on one pic a standard bearer for better scale issues...:
note, the toes will be later on covered with cardboard of course!
and just for your information... no i havent been drinking wine for all these corks... my wife got them from a parent of her work... she works in a nursery school and those cleints brought them from their restaurant to give it to her for creative use...stencils and other stuff...! ^^
Nice work, not sure about the cylindrical shape of the larger titan's legs, but I think some rivets will clear that up... and the banner bearer appears to be going "THAT *pointing* is not what the toes will look like!"

thanks shrike^^ well i got those tubes from my wife... she brought them with her some days ago... and i wanted to build something with them... i see angled legs woould probably be easier... well...
I mostly meant the foot, I was imagining it like a slightly chubby coffin shape, like the leman russ turret ^^
though the legs could do with some shin guards or some such...

i think i will add later on some kind of shin guard...the look as it is too bare for me too... as for the toes... and the footbase... it will be worked with... i need to cover the toes and make them attached to the foot too... there will be more mass coming up soon... it will generally speaking fleshed out!
and the toes wont stay in that rounded shape either....your idea of a more coffin shaped look suits me just fine^^
