con anyone tell me where I can find the dimensions of the FW warhound titan?

Anyone?

Friend of mine picked one up recently. I haven't got exact measurements, but you're talking somewhere between 10"-12" tall depending on how hunched you assemble the legs, and probably somewhere close to 8" wide at the shoulders.

Those are just my visual estimations though, so allow an inch or so in either direction.

Thank you, this exactly what I was looking for, BUT, does anyone have these measurements(if you only have a few, post them):
Torso length, width and height, leg height, shin height, head length, head width, and some pics if you could be bothered, thanks

I'm pretty sure if you find the correct "paper-hammer titan" and dedicated a couple of days to it, you'd have a reasonable representation of the scale of warhound titans

As Poda said, I believe the paper warhound has the correct dimensions. You should be able to print out some of the base pieces and extrapolate the dimesions without even building it

From the Forge World Website...

Lucius Pattern Warhound Titan body which can mount up to two Lucius Pattern weapons. This model stands approximately 250mm/10.5 inches high depending on how the legs are constructed. The model includes full interior detail. Master Model by Will Hayes, crew sculpted by Simon Egan.


A extremely detailed model of the Mars Pattern Warhound Titan. This model stands approximately 250mm/10.5 inches high depending on how the legs are constructed. Master Model by Will Hayes, crew and symbols sculpted by Simon Egan.

Going by the 10.5" height and pictures, the width would appear to be anywhere between 7" - 10" depending on how the legs are positioned.

whoa whoa whoa people. These measurements are putting it at 30cm tall, about ten space marines, WTF? the war hound is heaps bigger than that, right? I mean, come on. right? right?

but, but...
ok...
so that puts the legs at about 15 cm tall, or ten?

remember, there's also the issue that things look bigger vertically than they actually are. Warhounds are not that big, and in a well-written story, they chew through their ammo frightfully quickly. They leave a giant smoking creater or twelve when they are all said and done, but, the ammo drops quickly. It's part of the reason they hunt in packs, and why they are always deployed as scouts, not front-line titans. That job is usually relegated to the reavers and to some extent the warlords. The warlords are siege-breakers, and the imperators are the all-mother doomsday must-kill-everything-three-times device. There's also another class of titan that's between the emperor and warlord in scale, but heavier armament than the emperor. The problem is that those things also have damnably near no shields, and for that reason, are also rare. (and hated in the cannon, and hence probably the reason for which they've been forgotten)

well their goes all of the math lessons ive spent on designing this thing, *sigh* back to the drawing board. again, legs 15 of ten or what?

Best thing you can do is print out the paper plans on card then build that as a scale prototype I did that then built with plasticard
