I have finally bought myself a War Hound Titan, mainly because of Cosmic and his 2011 Thread inspired me, I felt it was time to go Basket-Balls deep  I will be running the paint Scheame for the Legio Invigilata, Comes from the Voss Forge world which fits with my Voss Lightening, Hopefully x2 after this project. So exciting getting this box!   After washing everything bag by bag, I have finally started on the head which is in WIP stage.   |

OK, I'm quietly following the development here.
Hopefully my wallet won't notice what I have in mind.
Nice start with the crewman by the way.

Thank you Teku and RedCuffs! I'm on 12 hour shifts 7 days a week so it may take some small updates sadly. I have finally finished building the bottom half, it's been emotional trying to get the correct stance I wanted but I got there. I know the in thing is to have the titan walking or crushing something. I went for the more power stance, ready to turn you inside out.    I've also added a Magnet to be able to dismantel it easily and I was affriad it may topel off the legs.  Next is base coating the legs and finishing the inside of the Titan head. |

Bloody hell! This is coming together at an impressive rate!
A friend of mine has one and he said it was a total nightmare, how are you finding it?

She is starting to come togeather nicely, still along way to go. Building the legs wasn't too fun, Once I had worked on the position I wanted, it got better but still annoying. Now I've just washed the main body and dry fitting it togeather. It's too chunky to just Super Glue in place, Pining will be the way forward. |

Good work so far, especially the legs. It's very hard to superglue resin leg segments in place and still maintain a realistic pose; I'd only buy a kit like that in plastic as it's a more forgiving medium.

Thank you Nutty and Chem I researched other War Hounds, they had fancy running and crushing leg positions. I could have done that but I then thought no, I want a proper power house stance, so that's hopefully what I will pull off. I'm currently waiting on Magnets, so I can magnitize the Head and Arms. Easy to transport and change weapons out. Also I need a bloody base, so I have terrain on the way also. Current plan: Finish the legs and Head, then prepair and paint the inner body. |

Sweet! Definately makes me want to buy another though... I didn't know you had one too? They are a great challenge to do that's for sure. Did you create a base for your's? |

I think an Update is in order. So I thought I'd try a cool pattern on the back and this is what happend.  It was bloody hard trying to get the tape to fit how I wanted it to, a lot of stress and anger was released but I think it's the best I can do. I've also made a start on the pads too and the inside.  Currently, this is how the WarHound stands. I have pined the body area and used Green stuff for the area's that don't quite meet togeather. I still have some areas to sort out and also tidy up the inside too, not a bad start. Both Sholders are nearly done, again tidying up as I'm pretty fussy with the Red and White. I have Magnetized the head and starting on the arms now.      |

That's looking fantastic!
Loving the checked pattern on the back, wish I had your patience.
So do you have a name for her yet?

For the pattern, I cut squares from Blue masking tape (Which took for ever) then placing them to try and get them to line up in the best way (Which also took for ever) Two days later I was happy. He is names Spudicules or Spud for short, named after the Mighty one. The legendary tale states he battled Sheep and long horned Cows away from the Imperiaum of Man Below you'll see Spud mid-battle.  |

That is one mean looking machine what weapons did you end up getting for her/him/it? I have Plasma Cannon and the Punisher cannon looking gun, I'll get the Turbo Laser and the Flamer for Christmas. Thank for the kind words to all, I'm currently building a base for Spud the WarHound. The slight problem I have is the tighten is too front heavy, some strong Magnets should short that out. |
