Hi!
The parts for the phantom though made great proxies for a necron titan. Especially the torso that looks skeletal.
I really need to get a picture of it for you guys....

Well, I think a new Eldar Titan would be something to look forward to. But I imagine it will be years before we see anything ... hope I live that long !

Hi
I must be in the mminority then. As I prefer the Epic 40k era Eladr Titan to the earlier ones. The AT era Eldar titans were just too spindly to be war machines IMO.
If anyone has any of the newer ones I am sure I can find them a good home!!
Am intrigued by the prospect of new Eldar super heavies/titans. Carl- are we likely to be surprised good or surprised bad???
Cheers
James

| Well, it's subjective and I am sure some will find something to complain about, no news flash there, but 'I' was personally bowled over by the complete re-designs.
I would say 'surprised good'. They are quite a departure from their previous looks, but you will just have to wait and judge for yourselves as I am sure tastes vary.
For obvious reasons I'm not going to go into any details, so please don't ask. All I will say is Jez did the detailed concepts and a great deal of thought has gone into them.
Regards Carl

Without giving away any confidential details would you say they reminded you more of the AT era Mk1 Eldar titans or the E40k era Mk2 ones?
Or are they a completely different look?
Cheers

Quote (wargame_insomniac @ 03 2004 Feb.,18:19) | | Like Carl, I dont want to say too much, but I can add that the new Super Heavies are being sculpted by FW's master whittler - Will Hayes. Martin Footit is doing the Revenant & I'm not sure on the Phantom/warlock yet.
I know Mr Hayes has some fans on the boards for his previous work, and I personally think it can only be a good thing to have him onboard for E:A models.
Whilst I havent seen the miniatures yet (I believe the first masters were due last week) the concept sketches I have seen look great.
I'm booked for painting the Studio pieces next month - I'll try my best to get permission to post painted previews, but I cant promise anything & suspect Fanatic will want to get the first showings on their site.

Mmmm.. I definitely agree, if what we get is remotely as good as the stunning stuff he produces for FW -Epic and 40k scale- I'll be very happy indeed!
