Titanicus, Yew! Basing and planning.

Yo! I saw some awesome Epic scale 30k era vehicles and it took me a while to track some down through a friend of a friend of a friend kinda thing, now everything's in the one place and I've got a bit of mojo it's time to go (I've had all these kits built since their releases).

The vehicles I got are a bunch of wee Solar Aux stuff. 3 Leman Russ Incinerators, 2 Dracosan, 2 Arvus Lighters (I crashed one on the Warlord base), a Malcador and one of the Baneblade variants with the big plasma.

I've used up 3 on the bases so far and will mix the others into the scenery to help reinforce the immersion in the epic scale.

I just ordered a pair of Warhounds too so my next project is building them, the other Reaver and painting up the full 5 Titan Axiom Maniple with a side of Knights to give me pretty well an exact 1750pts to play.

I'll document the progress on here as I go along and some of the terrain work I do.

Cheers

Jackie

They look really detailed mini-tanks, but are they the original 6mm scale? The new AT is 10mm Scale I think, so these might be a little too small.

It's 8mm for AT and the vehicles are on the upper end of 6mm, definitely not exact enough if it was a scale model but with all the made up Warhammer shit and the variable perspectives of a battlefield, it's close enough. Makes the titans look bigger in any case anyway, I wouldn't have done it if the size difference was reversed as big vehicles and small titans would look pretty trash.

Mors Miles - The Death Knight - Legio Vulpa Maniple 13.

Next up, the Princeps Senoris of my favourite maniple style in the game, the Ferrox! Princeps Senoris Agdex is a lead from the front type homie. He has a flair for destruction and more often than not, his Assault Reaver Titan - Mors Miles isn't spared from copping it either. I play Mors Miles and it's matching counterpart Atro Messorum quite aggressively, often pushing the two up together then rotating the lead titan so they can share the damage taken before dishing it back out within the Melta half range. In the most recent event, Mors Miles was detonated in 2/5 games due to this play style but it created opportunities to take the objectives or for other Titans in the battlegroup to get the kill shots while also claiming quite a few engine kills of his own. Mors Miles - The Death Knight - Legio Vulpa Maniple 13. Princeps Senoris Agdex headed up a Ferrox Maniple deployed to Enterigar III from the helm of his assault Reaver - Mors Miles. An aggressiv...

Acastus Knight Porphyrion COMPLETED!!!!!

Acacstus Knight Porhpyrion, easily the biggest and most complex kit build and paint job I have ever done for a gaming miniature. I'm really happy with the result but the 60 hrs I spent on getting it finished kinda baked my noodle. I have no idea how the titan painters get through it! Anyway here are some studio shots, let me know what you think!

Hey Dudes, I don't think I ever chucked up a photo of this bad boy but getting and painting one of the new option heads was a good excuse to get some decent photographs. It's my favourite knight chassis but my least favourite head so I'm really glad they released some options. That's it for a while, we're up to date with what I've done now. I'm gonna set to making a gaming table and some terrain again and will continue to add some units to both the knight force and the Death Guard. <3 Jack
