Greetings and welcome back. The Warhound titans are coming together, and can stand in their full regalia now. The Warmaster is idling as I get these two done. It deserves some 1-on-1 attention and it's been a challenge to batch paint all three.
I quickly sorted out the botched leg armor and got everything repainted. Then I finished the gold trim and attached all the leg armor to both titans. That left me with almost fully assembled titans! Next came the bodies, carapace armor and heads.
The body "skeleton" was dry brushed to match the legs. Then I finished the rest of the gold edging on the carapace and body armor panels. Next, I spent some time on the heads. Nothing too fancy on these two. With all the basic colors blocked in, I attached the heads to the bodies and glued down the carapace armor. with that dry, I glued the bodies to the legs and voila! The two engines walk! The arms of these two Warhounds are magnetized so it's easy to pull them off and paint them. That's coming at some pointsoon, I promise.
Now we can walk around these two and get a look at the various panels. These two Warhounds will sport just the minimum stripes on the leg armor. There are plenty of other stripes across the battle group!
Never let the enemy get behind your titans...there's just not much here to see! 😂
And there we are. I'm going to clean up the red armor and add the transfers. Once all that is done, I'll gloss coat and shade the titans, then get on with the highlights. At some point I'll paint the weapons - likely while waiting for various stages of painting the bodies to dry. Also, bases. I have the bases with name plates attached. I need to add some ground work, then prime and paint those before the titans can be attached for the final Mars weathering process. The final matte sealer coat will remove the gloss. I haven't done a gloss coat prior, but I think I'll have an easier time with the shading so I'm giving it a try.
Hopefully I'll have these moved along nicely for another post by end of week. It's been a bit slow around here lately, I know!
Stay safe out there.
Cheers and Happy Gaming!
That's a really nice red you've got there, it reminds me of the 2nd Ed. Blood Angels. Good luck with the final stages!
