Looking good AFAICT. Any chance of a slightly larget pic?
Are those Cyclone Laynchers for the Rocket Launchers? They look ace. Almost makes it look like an old Battletech Timberwolf.

Any thread with titans is a good thread. I really like the rocket launcher conversions. Look forward to seeing larger pics. Laters |

thanks for the commnets, im trying to lay my hands on a propper camera...(namely pestering my mate to bring his next time we decide to have a beer and boardgames night) so hopefully ill get better pics soonish. but one question iv been asked is if i intend to camo the 'hardtop', currently they are simple green with highlights  (GW catachan green basic). would a camo patter work on these things or just look silly? plus any ideas on a appropriate one, currenly all my camo patterns are copied from real life, so would they be too complex for a warlord and reaver 'hardtop'?

I think it should be easy enough to copy the camo directly. After all it is a large plain surface once you get down to it.Shading and highlighting is a bit more tricky though: The round curves just don't present many natural places to add the highlighting. This could potentially make camo schemes a bit messy if you try and do a lot of smooth blending on a complex scheme. I think there's a couple of ways to work around this problem: 1: Disregard shading altogether. A zig zag style camo which would contrast with the actual shape of the model and perhaps draw attention away from the missing shading. 2: Disregard the shape of the model: Add blending and shading that doesn't follow the natural contour of the model. This would actually be pretty effective camo in real life as it confuses the shape of the titan, producing shadows where there is none etc.etc. Then again a crisp and precise paint job without any shading and highlights would probably work too. I'd pick a 3 color camo for this sort of thing. |
