War Hound WIP

[Brother Meredith]

I think this predates the 28mm scale Predator by one issue. The Predator is not in the early Adeptus Titanicus vehicle rules.

They were playing with a turret and sponson conversion in the issue that introduced the plastic Rhino kit.

Just have the weapons and the head to finish now. There’s more I’d like to do but I’m under a bit of a time crunch. I have to have this guy done by the weekend for a vehicle battle on Saturday

Looks good. Do you just free hand all the art?

Yep, I doodle the skulls on a bone white background and then sketch them in with watered down black paint. Next I do two highlights and one shade near the black lines. I blocked in the flames first in white then yellow. Really watered down orange in a couple of thin coats to give the fire a warm look.

Super impressive!! Stunning freehand. 😲

Cheers! It’s been fun sharing the progress with you peeps. I have to think of a name for this beast. Any suggestions?

There are some who call him . . . Tim?

 

[weazil]

Love it. I love the idea of someone taking their titan down to Mars Custom Tanks’n’Titans to get tuned and pimped out. Totally want to build a piece of scenery for that!

Anyway, I’d call it “Gundog” if it was me.

 

[Brother Meredith]

Capitibus Flamma?

 

[Jaq Draco]

Great suggestions so far I like the Latin. It’s fun translating them. But so far I haven’t been able to translate ‘Tim’ into Latin if anyone could help…

Wikipedia says Timothy means "one who honours God"

 

[Brother Meredith]

“qui Deum honorat” or should that be “Quis Deum Imperatorem honorat” 🧐

 

[Jaq Draco]

Head is done!

Head is done!

Nice work. Looking forward to seeing it assembled. Have you measured everything for balance or are you gluing it to a base?

 

[Fimm McCool]

Aaaaah yeah! Stunning work!
