Warmaster Update!
No pictures today, but hopefully some this week, but I've finally found the motivation to work on the Warmaster titan again. Did a large amount of Miliput gap-filling over the weekend and did sanding today. Should be ready to do the first primer coat of the frame tomorrow, then more sanding. For paint I'm thinking: metallic spray primer, wood stain (mahogany?), then dry brush a different metallic. @warhammer40k

Excellent work! Very nice job on the edge highlights, clean.

New Case, Who Dis?
So after hearing about those Jucoci miniature transport cases for so long, I finally saw one in the wild, and I must say they look very nice. All this to say, I now own a case that can actually hold a Chaos Knight army without playing Tetris to keep all the spikes from tearing each other apart.

@GrymEdm
Haha thanks! I'm terrified to think what this would cost if there was an actual Forge World model at this scale, but so far it's not bad - 5 spools of PLA for the FDM printer and I'm on the 4th bottle of resin for the detail parts.

Titanic Torso!
The titan's torso is assembled enough to get a glimpse at the final product and he's HUGE! For reference, the can of Zandri Dust spray primer is 7.75" tall and that chainsword is 14.75" long from tip of blade to bottom of powercell. This guy is a towering 22.5" tall and he doesn't even have his carapace armor, guns, or void shields on yet!

@setsneedtofeed @jontree255
Fully agree on both points!
Contrast paint is a game changer, I love sponging it over a base metallic to get a really nice "aged metal" look on large panels.

Porphyrion Prepared
If you've never seen one before, here's an Acastus Knight Porphyrion fresh out of cleaning bath to remove the mold release. This is going to be a big boy. That one hull chunk on the right is larger than the entire upper carapace of a Questoris/Abominant class knight, larger than a Cerastus as well by the look of it. This is why I haven't posted Titan progress lately.

Khorne Daemon Allies
Taking a break from the Titan (not really, the epoxy is just drying) to paint something a little different. So I went ahead and painted up a couple Khorne Daemons to be allies, starting with two characters. These were fun to do and were relatively quick to paint. I'm especially proud of the Skullmaster's sword.

@fleabomber
I'm glad that I've received so much positive feedback from the community. Next week's update I'll hopefully have some solid progress on assembling the torso.
@setsneedtofeed
Excellent job on that plasma glow!
@ALostInquirer
Possibly a hamster, but given that lab rats love driving cars it might be nice to give one of them a chance.

These Foots Are Made For Stompin'
And that's just what they'll do. Weekly progress update on the Warmaster Titan! The legs are fully assembled and posed. This is a BIG model. I'm fairly sure the sizing is within an acceptable margin of error based off the height chart GW put out. Especially given that the Knight has a waist extender giving it a bit more height.

@erikcats @warhammer40k
Glad you're enjoying it! I'll keep posting project updates as I reach milestones. Next one will be when the legs are fully together with the pelvis.
And believe it or not, completely sober when I made this crazy decision!
@Smbreiland @warhammer40k
Somewhere between 2.5 and 3 feet most likely. I'll get a full measurement once the torso is complete. I'm working on posing and epoxying the legs right now.
@Sir_Fridge
https://www.3dgloop.com/ ? I'll look into it, any idea what the working time is on it?

The Forges Move Forward
While the Warmaster Titan's torso starts on the printer, it is time that I begin posing the legs. I had to get creative with how I tightened it down to keep the Gorilla Glue's expansion from moving it out of the pose I wanted. This guy is BIG as seen by the the Bloodmaster by its foot.
\#hobby #HobbyStreak #40k #Titan #3dPrinting #miniatures #Warhammer40k #WarHamFam #WarhammerCommunity
@warhammer40k The little plate that goes up to the War Dog's waist is a TOE PLATE for the Titan.
@warhammer40k @3dprinting
I should be able to start posing the legs this week, then coming up with a plan for the base. In the meantime enjoy this picture of how massive the armor plates are.
@DanfothLaertes @warhammer40k
Thanks! I may smash it a bit more, but I don't want to take it too far.
@RightHandOfIkaros
The size of the foot is making that difficult, so I pivoted to just "general crushiness" but I still want it to visually translate.
@RightHandOfIkaros
These are getting crushed under a titan's foot as it steps on them, thus the sledgehammer to simulate weight at scale. I just can't decide if they need to be more crushed, or if this reads as "just stepping on to".
@warhammer40k
Oh! And just in case anyone asks - the containers are from the Dragon's Rest Outpost Origins collection - https://dragons.rest/products/sci-fi-scatter-containers

Crushed Crates
Hey there #WarhammerCommunity, I'm trying to make some basing for my titan and I need opinions. I 3d-printed these and then placed a sledgehammer on top before heating to simulate a crushed effect under the tread of the titan. Does it work or should I go for more?
@warhammer40k \#hobby #HobbyStreak #miniatures #WarHamFam #40k #Warhammer40k #3dPrinting
@setsneedtofeed agreed. Piper's done the majority of the T'au line and they all look fantastic.

Crisis Suits Incoming!
Since the Titan project eats up so much of the printer time, I have time to finish up some other projects that I've had sitting around. Here's a set of 3 Crisis Suit proxies that I'm printing for the group's T'au player.

A "little" Update on the Titan
One spool of filament down and we're up to the knees on the Warmaster Iconoclast. From the base of the foot to the top of the knee joint is 8.5 inches, so this is going to be a big one when it's done. Currently printing the thighs, which are a 25 hour print-job. Next update in a few days!

Activate the Forges!
I've been a little quiet lately, but that's because I've been getting this monstrosity prepared for printing. The voices of the Warp have spoken and they demand a vessel. Not just any vessel but a 40k scale Warmaster Iconoclast Titan. Yes, I have gone quite insane.
Does something this large even count as a "miniature" anymore?

Knight Tyrant Complete! Weather finally cooperated enough to allow for varnishing of 'Sardonic Feculence.' All that was left to do was to apply some Blood for the Blood God and Nurgle's Rot technical paints to achieve a suitably blood/pus-filled look. Next on the painting desk: 'Slaughter's Serenity,' my Khorne Knight-Castigator. 'Death of Duty' is short! @warhammer40k @Bluesheep

Custom Skullmaster on Juggernaught
Just an update, but I reposed the rider and gave him a sword! I'm pleased with this one compared to the "surfer" motif I originally posed... that and it hides the terrible sins I had to do to the model's hips to get this pose working.

First Attempt At Decals
Okay, so that's a bit of a lie. I've done decals before but it was longer than I care to admit ago. Anyway, they process: decal in water, water on model, decal to model, allow to dry, MicroSol on decal, smooth decal, allow to dry (repeat if needed), matte medium on and around decal, shades to blend and make grungy. I think it turned out great and wasn't too much fuss.

Holiday War Dog Party!
Happy Slaaneshmas 40k fans! This Holiday season I've been working on a mini-pack of Moirax-pattern War Dogs. These are held together with blu-tac right now, but I'm happy with the results. I need to use clay to smooth out the basing but they're ready to prime when the weather cooperates.

Cheeky-Pose Coldstar Commander
Took a small break from the Chaos Knights to build and pose this Coldstar Commander for my buddy's T'au Empire army. He offers peace with one hand and destruction with the other. Please don't ask me what it's armed with, I don't think even GW really knows what T'au guns look like.

More progress on the Nurgle Knight Tyrant! I won't finish it completely tonight, but he will be far enough along to attend Tanksgiving tomorrow at the local GW. Still to do: trim on the upper carapace; gun housing stuff; so, so much oozy goo; and hide more Nurglings around the frame!

Another Executioner and a Brigand assembled and table-ready. I have a few more bits and bobs, small details really, to take care of before I'm satisfied with them.

Nurgle Knight Coming Together
I buckled down and did more green-stuff work today. I think the Knight Tyrant is almost ready for priming (we'll see if the weather agrees). I also tried the PVA + superglue trick to make some 'fleshy' bits to blend the tentacles to the chassis, I'll need to see it primed to find out how well that worked. @warhammer40k \#hobby #HobbyStreak #40k #Warhammer40k #WarHamFam #WarhammerCommunity #miniatures #ChaosKnights
