Adeptus Titanicus Legio Tempestus Warhound Titans - TO DONE

Legio Tempestus Titans for Adeptus Titanicus

Legio Tempestus walks! It's a great feeling to share seven completed titans for Adeptus Titanicus. I started out building an Axiom Maniple and ended with that plus a couple Warhound Titans with another Warlord waiting on the shelves and a third Reaver planned.

The four Warhound Titans have been a real labor of love. They came out well, even if it has taken me most of the summer to get to this point. Since the last WIP post, the bases were completed and some simple highlights painted around the sharper steel edges. here's how the bases evolved.

Legio Tempestus Warhound Titans for Adeptus Titanicus WIP - Bases

GW Tuskgor Fur was painted on first as a base coat. Once this dried, Secret Weapon Orange wash was used to shade the base coat and lend it the glowing martian red look. This can be seen drying below. I used a little GW Gryphonne Sepia around the feet to darken those areas.

Once the shade was fully dry, I applied Vallejo Ocre (I think?) weathering powder with Vallejo fixer. Once this dried the Model masters Lusterless Flat coat was sprayed liberally over all to seal the models. Now for the first time ever, I got some whiting on the base when the flat coat dried. Perhaps I didn't wait for the fixer to dry fully, dunno. But I corrected this by applying a final layer of pigment over the flat coat.

I didn't go crazy with the highlights. And edge here, and edge there just to spruce things up a bit. I'm pretty happy with the results. If it comes to past the we finally see a transfer sheet for Legio Tempestus (it has been previewed on the Warhammer Community site, remember) I'll come back to all of these titans to apply decals and update any final details and highlights. For now, this project needs to wrap up so I can move on to other things.

I'll close with shots of all four titans in the light box. I hope this journey through the four Warhounds WIP has been interesting and inspirational. I'm giving myself a big old stamp of DONE for this project.
