The hero the city needs.

@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.

@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.

@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.

@jontree255
Going for a kind of xenomorph look?

@Sir_Fridge
https://www.3dgloop.com/ ? I’ll look into it, any idea what the working time is on it?

@setsneedtofeed
Fantastic work on that model!

@warhammer40k @3dprinting
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.

@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

@setsneedtofeed agreed. Piper’s done the majority of the T’au line and they all look fantastic.

@setsneedtofeed
Nope! These are from PiperMakes.

@vladmech
I’m using an Elegoo Neptune 3 Pro at .2mm for the structure and I’ll be using an Elegoo Saturn at 0.05mm when I start the armor panels and other detail bits.
I’m trying for a balance of speed to detail.

@Rooki
Thanks! There’s still lots of sanding and gap filling to do, but I’ll wait until the legs are completely printed before I start on that.

@setsneedtofeed
I haven’t decided that yet. Each plate takes about a day to print and the legs alone are 7 plates. So far the only misprint has been a giant spaghetti disaster.

@setsneedtofeed
I’ll give it a look! I plan to post another update in a few days, it takes a while to print each part, and I’m playing it by ear as I go, so there’s misprints here and there.
