Apocalypse Titan? Supposedly bigger than a warlord and, if like the nemesis, it'll carry near imperator level weaponry

I suspect the "shoulder" should be higher up and more to the left. But Tavis75 could be on to something with the beastie having a long torso.
The gyro stabilizer on the right of the picture is also up too high, should match the one on the left side
Good work to put it together though

I think it's too big to be a Rapier (unless it's the big scale FW one.....) but too small to be anything larger than Warlord. I've estimated this with the highly scientific 'squinting a bit' method and assuming that the AA gun on the back is a single-barrelled version of the one on the Warbringer.
There are mentions of a big ol' grab-bag of other Titans in the fluff, especially the black books. Most of them are just names though but a couple have more details. I think the Carnivore is described as a medium range battle titan around about Reaver size and the Mirage is a heavier battle titan.
My guess is Mirage, the space on the back holds some kind of battlefield command station and its a 'spell casting' Titan. Its maybe Warlord or Warbringer size, but shorter and wider. My 2cents.
I think that picture stitch is slightly off and its a lot bulkier than it appears. I think an extra plate has snuck in, you can see where the mars Cog is disrupted and the torso is slightly asymmetrical. Good on the guy who put it together though

If it is a bit smaller, could be a non-nemesis Warbringer, with battle titan scale plasma arms, and a normal carapace mount instead of the warlord scale one. Heavier armor for being closer range instead of walking fire support.

My money is on a larger-than-Warlord but smaller-than-Imperator new titan. It seems quite massive and reminiscent of this Jess Goodwin sketch

I think you're looking at 2 different Titans here. Biggest giveaway is that the Paint Job doesn't match. One is aboviously the Warbringer variant, the other could be a few things. So lets assume the obvious picture with the Red and Blue paint is the Warbringer variant, that leaves the dark coloured one.
Also consider which Armour plates they've used to construct it, given the plastic kits contain both Chaos & Imperial, they've used the Chaos ones. And we have an Imperial variant in the Psy Titan , could this be a Chaos one to balance things out?
But, if the Psy is Forgeworld, it's doubtful a dedicated Chaos one would be all plastic, and it's also doubtful that they'd showcase a resin one. Having said this, based on the sales of the Psy titan, they could have made the desision to do the Banelord in plastic. Even if you've an Imperial force, as a colector you'd want the Banelord.
Also consider the paintjob, similar colour to that of the Psy Titan, could it be a Reaver Psy?
Point is, there's not much here other than causing huge specualtion (which it already has). If I was a betting man, the 2nd Warbringer Variant.

Good catch, that torso armour definitely could be inspired by that sketch. In the same way a Warbringer uses Warlord-class weapons, we could see an in-between class of titan using Emperor-class weaponry.

The ‘blue’ on the blue and red one is just the bluey-black they use for Legio Mortis. It’s just the one Titan.

It's a knee plate that extends up to the hip area, as shown in the Goodwin concept art.

If the Titan is inspired by the old sketch(big if) then the the lower leg armour would go all the way to the upper leg, like armoured knee high boots with an extended front.

I'd bet that weird double skeleton underneath isn't present on the finished model, that just seems to make no sense at all, way too many ball joints. The other distinctive design cues are definitely from the sketch though.

Good memory there Mendi. Looks plausible. Not sure how heavy a class this will be..?
Could also be some sort of Warlord command titan. I remember the Legatus class was supposed to be a command titan

Probably around 10-15 year ago, someone on Warseer mentioned being able to quiz Gw staff at some point about the canned Codex Titanicus II from 1st edition and the contents. They let slip a few Titan classes that were planned but never made it. The Legatus was one of them.

Probably just the angle, it looks like a Warbringer without a carapace weapon. Once again, though, the arm weapons suggest a heavy hitter.

Further things occur to me. Those plasma weapons could be the updated plasma destructors - destructive potential equivalent to the imperator plasma annihilator but without the volume. Also, if there are no carapace weapons beyond the AA guns, maybe it carriers a carapace landing pad and/or fire control tower. Finally, if it is some sort of command Titan, it may be more of a force multiplier?

A good catch thanks to the collective mind, it seems the first post of the Jes Goodwin sketch was on a Discord group.
From the twitch streams I remember, they mentioned willingness to bring additional titan classes bracketing the existing Warhound - Reaver and Warlord classes. My guess is this one is just above Warlord size. It gives me the feeling it is massive, the extra armour would make sense for a slow one with big guns. The Warlord class Nemesis variants had limited manoeuvrability in the original game (which sadly I don't own), so might be something related or at least inspired by.
Quite curious to see what it will be.
In any case, I'm happy there is another titan joining the fray soon(ish?).
The only drawback I see with the layered armour plates is that there will be even more trim to paint ... oh God ... lol.
