Got the weapon banners done and fitted today. Really not sure I like them overall (I do like the waist banners) on Warhounds. Might like 'em more on the bigger boys. Moving onto a pair of Reavers next.

Those look absolutely amazing, tbh, but I think I agree with the gun banners.

First completed knight of House Coldshroud, been trying some stuff with grime:

nice

Can you give us a walk-through on how you do those bases?

I'm looking to do something similar on a LOT of Epic bases - I'm looking for a source of very fine colored 'sand' to use on the bases...

As always, Winterdyne, your models are a pleasure to behold.

Great to see another well presented Acastus, Albertorius.

I use a mix of playpit sand and fuller's earth cat litter. PVA it on, let dry, PVA and water to seal it on, let dry. Paint is Panzer Aces (vallejo) weathered (old) wood, agrax earthshade and athonian camoshade washes, applied patchy and blended out with water. Stones picked out in basilica grey contrast, whole lot drybrushed with panzer aces light mud. Some medium green clump foliage for greenery.

Needed more titan hunter infantry, went with armigers. The other strategems are home brew sam sites.

Ohhh, nice! I have half a dozen of those that I need to paint

where did you guys get the armigers?

I printed them myself, don't know about Crablezworth, but I can confirm it's the same one.

Had them printed. I'd buy them if gw sold them.

Same.

I really want to get some of them, do they have helverins as well as the warglaives? I searched thingiverse & shapeways and couldnt find any.

At that size one could make or sub the autocannons. Left over pieces from an Acastus or AI Imperial Fighter kits.

Thanks for that breakdown - appreciate it!

So, something like this:

I think I saw something, but they seem to have taken it down.

Acastus autocannons are very useful bits. I used some on my printed Epic dreadnoughts (in front and at the back).



As well as to make some Predators.

Oh my, those preds are so cwuuute!

Nice, got a few leftover autocannons, might try the tank idea.

Man...I really love those guns of the Predators!

They are just the best bits, I'll be building a few more in due time. The army needs more stuff.

...yes, it needs more stuff. It's not like it's already 8000 points or anything. Cough.



... just a few more, every now and then.

Me and my buddy's battlegroups:

Nice music!

Also, everything is very nicely painted too!

Especially the greens on the Reaver and Warhound - what green did you use there?

Loren forest, bit of nuln oil in some edges and then a second coat on some place.

They look absolutely boss

It looks great! I think I'll use it for my Legio Destructor Titans!

Is this a specific Titan Legion or one of your own design?

And as always, thank you for the info!

Danke, my buddy's fureans are really something to behold.

Been using stormlord's legio rules but haven't really settled on a name or anything. The next book is likely to have make ur own legio rules so sorta using tempestus till then likely.

A lot of the transfers are white so its easy to get some contrast. I just went for the generic titanicus symbol.

Some great stuff in here everybody - I love those hounds, Winterdyne, the grimy coldshroud Acastus looks very cool, and I'm enjoying seeing all the printed minis too.

I jumped into AT recently after resisting for quite some time. I'm doing Legio Metalica, with knight support from both Lakar and Krast (because they both fit and I thought they both look cool). So far I've built the two Reavers and two Warhounds from the starter box, and used Lancers to test my Krast and Lakar schemes, just because I've ended up with a good number of them. Today I've been weathering, applying some streaking grime and really trying to make them look like they've been slogging through this dusty desert for quite a while.



(Sharing more photos over in my P&M Blog, but didn't want to overwhelm this thread!)

Wow!

There is so much talent on display in this thread - I am well and suitably impressed by all of you!

Nice and dusty, Bellerophon. I like that subtle grime in there, too.
