Nope.  They are full of extra bracing to make sure she doesn't collapse under her own weight (not that she is fat or overweight).  the large door on the back is for resupplies, often during battle.

Great stuff - any chance of a pic by pic conversion guide - rather important for all the titan lists if they are to get new players!

Well she is almost finished, just a few imperial eagles to add and some random projections from her carapace.

I might increase the length of her thigh, to make her look a little less dumply.

I have no idea how I made the Imperator.  All I know is that it used

an Imperator titan
two forgeworld reaver gatling cannons
two forgeworld MRL
two forge world hydra flak turrets
two GW TLDs (extended with plastic rods)
two flames of war tetrarch turrets
a sprue and a half of BFG imperial antenia (just visable on the dual TLD)
some forge world etched brass imperial eagles
and a whole load of plasticard, plastic rods and foam card.

Right I know how I built them.

Isabella's knight has
a tech marine servo arm
an =][=scale chain sword, with the arm being from the tech marine servo harness
the gatling cannon is a warlords gatling cannon with some green stuff to contiunue the armour plating on three sides rather than two.

God Bane has two warlord arms, with the gatling blaster of one replaced with a spare volcano barrel.  The carapace weapn is a warlord TLD mounted on a random cube of metal I had.

Brighid's chariot has two warlord gatling blasters an an =][= scale chaoinsowrd on atech marine servo arm.

The las burner on the fallen revaer is a tech marines plasma cutter.

Scion of ryza
the plasma destructors are metal space marine plasma cannons and the titan plasma cannons are two metal spacemarine plasma guns stuck together

Rightous prejustice's gatling cannons are from the land raider crusaders assault cannon.

Storm bringers arm MRL are from the FW reaver, his shoulde MRL is half of a cyclon missile launcher.  The landing pad is a load of plasticard and the spotter craft is a BFG system ship.

Castellum perdition's melta cannons are melta guns.
The inferno gun is a normal warlord arm with the barrel cut of and replaced with platic rods capped by the GW reavers LTD end of barrel thingy.
The fuel tank is from a landspeeders heavy flamer
and the head is the GW reaver head.

Forge guard
classic immortal body
orlock heavy stubber
pit slave chainsaw

I think that is everything.

Great stuff ragnarok! :)

Looking forward to seeing them all painted.

Re the fallen reavers... could you smack them with a mallet  to flatten them a bit maybe...? :D

Well I got back from spending a week with the folks and the first thing I did was to finish of my siege titan Castellum perdition.

He now has an oversized Corvus assault pod (built around a plastic Rhino) to go with his inferno cannon and melta cannons.  He also has a senic base with some trenches for him to step over.

Looking good. Personally I might have made it slightly narrower but that's just me. A brass eagle on the side would finish it off really nicely I think :;):

It was going to be a bit smaller.  But a bit og green stuff and a few layers of 0.5mm plasticard soon add up.

and it does have a brass eagle on the side, one of the plate ones.  Since its last photo I have added an eagle and a pair of air defence turrets to him, and under coated him as well.  I might even finish painting two or three of them before the holidays are up and I'm forced to spend my time teacing rather than having fun. :)

I have now finished paiting my support titan.  It took me ages to try to remember what colours I used for the camo and for the leg armour.  I've got it almost right. So I am now planning on each camo being slightly different in shading to represent them not all being in the repair bays at the same time.





now onto the rest of the legion. :)
