I now present you with what I hope will someday be the Emperors right hand of Justice, the Heavy, the Destroyer, the Deathdealer, but for now, I shall call him… Scooter. Scooter’s an Imperial Mars Pattern Warhound Scout Titan. He’s armed with a Vulcan Mega Bolter (VM
and a Turbo Laser Destroyer (TLD.) What’s that you say? The Mars Pattern Warhound only comes with a Vulcan Mega Bolter and a Plasma Blast Cannon (PBC)? Well, yes, but when your buddy is ordering a Jackal that gets his choice of weapons, you get him to order a VMB and a TLD and then swap him the PBC for the TLD. Keen huh?
Here’s the official certificate. If you can’t read it, it says, “The Fabricator General has decreed that your army may deploy the might of a WARHOUND TITAN. May your weapon be guarded against malfunction as your soul is guarded from impurity. The Machine God watches over you. Unleash the weapons of war. Unleash the Deathdealer.”
Kinda gets ya all tingly, don’t it?
Here are all the main pieces. Note: always make sure you’ve got everything before you start. Having to proxy a leg halfway through the project would suck.
The Head
The Torso
The VMB. It’s a BFG.
This is the part that kills me. These are all the bits. Top row: The feet, the toes, more toes, and God knows what. Middle Row: Pistons, little pistons, big pistons, and bitz. Bottom row: I have no idea, probably more pistons, and power cables.
OK, are you freakin’ kidding me? This thing has more loose ends then OJ’s alibi! Holy Crap! I distinctly feel a sense of dread and intimidation falling over me.
Ok, I will now be spending the next week cleaning off mould release, mould lines and injection points. That last point is going to require a dremmel and a saw. Oh, and look at this little warning here: Caution– inhaling resin dust will kill you, dead. –oh joy.
Wish me luck.
