LOL :D Yeah. Santa need to get in somewhere... :p

No it's mainly just to hold the turrets in place for the photoshoot. The idea was that the uper structure will look more like some sort of a bunker. The rear tower with the defence laser will be shortened further and the laser wil get it's own turret.

I agree on the leg bit BTW. I think it may be necessary to cut away large parts of the original leg to make it look right.

Dang you, WMN... you go and do a conversion like this and you make me wish I'd spent more time on my Imperator conversion!  :glare:  :devil:  :;):

Seriously, this is looking superb, I do have a couple of MK III Warlord Turbo Lasers to trade - I'm after a plastic Titan Quake cannon, dunno if you can help me out...

Anyway, keep up your great work!  :D

Legwork done. I've added the outlines for where the actual armor panels will be added in pencil. I was going to do that from very thin plasticard glued onto the existing frame. It's going to be one hell of a lot of work but the end result will hopefully be good.

Firestorm:
I might take you up on that offer ( i seem to recall having seen a quake cannon somewhere in a box) but I've also got another opption open. I'll get back to you soon though :;):

That is turning out to be incredible.
Yes very thin plasticard sounds good with legs.

Looking great, Warmaster. It's definitely looking like a big brother for the Warlord.  :D

WOW !!!  Great Work !!!  Are those Rhinos ?!  I may have to do something to my I-Titan's leg too now !  I already replaced the "Castle" on top (I posted pics before). As she's still WIP, but you have inspired me !  Again !  May add armor to cover those catheral windows, etc. ... Thank again, WMN !  U Da Mann !  :D

Yup. Rhinos seemed the easiest way to quickly build the rough shape I wanted and duplicate to 4 turrets.

Basic body shape is pretty much done so I started adding some detail. I am still considering different ways of building the feet but the end result should look a lot like the Warlord feet.

that beast is looking fantastic, but would have plastic terminator cyclone launchers made better turrets instead of the rhinos??

my only query, for the rest..... i bow down to thee.

Huh? Those ?are the regular Imperator feet.

Uh... those don't look anything like the 30 feet that I cast. ???

This implies an alternate kind of Imperator foot.

Got any spare feet like that sitting around? :)

Hehe, ah. Well the feet were cut apart when I got them. Doesn't realy matter since I'm going to rebuild them completely anyway.

About the cyclones: Possibly. Only I didn't have any of those around in my bitz box :;):
