Engines Of War - Legio Vulpa And House Makabius Unite.

I got a couple more pieces done for Adeptus Titanicus over the weekend, 3 Cerastus Knights and the Warhound Titan [CANIS CALIDUS] join the stuff I posted up the other day. Legio Vulpa - Canis Calidus and Nuntio Dolores House Makabius Support - Unknown Scions I'm now in a wormhole of ivory trimming now though as I get the panels ready on 2x Reaver Titans, 1x Warlord Titan and the second Warhound Titan to match this one up. Vibing how it's coming along though. You working on some Titans? Let me know so I can come get hype on your blog. Thanks Jackie

Adeptus Titanicus - Legio Vulpa and House Makabius

Yoyo, Ive got some finished pics of my Warlord Titan, Nuntio Dolores, based off the featured titan in the Black Library Novel, Titandeath, released earlier this year. I actually finished it a couple of months ago but I forgot to upload photographs here.. I've also just put the finishing touches on a Questoris Knight banner from House Makabius (Same as my 28mm house) to join the big fella.

It seems I have a Horus Heresy Podcast?!

Hey gang, I've neglected the blog a bit lately but I've been doing a podcast called 'Echoes From The Wasteland' with a mate as well as a bunch of painting that I need to post up.  It's a very casual setup, it's pretty well all Horus Heresy 30k gaming and Adeptus Titanicus talk. It's available on all podcast platforms as far as I can tell and we have a Facebook page setup too. It's been fun to get it all figured out anyway and have something online that showcases a bit of what we have on locally. Yew! Jackie

Titanicus - Legio Vulpa Warhounds WIP

Ayo, Put a pin in the painting of the Warlord and Reavers to get these two built up so I can catch them up to the batch before I got too far ahead. There's a dude on Instagram called the Polysmith, I don't know if they blog or not but the converted 28mm Warhound they did just Knicks the posing right out of the park, it's by far the best Titan I've seen pose wise. I took heavy inspiration for the converted AT Warhound I've done from their works, it required cutting both legs into three sections, compressing one as much as possible and extending the other out to pretty well straight. I had to rebuild the pistons front and rear on the extended leg which leads into the feet, they were also pretty extensively modified, I drilled the pins out of each of the toes, trimmed them back and reposed them on a new pin made from styrene rod. I then remade the toe pistons with more styrene and some thin wire. I'm stoked on the pose, it really looks like it's on the go and w...

Adeptus Titanicus - Legio Vulpa Warlord and Reavers WIP³

Ahoy, I knocked out the purple panels for these 3 guys last night, next up will be the bone white trim and some chassis detailing with the airbrush before I start to pick out highlights and hit it with some oils. Cheers Jackie

Titanicus Legio Vulpa - Browntown

Yo, I pushed the contrast on the 'Rust' coloured armour plating further with a modulated orange pass to get it where I wanted it. The scheme on the wiki says rust panels with a bone coloured trim but I've seen a model at the open day where they did purple contrast panels and it looked alright.  Their whole scheme had a cobwebbing kinda look to it, I'm not keen on it over all but I've decided I'll do the steel wool marbling technique under the purple (grey scale with a clear purple top coat) so it kinda lines up if they go that way with the book art. Progress! Jackie

Titanicus - Further WIPs

Howdy, I picked out a team, I'm going Legio Vulpa now so I made a bit of a start on the brown just to see how it felt. I think the one forgeworld had on display features a chassis that was too bright so I'm going to keep mine quite dark with Tamiya Dark Iron as the base and some small highlights with a mix of that and Gunmetal. I also made some rock pillars to suit the scale and will rip up a few tiles of cork to make a Rocky outcrop that can surround the city terrain. I've gotta head down to the local hobby shop now and get some purple colours and a bit more masking tape then I can get onto the panel painting properly. The scheme for those that don't know is Rusty Brown/Red and Purple Panels with Bone White trim. The knights I will paint in House Makabius colouring. Cheers! Jackie
