small update, got the beat up earthshakers off ebay today, dismantled and will be cleaned up and painted before fitting inside the building, dry fitted to see if they look ok and fit, the bases i removed will make good circuit panals with some extra work for other parts of the titan, thanks for looking

Wow those basilisk guns look great in those windows, very cool idea. Subbed. Can't wait to see what's next

How tall will it end up?

thanks, once they are done and in place i can carry on witht the next level

painted up the basilisk guns and placed in building, also started to paint gold details, still got to weather them yet but just easier before putting guns in, thanks for looking

This is amazing.

I can't wait to see it finished!

This is still so freaking cool, blown away every time I check on this thread. Keep up the good work mate

Nice work as always.

fitted the supprots for gun arma and started to encase, also did'nt like the plain look to the joint ends on legs, so used some milk carton tops, cast some mechanicus symbols and added handmade rivets and like the end result much better, got a lot more tidying up on the leg and will be making some leg greaves, thanks for looking

I really like those knee caps so much!

I love this. You said it would be 1.6 metres? Nice.

This is the coolest build I have ever seen. Keep it up.

This is already looking far more Grim-Dark and in the spirit of 40K than the actual titan they released!

done a little bit on the leg tonight, the top leg joints looked very plain so made some backing plates from card with handmade rivets and a imperial eagle head

...Not hand made eagle heads, surely?

Wow, this is going to be amazing. Can't wait to see the finished product. Just curious how long did it take you to design it?

Love those stained glasses. Keep it up with your good work !

did'nt really sit down and plan it, a lot of it is in my head and made up as i go along, i do have a general idea of how it is going to look, i had seen several on various websites etc, only seen a coupke that where detailed enough for my liking and had always wanted to build one but with lots of detail, i had started building the emperors palace a coupe years back but gave up when i realised how big it was going to be so used all the building parts off that plus picking more on the cheap from ebay and cleaning up, also bought the guns that i am going to usefrom ebay, thanks for comments

high praise indeed, thank you

not had much time today so just made and added some mechanicus symbols to knee

let me tell you: the most impressive part is, that you stick to small level details. really awesome

This is looking great so far. I definitely want to see how you take it from here!

just a few bits today, finished the gold details on the main body and added some building struts which will also give some more support for the fortress base, started to put rivets around the knee joints

This is all looking very good, impressive stuff.

Been quietly following on from the get go (love the big scratchbuilds people do). Your work is top class and you have a good pace going. Keep up the good work as I want to see a finished Titan.

Out of curiosity are you gunning for it to be in scale to a 40k model?

thank you, as to scale was hoping too, there are so many differant views on size of titans on the web i'm just building and see where it gets me
