Subject: Re:Remote Control Heresy: a Motorized Chaos Warlord Titan (Updated 8 July)
Update: after a metric ton of mad science and the liberal use of my local library's 3D printer, the arm collar is in place and working! It's essentially a 4th-grader's solution to keeping the arm held up while not impeding its movement. But hey, I'm proud.

Thanks! The community's been super supportive this whole time, it's been great

Thanks much, that was really the hardest part of getting started: being willing to experimentally cut up an $1800 model

Long overdue update! Nothing spectacular in the meantime, but the carapace has been modded to fit, the shoulder guns are in place and working (if a bit shaky right now). I'll be out of operation for a few weeks while I hang out in San Antonio (hit me up for Kill Team if you're down), and start building the legs and base. Thanks for watching!

Additional updates, now that I'm back from a whole mess of travel. (And Valhalla, good times that). This is a quick rundown of the next step: the base and arranging the legs. Enjoy!

Happy Thanksgiving all around! Since it's been a while since an update, we're doing a 12-hour Livestream Hobby-thon on Saturday, from 8am to 8pm Central Time on the YouTube channel. Will be working on all sorts of projects and chatting with everyone who stops by, hope to see some of you there!

And more importantly, it didn't all come crashing down when I turned it on. Wins all around!

Thanks!
Next video clip is an explanation of the laser-engraving armor plates (Word Bearers runes!) and how to do it yourself, safely:
