As you will prolly know Ive been having a break from my epic modeling and doing some 40K stuff.
This is my new Epic project. A Squat Titan. Something the Squats always lacked which was a good anuf reason for me to build one.
This model is made from the 40K plastic SM Dreadnought. Its robust shape making it a perfect starting point.
The arms are from an Xabungle "DUGGER" model, a pic od which can be seen here...

The shoulder-plates are made from parts of a Bandai MSM-03 GOGG "anuva robot model"

More pics will prolly follow shortly :;):

hehehe excellent. I didn't think it was possible to crossbreed anime with squats, but you proved me wrong.

May I suggest the aquatic MS models gog, acguy and zock from the original gundam series for future efforts?

Kr00za,

Have you tried looking at clickie-tech Mechwarrior or other plastic things for pieces?

Some of the gollums and mechanical constructs would look good...  :D

Shalom,
Maksim-Smelchak.

Got any good links for that stuff?

This particular model was inspired by the Dwarfen Robot on the DreamPod9 website.
Im aiming to make this titans head look very simular to the one on the DreamPod9 banner.
Some cool things about this model are the poseable arms and I can also swap the claw for other weapons, so Ill most prolly make some.
It looks a lil like a gaint robotic Father Xmas at the moment! :D ?So maybe it can team up with my Snowman-like Mk1 GreatGargant :;):

Kr00za,

Look at the Whiz Kids page.

I think the URL is:

www.whizkidsgames.com

I'm not sure though.

Shalom,
Maksim-Smelchak.

Ironically enough I got into Mechwarrior because it was like a fast playing version of Epic- one can never have enough 5mm scale giant walking-robot killing machines. Mechs or titans- they all look good!!

Anyway the link is:
http://www.wizkidsgames.com/mwdarkage/figuregallery.asp

Cheers

Try looking at the golems and constructs in the Mageknight series.

Many hobby stores sell them in singles.

Kr00za,

You're welcome.

I keep eyeing the bigger golems, constructs and robots with ideas of making them into Epic Titans.

Shalom,
Maksim-Smelchak.

Very much so!!

Wizkids is the comopany that bought out the rights to Bettle Tech- Jordan Weissman was heavily involved at the start. Mechwarrior features a mix of old BT mechs/tanks/infantry plus some newer unthe its.

It set a few years after the split of FedCom follwoing the successiin war (4th IIRC). My main force is Swordsworn- a splinter faction of House Davion. I never played BT but a lot of my friends did and they got me into Mechwarrior.

However now Epic A has been released I find myself drawn back to Epic. I still play Mechwarrior but I don'y like the consequences of it being a CMG.

Cheers

James
