Well some of you may have seen this already but I thought I'd share it with everyone here, as I'm sure you all like Titans.

Black Library has posted the artwork for Horus Heresy: Primarchs today, what appears to be the victory march at Ullanor. In the background we have Titans amongst the Legions marching past including what appears to be Mars pattern Warlords.

Sorry if the rear view is disappointing but hey its a start.

They look rather thrown together design wise.

I prefer JL's design, it kept design components of the Mars Reaver & Warhound not to mention the old Beetleback whilst modernising it. Add the big exhaust vents to these and I suppose they might look better.

I wouldn't consider these apparitions as significant of what FW might intend to do with them.
I'd be very surprised if Will Haye chose to go for that upsized SM2/TL paladin design.
